#!/usr/bin/python ##################################### # Copyright (c) openBrain 2019 # Licensed under LGPL v2 # # This FreeCAD macro will split the property editor from the combo view to a new dockable widget (panel) # * The default widget is docked to the right of the window but can be freely moved # * When the new widget is closed, the property editor is set back to its location in the combo view # * When the macro has been run once, the new widget is registered in FC UI and can (shall) be hidden/shown as original panels are # * Mouse middle click on the panel title displays a temporary slider to change font size # # Version history : # *0.63 : add comments in the code # *0.62 : property edit subpanel height is recorded and restored # *0.61 : property editor split is toggles when 'Model' tab label is double clicked in Combo View # *0.6 : improve behavior of macro so it toggles property editor split at each run # *0.52 : stop timer when no more needed # *0.51 : fix issue when separate Property View is enabled # *0.5 : beta release # ##################################### __Name__ = 'SplitPropEditor' __Comment__ = 'Splits the property editor from the combo view to a new dock widget (panel)' __Author__ = 'openBrain' __Version__ = '0.63' __Date__ = '2019-12-27' __License__ = 'LGPL v2' __Web__ = 'https://www.freecadweb.org/wiki/Macro_SplitPropEditor' __Wiki__ = 'https://www.freecadweb.org/wiki/Macro_SplitPropEditor' __Icon__ = '' __Help__ = 'Run macro once to create the new property editor panel' __Status__ = 'Beta' __Requires__ = 'FreeCAD >= 0.17' __Communication__ = 'https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=39345' ### Perform needed imports from PySide import QtCore, QtGui import FreeCAD as App import FreeCADGui as Gui ### Define a custom QDockWidget class class PropEditor(QtGui.QDockWidget): def __init__(self): mw = Gui.getMainWindow() pt = mw.findChild(QtGui.QWidget,'Combo View').findChild(QtGui.QWidget, 'propertyTab') #
