It doesn't work this way.

Sorry that was a typo with "addObject". Thanks once again. Looking forward to upgrading as soon as possible!

I am following the parametric method in FreeCAD python programming where a data and view object are created in FreeCAD document. I want to use python dictionary objects like the following in a data object: obj = doc.addObject("App::PropertyPythonObject", BComponents) obj.BComponents = {&qu...

Thanks. Will be upgrading my FreeCAD soon!

Thanks much. I read through but am not sure how to structure my data and view objects to conform to the changes. I still basically do: docObj = doc.addObject("Part::FeaturePython", docName) data(docObj) view(docObj.ViewObject) Then in my data and view modules I have the standard directives...

This problem relates to a module I am developing following some guidelines in my research. I have referred to this before but feel I should give some more information. Although it is about building information modeling it is being done following experimental ideas that may or may not pan out in the ...

Update. Turns out the WorkingPlane was not the problem. Finally got it to work.

Hi Yorik: I want to be able to implement drawing lines and arcs on faces. I have been following Draft:Line and it seems to use the WorkingPlane object when it calls getSupport() before calling getPoint(). I kinda understand a little about what WorkingPlane is doing but I do not understand how it is ...

This is an ongoing topic as Yorik has mentioned. So even though this is an old post, I figure the comments are directed at my post so I will provide a response regardless. Have you seen Alberto Paoluzzi's work and his book, "Geometric Programming for Computer-Aided Design"? No I have not r...

I have a TaskPanel that sets focus to a QLineEdit when it is open. How can I set focus back to FreeCADGui when it closes? I use the esc key to cancel current commands in my module but this does not work once and after the task panel opens. UDPATE Actually it is not the opening of the TaskPanel that ...

Thanks Yorik: Just compiled revision 0900. By importing DraftSnap, the example works as expected. Also using Draft module is now working as well. Going to git and being able to compile in a different directory makes developing and working with the latest version of FreeCAD a breeze and very encourag...
