#File: Ex018_Making_Lofts.py
#To use this example file, you need to first follow the "Using CadQuery From Inside FreeCAD"
#instructions here: https://github.com/dcowden/cadquery#installing----using-cadquery-from-inside-freecad
#You run this example by typing the following in the FreeCAD python console, making sure to change
#the path to this example, and the name of the example appropriately.
#import sys
#sys.path.append('/home/user/Downloads/cadquery/examples/FreeCAD')
#import Ex018_Making_Lofts
#If you need to reload the part after making a change, you can use the following lines within the FreeCAD console.
#reload(Ex018_Making_Lofts)
#You'll need to delete the original shape that was created, and the new shape should be named sequentially
# (Shape001, etc).
#You can also tie these blocks of code to macros, buttons, and keybindings in FreeCAD for quicker access.
#You can get a more information on this example at
# http://parametricparts.com/docs/examples.html#an-extruded-prismatic-solid
import cadquery
import Part
#Create a lofted section between a rectangle and a circular section
result = cadquery.Workplane("front").box(4.0, 4.0, 0.25).faces(">Z").circle(1.5) \
.workplane(offset=3.0).rect(0.75, 0.5).loft(combine=True)
#Boiler plate code to render our solid in FreeCAD's GUI
Part.show(result.toFreecad())
