Clemens, Please report problems on the bug tracker. It is much easier for us to coordinate the work this way. There is a high chance that your report on the mailing list will be lost in a few days due to high traffic on the mailing list. Thank you for understanding. Cheers, Orson On 02/27/2018

[Kicad-developers] Oversight in pcbnew footprint properties dialog

Nowhere in the pcbnew footprint properties dialog does it say the name (and source library) of the footprint whose properties are being displayed! This is a weird oversight. This little bit of info is useful! For example, my DRC check complained about “footprint C7 has malformed courtyard.”

Re: [Kicad-developers] 3D Viewer "Render current view using Raytracing" is ludicrously slow

Hi Jon, I'll test it tomorrow, kicad is downloading painfully slow. Primarily, last time I tested it, it was because of large resolution display and zooming/panning, dragging. I have not noticed slowdown issues on my macbook pro in other programs. [image: Inline image 1] On Tue, Feb 27, 2018 at

Is *everything* slow on your Mac, or just some things? I have a Mac that I try to test on when I can, although I do my primary development on a Linux machine. I have tried to make sure that GerbView is as fast on Mac OS as it is on Linux and in my testing, recent versions are basically there. I

Frankly, everything on MacOS is slow in KiCad from 3D to layout to schematic, panning and zooming is horrendous. It's probably been 2 months since I tried anything on MacOS, and there have been more than a few improvements committed, but I'm not holding my breath. Especially since schematic isn't

[Kicad-developers] [PATCH] GerbView: More accurate selection of arc shapes

This patch implements accurate hit testing for arc shapes. Previously, they were just checked against their bounding box, which creates annoying rates of false positives in some scenarios (with round board outlines, for example) -Jon From 79af644bbfea071528b4d85c4ff48b353019d8b1 Mon Sep 17

Re: [Kicad-developers] GerbView: Move Icon Options - Icons in Menus to Options - User Interface?

If it doesn't take too long then I'm fine with merging it for rc2. My preference is to focus on the hard bugs that need to be fixed for rc2 but as this will likely create a UI string change it needs to be done by rc2 or be pushed to v6. Once rc2 is out, I'm announcing a string freeze.

Hi! I hope you don't mind feeding you with more bug reports... ;-) In GerbView I open two Gerber files from the gerber_test_files: apertures_rotated_and_arcs_in_tracks.gbr and test_polygons_with_arcs.gbr When I choose Miscellaneous -> List DCodes, I run into the following assertion: ASSERT

Re: [Kicad-developers] GerbView: KiCad-rc2: Layer filenames mixed up in right tab view.

I'm exercising GerberView's Load Gerber File more... The filenames in the Layers tab look consistent now. :-) When loading more Gerbers, additional files are inserted at the last selected Layers position, which makes sense to me. But there is more odd behaviour: When a Layer (i.e. No. 9) is

I cannot duplicate this either on win 7 pro 64-bit using a 32 and 64 builds of kicad. I tried using the open gerber dialog from both the menu and the toolbar, entries in the mru list, and mixing them up. Everything worked as expected. On 2/27/2018 9:33 AM, Jon Evans wrote: > This is so strange.

This is so strange. I just installed the nightly build on a Windows machine just to see if this is a Windows specific problem, and I still don't see it. What I did: 1) Start GerbView (in OpenGL mode) 2) Load one file (using File->Open Gerber File...) 3) See that file appears on Layer 1 4) Load
