Scripted Objects - List of Length Property?

[paullee]

Hi, I am attempt to tweak the ArchStairs.py code (discussion in Arch board), now trying to add variable width, railing...if possible...

The original code has following, and I try to make it into a list of Length to control different 'segment' of the stairs. Seem nothing in the https://www.freecadweb.org/wiki/Scripted_objects

Code: Select all

obj.addProperty("App::PropertyLength","Width","Arch",QT_TRANSLATE_NOOP("App::Property","The width of these stairs"))

The best seems to be App::PropertyFloatList.


Any better ideas?

Thanks.

Indeed there is no PropertyLengthList... We could add it, though. But I don't know how best to implement an editor for it (= what appears in the properties list and how to edit it)

In the meantime indeed your best choice is probably to use propertyFloatList. It should be easy to update when we have something better

Thanks! Okay, may try this first until LengthList is available.

Hi, I used propertyFloatList to add a new property to control different width in 'multi-edges' landing in ArchStairs ... but it is rather clumsy.

To avoid disturbing the original Width property, I keep it, and add 'Width of Landing'...

It is no hurry, just be great it seems if one day PropertyLengthList could be added.
