that's how it is, only the tools are not added through the add button and the error is not displayed.

a good and quick way to find -

grep -ir experimental .FreeCAD/

.FreeCAD/user.cfg: <FCBool Name="EnableExperimentalFeatures" Value="1"/>

don't ask "how" but cheated - my cutter is the default tool, the path is created, but the visualization doesn't work.
What am I doing wrong?

Nothing happens to me either when I press this button. Moreover, you can hang on, but not on this button.
I edit simply by opening the file from the Shape folder, then correcting the installation description file in the Bit folder, and after that I add the installation to the library from the Bit folder. Be careful not to confuse the description file with case sensitive letters, which point to the model file in Shape. I suppose that you can use both absolute and relative paths in the description file.


There is no result - yes, the tool has created, I see its real form, it does not affect the form of the created path in any way (and should not), the form of the tool, real, important and necessary for the visualization, which (so far) I have not succeeded.

I have started looking at using the new tool definition in simulation:

Simulation.webm
(233.66 KiB) Downloaded 71 times


No material is removed yet as the tool definition need to be modified in the simulation and the position of the tool isn't correct.

Big thanks to mlampert for all your work on these tools.

Thanks,

Dan
