Re: [Kicad-developers] Component selector (was: I'm working on a nice thing)

And, it's in the branch now, temporarily gated by build option KICAD_FOOTPRINT_SELECTOR. At the moment it is VERY rudimentary, by which I mean it doesn't work - the preview is stuck showing one particular footprint permanently, and it's one you probably don't have in your libraries... Hopefully th

Sure! The specific arrangement of the dialog makes it feel a bit cramped; I find that resizing things a bit shows it works quite well even at a small size. I'm going to have to tweak the exact placement of things in that dialog. On Sat, Feb 11, 2017 at 08:44:24PM -0500, Wayne Stambaugh wrote: > Ve

Re: [Kicad-developers] RFC: Change UX for item selection clarification

I was going to add a context menu entry for "next selection", is that obvious enough to you or do you think there should be extra hints? On Feb 11, 2017 18:14, "Chris Pavlina" wrote: > Very nice. I only think it needs to be a bit more obvious how to do it. > > On Sat, Feb 11, 2017 at 05:49:05PM

Very nice. I only think it needs to be a bit more obvious how to do it. On Sat, Feb 11, 2017 at 05:49:05PM -0500, Jon Evans wrote: > Proof of concept: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JfnXPosOHcY > (when you see the selection changing, I'm hitting the new hotkey I made for > cycling through items)

I wish I had thoughts more verbose than "yes" right now... Yeah, this is how most tools work, and it's quite intuitive. I would be 100% in favor of implementing it this way. On Sat, Feb 11, 2017 at 02:21:08PM -0500, Jon Evans wrote: > Hi all, > > I had been thinking about proposing this already a

Hi all, I had been thinking about proposing this already as a UX enhancement, and then while looking through the starter bugs realized that lp:1154020 [1] is actually quite difficult to solve in a nice way due to the popup menu used for clarification today, so I decided to send it out now. I prop

Re: [Kicad-developers] {PATCH] Icon tweaks

I looks like we have several devs working on icons at the same time. We really need to do a better job of letting other devs know what your working on to prevent conflicts and to allow for collaboration. I would be all for supplying image libraries. We've talked about this in the past but it's s

Re: [Kicad-developers] Schematic I/O plugin.

This segfault seems to be related to only occour with the offical display.lib. Also, I note that I get a bunch of asserts when it loads the libs. Possibly related to the rescue lib, becasue after the asserts I get a kicad error dialog showing 17:26:40: Failed to retrieve file times for '/tmp/kit-

On Windows, the debug build of the GLEW library has an attached "d" in the library name, which the version in the kicad source doesn't know about. Updating to current FindGLEW.cmake solves the issue. Tested on msys2, msvc and Linux. --- CMakeModules/FindGLEW.cmake | 155 -

Re: [Kicad-developers] {PATCH] Icon tweaks

You use way too many icons with identical silhouettes, which makes them very difficult to tell apart at a glance. And lose the pencils, they also don't add anything for quick recognition. On Sat, Feb 11, 2017 at 09:05:55AM +0200, Константин Барановский wrote: > I'm also working on new icons for a

Re: [Kicad-developers] {PATCH] Icon tweaks

Hi Piotr, It's a nice idea, and I certainly think it would be good not to have to compile in the icons, but instead be able to load from files. However, as far as I know, there are some technical problems with that, to do with WX icons only being able to use XPM on all platforms, If nothing else,

Re: [Kicad-developers] {PATCH] Icon tweaks

Did anyone consider adding the ability for “themes”/“resource packs"? So that one could load and switch packs that contain icons, colors and fonts. A good default is very important, but an easy way of testing out modifications to icons and color themes might be a nice thing to have. Cheers, Pi

In my vision, pencil - is the symbol of the edit action. If you look to left sidebar of the kicad window (on attached image from previous message), you can see icons without pencil. That icons of the files (pcb, schematic, libraries, netlist, etc.). On the instrumental panel of the kicad window pla
