Dear Keith,

I was very impressed with the capacity of the FreeCAD GDML workbench. Although I am not an expert in programming, I see great value in it for novices like me in GEANT4. Do you have GDML example files that we can use to learn? Your help is very much appreciated.

Hi Gamel

There are some samples on some of the Wiki pages.

(Note: As the FreeCAD file extension is not a supported filetype you have to remove the extra txt)

  1. Array : Example of use of Array · KeithSloan/GDML Wiki · GitHub
  2. Revolved : Examples of Revolved sketches · KeithSloan/GDML Wiki · GitHub
  3. Sample Array of Parts · KeithSloan/GDML Wiki · GitHub
  4. A test of an Assembly · KeithSloan/GDML Wiki · GitHub

Somebody has prepared a paper and some sample YouTube videos which we hope will be published shortly once they have passed a final review.

We are in the process of collecting a set of test files created with the GDML workbench that can be used in future for automatic testing of code changes - These could also be used as samples

The Repro is at https://github.com/KeithSloan/FreeCAD_GDML_Test_Collection

Note: files maybe added or removed from this set in the future
