Render a PartCAD object or a CAD file to a 2D image - PNG, JPEG, SVG or DXF - from one or many viewing angles (front, back, left, right, top, bottom, iso, or an arbitrary direction), with `pc render` for an object a package declares or `pc adhoc render` for a file that belongs to no package. Use for /pc:render or when the user asks to render, draw, screenshot, preview, or produce an image or projection of a part, sketch, assembly or CAD file, or to see it from a particular view, or to draw an…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# pc:render Produce a picture of a shape: a 2D projection, in `png`, `jpeg`, `svg` or `dxf`. `$ARGUMENTS` says what to render and, often, from where. A render is not a conversion. It writes something to look at, not geometry another CAD tool can go on working with — that is `/pc:export` (or `/pc:convert` when the object should *become* the new format). The viewing angle only means anything here. Two commands do it: - **`pc render`** — an object a package declares. Reads the package's `render:` configuration, so the object is drawn the way the package publishes it. - **`pc adhoc render`** — a file that belongs to no package. PartCAD wraps it in a throwaway package, writes the picture, and deletes the package again. ## 1. Work out which case you are in Do this before running anything. It is the same first step in `/pc:convert` and `/pc:export`. 1. **Is there a package?** PartCAD searches upward for `partcad.yaml`, so look in the current directory and above. `pc --no-ansi list` lists what the package holds; if there is no package it says so. 2. **Does the reference name an object?** Check it against `pc --no-ansi list parts` / `list sketches` / `list assemblies`. …

How to install
mdr add partcad/partcad/render@sha256:71bc74c866e97892The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261013.d8e94ea, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
