Re: [Kicad-developers] [kicad-eeschema] Vertical pins with horizontal texts

2021-02-01 Thread Johannes Sprigode
Thanks Wayne,

all good.

No issue with the current feature freeze status.

Most important is the actual s-expressions file format, which itself is
unlikely to change.

With that in mind I carry on roughly from where I suspended development.

Cheers

Johannes

 Hi Wayne et al,

 the new file format appears to be stable as of now.

 The format contains all required information to implement rotated texts.

 I am considering an implementation restart of my previous efforts.

 Are there any activities already underway?

 Cheers

 Hello there,

 been using Kicad for a while and have not looked back at eagle except
 for project imports.

 However, I found all those vertical texts  in eeschema quite 
 disruptive.
 So I've done something like in attached screen shot over the last 
 couple
 of days working off of master under Linux.

 Would you guys be interest to implement this sort of feature? If so, I
 would follow through with the nitty gritties since the actual
 implications are ‘slightly’ more complex then just that.

 Who would be the best contact to discuss this?

 I’m quite happy to lay out an implementation scenario.

 As it stands this ‘add-in’ will not impact on already existing
 libraries. Going by what is in master there is no such feature except
 some decent groundwork to build upon.

 Cheers

 Johannes

Hi Johannes,

I should have made it clear that the feature freeze implies that the
file formats are frozen as well.  I'm not saying there would never be a
case where we wouldn't change it but the chances are extremely low.

Cheers,

Wayne
