Maybe you need a special feature, go into Macros_recipes and Code_snippets, Topological_data_scripting.

Mario,

I'm maintaining the Daily Builds and Stable Releases PPA, and I wrote the "Please read first" topic (and its French counterpart). Why would you think I would use that utterly obsolete, badly packaged and buggy development version from the Ubuntu repository? I spend much of my time here telling newcomers to stop using that POS version which should have never been added to the Ubuntu repo in the first place...

But I should have posted my FreeCAD info nonetheless, so I guess I'm the one to blame. ;)

I had this error both with the latest 0.15.4671 release and the 0.16 development snapshot.

OS: Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS
Word size of OS: 64-bit

With your latest change, the macro won't even load its window.

Code: Select all

<unknown exception traceback><type 'exceptions.SyntaxError'>: ("(unicode error) 'utf8' codec can't decode byte 0xb0 in position 0: invalid start byte", ('/home/normand2/Dessins/Macros_FreeCAD/Macro_FCCircularText.FCMacro', 621, None, 'self.DS_InclinaisonX.setSuffix(" X\xb0")\n'))
If I change my macro path to ~/.FreeCAD/Macros, same error:

Code: Select all

<unknown exception traceback><type 'exceptions.SyntaxError'>: ("(unicode error) 'utf8' codec can't decode byte 0xb0 in position 0: invalid start byte", ('/home/normand2/.FreeCAD/Macros/Macro_FCCircularText.FCMacro', 621, None, 'self.DS_InclinaisonX.setSuffix(" X\xb0")\n'))
When I open your macro with a text editor, I'm getting a warning:

hi
hi
I work with Ubuntu http://www.linuxliveusb.com/ USB key if I use the live mode, I do not know how to update so I do with the backup versions that work with permanently fixed otherwise it is nothing sorry !!

For your new mistake you can replace lines 621,622,623 by those below

Code: Select all

         self.DS_InclinaisonX.setSuffix (unicode ("X°"))
         self.DS_InclinaisonY.setSuffix (unicode ("Y°"))
         self.DS_InclinaisonZ.setSuffix (unicode ("Z°"))
if there is still a mistake you can comment on these only serve to show the degree sign "°" and I do not understand because it has nothing to do with my last modification

Please tell me what I calquerai my macro on the changes it is for me the only method thank you
mario
_________________________________________________________

pour Ubuntu je travaille avec http://www.linuxliveusb.com/ sur clef USB si j'utilise le mode live , je ne sais pas faire de mise à jour donc je fais avec les versions avec sauvegarde permanantes qui fonctionnent sinon c'est rien du tout désolé !!

Pour votre nouvelle erreur vous pouvez remplacer les lignes 621, 622, 623 par celles ci

Code: Select all

        self.DS_InclinaisonX.setSuffix(unicode(" X°"))
        self.DS_InclinaisonY.setSuffix(unicode(" Y°"))
        self.DS_InclinaisonZ.setSuffix(unicode(" Z°"))
        
s'il y a encore une erreur vous pouvez les commenter elles ne servent qu'a afficher le signe degré "°" et je ne comprends pas car ça n'a rien à voir avec ma dernière modification

SVP dites moi quoi et je calquerai ma macro sur vos modifications c'est pour moi la seule méthode merci[/i]

EDIT: PS pour l'éditeur de texte sélectionnez un autre codage que utf8

Thanks Mario, to paraphrase your macro's default text: you're the best! :D

But I also needed to change lines 603 and 605:

Code: Select all

            MainWindow.setWindowFlags(PyQt4.QtCore.Qt.WindowStaysOnTopHint)        # PyQt4 cette fonction met la fen\EAtre en avant
        except Exception:
            MainWindow.setWindowFlags(PySide.QtCore.Qt.WindowStaysOnTopHint)       # PySide cette fonction met la fen\EAtre en avant
And replace "\EA" with "ê". In Gedit (Ubuntu's text editor), those codes were highlighted in red like those for the degree symbol.

This fixed the macro for me, and Gedit now opens the macro without errors.

If you created your LibeUSB key in persistent mode, you should be able to do software updates just like a regular install. Then it's just a matter of adding either of the FreeCAD PPA (Stable or Daily) to your software sources. After that you can open the Update Manager (Gestionnaire de mises à jour) to update your software packages. But I haven't used a LiveUSB in a long time.

that's exactly what I do et ça fonctionne très bien (an updated take much time)

I iron my macros and remove all accents
je vais repasser tutes mes macros et supprimer les accents

paste the link to github

merci pour vos tests

Does this macro work if FreeCAD 0.15 is running on Mac 10.10.5?
