Re: [Kicad-developers] Bus upgrades merge

2019-03-22 Thread Wayne Stambaugh
I did some testing and the changes appear to have resolved the original issues I found. One thing I did not test was complex hierarchical bus expansion. Has anyone else tested this yet? I hope to get to it over the weekend. It's definitely something that should be tested before we give it our

I don't quite follow - what I'm proposing doesn't require any file format changes, I was planning to just use the existing field functionality. If you want to bake it into the format instead, I'm 100% okay with that, but I don't think it's necessary. I'll look into implementing the UI

Hi Kliment This cannot happen until the new symbol library file format is implemented. There is a freeze (except for the new bus expansion changes) on the current file format. I will add a unit description field for units in the new file format this way you can add a unique description for each

Wayne I think I understand. The problem is that at maximum zoom the grid shows 10 mill, not 1 mill, which makes it very difficult to actually move the cursor to a particular spot. Perhaps it might be useful to flash a warning if somebody tries to set the grid to less than 10 mill in eeSchema, in

Tom, AFAIR, the cursor position was always used in order to keep everything on grid. Since there has never been connection snapping in Eeschema, the grid is the only way to ensure connections. Cheers, Wayne On 3/21/19 7:41 PM, Tomasz Wlostowski wrote: > Hi all, > > In the thread [1] on the

Hey, I'm working with a part that has a very large number of non-interchangeable units, each with many pins. For a part like this, it's very difficult to tell which unit is which from the preview. Parts have a description field that is shown in the list, but units don't. For parts with
