Launcher will facilitate a potentially faster workflow in FreeCAD by making a dedicated dialog box for users to type/search commands.

Usage

Start typing in Launcher search box to find commands or press Down Key to show all available commands.

Installation

There are several ways one can install Launcher:

  • as an Addon through the FreeCAD Addon Manager
  • as a FreeCAD module which will be available to use after FreeCAD is started. Install path for FreeCAD modules depends on the operating system used (see below)
