Hi Dear KiCAD Group,
We want to use KiCAD for our products, but we found one limitation which
block us.
The max copper layer is 32 now. but our products need more than 50 layers.
I searched the group, there are not related information, so I start this
conversation.
I have two questions?
1. Why
Hi Stefan,
Thanks for your reply.
Our products are for chip tests.
I already know the limitation for KiCAD and this ticket.
I want to know if I try to add more layer support in KiCAD, which part of
the source code should I pay attention to? bitset for LSET?
SIncerely
Liang

Hi All,
I'm trying to speed up kicad compile time with ccache under windows.
I made a huge step with it, so I want to share my setting to the community.
Before use ccache: the compile time in my env is 20~ minutes,
After use ccache: the compile time reduces to 3~ minutes.
Background:
There are s
s in theory now besides setting USE_CCACHE.

Hi All,
I am writing to inquire about the challenges we are facing when importing
DXF files which contain large numbers into our system.
I have noticed that when the number exceeds a certain threshold(such as
4437 mm), the import process results in an int overflow error.
I did the search below:

Hi Mark,
Yes, you are right, I also found it yesterday.
Actually, we tried to discuss two problems in this email.
1. Suitable dxf file but with big coordination, It's already fixed in the
latest branch.
2. Let Kicad support a larger board size as other software did.
