Evan,
Can you put together a bug report that summaries the problem? With all that
is going on now, I think this could slip through the cracks and be
forgotten if we don't document it on the tracker.

Mark,
I agree that the dialog could be improved. And this entire part of KiCad,
in fact. But it's also a relatively minor part of KiCad and there are
likely more exciting areas in active development.
Your question about the template sizes was answered in the previous emails.
The answer is that th
There are UX issues with just changing that dropdown.
Currently it's quite literally page size. Not templates.
Template is the separate entry labeled "Page layout description file".
(Just noticed, it should probably display the default loaded template
which may hint the user to make a change)

I don't really use the page templates myself much. But I think it may
be time to rethink the page template concept to help it be easier for
the user to also select the correct paper size matching the template.
But I think that is better kept in an issue, but I guess keeping the
thoughts here are fi
My original request was misinterpreted or otherwise derailed and I'd like
to refocus things back to my original question.
It was: "Is there a path to get these worksheets added into KiCad so they
appear along with the other options in the 'Size' pulldown menu in the Page
Settings dialog in Eeschem
Summa sumarum, from a packaging point of view it is included as it is
on other platforms.

I downloaded and installed 5.1.5 on my windows box and it looked like
these worksheets were in the template folder. I didn't check the entire
list so maybe I got it wrong.

The templates are packaged like everything else with cmake, so if it is not
included it is a bug in the templates repo.

They appear to be packaged in the update to Fedora, but I don't have a
Windows install handy to test on to verify what I see there:

In 5.1.5_2, on Windows, I don't see these new page layouts. So at least in
Windows this wasn't packaged. I don't know about other OSes.
Perhaps there's a way to make this more obvious so that when new page
layouts are available all packagers are aware? The discussion above reads

Thanks Seth! It would be great to have more templates available for KiCad
users. You can ping me for the review when you post the PR.

Seth,
Nobody was excluded. The official KiCad library can only contain elements
(symbols, footprints, templates, etc.) which are contributed while elements
which aren't contributed aren't in the official library. Simple as that.
And I don't see how KiCad's features are being limited. Maybe I'm mis

I believe the US sizes are provided by the ASME Y14.1-2005 standard. Or at
