Would that solve sys.path issue? I guess I am a bit hesitant because it would mean a high reliance on (my very poor) git skills to make sure my branch of FC would stay in line with FC development. I burnt my fingers many times.

As I stated don't give up ... Try, try, try and Ask, ask, ask

I have two git repos, one for FreeCAD source code https://github.com/berndhahnebach/FreeCAD_bhb and one for my workbenches ... https://github.com/berndhahnebach/FreeCAD_User_Mod but I do not track any workbench or macro which is used by others ...

This should work.

Yes. It works in PyCharm for my test case.

Ah ok. That I can manage :)

However my fingers are itching to add functionality to fcFEM (cables, beams, Shells, buckling, etc etc) and for that to become feasible I first want to optimisme speed. So starting a new advententure now (WB) is not really what I want.

leave it in your macro folder and track the macro folder. Use gitignore file to only track your fcFEM macro would be a possibility too.

I think it’s more complicated. The module I am trying to load is a Cython module (.pyx) and not a Python module. PyCharm is set up for this, but FreeCAD not. I need to study this a bit more.

Ahh I never habe never worked with cython modules. You may make a separate topic in developer or python part of the forum about this. There might be more people know about such problems

I found the following nice explanation: https://nyu-cds.github.io/python-cython/02-executing/ and will give it a try
