<ohsix> wanted for tabs today, having different models to switch between without multiple instances
<ohsix> :>
<ohsix> drilling down into a linked assembly from a context menu or something would probably work ok

<whitequark> yeah
<whitequark> unfortunately that's extremely hard.

<GitHub> [solvespace] whitequark commented on issue #315: It's not anything easy to fix. It's a known issue with the NURBS backend. The workaround is to use mesh. https://github.com/solvespace/solvespace/issues/315#issuecomment-367752818
<GitHub> [solvespace] wavexx commented on issue #315: One can dream. Is there some sort of master issue no. to track NURBS issues?... https://github.com/solvespace/solvespace/issues/315#issuecomment-367783474
<GitHub> [solvespace] whitequark commented on issue #315: Not really. Fixing the NURBS backend is a many man-years problem requiring the sort of highly specialized experience that cannot be easily contracted out. At least, I wasn't able to find anyone with a set of skills even remotely approaching what's required to make the NURBS boolean code robust. Even if I did, the SolveSpace project does not have the sort of budget requi
<GitHub> [solvespace] wavexx commented on issue #315: Some time ago I was also looking into this, and stumbled upon your question here: https://softwarerecs.stackexchange.com/questions/27546/a-c-nurbs-library-with-boolean-operations-that-is-not-opencascade... https://github.com/solvespace/solvespace/issues/315#issuecomment-367791043

<GitHub> [solvespace] wavexx commented on issue #315: OCC is only marginally more complete, but even more geometrically unstable than solvespace. cadquery would be incredibly powerful if I could do *any* actual solid using it. https://github.com/solvespace/solvespace/issues/315#issuecomment-367792506
<GitHub> [solvespace] whitequark commented on issue #315: Yeah, the OSS NURBS situation is a disgrace. I wish I could use SDFs, this would solve so many problems... but the cost of killing STEP makes it a nonstarter. https://github.com/solvespace/solvespace/issues/315#issuecomment-367793173

<GitHub> [solvespace] wavexx commented on issue #315: Not arguing with this, I agree. Just to explain my line of thinking: for anything more than a hobby/small project I currently revert to commercial software. https://github.com/solvespace/solvespace/issues/315#issuecomment-367863416
