Wow, this is a great macro! I just found my own post again, using Google (lol). I've installed the macro and it works as expected! :) I wonder if it's also possible to use the current documents filename (without the extension) for the exported file? EDIT: Can answer my own question: I've replaced th...

Sometimes I get the feeling, the FreeCAD devs actually don't want to know about bugs or don't want users to use FreeCAD at all. I'm using the dev version and from time to time, I notice little, obvious bugs and issues the appear from build to build. For other software, I report bugs like this on Git...

I've replaced the two packages with their "-openmpi" suffixed counterparts and it worked (I did a complete rebuild of FreeCAD after switching the packages).

I'm using these in manjaro with a slightly modified freecad-git PKGBUILD: med-openmpi 4.0.0-3 hdf5-openmpi 1.12.0-2 I don't get that problem so maybe no porting is really needed. Thank you for the hint! I've tried that and it does work for me, too! No idea if this is real permanent solution, but at...

These are the versions currently installed. $ pacman -Q freecad-git med hdf5 freecad-git 0.18.r5421.g89ddab33f6-1 med 4.0.0-6 hdf5 1.12.0-2 As far as I understand smesh (salome mesh) is the mesher being used by default, yes. There are only these libhdf5 libs in the filesystem: /usr/lib/libhdf5.so (S...

This is a git package, which means it will always pull the latest version from Github before building. The package itself only gets updated when something else changes (like urls or dependencies). So the date given does not reflect the source code used. I know that libhdf5 may be the problem or med ...

I'm using the latest git version of FreeCAD. Since a few weeks, I can't create meshes ("Meshes" --> "Create mesh from shape..." --> "Standard" (Settings) --> "OK") anymore. I only get this error message: Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>&q...

Thank you all for your replies! I know that there are some things to avoid, which I'm already doing or at least trying to do. The file may be from a time before that, since there are some things, I wouldn't do, if I made this again. I will check out the documentation about that, since it really is a...

A while ago, I made a holder for an action cam (like a GoPro) using FreeCAD (see picture). Now I wanted to modify a copy of this model. Basically, I want to make the base plate a bit larger and replace the hexagonal holes with round 12.5 mm holes (where magnets will be pressed in later). At first th...

I'm trying to better understand the options the Standard Mesher uses to create a mesh from a shape. First I've used the default values for "Surface deviation" and "Angular deviation": 0.1 mm (100 µm) and 30° I soon found especially round structures printed to be quite "edgy&...
