All were dated today at 1:18 AM. I drag the files from the install DMG to the Applications folder and let it overwrite existing files. > Let me know how to trigger the "Edit Line Segment Properties" dialog box and > I will test what you did. Edge cuts was kinda weird. I originally tried to draw the line in default mode, but I literally could not see the line until I zoomed in close. Apparently the default is to draw Edge Cuts as 0.001” wide. I switched to GAL mode and it was easier to select the cut line, and I changed the width to 0.01”. But it is very difficult to select a thin line without zooming way in. And then it got weird. I needed to change my units from inches to mm (for ease in connector placements, no other) and the grid and the lines I drew wouldn’t match up. In other words, I changed the units to mm, changed the grid to a nice round number (like 5 mm) and when I edited the Edge Cuts properties, I would set them to a nice round number and they would never get on the grid. And then Kicad would crash and I’d have to start again. -a _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers Post to : kicad-developers@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
