Voreinstellungseditor
Einführung
Die Einstellungssystem für FreeCAD befindet sich in den Bearbeiten → Einstellungen.... Im Mac OS erscheint die Einstellungen... Menüoption im FreeCAD Menü anstatt im Bearbeitungsmenü (dies ist der vorgegebene Ort für Einstellungen auf dem Mac).
Die FreeCAD Funktionalität sind in verschiedene Module unterteilt, jedes Modul ist für die Arbeit mit einem bestimmten Arbeitsbereich zuständig. FreeCAD verwendet auch das Konzept "late loading", d.h., dass Komponenten nur dann geladen werden, wenn sie benötigt werden. Man erkennt, dass bei der Auswahl eines Arbeitsbereichs in der FreeCAD Werkzeugleiste dieser Arbeitsbereich und all seine Komponenten in diesem Moment geladen werden. Dies schließt auch seine bevorzugten Einstellungen ein.
Ohne ein geladenes Modul hat man Zugriff auf zwei Konfigurationsabschnitte, die für die allgemeinen Anwendungs- und die Anzeigeeinstellungen zuständig sind. Befindet man sich in einem bestimmten Arbeitsbereich, erscheinen die Einstellungen dieses Arbeitsbereichs als neuer Abschnitt und die von diesem Arbeitsbereich unterstützten Dateiformate erscheinen als neue Registerkarte im Abschnitt Import-Export.
Wenn du auf die Schaltfläche Reset in der unteren linken Ecke einer beliebigen Einstellungsanzeige klickst, wird all der FreeCAD Einstellungen auf ihre Standardwerte gesetzt.
Allgemeine Einstellung
Dieser Einstellungsbereich hat 6 Reiter: Allgemein, Dokument, Editor, Ausgabefenster, Makro und Einheiten.
Allgemeines
Auf der Registerkarte "Allgemein" können Sie Folgendes festlegen:
Name | Beschreibung |

Das Splash-Screen-Bild kann geändert werden, indem die Ordner Gui/Images} im Ordner %APPDATA%/FreeCAD} hinzugefügt werden. (wobei %APPDATA% der benutzerspezifische Anwendungsordner von FreeCAD des Betriebssystems ist). Lege dort eine Datei namens splash_image.png} an und starte FreeCAD neu, um den geänderten Startbildschirm zu sehen. |
Enable word wrap | Wörter werden umgebrochen, wenn sie den verfügbaren horizontalen Platz in der Python-Konsole überschreiten. Diese Konsole wird über das Menü Ansicht → Paneele → Python Konsole} angezeigt. |
Dokument
Im Reiter Document kann man folgendes festlegen:
Name | Description |
---|---|
Create new document at start up | Wenn ausgewählt, wird FreeCAD ein neues Dokument beim Start erzeugen. |
Document save compression level | Specification of the compression level for FCStd files. FCStd files are ZIP-compressed files. Therefore you can rename their suffix .FCStd to .zip and open them with a ZIP archive program. |
Using Undo/Redo on documents | If checked, all changes in documents are stored so that they can be undone/redone |
Maximum Undo/Redo steps | Specification how many Undo/Redo steps should be recorded |
Allow aborting recomputation | Allow to aborting the document recomputation by pressing Esc. This may slightly increase the recomputation time. |
Run AutoRecovery at startup | If there is a recovery file available FreeCAD will automatically run a file recovery when it is started. This way files can be restored if a crash occurred. |
Save AutoRecovery information every | Specification how often a recovery file is written. |
Save thumbnail into project file when saving document | If checked, also a thumbnail will be stored when the document is saved. The thumbnail will for example be shown in the list of recent files in the Start workbench. It is possible to select a Size between 128×128 and 512×512 pixels for the thumbnail. Common sizes are the powers of two: 128, 256, 512. |
Add the program logo to the generated thumbnail | If checked, the FreeCAD program logo will be added to the thumbnail. This option only has an effect if Save thumbnail into project file when saving document is used. |
Maximum number of backup files to keep when resaving document | If checked, backup files will be kept when saving the document. You can specify how many backup files will be kept. They contain the previously saved document version. The first backup file will have the file suffix .FCStd1, the second .FCStd2 and so on. |
Use date and FCBak extension | If checked, backup files will get the extension .FCbak and their file names get a date suffix according to the specified date format. For a description of the date format see this site.
