Hello again!

First of all, sorry for so long without commenting on the forum.

In order to end the installation problems, a repository has been created on github to perform the installation through the Addon Manager. I leave the link here: https://github.com/davidmubernal/Mechatronic

Also mention that the documentation has been moved to the repository of github and in readthedocs

I hope I can get the time needed to correct the reported bugs as well as some improvements.

Thank you very much to all of you who have tried MW.

Where can we find those?

If not yet reported, here is a small bug:

Code: Select all

15:09:06  Init: Loading FreeCAD GUI
15:09:06  Cannot find icon: /Resources/icons/Maker_workbench_icon.svg
15:09:06  Init: Running FreeCADGuiInit.py start script... done
So no icon for it, which means I don't want to put it in my vertical selector toolbar because it replaces the icon with the text, widening the toolbar.

Dear users,
I have installed Mechatronic Workbench with Add-ons Manager by paste "https://github.com/davidmubernal/Mechatronic" link and installing from Add-on manager. After FreeCAd restart "Maker Workbench" is listed.
When I choose "Maker Workbench" from the list I see:
Image

I am using "Linux Mint 20.2". FreeCAD works great but this add-on can't start.
Can I ask what would be the reason?
If anybody have an idea, I will be so thankful.

All great,
Marcin

First of all, thanks for use MechatronicWorkbench.

You can install the workbench with de addon manager without put the link.

Furthermore, if you want to use a link try with the following (we change the proyect repo ;D)

Invite to 2023 FreeCAD (and Free CAE) Users Conference

Post by Varnu01 »

Good Day @davidmubernal

My name is Varnu Govender, I am the assistant to Dr du Plessis at the University of Pretoria, South Africa.

We are organizing the 1st Annual FreeCAD (and Free CAE) Users Conference, which is set to take place in Early 2023.

I have taken interest in your Workbench, and I would love if you could present your work at the conference.

You are welcome to present your workbench in the following manner:
  • Introduction/Overview of your Workbench
  • Run-down on how the workbench operates through the user interface and backend.
  • A tutorial demonstrating the full functionality of the workbench.
  • A showcase of something that has been created/modelled in the workbench.
In addition to this, if you know somebody that might be interested in presenting their work during the conference, please could you refer them to me (@Varnu01.)

I hope to hear from you soon.

Regards
