I just finished building wxWidgets 3.0.1 and recompiled KiCad against it and the mirrored printing is working again. My guess is something changed between 3.0.2 and 3.0.1 that breaks the wxDC coordinate calculations. When I get some time, I'll see if I can find the offending code. _______________________________________________ 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
