Hi, We've been using KiCad and Dorkbotpdx extensively for all or our open source projects (wyolum.com). I haven't used Eagle (except to view projects), but I think Eagle CAM job file is equivalent to

I understand your position and wish you well with your new company. Regardless if you choose to disappear or not from the KiCad scene, I would like to use the opportunity and thank you and SoftPLC for

I am finished with the EAGLE_PLUGIN, and I am suspending my involvement with KiCad until my time can be funded. This probably means goodbye, after 5 years and $310,000 donated by my employer, SoftPLC

this is exactly what I do, I find it kinda annoying... there should be better way. i tried just stitching some vias without using trace and that was a bad idea. actually the idea was good but PCBNew

I built 3578-testing because that is what launchpad gave bazaar. I do not want to be responsible as a maintainer due to lack of time. (My website an blog sadly neglected.) I suppose I could put the

Hi Probably because that's almost impossible to match a good PCB routing to the logically organized schematic layout. Best regards Jorge De: kicad-users@...

A couple of reasons that I can think of: 1. A schematic will frequently consist of several sheets - then "position on the schematic" is difficult to define, if not meaningless. 2. Many ICs have

Hello Lawrence. No, its the same in Europe. ;O) I do not know the real reason, but i guess, it has to to with the widgets and canvasses used in programming. It is common, that they have there origin

Hi Jeff, I have V3411 which is now some way out of date methinks... Off topic, Cadence is indeed a nightmare of a learning curve and the licence server is a pain in the a*se. But NI Design Suite ...

Is there a technical reason why pcbnew does not layout footprints with layout that generally matches the position of components in the schematic?

When you first load a netlist and spread out the modules, all desired connections will be shown by thin white (I think) "airlines". DRC only sees copper tracks, and power and ground planes, as

when you load the netlist you will get all the components in a pile in the corner of the board. You have to move the components to the positions you want, then you can start laying out the tracks I

Eagle offers the options for PCB services to distribute design rule and CAM jobs files. I've been chatting with the person who runs the DorbotPDX PCB service http://dorkbotpdx.org/wiki/pcb_order in

I'm slowly working my way in learning how to create a circuit board with kicad. So far I have created the schematic, tested it and created a netlist with eeschema and I've made some modules.and

LOL, well said! (I am not a developer in this effort, but have been on others). I've often wondered this myself. Having seen this lack of attention to standards in other open src tools, I can guess at

To developers of Kicad and others. Comments about Eeschema. --Why are the X,Y coordinates upside down in the Y axis? When I learned Cartesian coordinates the abscissa (X axis) has positive values

Hello. I am new to Kicad and I did not find a proper way to resolve these two things: 1) Place thermal vias under a component to transfer the heat to other plane layers (for example connect a QFN with

Agreed 100%, one schematic = one board, by far the safest way to do things. You can put as many schematics and PCB's as you want into a project, so there is no real issue. The problem is good working
