A interface do FreeCAD é baseada no moderno kit de ferramentas [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qt_(toolkit) Qt] e tem uma organização de última geração. Alguns aspectos da interface podem ser personalizados. Você pode, por exemplo, adicionar barras de ferramentas personalizadas, com ferramentas de várias bancadas de trabalho (workbenches) ou ferramentas definidas em macros, e você pode criar seus próprios atalhos de teclado. Mas os menus e barras de ferramentas padrão que vêm com o FreeCAD e suas bancadas de trabalho não podem ser alterados.

===Keyboard===


It is also possible to search for shortcuts:
[[Image:Std_DlgCustomize_tab_Keyboard.png]]
* In the search field special keys in shortcuts must be entered as strings. For example to search for commands that use {{KEY|Ctrl}} in their shortcut enter {{Value|ctrl}} (4 letters).
{{Caption|The Keyboard tab}}
* Add parenthesis to search for single character shortcuts, for example: {{Value|(c)}}.
* Add a comma and space between the characters of multi-character shortcuts, for example: {{Value|g, b, b}}.

Introdução

A interface do FreeCAD é baseada no moderno kit de ferramentas Qt e tem uma organização de última geração. Alguns aspectos da interface podem ser personalizados. Você pode, por exemplo, adicionar barras de ferramentas personalizadas, com ferramentas de várias bancadas de trabalho (workbenches) ou ferramentas definidas em macros, e você pode criar seus próprios atalhos de teclado. Mas os menus e barras de ferramentas padrão que vêm com o FreeCAD e suas bancadas de trabalho não podem ser alterados.

introduced in version 0.21: The Workbenches tab is no longer available. Its functionality has been moved to the Available Workbenches tab in the Workbenches section of the Preferences Editor.

The Customize dialog box

Utilização

  1. Os comandos disponíveis na caixa de diálogo "Customize" (Personalizar) dependem das bancadas de trabalho que foram carregadas na sessão atual do FreeCAD. Portanto, você deve primeiro carregar todas as bancadas de trabalho cujos comandos deseja ter acesso.
  2. Existem várias maneiras de invocar o comando Std DlgCustomize:
    • Selecionar a opção Tools → Customize... do menu.
    • Clicar com o botão direito na área da barra de ferramentas e escolher Customize... nos menus de contexto.
  3. A caixa de diálogo Personalizar é aberta. Para obter mais informações, consulte Options.
  4. O botão Help não funciona neste momento.
  5. Pressione o botão Close para fechar a caixa de diálogo.

Opções

Na caixa de diálogo "Customize" (Personalizar), as seguintes guias estão disponíveis:

"Keyboard" (Teclado)

A guia "Keyboard" (Teclado)

Nesta guia, atalhos de teclado personalizados podem ser definidos. Os atalhos para comandos de macro podem ser definidos na guia Macros.

Search

You can search for commands by entering at least 3 characters of their menu text or name in the search field. The search is case-insensitive.

It is also possible to search for shortcuts:

  • In the search field special keys in shortcuts must be entered as strings. For example to search for commands that use Ctrl in their shortcut enter ctrl (4 letters).
  • Add parenthesis to search for single character shortcuts, for example: (c).
  • Add a comma and space between the characters of multi-character shortcuts, for example: g, b, b.

Adicionar um atalho personalizado

  1. Selecione uma categoria de comando na lista suspensa "Category" (Categoria).
  2. Selecione um comando do painel "Commands" (Comandos).
  3. A caixa "Current shortcut" (Atalho atual) exibe o atalho atual, se disponível.
  4. Insira um novo atalho na caixa de entrada "Press new shortcut" (Digite um novo atalho). Os atalhos podem ter até 4 entradas. Cada entrada é um único caractere, uma combinação de uma ou mais teclas especiais ou uma combinação de uma ou mais teclas especiais e um caractere. Use Backspace para corrigir erros.
  5. Se o atalho já estiver em uso, uma caixa de diálogo perguntará se você deseja substituí-lo e o comando ao qual o atalho está atribuído aparecerá no painel "Currently assigned to" (Atualmente atribuído a).
  6. Pressione o botão Assign para atribuir o novo atalho.
  7. Pressione o botão Clear para remover o atalho inserido. Isso também removerá o conteúdo da caixa "Current shortcut" (Atalho atual). Observe que os atalhos padrão não são removidos permanentemente. Eles serão restaurados ao reiniciar o FreeCAD.

Remove a shortcut

  1. Select a command category from the Category dropdown list.
  2. Select a command from the Commands panel.
  3. Press the Clear button.

Restore a default shortcut

  1. Selecione uma categoria de comando na lista suspensa "Category" (Categoria).
  2. Selecione um comando do painel "Commands" (Comandos).
  3. Pressione o botão Reset.

Restore all default shortcuts

  1. Pressione o botão Reset All.

Notes

  • Os atalhos só funcionam se seus comandos aparecerem no menu padrão ou no menu de uma bancada que foi carregada na sessão atual do FreeCAD, ou se seus comandos aparecerem em uma barra de ferramentas visível.
  • Na V0.19, há um problema com alguns comandos da bancada de trabalho "Draft" (Rascunho). Seus atalhos padrão não funcionam e/ou atalhos personalizados não podem ser atribuídos a eles.
  • Para reatribuir um atalho padrão, um novo atalho deve ser atribuído ao seu comando original primeiro.

Macros

The Macros tab

On this tab macro commands can be set up. Once set up, they can be added to custom toolbars. Macros installed with the Addon Manager are set up automatically, and added to a Global toolbar (see Toolbars), if you confirm the Add button popup during the installation process.

If you want to use a macro downloaded from a different source you will have to install it manually. See How to install macros for more information. Note that FreeCAD uses a dedicated folder for macros and only macros in that folder can be set up. Use the Std DlgMacroExecute command to find this folder on your system.

Add a macro command

  1. In the Macro dropdown list select a macro.
  2. Enter a Menu text. This will be the name used to identify the macro command and will also appear in the toolbar if there is no icon.
  3. Optionally enter a Tool tip. This text will appear near the location of the mouse when you hover the toolbar icon.
  4. Optionally enter a Status text. This text will appear in the status bar when you hover the toolbar icon.
  5. Optionally enter the wiki page for the macro, if available, in the What's this input box. Enter the page name, not the full URL.
  6. Optionally enter a shortcut in the Accelerator input box. See Keyboard for more information.

Themes

FreeCAD supports complete theming of the interface, via .qss stylesheets. The qss format is very similar to the css format used in web pages, it basically adds methods to reference the different widgets and elements of the Qt interface. You can change the default theme (which simply takes the style defined by your desktop system) by selecting a style sheet in the FreeCAD preferences.

You can also create your own theme if you are not satisfied with the themes that are bundled with FreeCAD, for example by editing an existing style sheet. Your new style must be placed in a specific folder for it to be found by FreeCAD:

  • %APPDATA%/FreeCAD/Gui/Stylesheets (on Windows). The %APPDATA% folder can be retrieved by entering App.getUserAppDataDir() in the Python console.
  • $HOME/.FreeCAD/Gui/Stylesheets (on Linux).
  • $HOME/Library/Application Support/FreeCAD/Gui/Stylesheets (on macOS).

Addons

Addons from the Addon Manager offer yet another way to customize the user interface. Several Preference Packs to change the theme are available.

In the Workbenches category of the Addon Manager some addons by user triplus can be found:
