Installation

From GitHub

Linux Installation Instructions

To use this workbench clone this git repository under your FreeCAD MyScripts directory. On a Linux Debian based system such as Ubuntu, installation can be done through BASH as follows

$ mkdir ~/.FreeCAD/Mod

$ cd ~/.FreeCAD/Mod

$ git clone https://github.com/microelly2/Animation.git

Once installed, use git to easily update to the latest version:

$ cd ~/.FreeCAD/Mod/FreeCAD_Animation

$ git pull

Windows Installation Instructions

Tested with 0.16.5005 Development Snapshot on a Windows 7 64bit-System (thanks BPLRFE )

  • download the git repository as ZIP
  • assuming FreeCAD is installed in "C:\PortableApps\FreeCAD 0_16", go to "C:\PortableApps\FreeCAD 0_16\Mod" within Windows Explorer
  • create new directory named "Animation"
  • unzip downloaded repository in "C:\PortableApps\FreeCAD 0_16\Mod\Animation"

Within FreeCAD you will now have a new workbench-entry called "Animation".

Mac Installation Instructions

Copy or unzip the drawing dimensioning folder to the directory FreeCAD.app/Contents/Mod

where FreeCAD.app is the folder where FreeCAD is installed.
