I see no difference in behavior. The cloned part has the same color as the original one Create a Part_Box . Change the color of some of its faces with Part_FaceColors . Create a Draft_Clone . Result without the workaround: the clone does not display the correct face colors (DiffuseColor). Although ...

Thank you. I'll have a play with this.

Code: Select all

    objects = doc.Objects
    for obj in objects:
        if obj.TypeId in ("App::"):
            pass
        else:
            doc.removeObject(obj.Name)

I don't think this can work. Are you sure this is the correct code?

It seems that ci/gitlab/gitlab.com is not triggered anymore. Is this a known issue?

You get this warning when the document contains more than one Body, and the selected subelement does not belong to the active Body. You need to activate the correct Body first. See PartDesign_Body#Active_status.

I think this is the related code: https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD/blob/588f2d50e4e108299a754e5c229cdc396342d2dd/src/Mod/TechDraw/Gui/AppTechDrawGui.cpp#L79 Note that there are other fonts already available in the FreeCAD package: \bin\Lib\site-packages\matplotlib\mpl-data\fonts\ttf But maybe thes...

I fully agree that workarounds should be avoided. But in this case a workaround helps fix an almost 5 year old bug (issue #5765). I can create an issue for the DiffuseColor update issue if that helps.

The partial code issue should be solved now. The piping characters were indeed to blame.

Thanks again. I can't get this to work though: obj = Draft.make_clone(box) if App.GuiUp: from PySide import QtCore i = 0 def process_events(self): QtCore.QCoreApplication.processEvents(QtCore.QEventLoop.AllEvents, 10) while i < 10: i += 1 _msg(str(i)) QtCore.QTimer.singleShot(100, self.process_event...

Thanks you! That can indeed work. My first try (a bit cryptic, but so is the DiffuseColor workaround): if App.GuiUp: diffuse_col = [(0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 0.0), (0.0, 1.0, 0.0, 0.0), (1.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0), (0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 0.0), (0.0, 1.0, 0.0, 0.0), (1.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0)] box.ViewObject.DiffuseColor = diffus...
