[SOLVED] Snapping in Draf WB v0.18 OpenSuse

[Geoplace]

Hi everyone

I just install the new version from the science repository of OpenSuse.

https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/science/FreeCAD

And try to use the Draft workbench but I notice that the snapping icons are not showing.

The cursor (pointer) don't show the corresponding snap icon.

Here is a Screenshot:
The grid snapping, midpont, end point works but don't show the icons.

I did replicate this condition using:

OS: Windows 7
Word size of OS: 64-bit
Word size of FreeCAD: 64-bit
Version: 0.18.16093 (Git)
Build type: Release
Branch: releases/FreeCAD-0-18

Unfortunately I changed too many settings at once to narrow down the exact fix but I would guess the user.cfg needs to 'know' about some of the new snap functions in 0.18 such as Dimensions. So I would recommend switching Dimensions snapping On in 0.18 and exit FreeCAD completely, restart FreeCAD and test End Point/Mid Point again. If it works then just switch off Dimensions if you don't like it or it slows the graphics down too much.
I'll be able to get a more thorough triage done later today as I have a user.cfg from a couple of days ago to restore and go through it step-by-step. Hopefully new users aren't affected by this but there maybe quite a number of 0.17 upgrade users affected.

I'm annoyed with myself because I can't put FreeCAD back in a fault situation even though I could this morning but, I can say for sure that new 0.18 users' Draft Snapping icons will work with the Release Candidate and any 0.17 upgrade users will be a relatively easy fix even if they have to rebuild any custom toolbars etc.

I've tested several snapping tool combinations but none show's the snapping tooltip icon in the cursor.

It's weird the problem just happen in the distro compiled by OpenSuse Science
and the AppImages just works fine.

I dont' know how to report to it to OpenSuse.

Regards.
