Should kicad not impose 2 layer restrictions on blind/buried vias? That way users could at least use them, but will have to manually be careful since DRC doesn't support it.

You can put "Gerb" in the top 1/5th of the icon just fine, and shrink the black and white sheets a little bit to make it fit. On Sat, Jan 6, 2018 at 5:08 PM, Chris Pavlina wrote: > On Sun, Jan 07, 2018 at 01:01:08AM +, Andrey Kuznetsov wrote: > > FYI, the 5th and last ico

FYI, the 5th and last icons from the left do not convey what they are about. Perhaps you could add the word "Gerber" at the top portion of the icon and remove that stupid magnifying glass. The worksheet layout shouldn't have a schematic in gray color in it, why is there a schematic in an empty wo
