Cannot include FCGears Package

Post by Karol Dembiński »

I did following:
Uninstalled FreeCAD
Downloaded new installer
You guessed, Installed it.
Opened package manager
choose FCGears and clicked install
waited to download it took long and gave up
manually copied freecad.gears-master folder to mod
Opened FreeCAD again
opened package manager and it says, that package FCGears is installed is installed
no such a package (at any name) at list of packages

Win 10 32 bit
FreeCAD 0.18 v. 4 (GitTag)

I remember, that I could add it as a macro to part workbench, but IDK how.

Do you have anything else in your Mod directory? Is anything shown in Report view? What's the output when you start from console?
You can try to reset the configuration with the button in the preferences. Another possibility is to delete your config files or to move them in case you want to restore them.

Cześć Karol,

Can you also send full info about FreeCAD (About->Copy to clipboard and paste here). That might help as well.

So you're not seeing the workbench in the workbench drop-down list? are there any other workbenches that are external that you've downloaded that are acting the same way?

Exactly, I didn't manage to catch any other package on such a misbehaviour.

@Karol Dembiński could you try to reproduce with 0.19_pre ?
Please backup any files before opening them in 0.19 since it is not backward compatible (you can open them in 0.18.4 afterwards).
