Usage

Použití

Vyberete objekt nebo spustíte aplikaci a vyberete objekt a zobrazí se řada informací. Jeho výpočty založené na jednotce FreeCADu, což je mm pro kažbý nový výběr, vrací vždy délku v mm a úhel v dekadických stupních.

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)

• 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

How do i exit from FreeCAD instead of Python?

instead:

self.window.hide()

and i adding the possibility display or not the "Error Message" window "False" by default, if you wand activate the warning window go to :
