I look now at my board file, I see this already: $SETUP InternalUnit 0.000100 INCH We change it to this: $SETUP InternalUnit mils or this, at time of save: $SETUP InternalUnit mm this gets us by for 2 years. The file save and load functions have to do scaling. This is new code that does not currently exist. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
