Exactly!

Hi,

I'm not sure to be at the good place ...

I'm using FreeCAD with Expressions and I find it really convenient.

However, I'm not able to set an expression for many object at the same time.
I think it will be a good improvement.

Your opinion ?

2. Hack the GUI Click on the Draft/SetSlope function to display the slope input field in the Task panel, then enter following in the Python Console : from PySide import QtCore, QtGui QtCore.QTimer.singleShot(2500, lambda:QtGui.QApplication.focusObject().setDecimals(XXX)) Where 'XXX' is the decimal ...

Ok, now everybody speaks about the same thing : tangent is equal to percent of slope.

So, are you able to set a slope between two round values in % : I mean 0.5% or 2.3% for example?
If yes, I'd like to know how.

Hi, I'm using de the Draft Slope tool to build pipe: https://www.freecadweb.org/wiki/Draft_Slope However, I didn't find how to set a slope between two round values in % : I mean 0.5% or 2.3% for example. It's quite strange because it seem possible if you read the wiki page precited. Any idea to help...

Thanks!

In the meantime, I copied from my backup file and it's done.

I'll remembre your post if I want to begin scripting : it's already the second time I got this bug and I hope it wont' come back again .

Hi,

Yorik, I tried your script and it works.
However, it didn't keep each property of the original text : I mean font size, justification, color, etc.
Where can I find documentation on scripting with draft text?

Thanks

Thank you! I'll try it.

In the meantime, I copied some text items from my backup file to my current file and it works too.

It might be interesting if you upgrade to the new FreeCAD version recently? 0.18.3 is not the last version? I updated to the 0.18.3 yesterday (I think) and I had the same problem with the 0.18.2. I'm not able to say if the problem existed with the 0.18.1 ... I looked into the zip container's Docume...
