0.19.18686 -> 0.19.19311: file(s) broken?! TechDraw?

[IngoMeier]

Hi!
Not sure, if this is TechDraw specific, or a more common problem.
Just wanted to open an "old" file created in FreeCAD_0.19.18686_x64_LP_12.1.2_PY3QT5-WinVS2015 with FreeCAD_0.19.19311_x64_LP_12.1.2_PY3QT5-WinVS2015 and I get empty TechDraw pages and the following output:

When I open the file with FreeCAD_0.19.18686_x64_LP_12.1.2_PY3QT5-WinVS2015 I get the following output:

I further noticed, when I move FreeCAD_0.19.18686_x64_LP_12.1.2_PY3QT5-WinVS2015 to a different location, start it again and load the file, I get errors like:
DrawGeomHatch::getDecodedSpecsFromFile not able to open ............./data/Mod/TechDraw/PAT/FCPAT.pat!
Under normal circumstances there shouldn't be full absolute file pathes in the FCStd file, right?
FreeCAD_0.19.19311_x64_LP_12.1.2_PY3QT5-WinVS2015 seem to ignore these absolute file pathes.

Thank you very much in advance for any help!

I will try to create a small test case to show the problem.

Best regards,
Ingo

Additional information:
FreeCAD_0.19.18760_x64_LP_12.1.2_PY3QT5-WinVS2015 shows the same behaviour.
=> Where can I download versions between FreeCAD_0.19.18686_x64_LP_12.1.2_PY3QT5-WinVS2015 and FreeCAD_0.19.18760_x64_LP_12.1.2_PY3QT5-WinVS2015 for testing to narrow down to the break?

Even more information:
the Document.xml has 2.5 MB. How can I find the "End of document reached" point?
Can I activate any extra logging or additional debug information?

More:
Can't create a test case so far. I have only the large 60 MB FCStd . Will try to strip it down.

I was able to strip off a lot of things: 187kB

The first line above is the most important one. It says that only part of the Document was restored. This is probably the cause of all the rest of the messages.

Until quite recently, hatch file locations were stored as absolute file paths. The hatch files are now embedded in the document.

the Document.xml has 2.5 MB. How can I find the "End of document reached" point?
Can I activate any extra logging or additional debug information?

Not that I know off. I've only seen this once before and it took a lot of digging to find.

Can't create a test case so far. I have only the large 60 MB FCStd . Will try to strip it down.

going to be hard to fix without a file. Dropbox? GoogleDrive?

[IngoMeier]

I have attached a stripped file in the meantime to my first post.

0.19.18686 does not report the end of the document.xml, only newer versions

[wandererfan]

Not sure, if this is TechDraw specific

TD problem for sure. There is a glitch in save/restore of Centerlines. Here is your file without Centerlines, it should save/restore fine in current versions.

More when I figure out what's up with CLs.

[wandererfan]

If you go into Tools>Edit Parameters... and add/set Preferences/Mod/TechDraw/General/restoreCosmetic = false, you should be able to load other files with this problem.

You will lose your CosmeticVertexes and Centerlines, but the file should load everything else.

@wandererfan
Thank you very much!
(Now I have to be patient and wait for the next version)

@mod
Thread can be shifted to TechDraw

@wandererfan
Changing the setting works, but ...
Sorry to bother you again. Have you seen the difference between 0.19.18686 and 0.19.19311:

FC_TD_error.png (95.82 KiB) Viewed 778 times

Top half is ok (0.19.18686), but bottom is not ok:
The section A-A in the top right and (therefor) the detailview 2 is wrong

I think your document originated before the changes outlined here: https://www.forum.freecadweb.org/viewto ... 35&t=41231.

Flipping section A-A is easy, just change the XDirection property from -Z to +Z.
You should be able to do that with the detail too, but it looks like there is something wrong there. I'll have to look into that.
