Gui::PrefFontBox is not shown in FreeCAD preferences editor

[Suraj Dadral]

Hello everyone,

I am trying to create preferences page for Reinforcement workbench.
The problem is, Gui::PrefFontBox is not shown in FreeCAD preferences editor. Here is the ui file I am trying to load using command:

Code: Select all

FreeCADGui.addPreferencePage(<path to ui file>, "TestWb")

Here is minimal example to reproduce issue:

test_PrefFontBox.ui

And output on my system:

TestPrefFontBox.png (60.76 KiB) Viewed 1062 times

Any pointer in right direction will be really helpful.

Hi Suraj, What is the output if you use QFontComboBox instead of Gui::PrefFontBox?

Hi Suraj, What is the output if you use QFontComboBox instead of Gui::PrefFontBox?

Hi Amrit,

Using QFontComboBox, here is the output:

QFontBox.png (62.49 KiB) Viewed 1041 times

The output looks fine.
But, I don't think if we can use QFontComboBox to modify preferences using FreeCAD preferences editor?

Thanks,

There is one problem left is the preferences are not saved or loaded using Gui::PrefFontBox.
