In this page we will show how to build a simple Qt Dialog with [http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/designer-manual.html Qt Designer], Qt's official tool for designing interfaces, then convert it to python code, then use it inside FreeCAD. I'll assume in the example that you know how to edit and run python scripts already, and that you can do simple things in a terminal window such as navigate, etc. You must also have, of course, pyqt installed. |

This page contains examples, pieces, chunks of FreeCAD python code collected from users experiences and discussions on the forums. Read and use it as a start for your own scripts... |
|||
== Designing the dialog == |
|||
In CAD applications, designing a good UI (User Interface) is very important. About everything the user will do will be through some piece of interface: reading dialog boxes, pressing buttons, choosing between icons, etc. So it is very important to think carefully to what you want to do, how you want the user to behave, and how will be the workflow of your action. |
|||
There are a couple of concepts to know when designing interface: |
|||
* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modal_window Modal/non-modal dialogs]: A modal dialog appears in front of your screen, stopping the action of the main window, forcing the user to respond to the dialog, while a non-modal dialog doesn't stop you from working on the main window. In some case the first is better, in other cases not. |
|||
* Identifying what is required and what is optional: Make sure the user knows what he must do. Label everything with proper description, use tooltips, etc. |
|||
* Separating commands from parameters: This is usually done with buttons and text input fields. The user knows that clicking a button will produce an action while changing a value inside a text field will change a parameter somewhere. Nowadays, though, users usually know well what is a button, what is an input field, etc. The interface toolkit we are using, Qt, is a state-of-the-art toolkit, and we won't have to worry much about making things clear, since they will already be very clear by themselves. |
|||
=== A typical InitGui.py file === |
|||
So, now that we have well defined what we will do, it's time to open the qt designer. Let's design a very simple dialog, like this: |
|||
Every module must contain, besides your main module file, an InitGui.py file, responsible for inserting the module in the main Gui. This is an example of a simple one. |
|||
{{Code|code= |
|||
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()) |
|||
}} |
|||
=== A typical module file === |
|||
[[Image:Qttestdialog.jpg]] |
|||
This is an example of a main module file, containing everything your module does. It is the Scripts.py file invoked by the previous example. You can have all your custom commands here. |
|||
{{Code|code= |
|||
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()) |
|||
}} |
|||
=== Import a new filetype === |
|||
We will then use this dialog in FreeCAD to produce a nice rectangular plane. You might find it not very useful to produce nice rectangular planes, but it will be easy to change it later to do more complex things. When you open it, Qt Designer looks like this: |
|||
Making an importer for a new filetype in FreeCAD is easy. FreeCAD doesn't consider that you import data in an opened document, but rather that you simply can directly open the new filetype. So what you need to do is to add the new file extension to FreeCAD's list of known extensions, and write the code that will read the file and create the FreeCAD objects you want: |
|||
This line must be added to the InitGui.py file to add the new file extension to the list: |
|||
[[Image:Qtdesigner-screenshot.jpg]] |
|||
It is very simple to use. On the left bar you have elements that can be dragged on your widget. On the right side you have properties panels displaying all kinds of editable properties of selected elements. So, begin with creating a new widget. Select "Dialog without buttons", since we don't want the default Ok/Cancel buttons. Then, drag on your widget '''3 labels''', one for the title, one for writing "Height" and one for writing "Width". Labels are simple texts that appear on your widget, just to inform the user. If you select a label, on the right side will appear several properties that you can change if you want, such as font style, height, etc. |
|||
Then, add '''2 LineEdits''', which are text fields that the user can fill in, one for the height and one for the width. Here too, we can edit properties. For example, why not set a default value? For example 1.00 for each. This way, when the user will see the dialog, both values will be filled already and if he is satisfied he can directly press the button, saving precious time. Then, add a '''PushButton''', which is the button the user will need to press after he filled the 2 fields. |
|||
Note that I chose very simple controls here, but Qt has many more options, for example you could use Spinboxes instead of LineEdits, etc... Have a look at what is available, you will surely have other ideas. |
|||
That's about all we need to do in Qt Designer. One last thing, though, let's rename all our elements with easier names, so it will be easier to identify them in our scripts: |
|||
[[Image:Qtpropeditor.jpg]] |
|||
== Converting our dialog to python == |
|||
Now, let's save our widget somewhere. It will be saved as an .ui file, that we will easily convert to python script with pyuic. On windows, the pyuic program is bundled with pyqt (to be verified), on linux you probably will need to install it separately from your package manager (on debian-based systems, it is part of the pyqt4-dev-tools package). To do the conversion, you'll need to open a terminal window (or a command prompt window on windows), navigate to where you saved your .ui file, and issue: |
|||
{{Code|code= |
{{Code|code= |
||
# Assumes Import_Ext.py is the file that has the code for opening and reading .ext files |
|||
pyuic mywidget.ui > mywidget.py |
|||
FreeCAD.addImportType("Your new File Type (*.ext)","Import_Ext") |
|||
}} |
}} |
||
Then in the Import_Ext.py file: |
|||
In Windows pyuic.py is located in "C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\PyQt4\uic\pyuic.py" |
|||
For conversion create a batch file called "compQt4.bat: |
|||
{{Code|code= |
{{Code|code= |
||
def open(filename): |
|||
@"C:\Python27\python" "C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\PyQt4\uic\pyuic.py" -x %1.ui > %1.py |

