SearchBar

This FreeCAD mod adds a search bar for tools, document objects and preferences.

⚠️ Several issues related to the C++ memory management interacting badly with Python's have caused lots of segfaults during development. ⚠️

⚠️️ Most of these should now be solved, but save your work often and proceed with caution while testing this extension. ⚠️

Extensibility

It can be extended by other mods, by adding a new result provider.

Usage

The search bar appars next to the What's this? tool, in FreeCAD's default File toolbar.

Screenshot of the search bar, with results in its drop-down menu and extra info about the result in a separate pane

Installation

Clone the GIT repository or extract the .zip downloaded from GitHub to the following location:

Uninstallation

  • Remove the folder which was cloned during installation:
    • Linux: ~/.FreeCAD/Mod/SearchBar
    • macos: /Users/user_name/Library/Preferences/FreeCAD/Mod/SearchBar
    • Windows: C:\Users\user_name\AppData\Roaming\FreeCAD\Mod\SearchBar
  • Optional: Remove the cache (~30MB) ~/.FreeCAD/Cache_SearchBarMod or equivalent on other platforms

Development

  • InitGui.py adds an instance of SearchBoxLight to the GUI.
  • SearchBoxLight is a hollowed-out implementation of a search box, it loads everything lazily.
