| Summary | 0000481: Possible bug when moving multiple selected components | ||||
| Description | If more then one component is selected in the object tree and the placement of one of the components is changed, the other components move as expected but take up the rotation angle of the changed component which over rides their original orientation. I am unsure if this is a real bug or simply operator error; (although this type of operation is useful when assembling parts). | ||||
| Additional Information | To reproduce: With the attached file, Select "3mm Socket 004" and "3mm nut 004" With the selection in place and the two parts highlighted, navigate down the object tree to get to the X placement of the object shown in the object tree Change this from -31.5 to 31.5 The result is that both nut and bolt move, but the nut then gets rotated 90 degrees which matches the bolts rotation (I think). Please see attached screenshot for before and after. Ubuntu 11.10 Linux, FreeCAD compiled from svn: updated and compiled 10th Nov 2011. | ||||

Moving the parts through the draft workbench move icon works as expected, although not so convenient. |

Sorry this issue may just be noise, the more I think about it FreeCAD is probably doing the right thing, just not what intuitively it maybe should do. From the console it is obvious that FreeCAD is applying to all the selected parts the placement I asked it to, (the placement of the part I edited) which is over riding the placement of the second part. I expected that only the parameter I changed (X position) would be applied not the entire placement which is probably an incorrect assumption. FreeCAD.getDocument("RotateTest").getObject("NORDEX_DLS_B3_001").Placement = App.Placement(App.Vector(31.5,99,73.5),App.Rotation(0.5,-0.5,-0.5,0.5)) >>> FreeCAD.getDocument("RotateTest").getObject("NORDEX_DJS_Q1_001").Placement = App.Placement(App.Vector(31.5,99,73.5),App.Rotation(0.5,-0.5,-0.5,0.5)) |

The right way to achieve what you want: 1. Select the object you want to place 2. Go to Edit > Placement 3. Set the check-mark to apply changes incrementally (!!!) 4. Enter the values |

I must have spent 100+ hours working with FreeCAD and have never been in that menu !. I think that says something about my working patterns. It works perfectly as you describe. Thanks for looking into this and apologies for the noise. |
