How to install additional workbenches/ro

Descriere
Utilizatorii Power au extins FreeCAD cu diferite Ateliere de lucru externe personalizate, care nu sunt integrate în codul sursă al FreeCAD (încă!), dar sunt ușor de instalat pe un FreeCAD instalat deja. Aici vom acoperi metodele de instalare pentru diferite sisteme de operare.

Notă Începând cu versiunea 0.17, FreeCAD dispune de un manager addon din meniul Instrumente, care vă permite să instalați cu ușurință o serie de Ateliere externe. Instrucțiunile de mai jos sunt necesare numai dacă executați o versiune anterioară, sau dacă doriți să instalați un Ateliere de lucru care nu se află în lista oferită de managerul de aplicații.

Instalarea sub Windows
Metode de instalare Recomandate

Utilizați addons-installer from Github.

Pe durata Google Summer of Code 2016 studentul Mandeep Singh a început lucrul la o versiune îmbunătățită

versiunea (available here) dara această vrsiune necesită muncă suplimentară înainte de a fi integrată pe deplin în FreeCAD.

Metodă de instalare Alternativă “manual install”


 * download the workbench from github by clicking on the button “clone or download” on the github page (upper right corner) and choosing "Download ZIP"
 * unpack the downloaded archive on your local hard disk
 * within FreeCAD, locate the macro path by choosing “Edit > Preferences > General > Macro” and look for the ”Macro path”
 * supposed your Windows-Login is “User-Name” the default macro path is “C:\User-Name\Appdata\Roaming\FreeCAD”
 * within the macro-directory create (if not already present) a folder called “Mod”
 * within the folder mod create a folder with the name of the workbench, for example “Assembly2”
 * now move the unpacked files and sub-folders of the workbench to the just created workbench-folder
 * after restart of FreeCAD you should now have an entry in the workbench-pulldown-menu

Additional Recommendation for upating workbenches

Sub windows, atunci când se actulizează un atelier deja instalat, Windows păstrează vechile fișiere .py ca fișiere .pyc.

Deoarece acest lucru poate duce la probleme, este recomandat să dezinstalați atelierul de lucru, să reporniți FreeCAD și să instalați

noua versiune de atelier.

Instalare sub Linux (Ubuntu/Mint)
Metodă de instalare recomandată

Adding the community-ppa within the ppa-manager.

Installing the workbenches via synaptic packet manager.

Alternative installation method “Installing via Git”

FreeCAD you will now have a new workbench-entry called "Assembly 2". Once installed, use git to upgrade to the latest version through BASH as follows

Alternative installation method “manual install”


 * download the workbench from github by clicking on the button “clone or download” on the github page (upper right corner) and choosing "Download ZIP"
 * unpack the downloaded archive on your local hard disk
 * within FreeCAD, locate the macro path by choosing “Edit > Preferences > General > Macro” and look for the ”Macro path”
 * by default, the macro directory is the (hidden) "/.FreeCAD"-directory in your home-directory
 * within the macro-directory create (if not already present) a folder called “Mod”
 * within the folder "mod" create a folder with the name of the workbench, for example “Assembly2”
 * now move the unpacked files and sub-folders of the workbench to the just created workbench-folder
 * after restart of FreeCAD you should now have an entry in the workbench-pulldown-menu

Installing on Mac
Recommended installation method

Alternative installation method “manual install” - here a description for the workbench "assembly2"
 * download the git repository as ZIP
 * assuming FreeCAD is installed in "/Applications/FreeCAD/v0.15", go to "/Applications/FreeCAD/v0.15" in the Browser, and select FreeCAD.app
 * right-click and select "Show Package Contents", a new window will appear with a folder named "Contents"
 * single-click on the folder "Contents" and select the folder "Mod"
 * in the folder "Mod" create a new folder named "assembly2"
 * unzip downloaded repository in the folder "Contents/Mod/assembly2"

Copy or unzip the drawing dimensioning folder to the directory FreeCAD.app/Contents/Mod where FreeCAD.app is the folder where FreeCAD is installed.

General troubleshooting

 * Don’t use special characters (for example german umlauts) in your windows user name, otherwise FreeCAD will not recognize files and folders in the macro path
 * If you have already set up a user name with special characters either create a new user name or point the macro path to a directory not using special characters
 * Workbench still not showing up ? In FreeCAD, choose “Tools > Customize > Workbenches” and make sure it is not set to invisible
 * Notes for users with 32-bit system and FreeCAD 0.16.6706 . After attempts to install, the additional Workbenches may not be available. In this case
 * hold the Report panel open while starting FreeCAD, and read the error
