Recurring Mitcad (mitcad) errors, by impact

  1. 1A mitCAD import of an Inventor design via FreeCAD turned hole features into plain geometry, losing diameter, depth, and counterbore type.MCAD · Agent failure · 1 report66
  2. 2A user says switching to MitCad would be easier if it could write .FCStd, so they can still use FreeCAD's FEA and other features MitCad does not have.MCAD · Agent failure · 1 report66
  3. 3importing a .f3d file into Mitcad dropped every constraint in a sketch (including dimensions driven by parameters and formulas) because of one or two bad constraints in it.MCAD · Agent failure · 1 report66
  4. 4MitCAD fillets on the same import failed with no error, produced self-intersecting geometry, or broke the timeline when an upstream sketch changed.MCAD · Agent failure · 1 report66
  5. 5The part shows fine on screen, but editing the CylinderPlate sketch shows no edges and no holes, so the user can't change the hole size they needed to change. The import gave no warning. Geometry came across, design intent didn't.MCAD · Agent failure · 1 report66
