Re: When Right-Hand and Left-Hand Helix get stuck

It seems to be a bug in actual FreeCAD. Changing any parameter of the helix and than recompute causes the sweep to use only the first segment of the helix. One possibility is to rebuild the nut from its given sketches. I have not testet, if this bug also affects Part-design. Edit: I did a few more t...

Re: How to get spreadsheet object from its edit view ?

I queried the python console and came to the same conclusion. When a spreadsheet was just selected in the tree-view, so that the respective window opens, You can use: myS = App.Gui.Selection.getCompleteSelection() myS0 = myS[0] myS0.FullName myS0 seems to be the spreadsheet-object. You may check fir...

Re: Very Simple Thermal Model of Cylindrical Rod

I have not found an .exe The FreeCAD.exe is inside of the folder "bin". Scroll down until you find the executable binary between all delivered dlls. But you may be out of luck. It was reported that the two last published versions have a problem: https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?...

Re: Recompute failed (SIGSEGV) after editing a cell in a spreadsheet

although I am not sure if something is happening and if a bug reprot has been created I think there was no bug report. But wmayer made a commit regarding a similar failure. So I would expect, that it is solved in an actual development version. See here: https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=...

Writing an TD-specific SVG converter could improve the situation. Does not the Drawing workbench having one? It produces better SVG-files.

Re: App::Annotation Strings not shown in 0.19 under Windows

But I don't think anything has changed wrt this in FreeCAD and since this heavily depends on Coin3d stuff its version matters. Mario52 confirmed the problem with Coin version: 4.0.0a. I used a develoment version from the download site. It was an installer with its name ending "x64_LP_12.1.2_PY...

Re: App::Annotation Strings not shown in 0.19 under Windows

I could see them in a 0.18 Windows version. On the same computer where the 0.19 failed? What Coin3d versions do they depend on? Yes it was on the same computer where the 0.19 failed, I could work with the file with a 0.18-Windows-Version. I have actually no access to this computer. So I can not ans...

App::Annotation Strings not shown in 0.19 under Windows

I added some numbers to vertices by adding App::Annotation-objects in the python console. This was done in a recent Linux-version of FreeCAD 0.19. When I opened the document on a different computer under Windows, the Annotation-strings where invisible in the 3D-view. I could see them in a 0.18 Windo...
