Yade

installation Yade

Asked by ozge

Hi everyone,

I use ubuntu 18.04 in my laptop and also want to install Yade.

I wrote this line on the terminal "sudo apt-get install yade" but the F keys did not work (F10, F11, F12 etc.)

Would anyone be able to help me on these problems ?

Thanks,

ozge

Hi,
The problem is - I guess - that you specific terminal emulator is stealing the hotkey for something else, you need to disable that.
I know Unity by default has a terminal which uses the keys for something. If you can't find how to get hotkeys back you can install "konsole", this one is ok.
Alternatively you can just type:
yade.qt.Controller()

Hello Henry,

I installed Yade on ubuntu but not from the source code. I wrote directly "sudo apt-get install yade" on the terminal. Even the F keys do not work, it seems run properly. I use "yade.qt.Controller()" instead of F functions.

Thanks for asking,

ozge

This is to discuss with your specific terminal emulator, it is unrelated to compilation/installation of yade.
