techdraw multiple page "insert view from Arch Sectionplan" not working

Post by danreb »

When more than one tachdraw pages are open in freecad it is not possible anymore to insert section view from "Insert a view from an Archsection plan"
eather we have the "cannot determine correct page"
or "Select exactly one Arch Section Plane object." ( if we select the sectionPlanc and the Techdraw page)

can someone please help?

Many thanks anyway

Hi, could you please post a simple sample FreeCAD file that demonstrates the issue so we can experiment on the same thing?

Hi,

please find attached an exemple file.

Problems occures when trying to insert any sectionView in any of the 2 techDraw pages.

If you delete one of the techDraw page (i.e. there is just on left, no matters which of these) , then you can insert a sectionView again in the only remaining page.

This is frustrating not to have opportunity to work with sectionView and having multiple techDraw page in same document project. Even though we could have a workaround using the "Insert a DW object" based on a 2D view of the same sections.

Thanks for you help/advices,

Cheers

This should be fixed by git commit 5d1fa67230.

I had this issue, and just noticed this thread with a solution. What is the easiest way for me to migrate to the daily on a mac. I have a mint box I have the daily's set up for but on a mac I am not sure, It is the easiest one for me to work on right now for a host of reasons or I would just use the other one. Any help would be appreciated as I am trying to get drawings out to the structural engineer ASAP.
