FreeCAD Forum

I was referring to the Downloads page available directly from the home page, but perhaps I am mistaken. I see. An additional problem here is that the development link links to https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD/releases instead of https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD/releases/tag/0.19_pre where the a...

For a script I want to get the number of decimals the user set in the FC preferences for the units. parms = App.ParamGet("User parameter:BaseApp/Preferences/Units") parms.GetInt('UserSchema') parms.GetInt('Decimals') EDIT: Fixed second line, Schema gives the unit system, not needed in your case.

This is absolutely the best way to approach this problem: nicely done wmayer!

Does anyone know what the github webgui uses? Or if can be configured to use the -w switch?

I really think this is an issue on the code base and not on the packaging...

Thanks for testing, I'm always worried I've mucked something up.

On my system

Can you try to build FreeCAD with VS2019 using the Libpack?
I will eventually try this myself BUT [excuse] I'm still on Win7 and I'm preparing for when I bork my system with the Win10 upgrade [excuse]
