Preferences Editor/sv

Introduction
FreeCAD inställningssystem finns i Redigera menyn → Alternativ.

FreeCAD's funktionalitet är uppdelat i olika moduler, där varje modul är ansvarig för att en specifik arbetsbänk ska fungera. FreeCAD använder sig också av ett koncept kallat sen laddning, vilket innebär att komponenter endast laddas när de behövs. du kanske har märkt att när du väljer en arbetsbänk i FreeCAD's verktygslåda, så laddas den arbetsbänken och alla dess komponenter just då. Detta inkluderar dess inställningar.

Om inga moduler är laddade, så kommer du att ha två konfigurationssektioner, ansvariga för de allmäna applikationsinställningarna och för visningsinställningar.

Clicking the button in the lower left corner of any preferences display will set all of the FreeCAD preferences to their default values.

for more fine-tuned control of preferences see Parameter editor and Fine-tuning

De allmäna inställningarna
När du startar FreeCAD utan någon arbetsbänk laddad, så kommer du ha ett minimalt inställningsfönster. Alltefter som du laddar fler moduler, så kommer nya avsnitt fram i inställningsfönstret, vilket tillåter dig att konfigurera detaljer för varje arbetsbänk.

Skärmens inställningar
This preferences section has two general tabs, 3D View and Colors, and further tabs depending in the used workbenches.

3D View
This tab is always available, and controls certain characteristics of the 3D view.

In the 3D View tab you can specify the following:



Navigation
This tab is always available, and controls the behavior of the navigation tools.

In the Navigation tab you can specify the following:



Färger
This tab is always available.

In the Colors tab you can specify the following:



Delfärger
This tab is only shown if you are in the Part or PartDesign Workbench or if you have been in these workbenches before.

In the Part colors tab you can specify the following:



Mesh view
This tab is only shown if you are in the Mesh Workbench or if you have been in this workbench before.

In the Mesh view tab you can specify the following:



Workbenches
To conserve resources, FreeCAD does not automatically load all available workbenches. This means that a workbench's preferences will not be available until it is loaded, either by using it, or by using the Workbench preferences tab.

The Workbench preferences tab displays a list of all installed workbenches that have not been loaded yet. To load a workbench and view and modify its preferences, select workbench(es) from the list and click the button. The workbench will be loaded, and if it provides any preferences they will be added to the appropriate section in the preferences editor. Any additional file formats that workbench supports will be added to the Import-Export settings section of the preferences editor. Note that not all workbenches provide additional preferences.

For a list of known workbench preferences documentation see section Workbench preferences



Import-Export settings
The Import-Export settings affect how files are imported and exported to and from FreeCAD. They are described in the page Import Export Preferences.

Workbench preferences
Preferences for the more common workbenches are linked below. Some workbenches have no preferences. Other optional workbenches may not be listed. These links are also listed in Category:Preferences

Scripting
Preferences can be accessed from Python scripts using their corresponding path in the Parameter Editor. For example, the preference appears in  and has type. It can therefore be accessed in Python using the following code:

Finding which parameter is used to store which option from the Preferences Editor can require searching a bit, but the Parameter Editor offers a search facility, which should help.

It is likely a bad idea to modify the preferences of other parts of FreeCAD unless doing so at the user's request. The setter can however be used to set parameters for your own workbench, and the getter can be used to obey existing parameters (e.g. to use colors from the current theme).