doc=App.newDocument() |
|||
# here you do all what is needed with filename, read, classify data, create corresponding FreeCAD objects |
|||
doc.recompute() |
|||
}} |
}} |
||
To export your document to some new filetype works the same way, except that you use: |
|||
In the DOS console type without extension |
|||
FreeCAD.addExportType("Your new File Type (*.ext)","Export_Ext") |
|||
=== Adding a line === |
|||
A line simply has 2 points. |

|||
l.EndPoint=(1.0,1.0,1.0) |

|||
doc.recompute() |

}} |
}} |

=== Adding a polygon === |
|||
<!--T:55--> |
|||
A polygon is simply a set of connected line segments (a polyline in AutoCAD). It doesn't need to be closed. |
|||
Since FreeCAD progressively moved away from PyQt after version 0.13, in favour of [http://qt-project.org/wiki/PySide PySide] (Choose your PySide install [http://pyside.readthedocs.org/en/latest/building/ building PySide]), to make the file based on PySide now you have to use: |
|||
{{Code|code= |
|||
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() |
|||
}} |
|||
=== Adding and removing an object to a group === |
|||
{{Code|code= |
{{Code|code= |
||
doc=App.activeDocument() |
|||
pyside-uic mywidget.ui -o mywidget.py |
|||
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 |
|||
}} |

