Yes, that's what I meant. I should have thought about it better before
I asked. So if I say in the project file 'output-name "new-name"' It
will know to check the new-name.pcb file to see what components are
missing and will give me a knew file with the layout data to load into

If you used a project file with gsch2pcb, you can make a copy of the
gsch2pcb project file with the new name in it. Otherwise, you'll
probably need to create such a file, as the pcb and sch file names
won't match any more.
(note: this isn't a pcb question, it's a gsch2pcb question)

I layed a board out and then decided to make changes. I didn't want to
loose all of my work so in pcb I saved the layout as another name. I
now mistakenly deleted an inductor in the layout and need to
re-gsch2pcb the design. Do I just do gsch2pcb "new-name" to get the
new-name.pcb

Greetings;
Does geda have a .pcb file viewer, such as is output by the ExpressPCB free
software for windows? I've got a small tabletop milling machine, and have
been asked to do a board that is about half the size of a postage stamp.
And, if so, can it convert a .pcb into a couple of .ngc's fo

Hi all,
I am a new user to gEDA, but have used other PCB cad tools for a long time.
I've been working through the great tutorial from DJ at

Seems to be not related to mm grid only, similar behavior with mil.

Indeed, you're right -- this only works with nets (traces), no with
components. My apologies.

Press Shift+F to undo the highlight.
Best regards,

Can you select a component in pcb and highlight all components
connected to it?
Thanks

Greetings to everyone here.
I'm working on a new board and I have a couple differential lines in my
design. Is there anyway in pcb to measure the length of the traces and
see how different they are? I'd like to have them match up as close as
possible instead of just eyeballing it.

I know that a part can be placed from one side to another by selecting

to be moved.. Is
