Maybe you need a special feature, go into Macros_recipes and Code_snippets, Topological_data_scripting.
My macros on Gist.github here complete macros Wiki and forum.

Hi, GlouGlou

I Tested the installation on Windows 8 and didn't get any problem,
The Workbench is available on the Workbench Menu.

I unzip the file from Github under :
C:\Program Files\FreeCAD 0.16\Mod\WorkeFeature-WB-master
FreecadWindows.png

And few usage tests were positive too.

What is the exact procedure you followed to install?

the workfeature WB is now part of the addons repo.
I had to make some git sorcery to rename the workfeature macro repo, tell me if you notice any problem.

How do you then bring them into a Sketch ??

i must select each object and import via shapebinder..

I tried to move all, set, objects .. into a body..no way...

@ realthunder
Thank you for your trick regarding linksubglobal : It seems it fix my issue.

@ HarryGeier
I am currently fixing the "PartDesign Body" issue and hope to deliver soon a new fix.
How do you then bring them into a Sketch ??
What do you mean : You would like to transform the WF_WB parametric object into a Sketch object and keep the parametric behavior?

Thank you for your comment

Have a nice day

Sure.. what else should i want to do with them , other than reference them as external geometry in a sketch ?
Same as i do with datum_geometry of the elements from the workfeature_macro
