Install FreeCAD-addons-master
Hi all,
FreeCad run excellent in my laptop as well as in my oldest IBM T20!
I starting to run script on the python console as area, volume, center of gravity and inertia without any inconvenient. Today I am trying install the macros FreeCad-addons-master where the file has been located in the address specified from the tutorial. The macros run and doesn't stop as show on the screenshot below. What I have done wrong?
Thanks very much in advance.

Re: Install FreeCAD-addons-master
I just checked, the macros works normally for me. Are you sure you have the latest version?
Re: Install FreeCAD-addons-master
Try: Copy the addons-installer.FCMacro from "%appdata%/FreeCAD/FreeCAD-addons-master" to "%appdata%/FreeCAD%MMSN wrote: The macros run and doesn't stop as show on the screenshot below.
It looks like the unzipped macro is one level too deep.

Re: Install FreeCAD-addons-master
Yorik,
Thanks very much for you response.
I think should be the latest one from this link:
https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD-addons (Download zip file to put in the C:\\Users\\myself\\AppData\Roaming\FreeCAD and doesn't stop of run as my previous e-mail.) https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD-addo ... er.FCMacro( Directly to Phyton console.)
Here is the error message after paste the scrip into the phyton console:(Second option from tutorials) May be I don't understand correctly the procedure.
Tanks again.

Re: Install FreeCAD-addons-master
Maybe the instructions are not correct for windows. The addons-installer.FCMacro must be on the same level as the user.cfg and system.cfg files. Copy the contents of the FreeCAD-addons-master folder to the USERMAME/Appdata/Roaming/FreeCAD folderMMSN wrote:May be I don't understand correctly the procedure.

Re: Install FreeCAD-addons-master
The file "macro-add-addons-installer.FCMacro" must be on this level not the folder "FreeCAD-addons-master"
Inside FreeCAD it should look like this

Re: Install FreeCAD-addons-master
Estrange, I unzipped the folder FreeCAD-addons-master and open some sub folders and are empty.. Something wrong or is this normal?
