Re: webm in forum

Yeah, it looks like webm was indeed disabled. I re-enabled it and set the upload limit for that extension specifically up to 5MiB

Re: Syntax error when using example from FreeCAD documentation

There were spaces in the lines between the class definitions (as well as at the end before def makeBox). I removed them from the wiki and that snippet should now be copy+pastable.

Re: future python structure of freecad

I don't see it like that as it worked for a decade (or longer)? Therefore for sure it can't be all that broken. ;) To me this is a completely fallacious argument. Compare: Ignaz Semmelweis: Maybe we doctors should wash our hands before delivering babies? Other Doctors: Our process can't be that bro...

Re: Bring branch up to date with master changes.

The easiest way as pointed out in Jee-Bee's link is using git rebase . Assuming your local "master" branch is up to date with https://github.com/freecad/freecad you can do something like: git remote add drhooves https://github.com/drhooves/freecad git fetch drhooves git checkout elmer_inte...

Re: Subfolder for Python modules

I'm still interested in this subject and wanted to cast a spell of necromancy on the thread. I recently watched this 3h video, David Beazley - Modules and Packages: Live and Let Die! - PyCon 2015 which was very informative and seems like a useful resource for anyone wanting to get the ball rolling o...

Re: Community knowledgebase: getting started with tutorial and video contribution

3) Think about size and resolution. I live in an area with poor high speed internet. streaming in HD is painful. If you maximize FreeCAD on a 4K monitor, set the icons to tiny, set the console text to 4pt font, I can't see anything useful when it's streamed in 480p. The setup I use to record is ver...

Re: 0.17 release under Ubuntu

FreeCAD 0.16 is released but not published yet. We are working first on getting 0.16 published to the "Stable" PPA. Unfortunately the daily PPA was broken by a Launchpad import bug at the exact worst time. After publishing the release we need to re-work the daily PPA to resume 0.17 daily ...

Community knowledgebase: getting started with tutorial and video contribution

First off, great idea to make this new board! I thought it might be nice to have a stickied post that could contain discussion, especially from people who are already making videos, about things like what tools to use, and other general advice. My goal is to get the ball rolling here and keep the fi...
