One file is is for the 1 pin connector, the other file for all connectors from 2 pins to 12 pins. The number of pins can be edited via a spreadsheet.

On branch Conn_JST_XH_AM

  • Changes to be committed:
    • new file: Connector_JST.3dshapes/JST_XH_B1B-XH-AM_1x01_P2.50mm_Vertical.FCStd
    • new file: Connector_JST.3dshapes/JST_XH_BxxB-XH-AM_1xXX_P2.50mm_Vertical.FCStd

If you prefer to have one source 3D file for each connector type instead of one parametric file, please let me know.

Here are some examples (1 pin and 10 pins):

Thanks for your efforts to learn the library and 3D model scripting and create so many families of models recently!!

For easier tracking in the future, can you go back and add the script update PR to each of your PRs in this repo? I assume you have created PRs for the script somewhere at https://github.com/easyw/kicad-3d-models-in-freecad, or perhaps somewhere else at GitHub. If someone needs to make any updates in the future, being able to find this PR and then just right to the script will be helpful. Thank you!

As far as I can see, there is no script, but different FPs are creating by changing parameters in a spreadsheet within the FreeCAD file.
Is that correct @MountyRox?

@chschlue Yes its correct, i created the different models by changing the Number Pins (nPin) parameter in the spreadsheet.

With scripting i am not familiar at the moment. May be its useful to learn more about scripting. As i stated in the PR, i can submit a discrete FreeCAD file for each connector type, if you prefer this.

No, it's fine the way it is.

Just note that your models may be replaced with scripted ones in the future.

Can anybody give a hint where i can find more information to learn more about writing Python scripts to generate 3D models?
Thanks a lot.

I found the very good CADQuery documentation, a lot of new stuff to learn 😓😄,
however if someone has another helping hint, he's welcome.