With the default settings the backup file will get for example this name TD-Cube.20200315-215654.FCBak (original filename is TD-Cube.FCStd). |
Allow duplicate object labels in one document | If checked, objects can have the same label/name. For example different parts or features can then have the same name in the same document. |
Disable partial loading of external linked objects | Enable partial loading of external linked document. When enabled, only the referenced objects and their dependencies will be loaded when a linked document is auto opened together with the main document. A partially loaded document cannot be edited. Double click the document icon in the tree view to reload it in full. A more detailed explanation of the feature can be found on the Assembly3 documentation page |
Author name | All documents that will be created will get the specified author name. Keep the author field blank for an anonymous author. If the option Set on save is checked, the field Last modified by will be set to the specified author when saving the file. This field can be viewed using the menu File → Project information. |
Company | Alle erzeugten Dokumente werden den angegebenen Firmennamen bekommen. |
Default license | Selection of a default license for new documents. For predefined license the License URL will automatically be set accordingly. Select 'Other' for an own or special license. |

Makro
Diese Optionen steuern bestimmte Aspekte der Ausführung von Makros.
Auf der Registerkarte "Makro" kannst Du folgendes festlegen:
Name | Description |
---|---|
Run macros in local environment | If checked, variables defined by macros are created as local variables, otherwise as global Python variable |
Macro path | Specification of a path to macro files |
Recording GUI commands | If checked, recorded macros will also contain user interface commands |
Record as comment | If checked, recorded macros will also contain user interface commands but as comments. This is useful if you don't want to execute visible actions when running the macro but to see what could be done visibly. |
Show script commands in python console | If checked, the commands executed by the macro scripts are shown in the Python console. This console is shown using the menu View → Panels → Python console. |
Einheiten
In dieser Registerkarte wird konfiguriert, wie Einheiten angezeigt werden.
Auf der Registerkarte "Einheiten" kannst Du folgendes festlegen:
Name | Description |
---|---|
User system | Selection of a unit system that should be used for all parts of FreeCAD |
Number of decimals | The number of decimals that should be shown for numbers and dimensions in FreeCAD |
Minimum fractional inch | Minimum fractional inch that should be displayed. This setting is only available if the unit system Building US (ft-in/sqft/cuft) is used. |
Anzeige Einstellungen
Dieser Einstellungsabschnitt enthält zwei allgemeine Registerkarten, 3D Ansicht und Farben, sowie weitere Registerkarten, die von den verwendeten Arbeitsbereichen abhängen.
3D Ansicht
Diese Registerkarte ist immer verfügbar und steuert bestimmte Eigenschaften der 3D Ansicht.
In the 3D View tab you can specify the following:
Name | Description |
---|---|
Show coordinate system in the corner | If checked, the main coordinate system will always be shown at the lower right in opened files |
Show axis cross by default introduced in version 0.19 | If checked, the axis cross will be shown by default at file opening or creation |
Show counter of frames per second | If checked, the time needed for the last operation and the resulting frame rate will always be shown at the lower left in opened files |
Remember active workbench by tab introduced in version 0.19 | If checked, the application will remember what is the active workbench for each tab independently. This way, the active workbench will be automatically restored when changing tab in the multiple-document interface (MDI) view. |
Use OpenGL Vertex Buffer Object | If checked, Vertex Buffer Objects (VBO) will be used. A VBO is an OpenGL feature that provides methods for uploading vertex data (position, normal vector, color, etc.) to the graphics card. VBOs offer substantial performance gains because the data resides in the graphics memory rather than the system memory and so it can be rendered directly by GPU. For more background info see this webpage. |
Render Cache introduced in version 0.19 | "Render Cache" or "Render Acceleration" is explained in more detail in Link#render-caching. There are 3 options:
|
Anti-Aliasing | Selection if and what kind of multisample anti-aliasing is used |
Transparent objects introduced in version 0.19 | Render type of transparent objects. The types are:
|
Marker size | Selection of the size of vertices (points) in the Sketcher workbench. The clickable area of points can be additionally enlarged by increasing Pick radius (on Colors tab). |
Eye to eye distance for stereo modes | Specification of the eye-to-eye distance used for stereo projections. The specified value is a factor that will be multiplied with the bounding box size of the 3D object that is currently displayed. |
Backlight color | If checked, backlight is enabled with the defined color. Backlight is used for rendering back sides of faces (usually, you don't see them in solids, unless you slice one with a clipping plane, or if the faces aren't oriented correctly). It is only active for objects whose Lighting property (on View tab) is set to "One side". If disabled, back sides of faces of objects in "One side" lighting mode will be black.
The related Intensity setting specifies the intensity of the backlight. |
Camera type | Selection of the camera projection type.
|
Dieser Reiter wird immer angezeigt und steuert das Verhalten des Navigationswerkzeugs.
