The preferences screen of the FEM Workbench are found in the Preferences Editor, Edit → Preferences → FEM.

There are several tabs in the FEM workbench preferences, starting with the General configuration of the workbench. The rest of the tabs control how FEM interacts with supported external solvers.

The current supported external solvers are:

General

CalculiX

Gmsh

On the Gmsh tab you can specify the following:

Name Description
Search in known binary directories If checked, FreeCAD will look for the binary of Gmsh in known (usual) directories
Gmsh binary path The path to the the binary of Gmsh

Z88
