Description
The Path Workbench contains, by default, a set of hidden commands. They are hidden by default because they are developmental or experimental for the following reasons:
- is an incomplete feature
- is bug-ridden
- is unstable
- does not produce correct, stable, safe, paths
- is not a standard, regularly used tool in the traditional CAM workflow
- is a mature, ready tool that has not been moved to the standard tool list
- ... other reasons
Enable Experimental Features
To access the hidden experimental commands of the Path Workbench, the user must enable them in the Parameter Editor.
- Open the Parameter Editor via Tools → Edit Parameters...
- Once in the editor the path is BaseApp → Preferences → Mod → Path
- To enable the Path Area and Path Area Workplane commands:
- Right-click in the parameter list area and select New → New Boolean item from the context menu.
- Name the new parameter:
EnableAdvancedOCLFeatures
(case-sensitive). - Set it to:
True
.
- To enable the other experimental commands:
- Again select New → New Boolean item from the context menu.
- Name the new parameter:
EnableExperimentalFeatures
(case-sensitive). - Set it to:
True
.
- Save the settings.
- Restart FreeCAD.
