Creating Lasercutting Paths

I am trying to create paths for a K40 lasercutter. K40 whipserer is a nice open source tool that allows these cheap machines to run from gcode. I am running into a few issues though.. maybe someone here can help? My parts have 'folding lines' and cutlines and I can't find a way to get them cut in a ...

Re: Freecad 0.18 Mac OS daily release

The important thing is to have the channels in the right order. The higher-priority channel must be listed first. Sorry for giving wrong instructions previously. Another way is to activate the freecad env and update freecad: initConda # assuming you activate the base-env with initConda source activ...

Re: Freecad 0.18 Mac OS daily release

@looo Using the condo build, I can get into the path workbench. But I can't create a new path job object, this is the output: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Users/turbo/miniconda3/envs/freecad/Mod/Path/PathScripts/PathJobCmd.py", line 119, in Activated self.Execute(dialog.getMod...

Re: Freecad 0.18 Mac OS daily release

Regarding influence of conda-linux-builds on the system: There should be a line in the .bashrc (or equivalent on Mac) which activates the conda environment. I replace this line by setting it to an alias : alias initConda='<command for activation>' This way I always have to call "initConda"...

Re: Freecad 0.18 Mac OS daily release

I thought I had deactivated the startpage, but I cannot find such an option. So yes, the startpage is not showing up (but also not on the mac builds on github). There are two more bugs: I get a beachball when I click on preferences. After a while they pop up. Also the macos system menubar on top doe...

Re: Freecad 0.18 Mac OS daily release

There is a new daily build for MacOS. It still has that freeze bug, though. @chrisb: That's good to hear, thanks for the info. @looo: I have FreeCAD working from condo. It seems to work fine so far. Is there anything I should test? It is not an app bundle, so I cannot test that freeze bug. I've test...

Re: Freecad 0.18 Mac OS daily release

Luckily that last .18 build works pretty smooth. I've got xcode and homebrew but I can't get FreeCAD compiled from master yet. I'd like to help get this sorted but I wouldn't even know where to start and look for the right information. @loo I've also tried running those conda builds, this is what I ...

Re: FreeCAD on macOS Mojave

A simple workaround for now: Create an alias to the FreeCAD binary on your Desktop. When started from this alias, it will automatically open from a terminal. This for some reason fixes the freezes.

Re: 0.17 & Mac Mojave total crash

Here's the output of make. Are there any more ressources that help getting a working setup to compile FreeCAD on Mojave?
