Summary	0003569: App::PropertyStringList not python3 ready
Description	Feature python objects containing a property of type App::PropertyStringList do not work in Python3. When attempting to modify this property you get this error in the report view: Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 1, in <module> <class 'NameError'>: name 'unicode' is not defined Stack Trace: Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 1, in <module> See this post on the forum: https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=7598&p=252150#p251960 and https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=30462
Steps To Reproduce	You need to be running a python3 build. Run this macro (see attached TestClass.py file) to create a simple feature python object named TestObject: import FreeCAD from PySide import QtGui,QtCore class TestClass: def __init__(self, obj): obj.Proxy = self def onChanged(self, fp, prop): '''Do something when a property has changed''' FreeCAD.Console.PrintMessage("Change property: " + str(prop) + "\n") def execute(self, fp): '''Do something when doing a recomputation, this method is mandatory''' pass test=FreeCAD.ActiveDocument.addObject("App::FeaturePython","TestObject") TestClass(test) test.addProperty("App::PropertyStringList","propertyStringList") Select the "propertyStringList" property in the data tab of the property view after selecting the TestObject object in the tree view. Click the 3 dots ... and enter some lines of text and press OK. You will get the error message and the property will not get updated.

DeepSOIC 2018-09-03 17:38 developer ~0011695	New steps to reproduce: 1. paste to console: import FreeCAD from PySide import QtGui,QtCore class TestClass: def __init__(self, obj): obj.Proxy = self def onChanged(self, fp, prop): '''Do something when a property has changed''' FreeCAD.Console.PrintMessage("Change property: " + str(prop) + "\n") def execute(self, fp): '''Do something when doing a recomputation, this method is mandatory''' pass test=FreeCAD.ActiveDocument.addObject("App::FeaturePython","TestObject") TestClass(test) test.addProperty("App::PropertyStringList","propertyStringList") 2. select new object, modify propertyStringList property. type 4 lines: `a b c d` 3. Clear selection, select the object again. The property value now reads `abcd`
