Only two things to answer,

D'oh!
Thanks

I tried to build master but the buil fails... cmake -S ../freecad-source -B . -DBUILD_QT5=ON -DPYTHON_EXECUTABLE=/usr/bin/python3 In file included from /home/maxime/Downloads/freecad-source/src/Base/RotationPyImp.cpp:33: /home/maxime/Downloads/freecad-source/src/Base/RotationPy.cpp:137:40: error: ‘s...

Hello, I get a picking failure with the OpenInventor nav mode steps: Open Freecad New document New Part Create cude (in CAD nav mode I can pick faces, edges, if I switch to OpenInventor I can't anymore) [edit: building master to try out...] OS: Ubuntu Core 20 (KDE/plasma) Word size of OS: 64-bit Wor...

ickby agreed, the work you did with qt quick is quite dated, as i believe you even stated you did your work with a version of qt in the 4.x series, more than likely it was 4.8.x and above because from what i understand that was about the qt group added support for QML. and to the best of my knowled...

Hey guys, Guess who's back from the dead. Not implying I have tons of time to invest but I *might* have a bit more 2 weeks from now. Still quite busy with my startup. Also, meanwhile, I see pyside2 have made good progress and python is now a 1st class citizen in the Qt ecosystem. So, I'm kinda throw...

No progress yet, still in the back of my mind. Got implicated in a little startup.

Frankly, I can't say, but I suspect everything but central widget will work as before. In the end both QWidget and QWindow are based on QObject, Q_PROPERTY, signals and slots. So everything *can* play nice. The Quarter thingy is really just a bridge to map qt mouse and keyboard events to Coin3D, and...

Well as I ended up concluding, I think my best bet is to bypass Quarter altogether and go straight to Coin3D. Why? Quarter wraps Coin3D in a QPainter-based QWidget. QtQuick2 is neighter QPainter nor QWidget based. I will wrap my qtquick2 QWindow in a QWidget's QWindow container, but I will do everyt...

Ok, so, I did study the first few commits made by ickby https://github.com/ickby/FreeCAD_sf_master/commits/layout I learn that FreeCAD is based on Quarter, a Qt-wrapper for Coin3D. I notice that ickby had to modify the source of QuarterWidget.cpp, which is part of Coin3D/quarter but at the time, had...

Thanks vocx, The errors I encountered were when I tried to build ickby's latest rebase, which is "2617 commits behind FreeCAD:master.". I don't think I would have an issue building master's head. That said, thanks for the hints but I don't plan to spend effort managing to build the old qt4...
