Three tests for the loadPixmap() DPI fix:
- pixmapFromSvg(content, size) renders at the exact requested size
- getMaximumDPR() returns >= 1.0
- pixmap() loaded from an SVG file has correct devicePixelRatio and
physical size matching 64 * DPR
loadPixmap() rendered all SVGs at a hardcoded 64x64 pixels regardless of
display DPI. On HiDPI screens, Qt then downscaled these low-resolution
pixmaps to the toolbar icon size, producing chunky/aliased icons.
Multiply the render size by getMaximumDPR() and tag the resulting pixmap
with the correct devicePixelRatio, matching the pattern already used in
pixmapFromSvg(const char* name, QSizeF size). This ensures SVGs are
rasterized at the physical resolution needed for crisp display.
The SDK migration (#250) moved kindred_sdk into mods/sdk/ but the
test file was not updated with the new path, causing
ModuleNotFoundError when importing kindred_sdk.
Route platform API calls through kindred_sdk wrappers:
ZTools:
- Replace hardcoded MOCHA dict with kindred_sdk.get_theme_tokens()
- Add sdk dependency to package.xml
Silo:
- Replace FreeCADGui.registerEditingOverlay() with kindred_sdk.register_overlay()
- Replace FreeCADGui.addOrigin()/removeOrigin() with kindred_sdk wrappers
- Replace hardcoded _MOCHA palette subset with kindred_sdk.get_theme_tokens()
- Add sdk dependency to package.xml
Create module:
- Replace dock panel boilerplate with kindred_sdk.register_dock_panel()
Behavior is identical before and after — this is a refactor only.
Closes#250
Add mods/sdk/ with the kindred_sdk Python package providing a stable
API layer for addon integration with Kindred Create platform features.
Modules:
- context: editing context/overlay registration wrappers
- theme: YAML-driven palette system (Catppuccin Mocha)
- origin: FileOrigin registration helpers
- dock: deferred dock panel registration
- compat: version detection utilities
The SDK loads at priority 0 (before all other addons) via the existing
manifest-driven loader. Theme colors are defined in a single YAML
palette file instead of hardcoded Python dicts, enabling future theme
support and eliminating color duplication across addons.
Closes#249
Add FreeCAD.getAddonRegistry() function for runtime addon introspection.
Changes to addon_loader.py:
- Add contexts field to AddonManifest for tracking context IDs
- Add register_context() method for addons to declare contexts at runtime
- Add contexts() method returning {context_id: [addon_names]} mapping
- Parse <contexts> element from <kindred> in package.xml
- Add getAddonRegistry() function returning the registry singleton
Changes to Init.py:
- Expose getAddonRegistry as FreeCAD.getAddonRegistry after loading
Usage:
registry = FreeCAD.getAddonRegistry()
registry.get('ztools') # AddonManifest for ztools
registry.loaded() # list of loaded addons
registry.is_loaded('silo') # True/False
registry.contexts() # {context_id: [addon_names]}
Closes#253
Add <kindred> elements to ztools (priority=50) and silo (priority=60)
package.xml files declaring min_create_version, load_priority,
pure_python, and context metadata.
Fix addon_loader.py topological sort to use level-by-level processing
with (priority, name) sorting within each level, replacing
static_order() which did not guarantee deterministic ordering.
Add docs/src/development/package-xml-schema.md documenting the full
field reference, schema example, and backward compatibility notes.
Closes#252
Add addon_loader.py implementing a six-stage pipeline: scan mods/ for
package.xml files, parse standard fields and optional <kindred>
extensions via ElementTree, validate version compatibility, resolve
load order via graphlib.TopologicalSorter (with legacy fallback),
exec() Init.py/InitGui.py, and populate a runtime AddonRegistry
exposed as FreeCAD.KindredAddons.
Replace hard-coded addon lists in Init.py and InitGui.py with calls
to addon_loader.load_addons(). All QTimer-based Silo integration code
in InitGui.py is unchanged.
