Thanks, Jeff. I'll give it a try when it hits the nightlies. Diego On Fri, Jul 20, 2018 at 6:54 PM Jeff Young wrote: > I’ve merged this suggestion. > > Unfortunately wxGrid conspires against us in trying to present the buttons > when the grid cell is focused, but you do get them once you try

Re: [Kicad-developers] 5.1 UI feedback

I’ve merged this suggestion. Unfortunately wxGrid conspires against us in trying to present the buttons when the grid cell is focused, but you do get them once you try to edit the cell. Cheers, Jeff. > On 20 Jul 2018, at 13:52, Jeff Young wrote: > > No need. I’ve just about got it

No need. I’ve just about got it implemented so a reminder would be surplus to requirements. ;) > On 20 Jul 2018, at 12:32, Wayne Stambaugh wrote: > > I don't remember seeing a bug report for that just Diego's post to the > mailing list. If you want me to, I will create a bug report. > > On

I don't remember seeing a bug report for that just Diego's post to the mailing list. If you want me to, I will create a bug report. On 07/19/2018 03:53 PM, Jeff Young wrote: > I thought there was already a bug for this (reported by Gabriel > perhaps?), but I can’t seem to find it. > >> On 19

Re: [Kicad-developers] 5.1 UI feedback

I like the button idea, the same thing should be done in the schematic field editor, that would basically replace cvpcb for most usecases. On Thu, Jul 19, 2018 at 2:53 PM, Jeff Young wrote: > I thought there was already a bug for this (reported by Gabriel perhaps?), > but I can’t seem to find

Re: [Kicad-developers] 5.1 UI feedback

I second this motion. I didn't find the right click trick so I fell back to cvpcb which is overkill to change the footprint of a single symbol. A tooltip might be useful here as well. On 7/19/2018 3:19 PM, Diego Herranz wrote: > Hi, > > I've started to test these changes and, on the Symbol

Re: [Kicad-developers] 5.1 UI feedback

Hi, I've started to test these changes and, on the Symbol properties dialog, I found it hard to assign a footprint. Before, there used to be a button to open the Footprint selector window. Now you seem to need right click on the footprint field and "select footprint" and that only works if you're

Re: [Kicad-developers] 5.1 UI feedback

Changes in. Could Kevin or Wayne please post the following dialogs one more time: 1) Change Footprints 2) CvPCB (with footprint selected from right column) 3) Footprint Properties 4) Edit Track & Via Properties Thanks, Jeff. > On 18 Jul 2018, at 15:28, Jeff Young wrote: > > Yeah, the “Show”

Re: [Kicad-developers] 5.1 UI feedback

Yeah, the “Show” label of the Output Messages checkboxes is misplaced too. I’ll have another build along shortly…. Cheers, Jeff. > On 18 Jul 2018, at 15:05, Kevin Cozens wrote: > > On 2018-07-18 08:32 AM, Wayne Stambaugh wrote: >> Attached are the updated screen shots. > > One minor point.

Hi Wayne, I merged a bunch of spacing changes (only in master for now). When you have a chance could you screen-shot those same 4 dialogs again? Thanks, Jeff. > On 17 Jul 2018, at 20:48, Wayne Stambaugh wrote: > > Hey Jeff, > > The text size is better but there is now dead space above the

Re: [Kicad-developers] 5.1 UI feedback

Hey Jeff, The text size is better but there is now dead space above the button sizer. It's different but I'm not sure that is better. For CvPcb, our standard message panel might be a good option so that it separates the message information from the button sizer space. I'm not sure what the

Re: [Kicad-developers] 5.1 UI feedback

Hi Wayne, Can you send a screenshot of CvPCB with status text at the bottom? I used a different strategy for setting the text size there which hopefully works better on Windows. Thanks, Jeff. > On 17 Jul 2018, at 19:32, Wayne Stambaugh wrote: > > See attached image for windows. > > There

Re: [Kicad-developers] 5.1 UI feedback

See attached image for windows. There is something very odd going on with some of the dialogs where it looks like a control is constantly being refreshed as though it is in some kind of event loop. Did you make any changes to DIALOG_SHIM that could cause this? It is the most noticeable in the

Re: [Kicad-developers] 5.1 UI feedback

As long as they’re coming in in onesies and twosies email is fine. If they start coming in thicker and faster bug reports are probably better. Can you send me a screenshot of the Edit Spice Model… button? I assume it looks different than on OSX: Cheers, Jeff. > On 17 Jul 2018, at 18:52,

Re: [Kicad-developers] 5.1 UI feedback

There is a proposal document from Jon Evans that would add the ability to have more powerful design rule system. It would really be good to keep working on that and getting something similarly powerful added to KiCad.

Re: [Kicad-developers] 5.1 UI feedback

Right, but that will be beyond the scope of 5.1 as it involves new features. You can see the proposed v6 ERC/DRC roadmap here https://docs.google.com/document/d/1qvCH9aHwCzp5qtKTna4jJXuloNU0b96gAxAHSKPuXpU/edit?usp=sharing Feel free to suggest where you feel it could be improved. Am Mo., 16.

Just a friendly reminder that net classes are not a good approach for some of us. I have never used net classes because they make the assumption that one want's constant trace/space on a net. Most of my boards these days are using components with BGA or LGA pad spacing tighter than I want
