Summary

Well this is an proof of concept so to speak. Not really a thing ;-). What i do here is generate scad files. I was playing with that thought for a while now. Because its a bit strange. I use one programming language (action-script 3.0 and flex in my case) to generate the other.

In this case for the polygon method within openscad witch is powerfull but hard to read. So a made the visual helper for generation polygon call with a bit of extrusion

Weird but it works what do you think mad or mad science ;)

The small air app does not have any undo functionality and you can only draw on a grid, it was just to test something maybe i will add stuff to it ? should i ?

Thanks for the great response but a bit of warning is in place the fxp source code is, well.. how do is say it.... very sloppy ;-) , just so you know build it 2 or 3 hours or so ( hack hack )

Still working on it but not ready for its first release :-(
Some hints

  • Layers (one layer is one openscad module) each layer its own color
  • Adding and Deleting of Points and of course Moving points Splitting of segments
  • Curves (Maybe)
  • Save files (some json or xml) so you can save your work
  • Web based and AIR app
  • Etc Etc ;-)
