Re: [Kicad-developers] [RFC] Remove counters from general section of pcbnew file

2018-04-25 Thread Wayne Stambaugh
Seppe, I'm comfortable with discussing this change. We are trying to remove unnecessary board file stuff for improved VCS experience. However, this change is a board file format change and we are currently in feature freeze so it will have to wait until after the v5 stable release. Cheers, Way

Jon, Sorry for the late response but this proposal looks fine to me. Of course the devil will be in the details. One thing I want to try after v5 is released is to use launchpad blueprints to track road map items. Blueprints can be linked to a release version so they can be tracked and marked as

2018-04-25 Thread Jeff Young
Cool; yet another reason to update all other unit fields when one is edited. On the last tube design I did I only modelled the heater resistance so it would put a load on my heater power supply. But that was in LTSpice; I’ve yet to try out the Kicad integration. Cheers, Jeff. > On 25 Apr 201

I have also noticed this. For some strange reason, Janitor does not always mark bugs as fixed, even though the logs show that it had processed all commits. I added some extra debug information, hopefully it will help me find the problem. IIRC it used to work flawlessly for a long time and I have no

Re: [Kicad-developers] SPICE and multi-unit parts

Hi Jeff, Spice netlist exporter outputs a single line for each part (including multi-unit ones), meaning you have 1:1 part to model relation. I have not checked, but I suppose that in case of divergent field values for each unit, the first unit has the priority. Speaking of tubes, I have never se

2018-04-25 Thread Jeff Young
Hi Orson, How does the SPICE integration work with multi-unit parts? If I have a valve with two triode units and a heater unit, do I have a single SPICE model, or are the heaters modelled separately from the triodes (or perhaps even not at all)? Thanks, Jeff. __

I had the Janitor fail on a particular bug fix and did a search and found 2 more I had recently fixed that it hadn’t set to “fix committed”. Anyway, just a heads-up in case anyone else has recent fixes that didn’t get closed…. Cheers, Jeff. ___ Mail

You are right, apparently my morning coffee had not yet kicked in when I was reading your message. Indeed, it does not work and deserves a bug report. Cheers, Orson On 04/25/2018 11:02 AM, Jeff Young wrote: > @Orson & @Nick, > > Do you see the clearances /while/ routing? The “always” setting do
