Problem with 0.20 not finding workbenches on Mac

Post by keithsloan52 »

I am on a mac and other versions of FreeCAD find workbenches in /Users/keithsloan/Library/Preferences/FreeCAD/Mod/
but 0.20 is not.

Do I have to install the via addon_manager in FreeCAD 0.20?

They are now in /Users/cb/Library/Application Support/FreeCAD/. It conforms better to some standard. I moved them there and created a symbolic link in the old place so that I can use old versions without doubling the addons.
