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.

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.
