I have several projects that I created under Kicad v5.1.10 under Win 7 Pro x64. I need to go back and change some stuff and while I can add new components and change net labels it will not let me

For what it's worth, I went to SnapEDA and downloaded the LM555 symbol/footprint in V3 and V4 formats (they don't have V5 or V6 yet) using 5.99 and it worked fine.

Thanks for the input Craig. I seem to recall a couple years ago that there was a file format change for the modules and footprints. That was my main concern. I also recall people mentioning scripts

Hey Albert, I am not certain but fairly sure that it will likely take no work from your end. I did a similar, although less drastic, migration when 5 was released and if I recall correctly there was a

Good morning all, At work, we have used an old version (2012-01-19 BZR 3256) for a number of years. We have created many libraries and footprints of our own. These libraries and footprints coincide

TL;DR - I agree with Konrad. I have an elderly, low spec (Medion) Windows 7 system. As far as windows is concerned, it's take it or leave it, and "take" means filling the entire disk with four

Hi, Sorry for not answering your actual question in the affirmative, but: you are aware that support for Windows 7 ended in January LAST year. Right? Unless you work in a completely isolated

Is there such a beast ??? I have partly fixed the run autorouter script but have run into a problem :- ??? Missing required python API: ??? ??? ??? pcbnew.ExportSpecctraDSN ??? ???

You can also edit the footprint in a text editor to change (for example) everything on the comments layer to the Edge Cuts layer. I've produced lots of boards using that technique. Regards, Robert.

Hi, In KiCad 6 (nightly) the Edge Cut layer is available. In KiCad 5 you could use the drawings layer to put down the outline and the Comments layer to explain that this should be aligned with the

Reuse generally is available by using 'templates' which may or not be suitable for what you want to do. I use them to capture complex board outlines and connectors with specific alignment that you

Hello, I'm designing a system that requires a flex to insert into a connector (Molex 5014610491).? The layout of this part of the flex is precisely specified in the documentation and, if I am going

The files are text based, so a simple script would set the pins to whatever state you wanted easily. SED would do, but it should be doable with a standard code editor and some sneaky find and replace.

Hi Dave, I haven't tried this but could you select, left click and drag over the pins, and then tell it to put no connect flags on all the pins?? It may not work but should only take a minute to try

Clever ;-) Dave

If the pins follow the standard grid spacing you can place a single no connect at the top of the symbol and use insert to populate the pins below

Many thanks all - I hadn't thought of "cut and paste", Ill give that a try. I'll also place a feature request. Dave

You could file this as a feature request on KiCad's Gitlab (which you can reach through KiCad's 'Report a bug' feature). Seems like a reasonable thing to ask for.

Usually pins have a certain spacing. I just copy and paste the no connects.
