このページにはフォーラムでユーザーが作成したり議論した中から集めたFreeCAD用Pythonコードのサンプル、コード片、コードの一部を集めて載せています。あなたのスクリプトの参考にしてください・・・
典型的なInitGui.pyファイル
全てのモジュールにはメインモジュールファイルに加えてメインGUIにモジュールを挿入するためのInitGui.pyファイルが含まれていなければなりません。これはその単純な例です。
class ScriptWorkbench (Workbench):
MenuText = "Scripts"
def Initialize(self):
import Scripts # assuming Scripts.py is your module
list = ["Script_Cmd"] # That list must contain command names, that can be defined in Scripts.py
self.appendToolbar("My Scripts",list)
Gui.addWorkbench(ScriptWorkbench())
典型的なモジュールファイル
モジュールが行う処理の全てが記載されているメインモジュールファイルの例です。前の例で呼び出されるScripts.pyファイルです。自作のコマンドの全てをここに記載します。
import FreeCAD, FreeCADGui
class ScriptCmd:
def Activated(self):
# Here your write what your ScriptCmd does...
FreeCAD.Console.PrintMessage('Hello, World!')
def GetResources(self):
return {'Pixmap' : 'path_to_an_icon/myicon.png', 'MenuText': 'Short text', 'ToolTip': 'More detailed text'}
FreeCADGui.addCommand('Script_Cmd', ScriptCmd())
新しいファイルタイプをインポート
FreeCADでは簡単に新しいファイルタイプ用のインポート処理を作成することができます。FreeCADはデータを開かれているドキュメントからインポートするか、たんに直接新しいファイルタイプを開くかを区別しません。やらなければならないのは新しいファイル拡張子を FreeCADのリストに追加し、そのファイルを読み込んで欲しいFreeCADオブジェクトを作成するコードを書くことだけです：
リストに新しいファイル拡張子を追加するためには以下の行をInitGui.pyに追加しなければなりません：
# Assumes Import_Ext.py is the file that has the code for opening and reading .ext files
FreeCAD.addImportType("Your new File Type (*.ext)","Import_Ext")
# .extファイルを開いて読み込むためのコードがあるファイルをImport_Ext.pyとします
FreeCAD.addImportType("Your new File Type (*.ext)","Import_Ext")
Import_Ext.pyファイルには以下のように書きます：
def open(filename):
doc=App.newDocument()
# here you do all what is needed with filename, read, classify data, create corresponding FreeCAD objects
doc.recompute()
新しいファイルタイプへのドキュメントのエクスポートも以下の行を使用する以外は同様にして行います：
FreeCAD.addExportType("Your new File Type (*.ext)","Export_Ext")
ラインの追加
ラインは2点を持ちます：
import Part,PartGui
doc=App.activeDocument()
# ライン要素をドキュメントに追加し、その点を設定
l=Part.Line()
l.StartPoint=(0.0,0.0,0.0)
l.EndPoint=(1.0,1.0,1.0)
doc.addObject("Part::Feature","Line").Shape=l.toShape()
doc.recompute()
import Part,PartGui
doc=App.activeDocument()
# add a line element to the document and set its points
l=Part.LineSegment()
l.StartPoint=(0.0,0.0,0.0)
l.EndPoint=(1.0,1.0,1.0)
doc.addObject("Part::Feature","Line").Shape=l.toShape()
doc.recompute()
ポリゴンの追加
ポリゴンはつながった線分の集合（AutoCADでいうポリライン）です。線分の集合が閉じている必要はありません。
import Part,PartGui
doc=App.activeDocument()
n=list()
# create a 3D vector, set its coordinates and add it to the list
v=App.Vector(0,0,0)
n.append(v)
