Upfront: regular user who uses recent KiCad versions, not one of the main developers. I think this would be a great item to have. In the past I have had some broken "gadgets" to fix, for which I obviously did not have a schematic. Although it can be done by hand (which is what I do), this feature would greatly reduce the time needed to create a schematic (and get an idea where to start looking for broken parts). /Martijn _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers Post to : kicad-developers@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
