Hello, I updated openScad to 2016 because of the rotate_extrude( angle) parameter, i use FreeCad to convert the design to .stp file. Here is what i encounter as a problem please find the image below, It behave as af the angle command was not given in FreeCad <http://forum.openscad.org/file/n20384/Capture1.png> <http://forum.openscad.org/file/n20384/Capture.png> . Is there a workaround for this problem? Thank you. -- View this message in context: http://forum.openscad.org/Error-exporting-a-angled-rotate-extrude-to-FreeCAd-tp20384.html Sent from the OpenSCAD mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

I can’t think of any smart workarounds, except not using features which are unsupported by FreeCad. -Marius

You can try this attached userspace implementation, I've used it for thingiverse customizer, which is on older version of OpenSCAD not supporting angle parameter. I don't know what freecad reports its openscad version as, so you can replace the line "angleSupport = ..." with "angleSupport = false;" in the attachment to ensure it uses the fallback operation.
