Re: [Kicad-developers] What is the purpose of multiple 3D models?

Jeff, From a user point of view, sometimes I add 2 different models to the same footprint: a power transistor and its heatsink, a male pinheader and its female matching connector. Just to check they won't "crash" with other components when connected. And I also keep the .wrl and .step models

there’s a bug where the preview chooses what model to render irrespective of which is selected in the models list. I’ve fixed that bug in 6.0, but it was one of the things that made me think perhaps I didn’t understand how this feature was used.) On 31 Mar 2018, at 11:18, Pedro Martin mailto:pki.

Hi Clemens, This topic has been discussed many times, it is always controversial. A part to buy, i.e. named "LTC6362CMS8" comes already with all the information to be placed in the suitcase - it has exactly one type of footprint (here MSOP-8, JEDEC MO-187-AA). I don't see any reason to assign
