Re: Draft ShapeString can't open symbolic links?

My real issue is why won't it open a symlink. I see a comment in the test code that alludes to someone before me wondering the same thing... It may be that flatpak can't open symlinks, but a quick google only finds others' quirks. I had a couple of cursory searches through the git repo, but I didn't...

What a joy it is to try and help out on the internet. I doubt this is the correct thread to have a conversation in, but... It'...

Re: Sketcher Workbench pages (status of each page)

Sketcher Constrain auto radius/diameter https://wiki.freecadweb.org/Sketcher_ConstrainRadiam This is missing from your list. But that is not why I am here. The page is incorrectly named and I do not have permission to move it. The name issue meant that it took me 1o mins to realise the information I...

Re: [Solved] Unexpected Klein bottle during PDN loft

I saw that commit a couple of days ago, but haven't had a play around with it yet. Maybe later in the week. Thanks for working on it!
