To this DLL/DSO. But the idea the enhances usability for me is being able to identify full footprints when I am doing the schematic. After putting down 30 parts, I can't even remember what the first part was, and I've lost the datasheet ;) Exaggeration, but not by much. KiCad has a chasm in the design cycle now. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
