Re: [Kicad-developers] kicad version and install location

[Adam Wolf]

What options do we have?  Anything beyond "postpone V5" or "wait for the
next release"?

Could we rebrand the V5 release as a "technical preview" or something that
is suitable for experts (and new users, actually) and make V5.1 V5?

Re: [Kicad-developers] kicad version and install location

Wayne,

Guess going to suggest it should be a priority to version the config
into folders.

This is a user made chart on how to install kicad 5 which honestly is
silly it has to even exist lol

Re: [Kicad-developers] 5.1 tag

[Wayne Stambaugh]

That would prevent us from adding new features such as the new schematic 
file formats and eeschema gal to development branch so I would prefer 
not to limit ourselves in the master branch.

Re: [Kicad-developers] Translation of dialog_bom_help.html

[Wayne Stambaugh]

If the wxHtml widget would support markdown that would work but I don't
think that is the case.  I prefer converting it to markdown and moving
it into the Eeschema user documentation.  It's currently not in the
documentation so that is an issue itself.  It's something we should
definitely take a look at both in terms of the documentation and the
lack of translation.

Re: [Kicad-developers] Stable version 5 tagged.

I'm giving the library, doc, and translators a week to finalize their
work.  I just wanted to get the source tagged today.  As soon as these
repos are tagged, we can get the packages built.  The goal is to make
the release announcement on the 20th so hopefully that will be enough
time for everyone.

Now i am confused. Yesterday (or a bit before) you wrote something about 
the 20th of july.
I will look into tagging the library sometime tomorrow CET. (Too tired 
right now to check if everything is ok.)

Hmm, yeah I tried that, doesnt seemt to be working for me, I was
suspecting It was something hidden like that, but nothing pops up when
i right click. The old approach with a greyed out button for the
different fields wasnt all that bad was it? 

I would really like to be able to add python scripts to the other
fields that dont have a special button. But that is kinda out of scope
:)

For me it always feel better with any kind of list taking up the entire
 height of the window, and having the boxes of options on the side of
them. 

However I really like the unifrom style you managed to get in the UI
with a similar layout of all the dialogs. Not just a big fan of the
particular style, but for me the uniformity is more important, it kinda
makes one familiar with the whole program quicker. 

Let me know If you want me to test anything, 
I dont really have a lot of time on my hands, but some testing and
feedback I am happy to help out with.

Queue up the Handel's "Hallelujah Chorus", the stable version 5 source
has been tagged and the source archive uploaded to Launchpad.  I see a

Re: [Kicad-developers] 5.1 preview

[Wayne Stambaugh]

I just cloned it and build on Debian testing (sans wxPython support) and
it works for me.  I even took it for a quick test drive and for the most
part it looks pretty darn good.  I didn't do any comprehensive testing
to make sure your removal of the global units variable (yeah!!!) didn't
break anything.

Re: [Kicad-developers] 5.1 preview

[Jeff Young]

There’s a handfull of new features, but the main change is a re-write of most 
all of the dialogs (it all started as an internal clean up to get rid of the 
userUnits global variable which causes some issues between apps).

This is copied from Jenkins, so all the (detail) links don’t go anywhere, but 
it gives a good overview of the commits:

Get rid of 5.0 dialog focus hacks. (detail 
)
Kicad-ize the numeric evaluator. (detail 
)
GRID_TRICKS improvements. (detail 
)
Make the pin table editable. (detail 
)
Direct editing of LIB_FIELDs and SCH_FIELDs in dialogs. (detail 
)
If you want to look at old code, use GIT. (detail 
)
Use more self-documenting names for conversion routines. (detail 
)
UI infrastructure enhancements and bug fixes. (detail 
)
Move SanitizePads to CLIENT_SELECTION_FILTER architecture. (detail 
)
Move annotation confirmation dialogs to KIDIALOG. (detail

Add updating of visiblity, position, etc. to fields. (detail

What platform are you on?

Right-click the footprint cell or datasheet cell to get the footprint picker or 
open datasheet.   (These need to be made more discoverable, but I don’t have 
any good ideas how yet.)

The original actually had it inverted, but it felt better with the 
more-often-edited stuff on top.  In any case, it’s easy enough to change.

Jeff.

Re: [Kicad-developers] Translation of dialog_bom_help.html

[Константин Барановский]

As a some start point, I was simplified
eeschema/dialogs/dialog_bom_help.html as much as possible (with several
fixes).

Re: [Kicad-developers] 5.1 preview

[kristoffer ödmark]

Hey! Nice job!

I am not really sure what is the difference everywhere but i will give
my opinion on what i noticed :)


Good:
   - Finally i can read the status text on the bottom thank you!
   - The BOM plugin menu is much nicer
   - Text and graphics view in pcbnew, very nice

Bad:
   - Crashes on trying to edit outlines in pcbnew.
   - Its much harder to change the footprints of components in eeschema
now, also i miss the open datasheet button etc. 
   - I dont really like the design choice of having a list above all  
the buttons, makes for awkward scrolling in the cases where i have many
deifned fields

Thanks for your efforts!

If there is anything outstanding before I tag 5.0.0, now is the time.
I'm going to tag 5.0.0 at 5PM EST unless something critical arises
