Frecad 0.19 Possible bug in assembly4

[jruiz]

Playing with Assembly 4 workbench found the following:
If in a file FA a link to spreadsheet in another file FB is made, Assembly4 model fail when inserting a link to external part, skipping the step of placing linked part and in the report view the message:
"
created object
Running the Python command 'Asm4_placeLink' failed:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "~/FreeCAD/Mod/Assembly4/placeLinkCmd.py", line 111, in Activated
if hasattr(obj,'LinkedObject') and obj.LinkedObject.isDerivedFrom('App::Part'):

'tuple' object has no attribute 'isDerivedFrom'
"
appears.
If the spreadsheet link is deleted, Assembly4 works as expected.

...
If the spreadsheet link is deleted, Assembly4 works as expected.

hello, thank-you for your bug report, but I'm not sure to completely understand what you do: is there a third file FC involved, where you do the linking of FA ? Could-you provide a screenshot of your model tree with all parts and links ?

[jruiz]

is there a third file FC involved...?

Nope.

where you do the linking of FA ?

In FA I make a link to the spreadsheet of FB

Hope that the attached (sequence of) images let me explain better that my poor english ...

[Zolko]

In FA I make a link to the spreadsheet of FB

so you have a file FB with a spreadsheet and a part. Then, in file FA you make an empty link, you assign the spreadsheet of FB to it, and then in FA you create an Assembly4 Model and you link the part from FB using Assembly4 tools ...

1) you shouldn't do horrible things like that
2) it's still a bug, and Assembly4 shouldn't fall for it

I made an update to the workbench (v0.7.10), can you please update (through the Addon Manager) and check again whether it works better now ?

1) you shouldn't do horrible things like that

Just wondering. Could you order things as you see their ugliness increase?
Do you realize that your comment is highly subjective?

2) it's still a bug, and Assembly4 shouldn't fall for it

Assembly4 I am using is updated to version v0.7.10

Assembly4 I am using is updated to version v0.7.10

And ? Do you still get the same bug ?

[jruiz]

Yes.
Since my first post here i was using version v0.7.10 of Assembly4.

[Zolko]

Since my first post here i was using version v0.7.10 of Assembly4.

that's obvious BS because I uploaded that version 30 minutes ago. See the Release Notes.

What exactly you mean with "BS"?

...because I uploaded that version 30 minutes ago. See the Release Notes.

After a quick use of the addon manager for updating Assembly4. I got a message I did not understand (as you could note, english is not my spoken language) and I assumed it was updated, (Very first time I got that behavior from the addon manager).
It is very curious that you use the word random in the release notes

2020.01.21 (version 0.7.10) :
bug-fix to not fall for random criss-cross linking of objects

when the behavior we got from Assembly4 is completely deterministic.

What message did you get? Did you manage to update? Is the bug solved?

Also, what is your native language? If it's spanish I speak it and can help you out.
