Re: [Kicad-developers] [PATCH] Implement auto annotation on component/symbol placement.

2020-01-27 Thread Eeli Kaikkonen
Zficani, are you still working on this? It came up in
https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/1973#note_277712551.

You could fork in gitlab and make it a merge request.

[Kicad-developers] Proper way to report bugs on branches

2020-01-27 Thread Brian Piccioni

Hello

I have been using Kicad while working on re-annotation (hopefully 
Alexander's merge request will soon be accepted and I can dust off mine).


I have been using branches of the current master. I have noticed a few 
issues which I think are significant and not related to Alexander's work 
(or mine).


For example, when I hit F8 in eeSchema to update my PCB it resolutely 
demands to update some of my resistor network symbols unless I select 
"Update footprint associations by existing references". This seems to 
happen no matter how many time I let it update those RNs.


Should I used the standard bug reporting system or is there a special 
way to deal with these?


Brian

Can you reproduce these same issues on the master branch? Either the latest
master, or the point on master at which your custom branch splits (i.e. the
most recent rebase point)
Doing so will absolutely rule out that there is anything about your branch
related, and also make it easier to figure out what (master) commit is the
relevant origin point for the bug report.

I am pretty sure, yes.

So I should recompile the master branch and try reproduce the bugs and 
report as normal?


Another example is one of the bugs is related to buses - if one of a 
list { SCL SCK ~CS RD} all items after and including CS have an over bar.

Re: [Kicad-developers] Proper way to report bugs on branches

2020-01-27 Thread Jon Evans
You can also report the bug including the version info from your branch
(especially if your branch is public) -- if the bug is clearly not with
your code, it should be easy for others to reproduce it.

What I do to make things simpler is to keep several working copies of KiCad
around, so I don't have to completely switch branches and rebuild whenever
I change from master to a feature branch, or master to 5.1, etc.
Of course, this takes more storage space, but if you have room for it, I
recommend this approach.

You are right about the overbar bug, you can work around it by writing ~CS~
instead of ~CS for now.
