Here is the information, you asked for: I am using FreeCADLibs_8.2_x86_VC9. >>> import sip >>> print sip.__file__ C:\Users\ubrammer\FreeCAD-git\FreeCAD_sf_master\Build\bin\sip.pyd >>> dir(sip) ['SIP_VERSION', 'SIP_VERSION_STR', '_C_API', '__doc__', '__file__', '__name__', '__package__', '_unpickle_e...

I am having problems with an actual build of FreeCAD on Windows 7 32 bit. Have a look here: http://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=5384&start=10#p43371 For me it looks like the Pivy delivered with the FreeCAD source has references towards sip, which is used for PyQt4. Similar error ...

In the early days the drawing was used for tolerancing. So I am still living in the early days, but have the clear advantage of having a modern CAD-system. ;) It is just missing some small features, I like to have. I see them growing. GD&T is not at the high priority list, but having the old da...

The error message at calling the Draft-workbench is: Draft_start.png "unwrapinstance" seems to point to soqt_wrap.cpp. So this is c++, which calls sip. I do not understand, why this is a problem with windows but not with linux. The code of soqt_wrap says, it is generated with swig. Ulrich

I am not an experienced programmer at all, nor do I know the code inside of FreeCAD. So these are just my thoughts about this topic. A common class/object which holds all needed information of a dimension object may the start of a collaborative project. This class should be accessible in draft, sket...

Currently your best path is to use the Drawing tool for objects and Draft tool for dimensions. I tried that approach. I worked in master as long as I had a projection along the z-axis. I still had to invert z and x. But I could not manage to get a common direction of both parts of the model with an...

Are you sure you are compiling the latest source code? Yes I did compile the latest code, as you can see here: OS: Windows 7 Platform: 32-bit Version: 0.14.3021 (Git) Branch: master Hash: 9fdf3f64ad3a959a27aab0c8d98b6ca92f45ee55 Python version: 2.6.2 Qt version: 4.5.2 Coin version: 3.1.0 SoQt versi...

It is somewhere logical and obvious but it may be a "hidden" directory. If you can't find it try setting you file browser to "show hidden directories" and/or search for "FreeCAD". I know this directory. It is in this path: C:/user...Roaming/FreeCAD ( not fully written)...
