EAGLE to KiCAD conversion problem


sp7dqr
 

Hi,
I want to convert conn_subd library from EABLE to KiCAD using ULP, and
I have a problem with pads in converted modules.
Pads in converted modules have different colours then all other pads in
KiCAD modules and it is no possible to edit them. I don't know names of
colours, but if normal pads have khaki? colour, then converted pads
have like grey colour. When I switch off "Show Modules Cmp", all pads
(kicad and converted from EAGLE) are not visibled.
New pads are not printing during PCB printing/ploting.
Can anybody help me? It is configuration problem or something other? I
looked to mod file, but I didn't see any differences in comparision
with KiCAD mod files.

Regards,
Marek

Hi,
in refer to my previous mail, I found a problem.

ULP procedure generates pads layer as '0000000', e.g.

At STD N 00000000

Normally (in KiCAD mod files) all modules have pads placed on
00E0FFFF layer, e.g.

At STD N 00E0FFFF

So, if I changed all lines from At STD N 00000000 to At STD N
00E0FFFF all pads are in right colour and they are printing on the
PCB.

Regards,

Marek

Hi,
I made a changes in new mod file, converted from EAGLE library.

If you opened new xxx.mod file, each pad description looks like:

$PAD
Sh "3" R 700 2000 0 0 0
Dr 0 0 0
At STD N 00000000
Ne 0 ""
Po 0 1000
$EndPAD

I changed a line At STD N 00000000 to
At STD N 00E0FFFF.

00E0FFFF I took from test module pads I can created.

I found a line in ULP file , where At ... is generated, but I don't
know, what to change.
Thanks
Marek

This is a known problem with the eagle ULP script. Hopefully one day, someone
will fix it. :)
