Why not keeping them on assembly (hidden)? Silk is way too busy and with too small resolution... in fact it usually can't hold the refdes, either :D IPC350 has dedicated layers for refdes and values, IIRC. Whatever choice we make for the 'official' library *can't* satisfy everyone, there are just too many use cases/workflows... For example I keep refdes on assembly, values (hidden) in assembly and a %R on silk for the components which need a refdes on silk (like connectors, fuses, trimmers and similar). The machine has no use for silk refdes :P -- Lorenzo Marcantonio Logos Srl _______________________________________________ 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
