Adam, AFAIK, there is not an upgrading reference but we should probably create one. Since the biggest change that has the potential to confuse users is the symbol remapping, I will write a short document and add it to the end of the KiCad users manual. Cheers, Wayne On 06/17/2018 12:03 PM,

We probably should add a note to the coverity error and change the status to not a bug so that this doesn't come up again in the future. There are a few coverity errors where the code is written as intended but coverity doesn't know that and flags them as errors. On 06/17/2018 08:33 AM, Maciej

Hi folks! Do we have a good reference for users upgrading from V4 to V5, telling them any important precautions they'll need to take, and maybe even what they can expect to be different? I would love to help to write this for V6 but for V5 I am too swamped with macOS (but still optimistic we can

Sadly I don't think there is a way to set the logo alt text in doxygen (so it would still read "KiCad" when the image is not displayed, for screen readers, when copy-pasted and it when search engines index it). Alternatively, use the square icon rather than the text logo and keep the title as it
