GD&T Workbench for FreeCAD

[wandererfan]

Hi wandererfan, I can not reproduce your problem. Can you enter the following lines in the Python console?

Close, but I have extra round brackets & comma. Different Python version?

Code: Select all

Before Add Datum Feature
>>> import GDT
>>> GDT.getAllAnnotationObjects()[0].faces
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<input>", line 1, in <module>
IndexError: list index out of range
>>> 

After Add Datum Feature in dialog
>>> import GDT
>>> GDT.getAllAnnotationObjects()[0].faces
[(<Part::PartFeature>, ('Face6',))]
>>> 

After closing Add Datum Feature dialog
>>> import GDT
>>> GDT.getAllAnnotationObjects()[0].faces
[(<Part::PartFeature>, ('Face6',))]
>>>

The code I use to extract the selected faces is as follows:

Code: Select all

>>> import GDT
>>> faces = []
>>> for i in range(len(GDT.getSelectionEx())):
...     for j in range(len(GDT.getSelectionEx()[i].SubElementNames)):
...         faces.append((GDT.getSelectionEx()[i].Object, GDT.getSelectionEx()[i].SubElementNames[j]))
>>> faces.sort()
>>> faces
[(<Part::PartFeature>, 'Face3')]

Maybe the extra comma is added depending of the Python version? Because in my code I'm just accessing an SubElementNames, not tuple.

With this code you get a list of tuples formed first by the part to which they belong and secondly by the subelement selected.

Another example when you have selected edges and faces: [(<Part::PartFeature>, 'Edge5'), (<Part::PartFeature>, 'Edge6'), (<Part::PartFeature>, 'Face2'), (<Part::PartFeature>, 'Face3'), (<Part::PartFeature>, 'Face6')]

My luck is no better on a different machine.

@juanvanyo has the issue been fixed?

[fosselius]

Wow. Thanks for bringing this to my attention. Had not seen this before.

Sadly it looks like there have been no activity in the gitrepo the last year..

@fosselius take a look at FreeCAD-Addons repo. There is a lot of cool stuff in there.

If I recall correctly, this WB worked with v0.16 and Drawing WB but not with 0.17 and TechDraw. The 16/17 issue was a difference in how PropertyLinkSubList(??) returned its results. The Drawing/TD issue was the same one as DrawingDimensioning and TD. TD doesn't draw the display in SVG, so providing addon results as SVG isn't really helpful.

I think the author wrote the code as a thesis project, so if he got his degree, he may have lost interest.

Any news on this. I've tried this plugin on version 0.16 and 0.17, linux and it crashes pretty quick.

[engdham]

It does not work with 0.18.3, sadly
