Macro Circular Text

Description
This macro makes use of the Draft ShapeString tool to create a text line placed in different circular orientations, including circumferential and helical in the manner of Trajan Column]. It can also be used to create a clock face with Arabic numerals 1, 2, 3, etc., or Roman numerals I, II, III, etc.

Description

This macro makes use of the Draft ShapeString tool to create a text line placed in different circular orientations, including circumferential and helical in the manner of Trajan's Column. It can also be used to create a clock face with Arabic numerals 1, 2, 3, etc., or Roman numerals I, II, III, etc. This latter usage was inspired by the Forum thread Macro to Create Clock Face by cblt2l.

texte 360 degrees

Utilisation

Principle: The options that are not useful for the selected function are dimmed so inaccessible.

A function can gray out options if they are not for him.

Launch the macro folder FcString for created characters and a file FcClock for created clocks.

All the characters are and remain independent. When creating extrusions nothing is deleted. If Compound is created with Run Comp is copied out of the folder.

The options are shaded by default and are active in all functions if they are checked :

  • Extrude Char.
  • Placement.
  • SP. inclination.

Except for one Clock Service Placement box Z is activated and moves the text in the direction Z to place the text on the support surface.

Presentation

Overview

GUI

First section

  • TextEdit window that lets you copy the text to display (click on the Reset allows to know the number of the input string that is displayed in the window title)
  • The Reverse to reverse the text
  • The New Font to select a new font to use
    • Default ARIAL.TTF

Second Section

Configuring characters in FCCircularText

First zone

Your choice :

  • Mode Stand or Mode Flat : The text will be placed standing or flat (same as clock) options Outdoor and Indoor are reversed.

Second area

This section allows you to configure the overall behavior of characters in all the choices available but with some variation. If the command is not used in the option chosen, it will be grayed out.

  • Radius of circle : Radius of the circle. (Default 10)
  • Size character  : Character height. (Default 2)
  • Begin angle  : Starting angle of the first character in the circle. (Default 0 °)
  • End angle  : Angle end of the last character of the text. (Default 360)
  • Correction angle : Character correction angle to make it tangent to the circle. (Default 10 °)
  • Correction radius: Fixed the radius of the circle characters (optional). (Default 0.15)
  • Pivot Character : Pivot the character on himself. (Inactive Default)
  • Extrude Char  : Checkbox extrusion characters. (Inactive Default)
  • Placement  : Text placement in the 3D view. (Inactive Default)
  • Sp. inclination  : Inclination of characters in three axes X, Y and Z (example to cover such a cone). (Inactive Default)

Outdoor

Default mode. The text is written on the outside of the circumference of the circle.

Indoor

The text is written on the inner side of the circumference of the circle

Helix

The text is entered on the outer circumference of a helix.

  • The helix area is grayed out by default.
  • All characters configuration options are available.
  • Step of helix which corresponds to the pitch of the helix turns and displays 2 (character height) by default.
  • Char. per turn activates and displays 10 by default, which corresponds to 10 characters per helical turn.
  • If Step of helix (helix pitch) is zero, Spinboxes Base Helix and End Helix are activated.
  • Base Helix provides the basis for starting the helix (even Placement Z). If 'Placement Z' is different from zero, the starting point is added to Z Placement
  • End Helix End of the helix pitch of the helix will be calculated relative to the height and the number of characters per helical turn.


Clock

The figures are part of a circle with Arabic numerals or Romans.

File:FCCircularText 12.png
  • By default, the section is grayed.
  • When the selection is made, the following functions get dark and are usable:
    1. Begin angle.
    2. End angle.
    3. Correction angle.
    4. Correction radius.
    5. The buttom Mode Stand or Mode Flat.
  • The area Clock is activated.
  • Radius of support : If a value is given, support will be created (default 0).
  • If Support number face is different from zero a support is created. (If Extrude support = zero then a face is created).
    • 1 = A circle is created (circle appears).
    • 2 = A rectangle is created (length = (Radius of media * 1.5) width = Radius of support) (Rectangle appears).
    • 3 = A triangle is created (circumscribed) (Triangle appears).
    • 4 = A square is created (Radius of support) (Square appears).
    • 5 = A polygon with the number of faces displayed (circumscribed) (Polygon appears).
  • Extrude support is activated and an extrusion dimension can be given.

  • If Support number face is equal to zero there is no support.
  • Mode Roman : The writing will be in Roman figures I II III IIII V VI VII VIII IX X XI XII
  • Axial  : The figures will be written axially.

Commands

  • Exit  : Leaves the macro.
  • Reset  : Reset all values and displays the number of characters displayed in the window.
  • Run Comp : Launches the macro and creates a Compount object of all characters.
  • Run  : Launches the macro

Launch the macro folder FcString for created characters and a file FcClock for created clocks.

Little bug

It is possible that two characters overlap, here a small remedy with Macro_Rotate_To_Point


(not fully developed)

Planned :

Writing on a path circular text of position object selected.

(PS : it is possible that an error is made between version 2 Please wait for the next or return to the previous version thank you)

Currently:

       carDegrees = b' \xc2\xb0'.decode("utf-8")    #thanks wmayer	https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=36380&p=308476#p308357
       self.DS_InclinaisonX.setSuffix(carDegrees)
       self.DS_InclinaisonY.setSuffix(carDegrees)
       self.DS_InclinaisonZ.setSuffix(carDegrees)

replace the line

for angleTr in range(debut,rotation,((rotation-debut)/nombre)):

to

for angleTrFloat in range((debut*10000),(rotation*10000),int((round(((float(rotation)-float(debut))/float(nombre)),4)*10000)) ):    # pour 4 decimales
                angleTr = (float(angleTrFloat)/10000)
  • ver 0.10 17/05/2015 adding lines 1365, 1366 only created more clock face ?? ()
supp.MakeFace = True

  • ver 0.9 11/05/2015 thank you NormandC for testing

replace

self.DS_InclinaisonX.setSuffix(" X°")
        self.DS_InclinaisonY.setSuffix(" Y°")
        self.DS_InclinaisonZ.setSuffix(" Z°")

to
