Description

Gives information about the selected shape and can display a conversion of length, inclination (degrees, radians, grades, percent), area, volume and weight in different units (metric and imperial). The macro now also works for the elements of a sketch in edit mode.

Usage

Select an object and launch the application, or launch the application first and then select an object. The object is analyzed and a dialog opens showing the gathered information. With each new selection, the length unit is reset to mm and the angle unit to decimal degrees.

Sector 1: Document

• Document name
• Label and internal name of the object
• Internal Name of the object
• Sub element name and type of the object
• Type of the object

(you can checked to {{false}} the variable switch_setVisible_GBox_001_Document for hidden the Box)

Sector 2: Coordinates click mouse

• Coordinates X,Y and Z click to mouse
• The button creates point, axis, plane, copy vector axis from FreeCAD.Vector(-24.0, 240.0, 7.0)

(you can checked to {{false}} the variable switch_setVisible_GBox_002_Coordinate_Mouse for hidden the Box)

Sector 3: Color on point

• Color on point clicked.

  • value 0.0 to 1.0

• Line Edit display the color value in different formats: {{LineEdit|"3435973887" , "#cccccc" , "0xcccccc" , "204,204,204" , "(0.8,0.8,0.8)"}}

  • 3435973887 : Mode RVBA Int unsigned (format in FreeCAD preferences) Alpha = 255
  • #cccccc : Mode RVB Hexadecimal (Qt: setStyleSheet("color : #cccccc"))
  • 0xcccccc : Mode RVB Hexadecimal (Python: hex(0xcccccc)
  • \"204,204,204 \" : RVB decim: Mode RVB (Qt: setStyleSheet(u"QLineEdit {"background-color: rgb(204, 204, 204)};"))

  • (The number of decimals depend of the option \"x (Decimals)\")

• {{CheckBox|Sub.Objet}}: Change the color of the selected object or subobject. If this box is activated {{CheckBox|TRUE|Sub.Objet}} the face or sub Object selected is modified or duplicated. If it is not activated (default) the object is modified (color) or duplicated

• Coul. Obj: Change the color of the shape or the face depend of the choice. In case object Mesh or Points the complete object is colored.

• Dupl. Obj: Duplicates the face or the object depend to the chosen option. In the case of a Mesh object or Points the complete object is colored. Duplicate a Mesh object keeps the original and creates a solid shape. Duplicate a Points object keeps the original and creates a copy.

• {{SpinBox|0}}: Degree of transparency of the selected face or object depend on the option chosen 0 = opaque , 100 = transparent

Script

Copy the contents of the macro in a file named \"FCInfo.FCMacro\"

• Windows: the form is usually \" drive:\Users\your_user_name\AppData\Roaming\FreeCAD\ \"
• Ubuntu: the form is usually \" /home/your_user_name/.FreeCAD \".

Or, directly in the interface of FreeCAD The icon must be in the same directory as the macro. Download image positioning on the icon and then drag the mouse right click \"save as\" (do not change the name) PS: the code is too long to be contained in the wiki page (for the time being the wiki pages accept only 64 KB) the macro code has been placed in the forum Download the macro file on gist docked to right

{{CodeDownload|https://gist.github.com/mario52a/8d40ab6c018c2bde678f|last version Macro_FCInfo}}

(Or on the forum. ) PS: this macro uses getSelection() and the list of object begin to 1 ex: for a box Edge1 to Edge12 and the code in the console start at 0 ex: for a box Edge[0] to Edge[11] This is normal, the counting on arrays/lists inside OpenCascade always starts at 1 and not at 0.

Limitations

Always leave the button Exit. If one exits the program without going through the button Exit, the program remains in memory and continues to run and the display will remain in the \"view report\". You must leave FreeCAD to erase it from memory. Only the first 200 elements of the object are visible in the table. If there are more than 200 items in the object, a signal will be displayed by (! +200). The complete list of data is visible in the file saved by the button Save.

If the window macro is invisible after the run, see the bottom window :

project: read the file directly in a table. done matches the \"Edges\" and their coordinates done Association of a substance to its density inclination on the element rather than the global object done inlay right in the interface of FreeCAD done
