[Kicad-developers] [PATCH v3] Rewrite line merging without static vector and sort

The static vector is a massive code smell, and as we're only interested in the most extreme elements, we can simply use std::min and std::max with custom comparison functions instead. --- eeschema/sch_line.cpp | 33 - 1 file changed, 12 insertions(+), 21

Re: [Kicad-developers] PATCH: OS X copy/close bug fix

Resurrecting this. Can we maybe consider adding another patch to wx into our existing wx+OSX patch stack? It's really damned annoying. And of course wx isn't going to fix it - yet another years-old ignored bug, they're clearly not interested in fixing things like this. I regularly encouter bugs in

[OT] For your resistors and DIL packages you can try my old VRML tools: https://github.com/cbernardo/kicad3Dmodels There is also a DO-35 (glass packaged diode) model. The models generated all conform to actual size specifications and you can use the Python modules to create different

Hi firewalker, This is a know issue with the 3d models in kicad librarys. [1] In order to have good renders you need good models and materials [2]. You can try to convert STEP to VRML with this [3] tool from Maurice. He has a material script that will allow you to choose and assist on selecting

Hi Jakub, Cirilo, I made some (little) improvements of the anti-aliasing. (== slower render) Would you like to try it? My approach was been try to give the best apparent quality result without compromise much the render time. Depending on the feedback of future users and how would like more to

[Kicad-developers] Silkscreen Zones in Footprints

Hi all, I know there's been some complication about how to put copper zones in footprints. This isn't about that - but I would like to be able to draw silkscreen zones in footprints. Silkscreen zones on PCBs directly work fine. I'd like to be able to have a standard library of "icon shapes" I
