Re: [announcement] FreeCAD 0.20 will be released soon - time for a feature freeze
The changes of git commit 2853f6715ab75d24b should be reverted as this can considerably slow-down the rendering for big models. Further discussion took place here: https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic. ... 81#p584481
The suggested change is to enable the toggle button by default.
EDIT: Fixed with git commit 82d5be5f6b9e and git commit c4c030451847

Re: [announcement] FreeCAD 0.20 will be released soon - time for a feature freeze
Not sure if this is the right topic for this question. But will the Drawing WB be removed in V0.20?
Re: [announcement] FreeCAD 0.20 will be released soon - time for a feature freeze
AFAIR It will be fully removed by v0.20.1 or v0.21

[feature freeze status report #4] - FreeCAD 0.20
Hi developers, it#s time for another status report:
------------------
General:
we made good progress. There are now only 2 known crashes and one regression left:
https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD/milestone/2
For the regression we have a workaround, so this is not a blocker.
However, the 2 crashes should be investigated.
------------------
Build System:
Conda seems to work, so we can provide builds for MacOS and Linux. For Windows, we have a Libpack with OCC 7.6.1 with the drawback that with it Netgen is not delivering proper results in all cases.
To sort this out and to centralize the work on the LibPack, we created a new repository:
https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD-LibPack
I will fill it later today. There will be two branches:
* a branch with a LibPack containing OCC 7.5.3 and a fully functional netgen. This is the one from apeltauer: https://github.com/apeltauer/FreeCAD/re ... ack_12.5.4 plus these changes: https://github.com/apeltauer/FreeCAD/is ... 1167630306
(used already for the 0.19 builds)
* a branch with a LibPack containing OCC 7.6.1 and the crippled Netgen. This is the one from scottmudge: https://github.com/realthunder/FreeCAD/pull/220
Starting from these 2 LibPacks there should be one Libpack from which we build the Windows releases. The decision will be if a working Netgen supersedes the fillet crash fixes in OCC 7.6.1. This will need some time and proper testing.
I will provide 0.20 test builds hopefully tomorrow.
---------------
Issue tracker:
We decided yesterday in a joint meeting to this rule for new issues:
- known developers can directly open an issue without prior forum discussion
- all others have to start a forum thread before opening an issue. First when it is confirmed there, an issue will be accepted/considered
(Meeting minutes from this meeting will be published later today in a separate forum thread.)
--------------
Miscellaneous:
Many, many thanks to all contributors! keep up the good work and don't forget to have a loo at the Wiki if it describes the sate of FC 0.20.
As always, don't hesitate with feedback.
thanks and regards
Uwe

Meanwhile it turned out that the regression is none and one crash is upstream.uwestoehr wrote: ↑Thu Apr 14, 2022 3:18 pm we made good progress. There are now only 2 known crashes and one regression left:

So only one known crash caused by FreeCAD remains: https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD/issues/6200

FC 0.20 will stay as it is. We are close to a release.

Re: [announcement] FreeCAD 0.20 will be released soon - time for a feature freeze
Good afternoon. I'm a first time user, but can help translating to Portuguese the documentation page. From what I've seen, it's almost all in English, yet.
Thank you for all the effort to present the world with a Free (and even Open Source) Parametric CAD software.
Learning is a passion.
