Re: File dialogue lingers when handling large files

I cannot run the QT4 version at all. :S It crashes instantly. This is the report dump that the computer gives me (it says I'm missing some library). I'm trying to use build 10973 I just downloaded from the release page. I have tried to remove the preference files and the Freecad.plist file, but it d...

File dialogue lingers when handling large files

Opening/importing or saving a large file might take some time. During this time, Freecad is unresponsive and will linger the file dialogue on top of all windows, thus blocking a big part of the screen while Freecad works, rendering the computer unusable while during that time. It is fully acceptable...

Re: Crash Bug #2710 Freecad doesn't show sketch elements added when overconstrained

I uploaded them to the bug report (they are not that big, 30kB or less each).

Re: Bug #2815: Default shortcut for "Constrain distance" has conflict

Seems like, as of version 0.17.10967, this is no longer a problem. If some of you nice developers also found this to not be an issue anymore, this issue can be closed. It might also have been something weird with my config files (as was in another issue: https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=...

Re: Crash Bug #2710 Freecad doesn't show sketch elements added when overconstrained

I deleted system.cfg and user.cfg and that seems to have done trick :) Still unsure what could have caused the error in the first place. Should I upload the files I deleted (I saved them in another location) so someone can take a look at them, because there is obviously something wrong here?

Re: Crash Bug #2710 Freecad doesn't show sketch elements added when overconstrained

I tried it again with the latest build (Version: 0.17.10967). My findings are: Whenever you have an overconstrained sketch and add any sketch element, that does not add any constraints, the newly added sketch element does not appear. If you add or change any constraint to the sketch (including autoc...

Freecad freezes when opening large STEP-files

I have a problem that when I import a large STEP-file (>70MB) into Freecad, it becomes unresponsive after a while. Importing smaller STEP-files works fine (takes a lot of time, but that's expected). I don't know if the file is broken or if it's just very complex. I can unfortunately not share the fi...

Re: Assembly 2 workbench for FreeCAD v0.15

Is it only for me that Assembly 2 does not work anymore in 0.17? Since Freecad changed how parts from PartDesign are handled (with that whole Body thing), it seems that it's not possible to import any new parts created in PartDesign. I'm getting the message that "A part can only be imported fro...

Nox from Wakfu's sword, full size, 3D-printed

Hey guys I wanted to show something that I'm surprised you could actually do in Freecad. I made the sword of Nox from Wakfu for my Cosplay of the same character. This is the original from the show: Sword, original, owerview.png The whole sword (except for the handle) is 3D-printed, in a total of som...
