Combining all isolation geometries into one geometry object
I would much prefer that the isolation command would create only one object containing all of the isolation passes. This way I can produce the complete CNC object in one step. My current workflow entails to join the geometries of all of the passes, delete the passes (for better plots) and then produce the CNC object and save it. Joining the geometries and deleting them afterwards feels like a waste of time. As Juan says, it should be an option keyed off a checkbox in the UI

reporter I got you. This worked. A quick question: is the FlatCAM_GTK subdirectory obsolete?
-
repo owner Yes, it's obsolete. I'm just keeping it there for reference. I migrated from GTK to Qt long ago. But I still think it's a good idea to keep it around just in case.
-
repo owner I just saw your comment in the forum. Are you still having trouble with that?
The UI was coded by hand. So, not QtDesigner stuff! I sub-classed several UI components and using an UI design tool does not lend itself well for inheritance.
Let me know how it goes. Thanks.

reporter No I am good. I did the basic code (check box and code that goes with it and code that implements the feature). I am not wondering about the settings page. It would be nice to be able to set the default like other values. Also I need to look into the TCL command to pass the value as well.

reporter I think I am all done. I am going to do some more testing, sleep on it and I will push it to my fork tomorrow, time permitting
-
repo owner Please resolve if fully tested.

reporter - changed status to resolved

Some guidelines:
ObjectUI.py
. The UIs for specific kinds of objects are defined there.
