First of all, let me give big THANKS to the developers of geda/gaf and
pcb. This combo of applications is already better suited to do my kind of
job than eagle would :-)
I just submitted a medium sized analog project to the pcb fab (eight
opamps, oscillators, vco, phase detector, filters etc).
Second entry from my book of wishes:
If a symbol contains a footprint attribute, the gschem library dialog
should give a preview. I know, this is only useful with heavy symbols
and willl be frowned at by the proponents of light symbols. But wasn't
geda supposed to
The third wish on my list:
The rubber band move of gschem selections is a good default choice. But
sometimes I want to break connections on move of a symbol or selection. I
wish, there was a modifier to the move short cut that would do the trick.
How about [shift-m] and [shift] while the mouse
Since the initial release of pcblander, there's a new capability. In
addition to flexible generation of footprints from source files, now
pcblander can append the source code into the landpattern, so you never
loose it and always know what the landpattern is. If want to know
exactly what a
Currently, an open end of a net looks very close to a successfully
connected node. (Little red square / Little red circle). This can be
confusing if the net is supposed to end at a place, where two pins meet.
The situation will look almost the same if it misses the joint of the
pins.

If a symbol was changed after down-symbol these changese very likely
are intended to propagate to the current schematic. Currently, this
involves manual interaction by the user:
a) save symbol
b) do up-symbol
c) select the affected symbols
d) do update symbols
Step c) is particular error prone,

Hi all,
FWIW,
About content:
If pcb only had thumbnail images generated for every footprint in the
way done in John Luciani's footprints index.
The thumbnail images for footprints distributed with pcb could be
created during build/install-time before run-time.

Hi Peter and all,
We could use green or yellow for the dot (connected) or red for the
square (not connected).
Kind regards,
Bert Timmerman.
BTW: We can't help the color blind in any other way than making the
difference clear by using different shapes.

In pcb I am getting the error message Empty netlist file! when I try
and load a netlist into a new .pcb file that has been generated by gsch2pcb.
Looking into the file with a text editor, it is definitely not empty and
looks like any other netlist file:
unnamed_net37 CONN8-3 U2-6
unnamed_net36
15 matches
