[Kicad-developers] Printer HP laserjet P1102w OS debian 8.2 Kicad BZR 4027 not printing tracks only solder marks.

Hi,Simon, Thank you for your reply. I have downloaded “Kicad-4.0.0.tar.xz” I believe this the latest Kicad. I then extracted it and put it all in folder “kicad-4.0.0” in the home directory. One of the files called “INSTALL.txt” I

I actually thought that the environment variables was always supposed to override, which is apparently not the case at the moment. If this patch means that I can do, for example: rm ~/.config/kicad ; KISYS3DMOD=/tmp pcbnew And then I expect that the KISYS3DMOD is set to /tmp when used in

[Kicad-developers] Bug: ThrowIOError with GetChars() formatting parameter

Hi, Playing with the spectra import/export, I encountered a bug: in that code are constructs such as ThrowIOError( _("some formatting %s"), GetChars( someWxString )); They are ultimately dealt with wxString::PrintfV( fmt, args ); The output, however, is not as expected. A someWxString with

[Kicad-developers] [patch] default kicad_common to environment variables

The default paths were using DEFAULT_INSTALL_PATH which is horrible because it'll never be right for our Windows builds. A nicer alternative is to use the environment variables as the defaults if they are set on that initial start. Not really critical, just a "nicer" default if its available. Who

A good one! But alas, we have them drag and drop a kicad/ directory onto a symlink to /Library/Application\ Support/, and it does a popup asking for admin privileges. (We also have this in the README right there when you install). It's certainly got me puzzled! On Thu, Dec 3, 2015 at 2:16 PM,

[Kicad-developers] Uninitialized KISYSMOD issue on OS X?

Hi folks! A user is having a problem with the latest OS X RC2 release, and I haven't been able to figure it out. Quick background: There is a KiCad package, and a KiCad Extras package. The KiCad Extras package has a modules/ directory in it, and it has all the footprints. It's for offline use.

Re: [Kicad-developers] Uninitialized KISYSMOD issue on OS X?

Maybe it is a 'first time use problem' - maybe no kicad directory in the /Library/Application Support/. It may require a privilege password to add this directory the first time. A thought anyway. Bob G On 12/03/2015 02:08 PM, Adam Wolf wrote: Hi folks! A user is having a problem with the

It’s not in a plist, but in ~/Library/Preferences/kicad/kicad_common. As far as I can remember, if you had something wrong in there before the environment-variable changes Wayne did, it didn’t vanish with the changes… you had to manually change via Preferences => Path Configuration (or,

This fixes a small "issue" that was annoying me. With this patch when you add new layers in pcbnew they will be selected by default for plotting. It does this in two places: First - it sets the default for a new board to plot select all copper layers. This is needed so the first time the plot

Re: [Kicad-developers] Uninitialized KISYSMOD issue on OS X?

I also don’t see any reason for what you described. The SEARCH_STACK stuff should not be used in pcbnew any more, the other one in pgm_base.cpp looks good IMHO. I can’t remember any other place where this could be a problem except there is already some path slipping in from outside of KiCad.

Re: [Kicad-developers] Uninitialized KISYSMOD issue on OS X?
