Strange behavior with Screw maker macro #8

Closed kkoksvik closed 9 years ago

kkoksvik commented 9 years ago

Now pluginmanager installs and runs fine.

I can install Freecad-macros and run all under My Tests.

Trying to install Screew Maker makro it installs to:

~/.FreeCAD/Macros/screw_maker.py/screw_maker.py

When trying to run it:

!fn="/home/kjetil/.FreeCAD/Macros/screw_maker1_7.py";exec open(fn).read()! fn="/home/kjetil/.FreeCAD/Macros/screw_maker1_7.py";exec open(fn).read() Traceback (most recent call last): --> File "", line 73, in run --> File "", line 1, in --> IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/home/kjetil/.FreeCAD/Macros/screw_maker1_7.py'

If i move screw_maker1_7.py to /home/kjetil/.FreeCAD/Macros/screw_maker1_7.py

it fails to run with the following output.

!fn="/home/kjetil/.FreeCAD/Macros/screw_maker1_7.py";exec open(fn).read()! PySyde is used fn="/home/kjetil/.FreeCAD/Macros/screw_maker1_7.py";exec open(fn).read() Traceback (most recent call last): --> File "", line 73, in run --> File "", line 1, in --> File "", line 2887, in --> File "", line 2889, in screw --> NameError: name 'Ui_ScrewMaker' is not defined

I have a local version of the screw maker macro without this error (dialog comes up) but with an error on another place (no screw generated) . When I have fixed the problem I will publish the new version.

If you would give me a list of the modules/macros that work for you I could test them on my system.

When I move screw_maker1_7.py file directly under .FreeCAD/Macros i can execute manually from the Macros menu. It creates screws perfectly. I can not run it from the Pluginmanager

I have placed a version screw make macro into the FreeCAD macro project. https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD-macros Yes there is an other way to hold the window open.

It works now as dock window. I still have a problem to run it with copy and paste see: http://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=10966

You have to update FreeCAD-macros (and Pluginloader)

Then screw maker should run from the pluginmanager

My idea is to bring the macros step by step to the FreeCAD-macros git project we have: solid sweep screw maker

for the sheet metal unfold there is a workbench by JMG, he has done something last days and I wait until his git is updated - so no activity for the unfold macro needed.
