[Kicad-developers] Best approach for arc trace import?

2017-02-15 Thread hauptmech
I'm considering improving the import of arc tracks when importing pcad format. Currently they are imported as drawing arcs and forced onto the correct copper layer; subsequent editing triggers "correct" behaviour which forces the arc onto non copper layers. The hacky way to do it would be to

Hello JP! Might I suggest that the increment value for the rotation of the component is increased a bit, I have yet to find a component that has needed to be rotated to something else than +-90 or 180 degrees. I might suggest increments of 15degree, rotating 180 degrees is a bit much with 1

Hello again. I also noticed you put the limit for scale to 100, this actually breaks a few of my 3d models I have downloaded from 3dcontentcentral. They sometimes need a scaling factor of 400 or 500. Also, I retract my previous comment about scaling factor, 0.02 is fine for these insane numb

We can use modifier keys to change the step. For example, by mouse wheel a item rotates by 15 degrees, but by mouse wheel + Ctrl a item rotates by 1 degree. Just one of the variants. 2017-02-15 21:06 GMT+02:00 jp charras : > Le 15/02/2017 à 17:27, Kristoffer Ödmark a écrit : > > Hello JP! > > > >
