Where is the FreeCAD config files located in snap version

[ngocminhdao88]

Hi,

i have some trouble with write permission with FreeCAD snap version when working in Path Workbench, namely when adding new tool to the library.

Code: Select all

23:25:15  Traceback (most recent call last):
23:25:15    File "/snap/freecad-realthunder/27/usr/Mod/Path/PathScripts/PathToolBitLibraryGui.py", line 623, in libraryNew
23:25:15      with open(path, 'w') as fp:
23:25:15  PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '.fctl'

I copied the default tool library to my workspace folder and want to point FreeCAD to it. But i don't find the config files for snap version anywhere. For AppImage version, the file should be in ~/.FreeCAD or ~/.config/FreeCAD.

Can someone on Linux help me out please?

My FreeCAD version:

Thank you, i found it. But in user or system config file, i don't see the entry for Path tool library. Hence my issue with wire permission still remain. I will try to post this on RT github page.

You can quickly check this via the CLI

Code: Select all

$ freecad-ppd.cmd --get-config UserAppData

JFYI, try:

Code: Select all

$ freecad-ppd.cmd --dump-config

Edit: for realthunder's snap just switch out 'ppd' for 'realthunder'
