One way to do this is through Python. I had developed a few years ago (for
KiCAD 4.0.x) KiPadCheck[1] to run some additional basic checks on a board.
Included were some silk screen checks. I haven’t updated it in a while, but it
might be an option to consider Python to cover some areas prior to
I think 1 and 2 (I assume you mean the OpenGL renderer of the 3D
viewer) are good ways forward for the short term.
The DRC system is in a period of heavy change right now so it's
probably best to wait until the dust settles a bit before adding new
checks to it.
Best,

Hi,
I was thinking of looking into making KiCad better at alerting when
silkscreen markings are over a via (since it won't show up when fab'd), and
was wondering where might be a good place to start.
I also heard from one fab to not silkscreen over annular rings, so was
thinking of adding a config
