Hi DJ,
Nice artwork :)
I just needed such a "neck-down" feature on one of my last designs (not
send to the boardhouse yet).
I "solved" the situation with a jump wire. Until now :)
BTW: Plug-in to have automagical DRC for minimum tracewidth and minimum
clearance ?
Could become messy in case of

Hello!
I just downloaded and extracted the currently available binary, which is:
0.0.2, and the readme for it suggested that I bring issues here.
I also installed it accordingly for regular users, and opened a

You could build an "element browser" like the netlist window and have
a column to lock/unlock.
Thanks DJ that's fixed it. /,lock/ to // and /lock/ to //

I still think you need an unlock-and-select-those option

Do you expect to be able to select locke
Save your PCB to disk. Bring up the file in a text editor and search
for the word "lock". Remove them if you find any. Now bring the
board up in pcb again and everything will be unlocked. Now you can
unselect everything (there's a menu button for it).
Next, hide the pins/pads and vias layers.
I'm not sure how to describe this. I have a blotch on one of my pads
that is causing a short to a trace. It's on the top layer red layer but
the blotch is light blue, the same light blue as my ground plane. The
ground plane is usually dark blue so I guess the grounds are
inadvertently selected b

Reminder that the Freedog cookout and sprint is this Sunday, the 29th,
from our usual 10am to 5pm, at my house (email if you need
directions). Family are welcome, but the weather isn't looking
promising yet. If it rains it will be a cook-in instead ;-)

Hi,
You didn't described your project too much...
However, if you never worked with SMT and you want only a few parts, it
would be far more easy to solder by soldering iron.
If you want something pretty, you need a so called 'stencil', which is a
stainless steel mask for the soldering paste. A
SparkFun has some good material for learning some basic SMT techniques:

See about 1/2 down, "Surface mount soldering tutorials."
Personally I go one of two routes:
