Hi Wayne, it is indeed checked and it appears to be a 2 year old bug. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.wxwidgets.devel/162783 Any idea of how to properly fix this problem? cheers Fabrizio On Tue, Jun 6, 2017 at 7:58 PM, Wayne Stambaugh wrote: > On 6/6/2017 4:17 AM, Fabri

Re: [Kicad-developers] [RFC] Standard field for manufacturer part number in schematic symbols

talking about complains... back on the wild KiCad forum (I did not know existed), people are kind of "destroying" Kaspar's initiative to make KiCad a better tool. Kaspar, I personally support your effort but I do not know how since I do not have any special need in the BOM department. I am happy

[Kicad-developers] pull default PDF viewer

​Apologies for presenting this problem again and again I think this topic came up too many times but (on my linux system) the default PDF viewer is not pulled correctly by kiCad. From the terminal: $ cat /usr/share/applications/defaults.list | grep pdf application/pdf=xreader.desktop;evince.des

Re: [Kicad-developers] Hello & Questions to future Administration of Python Plugins

Hi Simon, footprint library components are not very problematic for me because there are already so many in the standard kicad lib. In that department I feel it would be great to just add aliases so that when some manufacturer decides that a diode SOD123 should be called XYZ I can just look for XYZ

Re: [Kicad-developers] Hello & Questions to future Administration of Python Plugins

Re: [Kicad-developers] [RFC] Application naming

Hi Guys, I actually did propose to change the names of the kicad tools few years ago. I personally think: - all kicad tools should be renamed with 100% priority to users. Hence, for example, the schematic editor should be called "schematic editor". - rename kicad itself would also be a good idea
