[Kicad-developers] eeschema ERC displays Error instead of Warning

2022-01-03 Thread Franck Bourdonnec

Hello,

Each line in the ERC windows of eeschema displays with a 'severity 
error' , info or warning, no matter what.


I tried to follow the code and it lost me at line

426 in dialog_erc.cpp :

m_markerTreeModel->SetProvider( m_markerProvider )

I just can't find where is that thing.
Searching for the loop and maybe a bug.


Franck

Re: [Kicad-developers] 6.0.1

2022-01-07 Thread Franck Bourdonnec

Hello,
I have a simple one.

Choosing some symbol is sometimes very difficult because it is long list 
, very long list of the same thing with just pin count varying for example.


In a future version, KiCad may address that by only displaying a single 
line for the symbol, same as a regular expression.


Example:

Pinheader[01,02]_[02..64]_[H,V]_2.00
Pinheader[01,02]_[02..64]_[H,V]_2.54
and expand that on demand.



These are all generated by scripts.

It is easy for each script to insert a field saying simply how it was 
developped and thus how KiCad can factorise all the serie


Just reserve a keyword in the parsers so that any v6 can read without 
complaining.


(property "CompactedFamily" )<= not happy
(property "CompactedFamily" none)
(property "CompactedFamily" [01,02]_[02..64]_[H,V]_2.54mm )

Same for footprints

Just a quick heads up to all library, package, documentation, and 
translation developers, barring any unexpected critical bugs I will be 
tagging stable release version 6.0.1 late on Tuesday, January 11 (EST) 
for official release on January 15th.  If you have anything you want to 
push before 6.0.1, now would be a good time.


Cheers,

Wayne

Re: [Kicad-developers] Issue 6121- extend system strings by the current date

2022-01-11 Thread Franck Bourdonnec

The support is already here for this with subsitution

${REVISION}

${SOME_RESERVED_KEYWORDS} to add

...as

${LAST_UPDATE}
${LAST_UPDATE:format}

${PAGENUMBER}
${PAGES}   ( to do Page 1/8 2/8 3/8 .)

or

${FOOTPRINT_COUNT}
${VIA_COUNT}

Good source to finding new vars : the help of a wordprocessor.

Good evening,

this issue is about a feature to get the date/time in documents. Date 
should be updated.
A few months ago, after discussions with the user who requested this 
feature, I made a proposal (MR 820) consisting in the possibility to add 
date/time in the title block of schematics. It is updated when you save 
schematics/boards and customization is made in settings dialogs. This 
provides a way to compare two versions of printed or PDF documents.


Seth was not sure about this implementation to solve the issue.
So, the use-case I suggest is:
  - the user needs to get date/time on his schematics;
  - the string is updated when saving the schematics.

What do you think about this suggestion ?

Re: [Kicad-developers] Was the initial graphics mode screen removed?

2022-01-12 Thread Franck Bourdonnec

2012 : what a travel in time !

well, my second laptop is a an old e525 acer that is more than enough 
rapid to do 'internet/video/kicad/kicad debuging...' even with 2~3 hours 
for a full build.

Having it unable to run KiCad , very disapointing ;)

The other one is not much younger.

Don't partitipate to "obsolescence programmée" ("programmed trashing ?") ?

There's a LOT of room for improvement just by using more modern GPU 
features (and by modern I mean from 2012). 


2012 : what a travel in time !

Tomasz, thanks for the explanations.

BTW, I only worked on the schematics, this summer (for some private 
assessment of a few schematics features or UI improvements), that's why 
my remark was so inaccurate.


Pierre.

About doc, this one seems good but bazaar, no revision, no datestamp ?

Is it maintained ?
