Sweet! How about this: Let footprints contain a file name of an macro image from the top. Then, the photo mode could use the image to render a populated board. ;-) BTW, shadows can be rendered with a little image-magick: convert /tmp/out.png \ \( +clone -background black -shadow 75x20+20+20 \) +swap \ -background white \ -layers merge \ -resize 50% \ $OUTPNG_BOTTOM result: http://bibo.iqo.uni-hannover.de/dokuwiki/lib/exe/detail.php?id=eigenbau%3Aphotodiodenverstaerker_20_mhz&media=eigenbau:pd-ac:v3:pd-ac_layout.png ---<)kaimartin(>--- -- Kai-Martin Knaak Öffentlicher PGP-Schlüssel: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x6C0B9F53 _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
