This past week marked the merge of a feature that’s been in development since October: the ability to apply a tangency constraint to a line segment at B‑spline knot points. In addition, the B‑Spline knots themselves can now be constrained as any other point in Sketcher.
Developer Ajinkya Dahale has been working to develop this new feature as part of the B‑Spline Constraint Project. Many thanks to Ajinkya, as well as to Sketcher Lead Maintainer Abdullah Tahiri, for their hard work on this project.
The B‑Spline Constraint Project is funded in part by the FreeCAD Project Association Development Fund (FPADF). If you have a project you are interested in undertaking and are want to apply for a grant to assist in your efforts, read more about the FPADF here.