Into Linux : to do |
|||
=== Accessing and changing representation of an object === |
|||
Each object in a FreeCAD document has an associated view representation object that stores all the parameters that define how the object appear, like color, linewidth, etc... |
|||
On some systems the program is called pyuic4 instead of pyuic. This will simply convert the .ui file into a python script. If we open the mywidget.py file, its contents is very easy to understand: |
|||
{{Code|code= |
{{Code|code= |
||
gad=Gui.activeDocument() # access the active document containing all |
|||
from PySide import QtCore, QtGui |
|||
# view representations of the features in the |
|||
# corresponding App document |
|||
class Ui_Dialog(object): |
|||
def setupUi(self, Dialog): |
|||
Dialog.setObjectName("Dialog") |
|||
Dialog.resize(187, 178) |
|||
self.title = QtGui.QLabel(Dialog) |
|||
self.title.setGeometry(QtCore.QRect(10, 10, 271, 16)) |
|||
self.title.setObjectName("title") |
|||
self.label_width = QtGui.QLabel(Dialog) |
|||
... |
|||
self.retranslateUi(Dialog) |
|||
QtCore.QMetaObject.connectSlotsByName(Dialog) |
|||
v=gad.getObject("Cube") # access the view representation to the Mesh feature 'Cube' |
|||
def retranslateUi(self, Dialog): |
|||
v.ShapeColor # prints the color to the console |
|||
Dialog.setWindowTitle(QtGui.QApplication.translate("Dialog", "Dialog", None, QtGui.QApplication.UnicodeUTF8)) |
|||
v.ShapeColor=(1.0,1.0,1.0) # sets the shape color to white |
|||
self.title.setText(QtGui.QApplication.translate("Dialog", "Plane-O-Matic", None, QtGui.QApplication.UnicodeUTF8)) |
|||
... |
|||
}} |
}} |
||
As you see it has a very simple structure: a class named Ui_Dialog is created, that stores the interface elements of our widget. That class has two methods, one for setting up the widget, and one for translating its contents, which is part of the general Qt mechanism for translating interface elements. The setup method simply creates, one by one, the widgets as we defined them in Qt Designer, and sets their options as we decided earlier. Then, the whole interface gets translated, and finally, the slots get connected (we'll talk about that later). |
|||
=== Observing mouse events in the 3D viewer via Python === |
|||
We can now create a new widget and use this class to create its interface. We can already see our widget in action, by putting our mywidget.py file in a place where FreeCAD will find it (in the FreeCAD bin directory, or in any of the Mod subdirectories), and, in the FreeCAD python interpreter, issue: |
|||
The Inventor framework allows to add one or more callback nodes to the scenegraph of the viewer. By default in FreeCAD one callback node is installed per viewer which allows to add global or static C++ functions. In the appropriate Python binding some methods are provided to make use of this technique from within Python code. |
|||
{{Code|code= |
{{Code|code= |
||
App.newDocument() |
|||
from PySide import QtGui |
|||
v=Gui.activeDocument().activeView() |
|||
import mywidget |
|||
d = QtGui.QWidget() |
|||
#This class logs any mouse button events. As the registered callback function fires twice for 'down' and |
|||
d.ui = mywidget.Ui_Dialog() |
|||
#'up' events we need a boolean flag to handle this. |
|||
d.ui.setupUi(d) |
|||
class ViewObserver: |
|||
d.show() |
|||
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) |
|||
}} |
}} |
||
Now, pick somewhere on the area in the 3D viewer and observe the messages in the output window. To finish the observation just call |
|||
And our dialog will appear! Note that our Python interpreter is still working, we have a non-modal dialog. So, to close it, we can (apart from clicking its close icon, of course) issue: |
|||
{{Code|code= |
{{Code|code= |
||
v.removeEventCallback("SoMouseButtonEvent",c) |
|||
d.hide() |
|||
}} |
}} |
||
The following event types are supported |
|||
* SoEvent -- all kind of events |
|||
* SoButtonEvent -- all mouse button and key events |
|||
* SoLocation2Event -- 2D movement events (normally mouse movements) |
|||
* SoMotion3Event -- 3D movement events (normally spaceball) |
|||
* SoKeyboardEvent -- key down and up events |
|||
* SoMouseButtonEvent -- mouse button down and up events |
|||
* SoSpaceballButtonEvent -- spaceball button down and up events |
|||
The Python function that can be registered with addEventCallback() expects a dictionary. Depending on the watched event the dictionary can contain different keys. |
|||
== Making our dialog do something == |
|||
Now that we can show and hide our dialog, we just need to add one last part: To make it do something! If you play a bit with Qt designer, you'll quickly discover a whole section called "signals and slots". Basically, it works like this: elements on your widgets (in Qt terminology, those elements are themselves widgets) can send signals. Those signals differ according to the widget type. For example, a button can send a signal when it is pressed and when it is released. Those signals can be connected to slots, which can be special functionality of other widgets (for example a dialog has a "close" slot to which you can connect the signal from a close button), or can be custom functions. The [http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/static/Docs/PyQt4/html/classes.html PyQt Reference Documentation] lists all the qt widgets, what they can do, what signals they can send, etc... |
