Cut Object for Magnets Macro Release Notes

Version 0.6.1 (2026-01-12)

Release notes for changes between v0.5.0-beta and v0.6.1.

Added

  • FreeCAD Addon Manager metadata: Macro now includes standard metadata fields for better Addon Manager integration
  • FreeCAD Wiki page: Official wiki documentation at Macro Cut Object for Magnets
  • Example images: Added screenshots showing the dialog and example output

Changed

  • Version tracking: Version now managed via __Version__ metadata field instead of inline comment

Fixed

  • Ring-shaped objects: Improved handling of inset point calculation for hollow/ring-shaped cut faces where the inset point could land in the hole
  • Code formatting: Minor cleanup for consistent code style

No Functional Changes

The core cutting algorithm, magnet hole placement, and collision detection remain unchanged from the beta release. This macro is stable for production use.