In the Navigation tab you can specify the following:
Name | Description |
---|---|
Navigation cube | If checked, the navigation cube will always be shown. Related Steps by turn defines how many steps (notches) will be applied when using the Navigation cube rotation arrows. Related Corner defines where the Navigation cube is displayed on the screen when creating/opening a document |
3D Navigation | Selection of a navigation settings set. To see what each set defines, select a set and press the button Mouse.... |
Orbit style | Selection of the rotation orbit style. When viewing a part in the x-y plane an being in the rotation mode of the 3D navigation, the difference is: If Trackball is selected, moving the mouse horizontally will rotate the part around the y-axis, if Turntable is selected the part will be rotated around the z-axis. |
New Document Camera Orientation | Selection of the camera orientation for new documents |
New Document Scale | Affects the initial "zoom level" of camera for new documents. The value you set is the diameter of a sphere that fits in 3D view. Default is 100 mm, convenient for objects like boxes for Arduino. It also sets initial size of origin features (base planes in a new PartDesign Body). |
Enable animation | If checked, rotations can be animated. If for example the 3D Navigation set CAD is used and the mouse is moved while the scroll wheel and the right mouse button is pressed, parts are rotated. If one keeps the mouse moving while releasing e.g. the right mouse button, the rotation will continue as animation. To end the animation left-click with the mouse. |
Zoom at cursor | If checked, zoom operations will be performed at the position of the mouse pointer. Otherwise zoom operations will be performed at the center of the current view. The Zoom step defines how much will be zoomed. A zoom step of '1' means a factor of 7.5 for every zoom step. |
Invert zoom | If checked, the direction of zoom operations will be inverted. |
Disable touchscreen tilt gesture | If checked, the tilting gesture will be disabled for pinch-zooming (two-finger zooming). This only affects the 3D Navigation set Gesture. |
Rotate at cursor | If checked, rotations in 3D will use the current cursor position as center for the rotation. Otherwise always the center of the screen will be used. |
Farben
Dieser Reiter ist immer verfügbar.
In the Colors tab you can specify the following:
Name | Description |
---|---|
Enable preselection highlighting | If checked, preselection is turned on and will be highlighted by the specified color. Preselection means that for example edges in parts will be highlighted while hovering with the mouse over them to indicate that they can be selected. |
Enable selection highlighting | If checked, selection highlighting is turned on and the specified color will be used for it |
Pick radius | Sets the area for picking elements in 3D view. Larger value makes it easier to pick things, but can make some small features impossible to select. |
Simple color | If selected, the background for parts will have the selected color |
Color gradient | If selected, the background for parts will have a vertical color gradient. The first color is the color at the top of the background, the second one the color at the bottom. |
Middle color | Is only enabled if Color gradient is selected. If checked, the color gradient will get the selected color as middle color. |
Object being edited | Selection of the background color for objects in the tree view that are currently edited |
Active container | Selection of the background color for active containers in the tree view. For example if there are several parts in the tree view and one part is toggled as active body, it will get the selected background color in the tree view. |
Teilefarben
Diese Registerkarte wird nur angezeigt, wenn Du Dich in der Arbeitsbereich Part oder PartDesign Arbeitsbereich befindest oder wenn Du Dich schon einmal in diesen Arbeitsbereichen befunden hast.
In the Part colors tab you can specify the following:
Name | Description |
---|---|
Shape color | Color for new shapes. If the option Random is set, a random color is used instead. |
Line color | Line color for new shapes |
Line width | Line thickness for new shapes |
Vertex color | Color for new vertices |
Vertex size | Size for new vertices |
Bounding box color | Color of bounding boxes in the 3D view |
Two-side rendering | If checked, the bottom side of the surface will be rendered the same way than the top side. If not checked, it depends on the option Backlight color; either the backlight color will be used or black. |
Text color | Text color for document annotations. There is currently no dialog to add annotations to documents. Annotations can only be added using the Python console with this command:
Diese Konsole wird angezeigt über das Menü Template:MenuCommand/de |
Netzansicht
Diese Registerkarte wird nur angezeigt, wenn Du Dich in der Mesh Arbeitsbereich befindest oder wenn Du Dich schon einmal in diesem Arbeitsbereich befindest.
In the Mesh view tab you can specify the following:
Name | Description |
---|---|
Default mesh color | Selection of the default color for new meshes |
Default line color | Selection of the default line color for new meshes |
Mesh transparency | Specification of the default mesh transparency for new meshes |
Line transparency | Specification of the default line transparency for new meshes |
Two-side rendering | If checked, the bottom side of the surface will be rendered the same way than the top side. If not checked, it depends on the option Enable backlight color (see section 3D view). Either the backlight color will be used or black. |
Show bounding-box for highlighted or selected meshes | If checked, a yellow bounding box will be displayed for highlighted or selected meshes. |
Define normal per vertex | If checked, Phong shading is used, otherwise flat shading. Shading defines the appearance of surfaces.
With flat shading the surface normals are not defined per vertex that leads to a unreal appearance for curved surfaces while using Phong shading leads to a smoother appearance. |
Crease angle | The crease angle is a threshold angle between two faces. It can only be set if the option Define normal per vertex is used.
