Re: Tracking FreeCAD collaboration tools

Would you be open to offering some orientation on this thread and your official FCCollaboration thread on how Alpha testers can help specifically? Yes for sure! I detailed the steps for helping me with tests in the original thread, and here for completeness: Can you find FreeCAD workflows, actions,...

Re: Alpha tester wanted: Collaborative FC add-on

I detailed the actions testers can help me with in the first topic. For completeness here is what I hope someone is willing to go through: Can you find FreeCAD workflows, actions, etc. that lead to unsynchronized documents in the multiple open FreeCAD instances? Do the following: 3.1. Setup two Free...

Re: Tracking FreeCAD collaboration tools

I would love some people to test the current implementation of my approach, but its not ready for real collaboration. More like alpha testers of partial available functionality. If everything works well I hope to have it ready for full collaboration end of year.

Re: Multi VTK viewing/support (MoFEM)

Ah good to be aligned :) The option you described, where one file contains multiple results is basically a wrapper file that points again to multiple .vtk's so it will be necessary to have a multi vtk structure either way. To be honest, I'm very rusty with the VTK API, and was not very good to begin...

Re: Multi VTK viewing/support (MoFEM)

Nice, I'm always glad people work on the VTK stuff! For the proposal I think we should think careful about how to implement that, as there are two possible things to consider: 1. The vtk datastructure does allow for multiple datasets in one result. This is used e.g. for time analysis, one dataset fo...

Re: FreeCAD on Facebook passes 10K members

What's the link? A see this page as "official" (whatever it means): https://www.facebook.com/FreeCAD There are far more then 10k... That is the actual FreeCAD news group actually started by Yorik. It apparently is for announcements and updates. It is for all things freecad, news and proje...

Re: Coin3d rotation 360Degree - still not correct? why?

I do not know exactly the implementation of your custom functions, but coin usually takes radians as angles, not decrees. So maybe there is a problem with the convertion somewhere? The reason this comes to mind is the fact, that the arrows are not drawn at very low and very high values. So maybe som...

Re: Rerunning the analysis

When building the postprocessing pipeline I deliberately made it not self updating. The reason is, that I usually prefere to have two results next to each other for comparison. I wanted to include a nice system of copying a filter setup to a new pipeline, but never had time for it. I fully understan...

Re: FreeCAD Python Console - My thoughts (shouldn't block FreeCAD)

The current behaviour is mostly driven by the fact that freecad is inherently single threaded, and changing that is extremely hard up to impossible, as many used libraries are not multithreaded. As the python console works on the active freecad session state, this cannot be decoupled into a differen...
