A proper measurement tool that is available from all tools and a few more options than current (Part) one (diameter distence between 2 holes etc) Maybe a few features / feature additions for PartDesign +1. The feature selection mechanism for the pattern features is one of the most cumbersome I've e...

Another question is, which assembly framework should I be using. I think this is a real problem for Freecad right now. It seems that creating an assembly is a pretty core thing to do for this type of program and every solution that I see out there (assembly2, a2+, assembly 3, and then even assembly...

Right. And this is what I'm really trying to work through when I present open source in my profession. In my view, it's not really right to look at open source solutions and compare them feature-for-feature to their proprietary counterparts. Many FOSS projects themselves do not set out to mimic or ...

It works now. I did not have parentheses after __init__()
Thank you very much vocx.

I thought I would try reinstalling FreeCad. OS: Windows 10 Word size of OS: 64-bit Word size of FreeCAD: 64-bit Version: 0.18.16131 (Git) Build type: Release Branch: releases/FreeCAD-0-18 Hash: 3129ae4296e40ed20e7b3d460b86e6969acbe1c3 Python version: 3.6.6 Qt version: 5.6.2 Coin version: 4.0.0a OCC ...

I found that the argument for .setupUi() should be QtWidgets.QDialog as Mario does. class init_val_prob_dialog(QtWidgets.QDialog, Ui_init_val_prob_dialog): def __init__(self): super(init_val_prob_dialog, self).__init__ self.setupUi(QtWidgets.QDialog) now I get this error Traceback (most recent call ...

Creat work. He could have saved himself work if he would not have done it from scratch but would have used some existant code from FEM instead. mfasano already knew about that GSoC project. I only knew that it had been proposed by the MBDyn authors. I did not know about an actual project. He didn't...

Thanks vocx for the help. The class Ui_init_val_prob_dialog(object) is generated using pyside2-uic from a UI file. the other class init_val_prob_dialog(QtWidgets.QDialog, Ui_init_val_prob_dialog) is something I copied from somewhere. including self as an argument in .setupUi worked. Now it has a pro...

These are functions, right? So you should call them. super(init_val_prob_dialog, self).__init__() self.setupUi() self.show() If you don't write the parentheses, you are just treating them as variables (they return the reference to their internal object). I tried that and I got an error that says I ...

MBDyn needs to be run from a terminal. Is there a way to run a shell script from python?

Yep. I've don this. So that MBDyn can be executed from FreeCAD with a click...

From the video it looks like you open shell and run a command.
