Summary0000947: Window object does not update if it fully constrained in Arch module
DescriptionI am using the Window feature to create simple doors. I am using a fully constrained Sketch to define the door. When I change a dimension in the sketch the model does not update. I am using version 0.13 RC from sourceforge on Windows. You will note in the Sketch when you try to edit the Sketches referred to in the Windows to not match up after the update.

this problem is also prevalent on Ubuntu using the ppa daily build (freecad-daily)

Ok I committed a fix in a413a87 which removes external constraints from underlying sketches on window creation. This is unfortunately a limitation that cannot be avoided at the moment. Windows must be children of walls, and therefore their underlying sketches cannot have external references to those walls or to any object that references those walls, to avoid non-DAG situation (where an object is a child and a parent at the same time)

The correct way to solve that problem will be to use external constraints from the assembly module when it'll be ready.

In the meantime I also added a fixWindow() method to the arch module to fix existing files. It can be used like this, to clean a selected window object:

import Arch; Arch.fixWindow(FreeCADGui.Selection.getSelection()[0])

I'm closing this bug report now, don't hesitate to reopen if needed.
