I have created KiPadCheck as a post-layout DRC addition to KiCad. It has some
checks related to pads, vias, drill, silkscreen, paste, and mask that address
some shortcomings in KiCad DRC. I have also researched Eagle's DRC and they
allow a fairly wide range of specifications for layers, vias and
Reminder.

Rather than add a wxComboBox to the WX_UNIT_BINDER object, wouldn't be
be cleaner to change wxTextCtrl* to wxTextEntry* which wxComboBox and
wxTextCtrl (along with several others) are derived from?

That's awesome, jp!
I am able to test the nightly version of Windows, so let me know (perhaps via
the bug here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/kicad/+bug/1712233) when you'd like me
to test. I am currently unable to rebuild KiCad, so I rely on the nightly
builds to test.

Continuing to review, it appears I am wrong. PCB_EDIT_FRAME:sLV does in fact
synchronize the checkboxes, but also calls PCB_DRAW_PANEL_GAL::SLV to do the
background synchronization of the layers.
Thank you jp, and I apologize for not researching sufficiently your answer
before posting.

Thank you jp!
This appears to not actually be true and reveals (I think) an inconsistency in
the KiCad code.
PCB_DRAW_PANEL_GAL::SyncLayersVisibility
is VERY different from
PCB_EDIT_FRAME::syncLayerVisibilities
PCB_DRAW_PANEL_GAL::SLV modifies the visibility of the layers themselves,
taking care

Hi!
Maybe, some of these HDI Design Guides + documents are useful:
http://www.we-online.com/web/de/index.php/download/media/04_leiterplatte/2011_2/relaunch/produkte_5/microvia_hdi/141030_DesignGuide_HDI_1_1.pdf
Page 8 gives quite a good overview of what's possible - at least!

Yes, I'm referring to the schematic wires. Through the G hotkey has the

I don't think it would be lot of logic to add. Because we can use any
existing routing library such as A* search algorithm.

Try 'G' to grab rather than 'M' to move

I'm assuming you're referring to schematic wires? I'm not sure if there is
active work going on in this area, but I briefly looked into adding this

Hi Team,
The wire connections doesn't move or sustain when the parts are moved
around. Is there any work going on to address this. Almost in all
commercial softwares the wires connections adjust as per the movement of
the parts.
Thanks,

Sorry about the delay but I was dealing with a family emergency all last
week. Now that I'm getting caught up I really need to get stable
version 4.0.7 released. Are there any outstanding issue remaining
before I make the release announcement? I'm shooting for Friday or
Saturday.

How do I call PCB_DRAW_PANEL_GAL::SyncLayersVisibility from python? I can't
find where it exists in the python hierarchy.

I believe it's the solution to fixing a bug that prevents LayerViewSet.py from
working well.https://github.com/HiGregSmith/Laye
Hi

Right now I can fabricate boards, I can not design. That is also not a good
solution.
via constraints are tricky bussiness as they are very specific to the
manufacturer.

I second this. Working in a Research Institute I can assure you, that
very often there are circuit boards with "interesting" stackups and via
configurations... These boards are not produced by quick-turn factories
like eurocircuits but companies such as ILFA or Optiprint.

it is hard to move and roll pcb board in 3d-viewer. why not design the control
as same as a game. that is a very intuitive and natural way to control the
object in a game.___
