RoadMap: Planned Features
==============================
**CadQuery is not even close to finished!!!**
Many features are planned for later versions. This page tracks them. If you find that you need features
not listed here, let us know!
Workplanes
--------------------
rotated workplanes
support creation of workplanes at an angle to another plane or face
workplane local rotations
rotate the coordinate system of a workplane by an angle.
make a workplane from a wire
useful to select outer wire and then operate from there, to allow offsets
Assemblies
----------
implement more constraints
in plane, on axis, parallel to vector
2-d operations
-------------------
arc construction using relative measures
instead of forcing use of absolute workplane coordinates
tangent arcs
after a line
centerpoint arcs
including portions of arcs as well as with end points specified
trimming
ability to use construction geometry to trim other entities
construction lines
especially centerlines
2-d fillets
for a rectangle, or for consecutive selected lines
2-d chamfers
based on rectangles, polygons, polylines, or adjacent selected lines
mirror around centerline
using centerline construction geometry
midpoint selection
select midpoints of lines, arcs
face center
explicit selection of face center
manipulate spline control points
so that the shape of a spline can be more accurately controlled
feature snap
project geometry in the rest of the part into the work plane, so that
they can be selected and used as references for other features.
polyline edges
allow polyline to be combined with other edges/curves
3-d operations
---------------------
rotation/transform that return a copy
The current rotateAboutCenter and translate method modify the object, rather than returning a copy
primitive creation
Need primitive creation for:
* cone
* cylinder
* torus
* wedge
extrude/cut up to surface
allow a cut or extrude to terminate at another surface, rather than either through all or a fixed distance
