[mario52]

hi
done same link, latest version FCInfo.FCMacro

if you want modify the value by default, modify now the line 193
example default (1.00)

Code: Select all

global densite       ; densite       = 1.00 # (steel = 7.5 kg by dm3)

modify to (1.20)

Code: Select all

global densite       ; densite       = 1.20 # (steel = 7.5 kg by dm3)

Hello community, this is my first post.

I just installed the FCInfo Macro. Everything works fine. Thanks for your effort!

BUT I actually installed it because I was hoping it would also provide me with the surface property second moment of area (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_moment_of_area).

Is there an option to compute this property with the macro?

I need to compute the second moments of areas of some more complex geometries and I was hoping FreeCAD (or one of its workbenches/macros) could do the job.

If this macro cannot, which other does? So many questions.... Hope somebody can help me out here.

Hello Lukas,
I would recommend you to look through this Fred: https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic. ... ft#p187133

Hello r.tec,

thanks for your reply. But this thread did not help me.

I came closer to the solution but I am not quite there yet.

If anyone else is looking for a solution on this, this thread goes in the right direction:

Hi GlouGlou (et glou et glou et glou ... ),
Would you have a large HiDPI monitor ?
In that case, I think Windows applies a scaling on the fonts.

I think so, Ive already saw that kind of bad display

Hi

just cause HighDP, here the solution by UR_

on my macbook at home running on Windows 10 64bits, the FCInfo view is "ugly"

I'm using a HighDPI display too and mario's macros are unfortunately not HDPI-aware.
But there is a workaround on windows:

use windows explorer and go to directory, where FreeCAD.exe can be found
right-click FreeCAD.exe and select "Properties" from context menu
adjust accordindly to screenshot


start FreeCAD

see the post how can i get the length of a closed sketch ?

How to adapt my macros they are all done the same way with Qt?

PS: now with version 0.17 of FreeCAD my macros do not recognize the placement of the body the macro gives the normal placement and not the GlobalPlacement ()

I will adapt later (when the shock has been absorbed sniff !!)
valid for all my macros using Placement

Comment adapter mes macros elles sont toutes faites de la même façon avec Qt ?

PS: maintenant avec la version 0.17 de FreeCAD mes macros ne reconnaissent pas le placement du body la macro donne le placement normal et non le GlobalPlacement()

je vais adapter plus tard (quand le choc aura été absorbé snif !!)
valable pour toutes mes macros utilisant le Placement
