Description
This tool produces a clone (a copy that is parametrically bound to the original object) of a selected object. If the original object changes, the clone changes too, but keeps its position, rotation and scale.
How to use
- Select objects you wish to clone
- Press the Draft Clone button
Properties
- DataScale: Specifies an optional scale factor for the clone
- The result of the Draft Scale tool is also a clone
Scripting
The Clone tool can by used in macros and from the python console by using the following function:
clone (obj,[delta])
- Makes a clone of the given object(s).
- The clone is an exact, linked copy of the given object.
- If the original object changes, the final object changes too. Optionally, you can give a delta Vector to move the clone away from the original position.
Example:
import Draft
Draft.clone(FreeCAD.ActiveDocument.ActiveObject)
