[Kicad-developers] [PATCH] Undo/redo points for zone fill actions (GAL)

Hi, Thiis is a patch to allow the zone fill/unfill actions to get undo and redo points in GAL. These functions could do with a refactor, perhaps, but this commit doesn't attempt that, in order to keep the change clear. Legacy doesn't have this function either, but once GAL makes the points,

Hi, Commit message: " Since for this tool the only difference for different tolerances is the 4th band, which is present for tolerance <= 2% and not present for 10%/5%, reduce radio choices to those two groups for clarity. Fix a typo (4rd -> 4th) and rename one variable to make it more

Re: [Kicad-developers] [RFC] 3D models repository

Simon, Are you saying we should host the models and provide them on demand? I would agree. This way we can provide models independent of the source (scripts, etc). It also makes it way easier for users. I like the idea of a KiCad-integrated model wizard but I'll leave that for Cirilo to code

Re: [Kicad-developers] [RFC] 3D models repository

i don't see why on-install and if it can be done at install time why not just do it on-demand of the model... if its slow cache but still ondemand, providing models that we gen will likely require a full stack of development as git/github isn't really ideal for stuff like this On 25 February

Re: [Kicad-developers] [RFC] 3D models repository

I personally find the idea of on-demand model creation appealing. I think that if we are to "promote" this as the preferred method, it should be improved through simplification and consolidation. Scripted models have only been added in the last week. Most of the models are legacy (poor quality

I would tend to agree. I know that the disk location doesn't really matter, and it would be a pain to change, but having it as a direct subdirectory of KiCad/share/ seems to make more intuitive sense to me. On 25 Feb 2017 01:12, "Simon Wells" wrote: > why should packages be a

Let's log what it looks like when the next stable comes out, and analyze it then. If we want to push our binaries to Amazon or Google or some other CDN, I can almost certainly have W pay for it, especially if someone else sets it up :). I know Amazon can seed torrents and provide https downloads

Re: [Kicad-developers] [PATCH] Move ZoomFitScreen and ZoomPreset to common

Most of the operations one can do on a BOARD_ITEM potentially affects the board bounding box. It means there might be many places where the notifications should be added. Some time ago, Michael Steinberg has put in place OBSERVABLE class (include/observable.h) that could facilitate the task.

Re: [Kicad-developers] [PATCH] Move ZoomFitScreen and ZoomPreset to common

Every BOARD_ITEM has a parent/child relationship or at least it did if someone did not break it. You can always find the parent BOARD object by walking up the BOARD_ITEM parent list. There is already a BOARD_ITEM::GetBoard() call that should return the parent board. You could use that to notify

Re: [Kicad-developers] [PATCH] Move ZoomFitScreen and ZoomPreset to common

We need a solution that allows GetBoundingBox to be called blindly, without knowing if (or how) an EDA_ITEM subclass needs to have the bounding box updated. Does anyone have ideas about how complicated it would be to give the BOARD class knowledge of whether or not anything inside it has changed?

Yeah, let me clarify--by "wouldn't be a problem" for OS X, I meant "if you did it without saying where it's going and when it's changing", it would break the OS X package, but the change would only take a minute or two, and would be quickly testable. On Fri, Feb 24, 2017 at 6:57 AM, Wayne
