Issues with FreeCAD's Python API in general

  • Document objects are mixed with other attributes in App.ActiveDocument. I would suggest to use doc instead of App.ActiveDocument and e.g. objs.Box instead of App.ActiveDocument.Box. doc.Objects would continue to be the list of children.
  • App.Rotation takes angle(s) in degrees as input but Rotation.Angle is in radians.
  • App.Quantity.getValueAs returns a unit-less quantity instead of a float
  • getGlobalPlacement does not return the global placement.
  • App.GuiUp is not available at the start of FreeCAD.
  • FreeCAD has it's own PySide but not under a different name.
  • There are several way to import FreeCAD (import FreeCAD as App and import freecad as App) but they are not equivalent.
