Description

The Std MergeProjects command adds the contents of a FreeCAD file into the current document.

Usage

  1. Select the File → Merge project... option from the menu.
  2. Select a FreeCAD file in the dialog box.
  3. Press the Open button.

Notes

  • A project cannot be merged with itself, selecting the current file is not allowed.
  • FreeCAD will automatically change the internal names and, depending on the preferences, labels of objects to avoid name conflicts.

Preferences

  • The last used file location is stored: Tools → Edit parameters... → BaseApp → Preferences → General → FileOpenSavePath.
  • Duplicate labels are allowed if Tools → Edit parameters... → BaseApp → Preferences → Document → DuplicateLabels is set to true. This setting can also be changed in the Preferences Editor.
