Preferences Editor/es

Introducción
Para iniciar el Editor de preferencias seleccione la opción del menú. En Mac OS la opción aparece en el menú  (este es el lugar por defecto para las preferencias en Mac).

FreeCAD utiliza un concepto de ambiente de trabajo, donde cada ambiente de trabajo es responsable de tareas y funciones específicas. Un ambiente de trabajo puede tener sus propias preferencias. Estas sólo aparecerán en el editor de Preferencias si el ambiente de trabajo ha sido cargado en la sesión actual de FreeCAD. Ver Ambiente de trabajo más abajo para más información.

Si no hay ningún ambiente de trabajo cargado, aparecen cuatro secciones en el editor de Preferencias: General, Pantalla, Ambientes de trabajo, y Importación-Exportación. Cualquier ambiente de trabajo que haya sido cargado, y tenga sus propias preferencias, aparecerá debajo de estos.

Please note that pressing the button in the lower left corner of the Preferences dialog will reset all FreeCAD preferences to their default values.

Some advanced preferences can only be changed in the Parameter editor. The Fine-tuning page lists some of them.

Ambientes de trabajo
This preferences section has a single tab: Available Workbenches.

Ambiente de trabajo descarga
To preserve resources, FreeCAD does not automatically load all available workbenches. And only if a workbench has been loaded will its preferences, if any, appear in the Preferences editor.

In FreeCAD version 0.19 the tab has a different label: Unloaded Workbenches, and the tab displays a list of installed workbenches that have not yet been loaded. To load one or more workbenches select them in the list and then press the button.

In FreeCAD version 0.20 the Available Workbenches tab displays a list of all installed workbenches. To load a workbench press its button. If you check a workbench's checkbox it will autoload when FreeCAD starts up. Loading more workbenches will make the startup slower, but switching between workbenches that have already been loaded is faster.

If a newly loaded workbench has dedicated preference they will appear in a new section in the Preferences editor. Some workbenches add support for additional import and export formats. If there are any related preferences they will appear on one or more new tabs in the Import-Export section of the Preferences editor.

For a list of workbench related preferences see Workbench related preferences
