Cannot move bodies from Group node to parent Part node

Hi there, not sure if this is the right forum (found a link to here in https://github.com/realthunder/FreeCAD/issues/362 ), but here's something odd I found working with Realthunder's link branch version: I have a App:Part with a Group (App::DocumentObjectGroup) child, with PartDesign Bodies child n...

Re: [Solved] Cannot use named sketch constraint in expression

Body.Document.Sketch.Constraints.L1 which doesn't work either. I am surprised that it works with the numeric index. The value expression Body.Document.Sketch.Constraints[1].Value references the named constraint "D1" in Sketch in document b, and gives the correct value in the python consol...

Re: Cannot use named sketch constraint in expression

At one time I have tried pointing to the link (in another document in an assembly) in a macro maybe it will work for you as well?? I guess that I did the same in the Python console. The data structures are there, but it seems that the expression interpreter that processes a property value expressio...

[Solved] Cannot use named sketch constraint in expression

Hi there, I frequently use named sketch constraints in expressions, like this: Sketch.Constraints.L1 This works fine if 'Sketch' is in the same document. But if that sketch is in a linked document, it fails: Link.LinkedObject.Document.Sketch.Constraints.L1 Result: No attribute named 'L1' I could use...

Re: Dump Objects macro requires changes

Thanks for your quick response! I'll try to get the permissions and then make the changes, as pointed out. However, a clean port to the current versions of Python and Qt could really take some time - I currently have absolutely no experience here (I'm a Windows/DotNET/HTML/JavaScript guy). But that ...

Dump Objects macro requires changes

Hi folks, I stumbled during my first steps with Python. The macro https://wiki.freecadweb.org/Macro_Dump_Objects needs some changes in order to run in the current FreeCAD version. In a was/is format similar to diff: Line 14 (inserted) import math Line 115 .has_key .__contains__ Line 214 f1 = 15*scre...

By default the space bar is a shortcut for the Std_ToggleVisibility command. You have to change that shortcut to achieve what you want. See Std_DlgCustomize.
That's definitely worth a try! Thanks Roy!

Re: Version 0.20 Placement task panel stops updating 3D window and other findings

Finally found what went wrong: When I switched back to the Freecad window, I did that apparently with a mouse click in the 3D window --- which de-selects the current object in the model tree. So the dialog simply doesn't know which object to "work on". As a result, the dialog looks non-fun...

Version 0.20 Placement task panel stops updating 3D window and other findings

Hello folks, I am testing version 0.20 of FreeCAD and found some strange things. Let me start with the "Placement Task" panel: When opened, changes in the value fields are immediately reflected in the 3D window. The Pard Design Body moves and rotates relative to the origin of its parent Pa...
