[Kicad-developers] P router and board edges

Hi Folks, A user has reported that the P router doesn't respect the Edge.Cuts: https://forum.kicad.info/t/push-and-shove-disregards-board-cutlines-and-keep-out-zones/5597/7 While this is expected due to the way Edge.Cuts is used, would it make sense to test for collision with glyphs on the

Re: [Kicad-developers] Footprint preview panel - faster initialization (Tom?)

Hi Chris, I don't know much about it, but maybe Cirilo can give some ideas based on the 3D cache implementation. The 3D cache is based on a hash of the 3D file so it just need to load a binary pre-processed representation. Maybe you can do some similar rendered image cache. This nature of

Re: [Kicad-developers] Footprint preview panel - faster initialization (Tom?)

Hi Chris, Are you sure this is really needed? GAL is also used in other dialogs, such as footprint browser or pad properties editor, and they do not seem to take a lot of time to load. What is the initialization time we are speaking about? Anyway, if you are determined to optimize it, it is only

Re: [Kicad-developers] Footprint preview panel - faster initialization (Tom?)

Thanks, I'll give that a try tonight. What would _really_ be nice is if GAL could render directly to a pure in-memory bitmap, and if that were threadsafe ^_^ On Thu, Mar 09, 2017 at 02:34:06PM -0500, Jon Evans wrote: > Hi Chris, > > I'm not an expert, but based on what I've learned playing with

Re: [Kicad-developers] Footprint preview panel - faster initialization (Tom?)

Hi Chris, I'm not an expert, but based on what I've learned playing with GAL so far... As it stands right now, you will have to keep around an EDA_DRAW_PANEL_GAL, because as far as I can tell there is too much interdependence between the underlying GAL context, VIEW, and the draw panel. I am not

Re: [Kicad-developers] [PATCH] Show the busy cursor while loading libraries

It's faster for me now - about five seconds to load an empty schematic project with all the official libs, which is bearable, and about the same time to load a large multipage schematic with a smaller library set. Can we declare a verdict on whether the busy cursor is welcome still? I feel like

[Kicad-developers] Footprint preview panel - faster initialization (Tom?)

I'm trying to speed up my new component selector, since the previous one loaded and searched so quickly. I don't want a serious efficiency regression in one of the most used dialogs in eeschema. Since optimizing the column sizing cache and data sorting, the slowest part is now loading

[Kicad-developers] [PATCH] Measurement tool for GAL

Hi, Here's a tool I'm had on my list for a while - a ruler tool. This patch set introduces a new directory, for "preview items" which are EDA_ITEMS that are only used for transient previews, such as drawing aids and selection boxes. These are located in common, so that they can (in theory) be