v=App.Vector(10,0,0)
n.append(v)
#... repeat for all nodes
# Create a polygon object and set its nodes
p=doc.addObject("Part::Polygon","Polygon")
p.Nodes=n
doc.recompute()
グループに対するオブジェクトの追加と削除
doc=App.activeDocument()
grp=doc.addObject("App::DocumentObjectGroup", "Group")
lin=doc.addObject("Part::Feature", "Line")
grp.addObject(lin) # adds the lin object to the group grp
grp.removeObject(lin) # removes the lin object from the group grp
注意： グループにグループを追加することも可能です・・・
メッシュの追加
import Mesh
doc=App.activeDocument()
# create a new empty mesh
m = Mesh.Mesh()
# build up box out of 12 facets
m.addFacet(0.0,0.0,0.0, 0.0,0.0,1.0, 0.0,1.0,1.0)
m.addFacet(0.0,0.0,0.0, 0.0,1.0,1.0, 0.0,1.0,0.0)
m.addFacet(0.0,0.0,0.0, 1.0,0.0,0.0, 1.0,0.0,1.0)
m.addFacet(0.0,0.0,0.0, 1.0,0.0,1.0, 0.0,0.0,1.0)
m.addFacet(0.0,0.0,0.0, 0.0,1.0,0.0, 1.0,1.0,0.0)
m.addFacet(0.0,0.0,0.0, 1.0,1.0,0.0, 1.0,0.0,0.0)
m.addFacet(0.0,1.0,0.0, 0.0,1.0,1.0, 1.0,1.0,1.0)
m.addFacet(0.0,1.0,0.0, 1.0,1.0,1.0, 1.0,1.0,0.0)
m.addFacet(0.0,1.0,1.0, 0.0,0.0,1.0, 1.0,0.0,1.0)
m.addFacet(0.0,1.0,1.0, 1.0,0.0,1.0, 1.0,1.0,1.0)
m.addFacet(1.0,1.0,0.0, 1.0,1.0,1.0, 1.0,0.0,1.0)
m.addFacet(1.0,1.0,0.0, 1.0,0.0,1.0, 1.0,0.0,0.0)
# scale to a edge langth of 100
m.scale(100.0)
# add the mesh to the active document
me=doc.addObject("Mesh::Feature","Cube")
me.Mesh=m
円弧または円の追加
import Part
doc = App.activeDocument()
c = Part.Circle()
c.Radius=10.0
f = doc.addObject("Part::Feature", "Circle") # create a document with a circle feature
f.Shape = c.toShape() # Assign the circle shape to the shape property
doc.recompute()
オブジェクト表現へのアクセスと変更
FreeCADドキュメント内の各オブジェクトは関連付けられたビュー表現オブジェクトを持ち、そのビュー表現オブジェクトはそのオブジェクトがどのように表示されるかを定義する色、ライン幅などの全てのプロパティを保持しています。
gad=Gui.activeDocument() # access the active document containing all
# view representations of the features in the
# corresponding App document
v=gad.getObject("Cube") # access the view representation to the Mesh feature 'Cube'
v.ShapeColor # prints the color to the console
v.ShapeColor=(1.0,1.0,1.0) # sets the shape color to white
Pythonから3Dビューアーのマウスイベントを監視
Inventorフレームワークでは 複数のコールバック用ノードをビューアーへのシーングラフへ追加することができます。デフォルトではFreeCADはビューアーごとに一つのコールバック用ノードがインストールされており、それを使うとグローバルまたはスタティックなC++関数を追加することができます。適切なPythonバインディングではこのテクニックをPythonコードから利用するためのメソッドが提供されています。
App.newDocument()
v=Gui.activeDocument().activeView()
#This class logs any mouse button events. As the registered callback function fires twice for 'down' and
#'up' events we need a boolean flag to handle this.
