I haven't used gschem.
When I've made changes to PCB I've tried to achived backward AND forward compatibility. However, it's important to note that part of what makes that possible is that much of the "state" of the board is computed dynamically. So you can't, for example, load a board into a new PCB that clears your poly correctly, and then save it and expect the good poly to appear in older versions. Your exported output (eg gerber) is dependent on both your board and the PCB version you export from. If you use an older OR newer PCB you might get different results. Hopefully with a newer version it will be better results... -- Ben Jackson AD7GD <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.ben.com/ _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
