[Kicad-developers] [PATCH] OpenGL: use source alpha only for direct (no AA) rendering

Fixes background color being wrong in OpenGL canvas when AA is disabled From a741215326bd1ff4ca5b1fca830970ad72c3028c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jon Evans Date: Thu, 4 Jan 2018 23:46:50 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] OpenGL: use source alpha only for direct (no AA) rendering

Re: [Kicad-developers] Tool-assisted selection disambiguation

Ehh… that probably need a bit of background. When you try to drag a corner of a track, Kicad always annoys you with a selection disambiguation menu (because there are two segments connected at the corner). Same for dragging a via with one or two tracks connected. This change fixes that by

Re: [Kicad-developers] Tool-assisted selection disambiguation

I’ve got a version of this up and running. So far I’ve only written one filter which works for dragging a simple track corner, or a non-fan-out via. But even that is pretty nice. I’ve got a TODO for a footprint filter for ctrl/cmd-E. It could also be used for Exchange Footprints and Show

Re: [Kicad-developers] [PATCH] automatically add extension to sim workbook files

Wayne, d'oh! OK, I have added the check in attached patch. We could avoid a string copy with some extra work, but I feel it's unnecessary for a filename. Incidentally, I see a few memory leaks etc in here that could be fixed with unique_ptr usage. Is kicad now requiring c++11 and is this the

Re: [Kicad-developers] [PATCH] automatically add extension to sim workbook files

Dan, Please make this case insensitive. Otherwise on case sensitive platforms where someone has decided to use .Wbk, .WBK, etc. for the file extension, your code doesn't add .wbk. Thanks, Wayne On 01/04/2018 02:37 PM, Dan Weatherill wrote: > Hi, > at present, the simulator dialog saves

Re: [Kicad-developers] Latest coverity scan

Well since its ignoring it like it should in the Report Viewer it seems harmless to SWIG on. I turned it on because I wanted it to check if there were any kicad side of things for scripting that had any issues that otherwise weren't compiled with scripting off. For now since it went and counted

[Kicad-developers] [PATCH] automatically add extension to sim workbook files

Hi, at present, the simulator dialog saves workbook files without checking extensions, but only opens workbook files that have the .wbk extension. This makes it very easy to save files and not be able to open them (without some minor frustration). The attached patch checks the extension in the

For those of you that are subscribed to the coverity reports. If you see the "new defects found email" which lists 311 new defects, the total number is in error. I reconfigured the build server to turn python scripting back on and for some reason coverity proceeded to ignore the settings telling

This behavior was considered a bug not to mention confusing. If a layer is turned off, turning on objects in that layer doesn't make any sense. The new (corrected) behavior is far more logical. On 01/04/2018 10:55 AM, Nick Østergaard wrote: > OK, but the legacy behavior in 4.0.7 was considered a

Hi Andr�, I have just checked the behaviour of pcbnew in my copies of kicad 4.0.7 ubuntu and nightly 20170925 ubuntu. -If F.Fab is set, values and references can be set/unset in the render tab. -If F.Fab is unset, values and references are hidden no matter if they are set or unset. The

Re: [Kicad-developers] Stable 5 branch status

Yes, now it doesn't change anything until you click the remap button. If you close without remapping, no changes will be make to any project files. If you do this, do not add new symbols to the schematic and save or you will be responsible for remapping the entire schematic by hand. I am going

Hi Nick, I try to detail it again and hope I can make clear what I mean: - currently you can in 4.0.7 Legacy canvas   * toggle the Value and Reference option in Visibility:Elements.   When you do that:   * Value/Reference are displayed or hidden according to the status of the Element control.
