fc doesnt autoload toolbars when starts

Post by oscarchan »

Every time it shows up,the toolbars dont show up automatically. And even I reset them and show them all, it still remain hidden when I reopen freecad.
It happens since I autostarted a custom macro. I dont know what the best way is to modify the usercfg . Thanks !

did you try with a more recent version 0.18 is almost old as 0.20 is due to be the stable version in short time. (It was due 14/06/2022 but has been postponed by some days).

Searching help or signal a bug for an outdated version is somewhat not useful.

Here you could find some updated versions:

Hope it helps

There were some issues with the windows registry I believe that got corrupted when freecad is force closed (like an irregular shutdown), it's supposed to be fixed in the 0.20 version, which is indeed already released: https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD/releases/tag/0.20

maybe version plays a role here, but what about your macro?

there are logs/report views that can be pulled from fc, also what is in your macro? (think it is not too hard to write a macro that throws fc out of its tracks..)

you will have to share that info for anyone to even remotely guess what is going on at your computer.

first question is: did you not do an autostart with your macro and reset the config-file?
second is: any particular reason you are staying on 0.18? (you could have good reasons to do so, but the general recommendation is to stay current...)

I don't know how I missed this :shock: then the culprit is very obvious, what is this macro and how are you auto loading it?
