Re: [Kicad-developers] Odd board

If cypress created a Linux release for their tools I would gladly go back to Linux. Last job was STM32 which had decent Linux support (not through ST) and I forgot how much "fun" Windows can be. Again sorry for the distraction. On Tue, Apr 17, 2018, 6:51 PM Jeff Young wrote: >

I tried deleting the path from the module, no change to the results. I in installed Kicad and reinstalled, out works in all cases - I give up, I really should stick to Linux. I apologize for wasting everyone's time I something that we an obvious gift of Windows. Thanks and sorry Mike On Tue,

Re: [Kicad-developers] Odd board

If I open the board with pcbnew as a separate task, the hole is there; if I open the board from the kicad project, the hole is not. Could it be the path back to the schematic is corrupt and therefore opening the board as part of the project doesn't show the hole? On Tue, Apr 17, 2018 at 11:50

Re: [Kicad-developers] Odd board

I edited the pcb file with a text editor, moving the module around to other locations in the file did not fix the problem, moving the pad to other places on the board also did nothing. On Tue, Apr 17, 2018 at 8:07 AM, Michael McCormack wrote: > I have not had any similar

Re: [Kicad-developers] Odd board

I have not had any similar problems on other boards. It used to be visible when the hole was in the upper right corner. I moved it out of the way when I made the big cut in that corner and forgot about it (and I guess it disappeared so you can understand the forgetting.) I had serious trouble

Hi Michael, Are you sure that the file you have sent to the list is the same file you are openning in pcbnew? It could be possible you have 2 copies of the same file in different folders. I can see the hole in stable and nightly versions, like anyone else but you. Sorry I can help with a

Do you see this bug on any other boards? If you edit the board in a text editor to move the mounting hole, is it still invisible? I can’t figure out why we can’t reproduce this…. > On 17 Apr 2018, at 11:40, Michael McCormack wrote: > > I never tried to change setting on the

Hi Michael, Odd. FWIW, if you set the interactive router to “Highlight Collisions” mode it will put you in the driver’s seat. (I think it then acts more like Default, although it’s been so long since I’ve used Default I can’t remember exactly.) Cheers, Jeff. > On 17 Apr 2018, at 11:14,

Re: [Kicad-developers] Odd board

Hi Michael, You appear to be in Legacy graphics mode (probably still called “Default” in 4.0.7). Have you tried OpenGL or Cairo graphics mode? (Note that the modes also change the toolsets, and are a big step up over the default/legacy toolset.) Cheers, Jeff. > On 17 Apr 2018, at 10:45,

Which version of not seeing the problem - 1. The hole is displayed 2. The hole gets dropped for the PCB file just curious Mike On Mon, Apr 16, 2018 at 9:30 PM, Jon Evans wrote: > I tested on Ubuntu and Windows 10 using 5.0rc2 and don't see the problem, > so I guess

I tested on Ubuntu and Windows 10 using 5.0rc2 and don't see the problem, so I guess it has been fixed somewhere along the way. On Mon, Apr 16, 2018 at 8:12 PM, Michael McCormack wrote: > OK, here is the boar file, if you need anything else, please let me know. > > On Mon, Apr

Hi Michael, Is this in 4.0.*? Is the hole the same size as the pad? If so it’s a known bug that is fixed in 5.0. If not then we’d love to get a cut-down version of the board. Cheers, Jeff. > On 16 Apr 2018, at 22:08, Nick Østergaard wrote: > > Is it not possible for

Re: [Kicad-developers] Odd board

Is it not possible for you to obfuscate the board to illustrate the problem? Just delete 99% of the stuff on it to just show a board edge and the hole? 2018-04-16 22:35 GMT+02:00 Michael McCormack : > This might not be quite the right place to post this, but, I've found >

[Kicad-developers] Odd board

This might not be quite the right place to post this, but, I've found something that is a slightly problematic with Kicad and board file. I have a PCB that has a NPH hole located off the board, I can't see it or select it inside PCBNew, however, it gets a hole in the gerbers and I can find it in
