Re: KiCadStepUP: Edge Connectors; pcb Trace Import
M4x and easyw-fc , thank you for your very prompt response! Now, I want to mention another problem: While updating my original post, I tried to attach the .kicad_mod file of the footprint (less than 3kB), but now I was told that the forum did not like the extension of the file! I don't think I face...

Re: KiCadStepUP: Edge Connectors; pcb Trace Import
Thank you, @easyw-fc!
Here are two links from fileio:
https://filepost.io/d/zH3rNy6Z2y
https://filepost.io/d/5H4R5EwyZS
The first is the FCStd file and the second the STEP file of the connector (as provided by the manufacturer). I will update my original post with these two links.

KiCadStepUP: Edge Connectors; pcb Trace Import

This a an edge-mount connectior, which comes into two parts which are bolted together, straddling...

Re: Permanent Tool Bar and Panel Visibility in FC20?
Thanks to everybody who responded. I am not sure exactly what I did, but I solved my problem. I had the conda version of FC19 and the FC-daily installed from the Ubuntu ppa. So. I decided to clean everything . I uninstalled FC20 with the '--purge' option, erased the conda environment containing FC19...

Re: Permanent Tool Bar and Panel Visibility in FC20?
Thanks to everybody who responded. I deleted the '~/.config/FreeCAD' file and Lattice workbench, per [crisb]'s recommendation. Nothing really changed. I even deleted the Modern GUI, but FC20 still forgot the displayed toolbars between startups. I also observed that the KiCADstepUP workbench disappea...

[Solved] Permanent Tool Bar and Panel Visibility in FC20?
I am using FC20 on stock Linux Mint 20.3. (I know that FC20 is not considered stable.) I have observed that every time I start FC20, I have to activate the File and Workbench toolbars (View→Toolbars) and I also have to pin the Combo View panel frequently because it decides to disappear when not in u...

Control of the Plane where Projection Is Shown in StepUP
StepUP is a set of tools which "marry" KiCAD and FreeCAD. During the past two or so years, thanks to [maui], it has evolved very rapidly. My understanding is that when the "3D object to 2D projection" tool is selected, the projection plane is the one of the display. However, I th...

Re: [SOLVED] pyrate Installed but Does Not Show up as WB Option
@NormandC: I'm sorry, I forgot that you are using Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. It contains a version of Qt5 that's too old to support Pyside2 required to work with Python 3. Thank you again! It seems that anaconda includes Freecad. My anaconda is up to date. So, if I install FreeCAD in the anaconda environment...

Re: [SOLVED] pyrate Installed but Does Not Show up as WB Option
@NormandC: Thank you for all this information!
I don't have the freecad-python3 package installed. apt-get cannot find it, although 'apt-cache policy | grep freecad' lists several repos with 'freecad-stable' in them.The freecad-stable PPA for Ubuntu provides a dual Python2/3 metapackage

Re: [SOLVED] pyrate Installed but Does Not Show up as WB Option
@joha2: Thank you for the examples! I installed pyrate on my anaconda distribution and ran the first example just fine. I want to be Zeemax-free! Anyway, I have some naïve questions: The conda channel which holds pyrate is 'freecad'. Conda's 'freecad' channel also shows FreeCAD itself available! How...
