Re: FreeCAD Day 2024: Complaint Session
Please clarify #3, which states: 3. Why is there no quick way to measure internal diameter of hole, why is quick measure not the default measuring tool On the second part of the question: Does quick measure mean the add-on called QuickMeasure or does it mean any program which will quickly measure pa...

Re: Baugruppe Aktualisieren
The result: I can see the hole in A1 but NOT in A2 Hi Freecad21, Hi KBWBE. I cannot make out your parts so I cannot be sure of what you are doing. Both buttons will update your part, sort of. The main difference is that using the yellow button updates the constraints by using the names of the surfa...

Re: [Feature request] Display useful info on Status bar
Quick Measure is an add-on that gives similar information. Select one feature for placement of an item, or select two features and get the distance or angle between them. This includes vertexes, lines, planes, cylinders, circles, etc.

Re: Which Workbench for Assemblies with varying parts
Now my question is: Is there a workbench, where the constraints keep running after changing the size of parts in the assembly? Chnubi: Big question. When you create a part, each face is named. If you edit only the size of the parts the faces normally are rebuilt in the same order and retain the sam...

Re: How to write to status line?
@TheMarkster
Thanks for the code. I found that the message I sent to the status bar disappeared after a few seconds and some of the message did not show up because the words where to long.

[Solved] How to write to status line?
I wrote the Quick Measure add-on and recently tried to write the output of the program to the status bar instead of a dialog box so others could see a version of what I think a measurement program would look like. I did it by adding a TextEdit widget to the status box. It sort of works but the info ...

Re: GSoC 2023: Unified Measurement Facility
The tool is accessible through the global view toolbar, right next to the original measure distance tool. Pick the right one of the two measure icons. Hlorus, I downloaded what I thought was the latest dev version of FreeCAD but the measurement icons did not show. Is there an add-in or other instru...
