Part Library browser cannot access hidden directory below "~/.local"
- installed part library using addon manager
- called macro as instructed
- can browse file tree, but not access part library location
- opening part library in addon manager, I find the installation path:
/home/username/.local/share/FreeCAD/Mod/parts_library
but cannot open this location, since directory names starting with a dot are hidden in standard GUI - don't know how the file browser of the GUI is configured, but I can't find a location to enter/show hidden directories
-
workaround: create a non hidden symbolic link, e.g.
_local_share_FreeCAD -> /home/username/.local/share/FreeCAD
