OpenSCAD has only a single kind of number, which is a 64 bit IEEE floating point number. In addition to decimal numerals, the following names for special numbers are defined: Numbers are the most important type of value in OpenSCAD, and they are written in the familiar decimal notation used in other languages. Values can be stored in variables, passed as function arguments, and returned as function results. Values and data types Ī value in OpenSCAD is either a Number (like 42), a Boolean (like true), a String (like "foo"), a Range (like ), a Vector (like ), or the Undefined value (undef). Myvar = 10 // The rest of the line is a comment Comments are not evaluated by the compiler, and should not be used to describe self-evident code. Operator() operator() Ĭomments are a way of leaving notes within the script, or code, (either to yourself or to future programmers) describing how the code works, or what it does. This script is a free format list of action statements. OpenSCAD is a 2D/ 3D and solid modeling program that is based on a Functional programming language used to create models that are previewed on the screen, and rendered into 3D mesh which allows the model to be exported in a variety of 2D/3D file formats.Ī script in the OpenSCAD language is used to create 2D or 3D models. The text in its current form is incomplete.

Then when the release version of v18 came out and I installed it, those “temporary” shortcuts from the release version of v17 were automatically migrated to v18 and showed up when I started using the non-Beta version.Īt least, I think that’s how it happened. Then I spent some months where I was doing all my SU on the v18 beta, so of course that was a parallel, vanilla installation and didn’t have those shortcut changes. I finished my experiment, but I forgot to put things back. I had been working on something where I had been trying to do a kind of free-form follow-me, moving a surface with push/pull without a path, and I had “temporarily” changed the two tools I was using alternately, Rotate and Push/pull, to be under F2 and F1. Then, in a classic case of “Where’s my … HERE it is!”, after I stopped wrestling with it, and maybe after asking for help, the answer came to me while lying in bed: Greetings for now, hope it is useful…Jakob. One good idea, is, to “Swap” the “Z” to: “Zoom Extents”…īrings you “out”, If you get: “Lost” In Model"… I even made a “keyboard” in Excel…to “See” where stuff is.(3D memory). My example: “W” is “Wipe” for hide(wipe) rest of model… (toggle)Īnd “Alt + W” is Hide(wipe) similar… (toggle)ġ sorted by Name: (what did I choose for “Top View”)Īnd 1 is sorted by Shortcuts: (what does “F8” do?)īoth have the full path, as extra column: “Camera/Standard Views /Top” Remember shortcuts in “pictures or memes”… Put as many shortcuts, as possible, near the left side of keyboard My example: Thumb on “Ctrl” + index on “A” for “Select All”. Let 2 fingers of the left hand do the 2 key-button clicks: My example: “X” for: “X.Ray On / Off”…(a toggle function) Have most used shortcuts, as “One key”-single clicks…like Sketchup do Let the right “mouse”-hand do the creative stuff. Nice to have the same shortcuts, when they demonstrate and you pause and try. I collect shortcuts… from people I follow on You Tube…“Sketchup School” for example. Meme: G for: Group as component… Alt+G is for: Group as group. From Sketchup: “G” is “Make component” ( in right click menu)
