lost functionality A2Plus 442>>446 Suppressed property

Post by chrtech1 »

In A2plus 4.42 I was able to toggle the Suppressed constraint property (turn the constraint off and back on). I updated to 4.46 and can no longer do that. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance, today seems to be my day.

Select the constraint and hit 'space' on keyboard to toggle the suppressed property.

The behaviour changed during last versions. Please have a look at the documentation, where is been written:

'Constraints can be disabled by changing its visibility. This is done by selecting the constraint in the tree view and pressing Space. This toggles the property Suppressed. A suppressed constraint is not taken into account when the assembly is solved.'

The documentation can be found here: https://wiki.freecadweb.org/A2plus_Workbench
