do you intend to provide windows anaconda packages? not at the moment. My goal is to provide packages for linux (ubuntu/ arch) first. The anaconda compiler uses the system native compiler under the hood. So for Python2.7 that's VC9. We will have hope when Python3 support is integrated. For Python3....

Some updates: I started a little "organization" on anaconda. Hopefully this is ok for the freecad-team... http://anaconda.org/freecad . At the moment I try to build packages for all the latest dependencies. Here are the recipes for building the packages and also some information sheets for...

as I have said: pivies quarter won't work inside of freecad, because freecad uses it's own quarter implementation... I don't know the reason for this. Maybe someone could tell us whats wrong with freecads quarter implementation ;) 0x00007ffff65bdeea in PyObject_Call () from /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu...

OT: would it be possible to send a pull request to https://github.com/tpaviot/smesh with these smesh updates?

freecad now uses quarter instead of sogui. try from pivy import quarter the api of quarter is a bit different to sogui so your code won't work with simply replacing sogui with quarter. It is not possible to create a quarter viewer inside of freecad-gui, because freecad has a special implementation o...

There is one thing left i am not sure i will resolve for first release. That is menu buttons will likely be squares instead of circles. The reason for that is i need to understand repainting of buttons first to make it perfect and i am not sure how much time will it take me to do that once i get to...

Although I do not like these snaps, I gave it a try. The installation worked great (ubuntu 16.04). Running this version gave me some small errors. Maybe you can have a look: libGL error: No matching fbConfigs or visuals found libGL error: failed to load driver: swrast Draft workbench activated FreeC...

Thanks looo, but will it not break for users of newer distros?

No only the travis builds are broken swig on newer system is swig3, so the problem is only with older distros. But for sure there will be a solution.

I think it should be possible to change the build procedure of python-pivy to only create the Python binding for Coin3d.

if the soqt library isn't found during the build-configuration of pivy only the coin bindings are generated.

Ok, everything rebased! https://github.com/yorikvanhavre/FreeCAD/tree/py3-17 Compiling this branch works with both python2 and python3. With python2, all the tests pass. Thanks yorik for the great work! :D In looo 's pivy repo The pivy 3.0.8 binary is named "pivy" in Arch not "pivy3....