class ViewObserver:
def logPosition(self, info):
down = (info["State"] == "DOWN")
pos = info["Position"]
if (down):
FreeCAD.Console.PrintMessage("Clicked on position: ("+str(pos[0])+", "+str(pos[1])+")\n")
o = ViewObserver()
c = v.addEventCallback("SoMouseButtonEvent",o.logPosition)
このクラスは全てのマウスボタンイベントを記録します。登録されたコールバック関数は'down'イベントと'up'イベントで # 二回、ファイヤーします。これをハンドリングするためのブール値フラグが必要です。
さあ、3Dビューアーの領域のどこかをピックして出力ウィンドウにメッセージが表示されるのを見てください。監視を終了するには次のようにします。
v.removeEventCallback("SoMouseButtonEvent",c)
次のイベント型がサポートされています。
- SoEvent -- 全ての種類のイベント
- SoButtonEvent -- 全てのマウスボタンイベントとキーイベント
- SoLocation2Event -- 2D動作イベント（通常はマウス動作）
- SoMotion3Event -- 3D動作イベント（通常はスペースボール）
- SoKeyboardEvent -- キーダウンイベントとキーアップイベント
- SoMouseButtonEvent -- マウスのボタンダウンイベントとボタンアップイベント
- SoSpaceballButtonEvent -- スペースボールのボタンダウンイベントとボタンアップイベント
addEventCallback()によって登録されるPython関数は辞書を要求します。検知されたイベントに従って辞書には様々なキーが保持されます。
全てのイベントは次のキーを持ちます：
- Type -- イベント型の名前、つまりSoMouseEvent、SoLocation2Event、・・・などです。
- Time -- 文字列形式での現在時刻
- Position -- マウス位置を表す二つの整数のタプル
- ShiftDown -- ブール値。Shiftが押されている場合はtrue、それ以外の場合はfalse。
- CtrlDown -- ブール値。Ctrlが押されている場合はtrue、それ以外の場合はfalse。
- AltDown -- ブール値。Altが押されている場合はtrue、それ以外の場合はfalse。
全てのボタンイベント、つまりキーボードイベント、マウスイベント、スペースボールイベントの場合：
- State -- ボタンが離された場合は'UP'、押された場合は'DOWN'、それ以外の場合は'UNKNOWN'の文字列
キーボードイベントの場合：
- Key -- 押されたキーの文字
マウスボタンイベントの場合：
- Button -- 押されたボタン。BUTTON1、・・・、BUTTON5など。
スペースボールイベントの場合：
- Button -- 押されたボタン。BUTTON1、・・・、BUTTON7など。
そして最後にモーションイベントの場合：
- Translation -- 三つの浮動小数点数のタプル
- Rotation -- 回転のクォータニオン、つまり四つの浮動小数点数のタプル
Display keys pressed and Events command
This macro displays in the report view the keys pressed and all events command
App.newDocument()
v=Gui.activeDocument().activeView()
class ViewObserver:
def logPosition(self, info):
try:
down = (info["Key"])
FreeCAD.Console.PrintMessage(str(down)+"\n") # here the character pressed
FreeCAD.Console.PrintMessage(str(info)+"\n") # list all events command
FreeCAD.Console.PrintMessage("_______________________________________"+"\n")
except Exception:
None
o = ViewObserver()
c = v.addEventCallback("SoEvent",o.logPosition)
#v.removeEventCallback("SoEvent",c) # remove ViewObserver
Pythonでのシーングラフ操作
Coin用のPythonバインディングである'pivy'モジュールを使ってPythonでシーングラフを取得して変更することも可能です。
from pivy.coin import * # load the pivy module
view = Gui.ActiveDocument.ActiveView # get the active viewer
root = view.getSceneGraph() # the root is an SoSeparator node
root.addChild(SoCube())
view.fitAll()
pivyのPythonAPIはSWIGというツールを使って作られています。FreeCADで使用する場合、自作ノードをPythonで直接作成することはできません。 ただし、内部的な名称を使ってノードを作成することはできます。'SoFCSelection'型のインスタンスは次のようにして作成することが可能です：
type = SoType.fromName("SoFCSelection")
node = type.createInstance()
シーングラフに対するオブジェクトの追加と削除
シーングラフへの新しいノードの追加は以下のようにして行うことができます。オブジェクトのジオメトリー、座標、マテリアルの情報の追加のためには常にSoSeparatorの追加が必要なことに注意してください。次の例では (0,0,0)から(10,0,0):に引かれた赤いラインを追加しています。
from pivy import coin
sg = Gui.ActiveDocument.ActiveView.getSceneGraph()
co = coin.SoCoordinate3()
pts = [[0,0,0],[10,0,0]]
co.point.setValues(0,len(pts),pts)
ma = coin.SoBaseColor()
ma.rgb = (1,0,0)
li = coin.SoLineSet()
li.numVertices.setValue(2)
no = coin.SoSeparator()
no.addChild(co)
no.addChild(ma)
no.addChild(li)
sg.addChild(no)
削除は次の様にします：
sg.removeChild(no)

コンボビューへのタブの追加
次のコードを使うとFreeCADのコンボビューの"Project"タブ、"Tasks"タブの隣にタブを追加することができます。またuiファイルを直接そのタブに読み込むためにuicモジュールを使用しています。