|||
For all events it has the keys: |
|||
* Type -- the name of the event type i.e. SoMouseEvent, SoLocation2Event, ... |
|||
* Time -- the current time as string |
|||
* Position -- a tuple of two integers, mouse position |
|||
* ShiftDown -- a boolean, true if Shift was pressed otherwise false |
|||
* CtrlDown -- a boolean, true if Ctrl was pressed otherwise false |
|||
* AltDown -- a boolean, true if Alt was pressed otherwise false |
|||
For all button events, i.e. keyboard, mouse or spaceball events |
|||
* State -- A string 'UP' if the button was up, 'DOWN' if it was down or 'UNKNOWN' for all other cases |
|||
For keyboard events: |
|||
* Key -- a character of the pressed key |
|||
For mouse button event |
|||
* Button -- The pressed button, could be BUTTON1, ..., BUTTON5 or ANY |
|||
For spaceball events: |
|||
* Button -- The pressed button, could be BUTTON1, ..., BUTTON7 or ANY |
|||
And finally motion events: |
|||
* Translation -- a tuple of three floats |
|||
* Rotation -- a quaternion for the rotation, i.e. a tuple of four floats |
|||
===Display keys pressed and Events command=== |
|||
What we will do here, is to create a new function that will create a plane based on height and width, and to connect that function to the pressed signal emitted by our "Create!" button. So, let's begin with importing our FreeCAD modules, by putting the following line at the top of the script, where we already import QtCore and QtGui: |
|||
This macro displays in the report view the keys pressed and all events command |
|||
<syntaxhighlight> |
|||
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 |
|||
</syntaxhighlight> |
|||
=== Manipulate the scenegraph in Python === |
|||
It is also possible to get and change the scenegraph in Python, with the 'pivy' module -- a Python binding for Coin. |
|||
{{Code|code= |
{{Code|code= |
||
from pivy.coin import * # load the pivy module |
|||
import FreeCAD, Part |
|||
view = Gui.ActiveDocument.ActiveView # get the active viewer |
|||
root = view.getSceneGraph() # the root is an SoSeparator node |
|||
root.addChild(SoCube()) |
|||
view.fitAll() |
|||
}} |
}} |
||
The Python API of pivy is created by using the tool SWIG. As we use in FreeCAD some self-written nodes you cannot create them directly in Python. |
|||
Then, let's add a new function to our Ui_Dialog class: |
|||
However, it is possible to create a node by its internal name. An instance of the type 'SoFCSelection' can be created with |
|||
{{Code|code= |
{{Code|code= |
||
type = SoType.fromName("SoFCSelection") |
|||
def createPlane(self): |
|||
node = type.createInstance() |
|||
try: |
|||
# first we check if valid numbers have been entered |
|||
w = float(self.width.text()) |
|||
h = float(self.height.text()) |
|||
except ValueError: |
|||
print "Error! Width and Height values must be valid numbers!" |
|||
else: |
|||
# create a face from 4 points |
|||
p1 = FreeCAD.Vector(0,0,0) |
|||
p2 = FreeCAD.Vector(w,0,0) |
|||
p3 = FreeCAD.Vector(w,h,0) |
|||
p4 = FreeCAD.Vector(0,h,0) |
|||
pointslist = [p1,p2,p3,p4,p1] |
|||
mywire = Part.makePolygon(pointslist) |
|||
myface = Part.Face(mywire) |
|||
Part.show(myface) |
|||
self.hide() |
|||
}} |
}} |
||
Then, we need to inform Qt to connect the button to the function, by placing the following line just before QtCore.QMetaObject.connectSlotsByName(Dialog): |
|||
=== Adding and removing objects to/from the scenegraph === |
|||
Adding new nodes to the scenegraph can be done this way. Take care of always adding a SoSeparator to contain the geometry, coordinates and material info of a same object. The following example adds a red line from (0,0,0) to (10,0,0): |
|||
{{Code|code= |
{{Code|code= |
||
from pivy import coin |
|||
QtCore.QObject.connect(self.create,QtCore.SIGNAL("pressed()"),self.createPlane) |
|||
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) |
|||
}} |
}} |
||
To remove it, simply issue: |
|||
This, as you see, connects the pressed() signal of our create object (the "Create!" button), to a slot named createPlane, which we just defined. That's it! Now, as a final touch, we can add a little function to create the dialog, it will be easier to call. Outside the Ui_Dialog class, let's add this code: |
|||
{{Code|code= |
{{Code|code= |
||
sg.removeChild(no) |
|||
class plane(): |
|||
def __init__(self): |
|||
self.d = QtGui.QWidget() |
|||
self.ui = Ui_Dialog() |
|||
self.ui.setupUi(self.d) |
|||
self.d.show() |
|||
}} |
}} |
||
===Saves the sceneGraph with a rotation in a series of 36 files in the X Y Z axis=== |
|||
(Python reminder: the __init__ method of a class is automatically executed whenever a new object is created!) |
|||
Then, from FreeCAD, we only need to do: |
|||
{{Code|code= |
|||
import mywidget |
|||
myDialog = mywidget.plane() |
|||
}} |
|||
That's all Folks... Now you can try all kinds of things, like for example inserting your widget in the FreeCAD interface (see the [[Code snippets]] page), or making much more advanced custom tools, by using other elements on your widget. |

