When the 3D refactor is done and an Export API completed it will be
possible to
integrate this with kicad via an optional plugin - no more fiddling about
on the
command line. There's a lot of work to do yet but it's something to look
forward
to.

Very nice. This is one more good reason to use KiCad.

Hi,
eeschema and libedit don't have enough zoom levels. The finest grid is 1mil,
but at the finest zoom level, there are barely two pixels for each grid point,
making it bloody impossible to *use* these fine grid settings. Fine grid is
particularly useful in libedit when you want to carefully t
I agree with Cirillo, an unique file called AUTHORS (or AUTHORS.txt for Windows
users) is preferable, as it can be referenced in the About dialog with a link,
so you have the best of both world, and only one place to update when there are
any changes.
Also, you can change the list of contributor

I think that there are some tools and actions that should be accessible
fast, with one hotkey, without the clarify selection menu. Probably most
of time while designing take moving footprints and drawing tracks. So
maybe some simple filter would be useful. It could be something like

Actually, Wayne, hold off on any of these patches, I may be able to fix
this in the nightly/release packaging scripts with a symlink.
I will keep in touch!

I am fairly new to the list so I didn't realize it had been widely

I understand your wariness about having lots of filter switches; it doesn't
seem ideal to me either.

Hi folks,
It is possible that I may be able to use symlinks to make this just work

It sounds like this is going to break the existing behavior so I would
rather wait until after the stable release unless we can guarantee that
it will continue to work on existing installs.
Moving forward, it probably makes more sense to install the 3D models
along side the library and module path
Hi,
Iñigo Zuluaga was a Spanish KiCad translator and icon artist, so he is
in both credit list, but there is a typo in AboutDialog_main.cpp, line
403, his correct name is "Iñigo Zuluaga" and not "Iñigo Zuluagaz", note
the last, not required, "z".
Iñigo. (Not Zuluaga).

Hi Wayne,
very good news. Maybe it makes sense to add the GPL font exception to the KiCad license too, although the font license
is now CC0 the newstroke-font will be part of the KiCad-binary (and thus GPL3+). You can find a template here:
https://www.gnu.org/software/freefont/license.htm
Hi Jean-Samuel
Thank your for your work. :)
But I noticed that some packages are called *-pkg, I was wondering
about this and thought it was a strange "meta-naming"... and now I see
your announcement description where you don't use that, so is this a
naming error in the package names in the repo?
This is also how it works in PADS and it is one of those features that I
really miss when using tools without it:

In fact, switching what you can select is such a common task that they have
it on the right-click menu when you click in empty space:

So originally, I mostly forgot that people do source builds on OS X. :)
After thinking about it, I think we need both search paths in kiface_i, the
new default in pgmbase, and the docs changed. All of these are in the

Then we also could make the kicad-library repo put the pa

I forgot to ask, would this change be on top of your current patch or
replace the current patch?

Just a quick update on the licensing front. I just committed a change
that included updating the KiCad source from GPL2+ to GPL3+ per the FSF.
I also updated the newstroke font license from CC-BY to CC0 per the
original author. I am waiting to hear back from the geda devs about
using their GPL e

As long as you can verify that it works with both your package builds
and source builds on OSX and doesn't break any other platforms, I'm OK
with it.

Great!
I'm trying it in the next design, soon enough hopefully.

I think will be perfect to add filtering panel with buttons, like it done