The python code produced by the Ui python compiler (the tool that converts qt-designer .ui files into python code) generally looks like this (it is simple, you can also code it directly in python):
class myWidget_Ui(object):
def setupUi(self, myWidget):
myWidget.setObjectName("my Nice New Widget")
myWidget.resize(QtCore.QSize(QtCore.QRect(0,0,300,100).size()).expandedTo(myWidget.minimumSizeHint())) # sets size of the widget
self.label = QtGui.QLabel(myWidget) # creates a label
self.label.setGeometry(QtCore.QRect(50,50,200,24)) # sets its size
self.label.setObjectName("label") # sets its name, so it can be found by name
def retranslateUi(self, draftToolbar): # built-in QT function that manages translations of widgets
myWidget.setWindowTitle(QtGui.QApplication.translate("myWidget", "My Widget", None, QtGui.QApplication.UnicodeUTF8))
self.label.setText(QtGui.QApplication.translate("myWidget", "Welcome to my new widget!", None, QtGui.QApplication.UnicodeUTF8))
Then, all you need to do is to create a reference to the FreeCAD Qt window, insert a custom widget into it, and "transform" this widget into yours with the Ui code we just made:
app = QtGui.qApp
FCmw = app.activeWindow() # the active qt window, = the freecad window since we are inside it
# FCmw = FreeCADGui.getMainWindow() # use this line if the 'addDockWidget' error is declared
myNewFreeCADWidget = QtGui.QDockWidget() # create a new dckwidget
myNewFreeCADWidget.ui = myWidget_Ui() # load the Ui script
myNewFreeCADWidget.ui.setupUi(myNewFreeCADWidget) # setup the ui
FCmw.addDockWidget(QtCore.Qt.RightDockWidgetArea,myNewFreeCADWidget) # add the widget to the main window
Adding a Tab to the Combo View
The following code allows you to add a tab to the FreeCAD ComboView, besides the "Project" and "Tasks" tabs. It also uses the uic module to load an ui file directly in that tab.
# create new Tab in ComboView
from PySide import QtGui,QtCore
#from PySide import uic
def getMainWindow():
"returns the main window"
# using QtGui.qApp.activeWindow() isn't very reliable because if another
# widget than the mainwindow is active (e.g. a dialog) the wrong widget is
# returned
toplevel = QtGui.qApp.topLevelWidgets()
for i in toplevel:
if i.metaObject().className() == "Gui::MainWindow":
return i
raise Exception("No main window found")
def getComboView(mw):
dw=mw.findChildren(QtGui.QDockWidget)
for i in dw:
if str(i.objectName()) == "Combo View":
return i.findChild(QtGui.QTabWidget)
elif str(i.objectName()) == "Python Console":
return i.findChild(QtGui.QTabWidget)
raise Exception ("No tab widget found")
mw = getMainWindow()
tab = getComboView(getMainWindow())
tab2=QtGui.QDialog()
tab.addTab(tab2,"A Special Tab")
#uic.loadUi("/myTaskPanelforTabs.ui",tab2)
tab2.show()
#tab.removeTab(2)
Enable or disable a window
from PySide import QtGui
mw=FreeCADGui.getMainWindow()
dws=mw.findChildren(QtGui.QDockWidget)
# objectName may be :
# "Report view"
# "Tree view"
# "Property view"
# "Selection view"
# "Combo View"
# "Python console"
# "draftToolbar"
for i in dws:
if i.objectName() == "Report view":
dw=i
break
va=dw.toggleViewAction()
va.setChecked(True) # True or False
dw.setVisible(True) # True or False

PS: Usually the angles are given in Radian to convert :
- angle in Degrees to Radians :
- Angle in radian = pi * (angle in degree) / 180
- Angle in radian = math.radians(angle in degree)
- angle in Radians to Degrees :
- Angle in degree = 180 * (angle in radian) / pi
- Angle in degree = math.degrees(angle in radian)