===Adding custom widgets to the interface=== |
|||
class Ui_MainWindow(object): |
|||
You can create custom widgets with Qt designer, transform them into a python script, and then load them into the FreeCAD interface with PySide. |
|||
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): |
|||
def __init__(self, MainWindow): |
|||
{{Code|code= |
|||
self.window = MainWindow |
|||
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 |
|||
MainWindow.setObjectName(_fromUtf8("MainWindow")) |
|||
myWidget.setWindowTitle(QtGui.QApplication.translate("myWidget", "My Widget", None, QtGui.QApplication.UnicodeUTF8)) |
|||
MainWindow.resize(400, 300) |
|||
self.label.setText(QtGui.QApplication.translate("myWidget", "Welcome to my new widget!", None, QtGui.QApplication.UnicodeUTF8)) |
|||
self.centralWidget = QtGui.QWidget(MainWindow) |
|||
}} |
|||
self.centralWidget.setObjectName(_fromUtf8("centralWidget")) |
|||
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: |
|||
{{Code|code= |
|||
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=== |
|||
self.pushButton = QtGui.QPushButton(self.centralWidget) |
|||
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. |
|||
self.pushButton.setGeometry(QtCore.QRect(30, 170, 93, 28)) |
|||
{{Code|code= |
|||

|||

|||
self.lineEdit.returnPressed.connect(self.on_lineEdit_clicked) #connection lineEdit |
|||

|||

self.pushButton.setLayoutDirection(QtCore.Qt.RightToLeft) # This command reverses the direction of the button |

The command |

'''UserAppData''' gives the user path |
|||
'''AppHomePath''' gives the installation path of FreeCAD |

{{Code|code= |

# path = FreeCAD.ConfigGet("UserAppData") |

This command reverses the horizontal button, right to left. |

===Method 2=== |

Another method to display a window, here by creating a file '''QtForm.py''' which contains the header program (module called with '''import QtForm'''), and a second module that contains the code window all these accessories, and your code (the calling module). |

This page contains examples, pieces, chunks of FreeCAD python code collected from users experiences and discussions on the forums. Read and use it as a start for your own scripts...
A typical InitGui.py file
Every module must contain, besides your main module file, an InitGui.py file, responsible for inserting the module in the main Gui. This is an example of a simple one.
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())
A typical module file
This is an example of a main module file, containing everything your module does. It is the Scripts.py file invoked by the previous example. You can have all your custom commands here.
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())
Import a new filetype
Making an importer for a new filetype in FreeCAD is easy. FreeCAD doesn't consider that you import data in an opened document, but rather that you simply can directly open the new filetype. So what you need to do is to add the new file extension to FreeCAD's list of known extensions, and write the code that will read the file and create the FreeCAD objects you want:
This line must be added to the InitGui.py file to add the new file extension to the list:
# 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")
Then in the Import_Ext.py file:
def open(filename):
doc=App.newDocument()
# here you do all what is needed with filename, read, classify data, create corresponding FreeCAD objects
doc.recompute()
To export your document to some new filetype works the same way, except that you use:
FreeCAD.addExportType("Your new File Type (*.ext)","Export_Ext")
Adding a line
A line simply has 2 points.
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()
Adding a polygon
A polygon is simply a set of connected line segments (a polyline in AutoCAD). It doesn't need to be closed.
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()
Adding and removing an object to a group
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
Note: You can even add other groups to a group...
Adding a Mesh
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
Adding an arc or a circle
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()
Accessing and changing representation of an object
Each object in a FreeCAD document has an associated view representation object that stores all the parameters that define how the object appear, like color, linewidth, etc...
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
Observing mouse events in the 3D viewer via Python
The Inventor framework allows to add one or more callback nodes to the scenegraph of the viewer. By default in FreeCAD one callback node is installed per viewer which allows to add global or static C++ functions. In the appropriate Python binding some methods are provided to make use of this technique from within Python code.
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)
Now, pick somewhere on the area in the 3D viewer and observe the messages in the output window. To finish the observation just call
v.removeEventCallback("SoMouseButtonEvent",c)
The following event types are supported
- SoEvent -- all kind of events
- SoButtonEvent -- all mouse button and key events
- SoLocation2Event -- 2D movement events (normally mouse movements)
- SoMotion3Event -- 3D movement events (normally spaceball)
- SoKeyboardEvent -- key down and up events
- SoMouseButtonEvent -- mouse button down and up events
- SoSpaceballButtonEvent -- spaceball button down and up events
The Python function that can be registered with addEventCallback() expects a dictionary. Depending on the watched event the dictionary can contain different keys.
For all events it has the keys:
- Type -- the name of the event type i.e. SoMouseEvent, SoLocation2Event, ...
- Time -- the current time as string
- Position -- a tuple of two integers, mouse position
- ShiftDown -- a boolean, true if Shift was pressed otherwise false
- CtrlDown -- a boolean, true if Ctrl was pressed otherwise false
- AltDown -- a boolean, true if Alt was pressed otherwise false
For all button events, i.e. keyboard, mouse or spaceball events
- State -- A string 'UP' if the button was up, 'DOWN' if it was down or 'UNKNOWN' for all other cases
For keyboard events:
- Key -- a character of the pressed key
For mouse button event
- Button -- The pressed button, could be BUTTON1, ..., BUTTON5 or ANY
For spaceball events:
- Button -- The pressed button, could be BUTTON1, ..., BUTTON7 or ANY
And finally motion events:
- Translation -- a tuple of three floats
- Rotation -- a quaternion for the rotation, i.e. a tuple of four floats
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
Manipulate the scenegraph in Python
It is also possible to get and change the scenegraph in Python, with the 'pivy' module -- a Python binding for Coin.
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()
The Python API of pivy is created by using the tool SWIG. As we use in FreeCAD some self-written nodes you cannot create them directly in Python. However, it is possible to create a node by its internal name. An instance of the type 'SoFCSelection' can be created with
type = SoType.fromName("SoFCSelection")
node = type.createInstance()
Adding and removing objects to/from the scenegraph
Adding new nodes to the scenegraph can be done this way. Take care of always adding a SoSeparator to contain the geometry, coordinates and material info of a same object. The following example adds a red line from (0,0,0) to (10,0,0):
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)
To remove it, simply issue:
sg.removeChild(no)
Saves the sceneGraph with a rotation in a series of 36 files in the X Y Z axis