Backward compatible: addons without <kindred> elements load with no
constraints using the existing ztools-then-silo order.
Closes#248
Add editing context system description, built-in context table, and
Python API reference. Add architecture section covering addon
integration and unified origin system. Expand ztools and Silo usage
sections with command breakdowns. Add platform support table. Expand
project structure tree with Kindred-specific files.
- Remove hand-crafted kindred-icons/ in favor of auto-generated themed icons
- Add icons/mappings/ with FCAD.csv (Tango palette) and kindred.csv (Catppuccin Mocha)
- Add icons/retheme.py script to remap upstream FreeCAD SVG colors
- Generate icons/themed/ with 1,595 themed SVGs (45,300 color replacements)
- BitmapFactory loads icons/themed/ as highest priority before default icons
- 157-color mapping covers the full Tango palette, interpolating between
4 luminance anchors per color family
Regenerate: python3 icons/retheme.py
During document restore, PropertyLinkList::Restore sets the Group property
on AssemblyObject, triggering onChanged → updateSolveStatus → solve →
validateNewPlacements. At this point joints reference objects that haven't
been restored yet, causing a null pointer dereference (SIGSEGV).
Add an isRestoring() guard to skip solver invocation during restore,
matching the existing pattern in AssemblyLink::onChanged().
The Create module (src/Mod/Create/) was lost from src/Mod/CMakeLists.txt
during the rebase onto upstream FreeCAD 1.2.0-dev. Without it:
- Mod/Create/ is never installed, so the bootstrap that loads ztools
and silo never runs
- mods/ztools/ and mods/silo/ are never installed
- Startup shows 'Ignoring unknown SiloWorkbench/ZToolsWorkbench'
Also adds kc_format.py to the Create install list (was missing).
Change default edge and vertex color from near-black RGB(25,25,25)
to Catppuccin Mocha Subtext0 RGB(166,173,200) — a neutral light
blue-grey with 4.94:1 contrast against the Mocha background.
Update both the compile-time default in ViewParams.h and the
KindredCreate preference pack. The previous purple (#9344ee) had
only 2.91:1 contrast, causing edges to blend into the background
on cylindrical geometry.
Closes#196
Use resizeDocks() to give Database Activity 80% of the vertical space
in the right dock area, keeping Database Auth compact at 120px.
Closes#190, Closes#191
The previous fix (e10841a6c8) passed {"__file__": ...} as the globals
argument to exec(), which replaced the caller's globals dict entirely.
This stripped FreeCAD, FreeCADGui, Workbench, and other names that
modules expect to be available, causing NameError failures across
Material, Tux, Mesh, ReverseEngineering, OpenSCAD, Inspection, Robot,
AddonManager, MeshPart, and others.
Fix by merging __file__ into the caller's globals with
{**globals(), "__file__": str(init_py)} so both __file__ and all
existing names remain available in the executed code.
Set tooltips on tree widget items so hovering reveals the full name
when text is truncated by column width. Covers all code paths:
- createNewItem() — initial item creation (columns 0, 1, 2)
- slotChangeObject() — Label and Label2 property updates
- slotNewDocument() — document item creation
- slotRelabelDocument() — document rename
Closes#193
Use WCAG relative luminance to choose dark or light text color based
on pill background brightness. Bright backgrounds (Green, Yellow,
Mauve, Teal, Peach) now get dark text (#1e1e2e) instead of the
previous fixed light text (#cdd6f4) that caused poor contrast.
Closes#200
DirMod.run_init() and DirModGui.run_init_gui() use exec(code) to run
addon Init.py and InitGui.py files, but don't pass __file__ in the
globals dict. Addons that reference __file__ (e.g. Silo) crash with
NameError: name '__file__' is not defined.
Pass {"__file__": str(init_py)} as the globals argument so __file__
is available in the executed code, matching the behavior of normal
Python module loading.
