Thanks for the reply! Would you accept a PR for first-class support for specifying constraints between variables (and object measurements) as part of the language or would that be divergent with the goals of the language? I find it to be an important part of SolidWorks etc. because often times I'm trying to build something where I know one of the dimensions is constrained a certain way but that's not how I'd parameterize the object. And I don't want to be doing math for e.g. calculating the diagonal over and over again as part of calculating parameter values or modeling constraints, I like that in Solidworks that's part of the package. I believe this issue is important to other mechanical engineers as well. However I do want to say, great work, I think a programming language is a great step forward for CAD regardless, and this project seems to be pretty well done! |

To save time up front I would suggest doing a bit of design work. Feel free to make an issue and post things like example code snippets of how you would like to see this work. We can work together to make this feature a reality.