matZ=Base.Matrix()
matZ.rotateZ(angle)
stepsZ=Base.Placement(matZ).Rotation
view=Gui.ActiveDocument.ActiveView
cam=view.getCameraNode()
rotCamera=Base.Rotation(*cam.orientation.getValue().getValue())
# this sets the lookat point to the center of circumsphere of the global bounding box
view.fitAll()
# the camera's position, i.e. the user's eye point
position=Base.Vector(*cam.position.getValue().getValue())
distance=cam.focalDistance.getValue()
# view direction
vec=rotCamera.multVec(Base.Vector(0,0,-1))
# this is the point on the screen the camera looks at
# when rotating the camera we should make this point fix
lookat=position+vec*distance
# around x axis
for i in range(steps):
rotCamera=stepsX.multiply(rotCamera)
cam.orientation.setValue(*rotCamera.Q)
vec=rotCamera.multVec(Base.Vector(0,0,-1))
pos=lookat-vec*distance

Adding custom widgets to the interface
You can create custom widgets with Qt designer, transform them into a python script, and then load them into the FreeCAD interface with PySide.
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)
Cartesian coordinates
This code displays the Cartesian coordinates of the selected item.
Change the value of "numberOfPoints" if you want a different number of points (precision)
numberOfPoints = 100 # Decomposition number (or precision you can change)
selectedEdge = FreeCADGui.Selection.getSelectionEx()[0].SubObjects[0].copy() # select one element
points = selectedEdge.discretize(numberOfPoints) # discretize the element
i=0
for p in points: # list and display the coordinates
i+=1
print i, " X", p.x, " Y", p.y, " Z", p.z
Other method display on "Int" and "Float"

Find normal vector on the surface
This example show how to find normal vector on the surface by find the u,v parameters of one point on the surface and use u,v parameters to find normal vector
def normal(self):
ss=FreeCADGui.Selection.getSelectionEx()[0].SubObjects[0].copy()#SubObjects[0] is the edge list
points = ss.discretize(3.0)#points on the surface edge,
#this example just use points on the edge for example.
#However point is not necessary on the edge, it can be anywhere on the surface.
face=FreeCADGui.Selection.getSelectionEx()[0].SubObjects[1]
for pp in points:
pt=FreeCAD.Base.Vector(pp.x,pp.y,pp.z)#a point on the surface edge
uv=face.Surface.parameter(pt)# find the surface u,v parameter of a point on the surface edge
u=uv[0]
v=uv[1]
normal=face.normalAt(u,v)#use u,v to find normal vector
print normal
line=Part.makeLine((pp.x,pp.y,pp.z), (normal.x,normal.y,normal.z))
Part.show(line)
