Trouble Shooting
This program is designed with the assumption that you are working with 2D drawings.
The Draft workbench Shape 2D View tool can be handy in creating 2D outlines of an object.
FreeCAD objects may need to be downgraded to their "sub components" via the Draft Downgrade command.
Error - could not load a Python engine
FreeCAD does not ?always? load all the required Python files for python4delphi to interface properly.
Installing python from python.org (currently version Python 3.6.6). Fixes this issue.
Error - This application failed to start because it could not find or load the Qt platform plugin "windows"
Problem with QT5 looking for ..\platforms\ in the directory of the executable (in this case CodeSharkFC.exe).
You should be able to set environment variables to point to ..\FreeCAD19\bin\platforms but I have not had any luck with this.
Work around is to copy contents of ..\FreeCAD19\bin\platforms to ..\CodeSharkFC\platforms
