First of all we will have to remove all electronics parts from the board leaving only the connectors and the board outer contour.Īfter removing all unnecessary parts we can export our drawing in SVG file format, and then import it in TkinterCAD.
By using the negative space we will hollow our case and create ventilation openings in our case.Īfter opening DXF file in LibreCAD we will get quiet detailed drawing of the Raspberry Pi board. The holes will remove any solid material within their shape.
For example, you can create a box, which represents a solid, positive shape, and you can also place holes or openings as a negative shape. To scale the shape uniformly in all directions, hold the Shift key while draggingĪ TinkerCAD uses the positive and negative space concept. Almost all operation in TkinterCAD can be done with mouse.īy using shortcuts you can significantly improve your design workflow. NOTE: Selected points will change their color from white (unselected) to red (selected). The same operations can be performed in the object properties field. As a result you can perform most object operations with the mouse, and by adjusting the greed unit size you can easily change the object seize and position with the mouse dragging operations, without having to type in the size field. You can select any object with LB and by using object handles it can be scaled, moved or rotated. Left Mouse Button - Click the left button ( LB) to select an object while you click, you can drag it too.īy using shortcuts you can significantly improve your design workflow (see Image).Middle Mouse Button - Press the middle button ( MB) to move the model left or right.Right Mouse Button - Press and hold the right button ( RB) and move the mouse, you will spin around in the workspace.It will even be more efficient if you use the scroll wheel mouse: To select multiple objects you can hold down Shift while clicking on all the elements you want. You can also use the plus and minus to zoom in and out. The same result can be achieved with keyboard buttons - the four arrows will spin your model left or right and tilt it up or down. To move around TinkerCAD you can use the navigation tools in the top left corner – you can click each face with the left mouse button (LB) to activate it and by clicking on the corners of the cube you will access standard orthographic and isometric views, or you can hold LB and move the mouse to navigate in 3D space.
