Action

AddToGroup

Add an object to a group.

Move

MoveByVector

Move a FreeCAD object by a vector. You have to plug a Dynamovector to the Vector receptor!

RemoveObject

Deletes an object from the FreeCAD document.

Rotate

Rotate a FreeCAD object. Center coordinates are the origin of the rotation, axis is the main axis you are rotating around, degree is the degree you want to rotate the element.

RotateByVectorAndPoint

Rotate a FreeCAD object around a Dynamo Point and a Dynamo vector. See MoveRotatePartCubes.dyn in Examples folder for real life usage!

The point is relative to the element you are rotating! So if you rotate around a point which is at (0,0,0) it will rotate the element around its origin!
