on Line 181 i call a function. On line 184 - 185 i define the function (yet comment out). When i run the macro, i get an error

Code: Select all

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/user/.FreeCAD/Macro/Thread.FCMacro", line 186, in <module>
    Thread()
  File "/home/user/.FreeCAD/Macro/Thread.FCMacro", line 9, in __init__
    self.initUI()
  File "/home/user/.FreeCAD/Macro/Thread.FCMacro", line 181, in initUI
    self.button_outer_thread_section_view.clicked.connect(self.xxxx)
<class 'AttributeError'>: 'Thread' object has no attribute 'xxxx'

, as expectet. But i get the GUI

But when i uncomment the line 184 - 185, the script does not work (or it does work but do not get a GUI, because i do not get an error message). Has someone an idea why. Work with this https://wiki.freecadweb.org/PySide_Inte ... e_Examples documentation.

Note: i am not a python guy, sorry when the question is dumb. Also note: in the docu there is used PySide with Python 2, i use Python 3 with Pyside 2, but is on a small GUI like that a difference? I have not find a PySide 2 docu.

Just for unterstanding what i want to achieve. Some macros for TechDraw for threads, like that.

2.png (215.23 KiB) Viewed 365 times

1.png (152.43 KiB) Viewed 365 times

Except the circle, erverthing can be done with the GUI in 0.19 , but it is very slow to handle. So i want to make a small macro with GUI for that.

Sorry for bad english

This is because your Thread() instance is garbage-collected.
Your last line should be:

Code: Select all

thread = Thread()

As you inherit QWidget, ideally you should even remove the 'self.show()' from 'initUI()' and end your file with :

Code: Select all

thread = Thread()
thread.show()

please fix typo in thread title (should be 'macro')
