Re: Strange translations for some WB names in preferences

Ok this is now done. All the ship files have been transferred to the FreeCAD-addons crowdin repo. As far as I can see, there is no more "tirant d'eau" anywhere in the FreeCAD crowdin repo. I'll now try to update the translations in FreeCAD and see if that solves the issue... *EDIT* As of h...

Re: Strange translations for some WB names in preferences

There is no more "Ship" in FreeCAD at all. BUT: 1) If I grep -ri "tirant d'eau" * I still find "tirant d'eau" in the sources: grep -ri "tirant d'eau" * src/Mod/PartDesign/Gui/Resources/translations/PartDesign_kab.ts: <translation>Tirant d'eau</translation> src...

Re: [GSoC 2024] - Command-Line Preferences Manipulation

I think a user can already do much more serious harm with the command line version of FreeCAD, simply by running a Python script that does anything we can dread... Modifying the preferences in itself is not very dangerous, and in any case any script could manipulate the config files outside FreeCAD ...

Weekly 18 at https://yorik.uncreated.net/blog/2024-004-freecad-news-18 : The lock system This was merged last week, but I thought I’d explain a bit more how it works. Basically you get a new little IFC button in the status bar, when using the BIM workbench. This is the IFC lock button, and it can be...

Indeed having a second tree view is not interesting :)

How do you see that cataloger?

Re: BIM/Arch development news articles from Yorik's blog

In this case, "lock" I think is exactly what we want, because we do want it to sound restrictive. In many aspects of CAD, "restriction" is a good thing, something we want. It definitely means restricting the freedom. But iFC is a strict, carefully tailored standard. So if the sof...

Re: Structural Steel Detailing - CET.SteelConnDesign ?

I understand ;) No problem, there is space for everyone, and we also want to have a healthy commercial / non-commercial relationship around FreeCAD. And I believe having pro tools that rely on FreeCAD is something potentially good for everybody. I'll be curious to see more of this, please keep shari...

Re: BIM/Arch development news articles from Yorik's blog

Could you please tell us more about this "lock" concept ? I see two scenarios here, and they both seem to me equally important: 1) You want to use both IFC objects and not IFC objects in your FreeCAD document. That is, using the full power of FreeCAD while working on a BIM project, with o...
