someone should merge this one

hi @Misca1234 as far as I can see, these models are not correctly fused. can you please look into that?

[Misca1234]

How can they be incorrectly fused ?

Correct FreeCad tool used
Correct plugin used
Pressed available icons
Copied step and wrl files unmodified

[Shackmeister]

this is what I get when opening the step files

@Misca1234
sometimes FC makes an union of parts internally, but when exported as 'step' they explode to many...
This is tipycally due to an OCC issue with coplanar faces.. a trick that most solves is to slightly make your parts have a common volume instead of a tangent surface

[Misca1234]

If you click on the other "legs" you can see that they are different distinct part of the model, for example, Leg001_sp011 is the dot
Leg001_sp015 is the lower left segment

Do you want me to try to create a .step file with the original names in it ?

[easyw]

@Misca1234
you need to fuse all the parts to make a single unioned STEP file
HDSP-7507_7807_fused.FCStd.zip

[Misca1234]

Now, tell in which step of these two where it is possible to make them single union step file more than using the buttons in the macro

[easyw]

the sequence you did should be good... but the result may depends also on your FC version and OCC version you used...
From your STEP file you should have a Open CASCADE STEP processor 7.1, which means you shouldn't be on the latest stable release:
Version: 0.17.13519 with OCC version: 7.2.0 (those latest 7.2 have some improvements in unioning co-planar surfaces)
PS remember to rename the unioned object as the STEP file name.
PPS (EDIT) I tried also with an old release with OCC7.1 but I can make a union that remains unioned also after been exported...

[Misca1234]

Let me try Freecad version 0.17 11223

I know, but i was told last autumn to use this release becosue of a bug in later releases in the step export code.

I have remade the models now

[Misca1234]

by the way, I did a git push to the upstream instead of the origin, which means the main master do have an invalid branch, is possible to delete the other one ?

[easyw]

If you stay on stable 0.17 13519 you will be fine now

[Misca1234]

poke

Hi @Misca1234 it appears like all the step files are called "Fusion_sp" inside the file

[Misca1234]

Oh, that old problem, let me fix it

[Misca1234]

I can see that a lot of my old .step files already in the library have that problem but none of those in this push ?

I can make a separate push to fix it inside the ones that already have been merged.

[Misca1234]

@Shackmeister
None if the step files is called Fusion_sp inside or you could perhaps elaborate of what you mean ?

looks nice :) thanks for the contribution :)

[Misca1234]

@Shackmeister
Man, merge it ^^

[Shackmeister]

Tried yesterday but it didnt work :P

[Misca1234]

Github got some problems for 18 hours ago and was not solved for 12 hours ago so I guess it was that who prevented the merge
