You can always add code for own personal use. But IF you distribute that code in FreePCB to anyone else, you have to make your code available to anyone who...

All, Sorry to say, but I found a bug in FpcROUTE v1.302. V1.303 fixes the problem and improves .DSN file protection. See the realeas notes for details. Bruce...
I am tring to load a board I made over a year ago but do not seem to have the right files. I have a jpg of the screen layout within FreePcb and I also have an...
When you load the .FPC file into FreePCB, make sure you have all the correctly layers visible in the selection list on the left. The selection details are...
Rick, Thanks for the reply but I checked and all the layers are on and show all is also selected. The components are showing in a group (not laid-out or...
It sounds like this is a version of the file prelayout. Loosing the finished file is one of my biggest nightmares. That is one reason why I prefer not to...
Rick, Its a small footprint with about 15 components and 4 cable terminal holes. As I said I even have a jpg of the FreePcb final layout... just no actual...
Sympathies, Chris, A straw to grasp before sinking:- is there a file '*.fpc.bak' with a later date? If so you may be lucky - try opening that AFTER you save a...
I am new to the Free PCB world and really enjoy the power of the software. I am looking for a free schematic drawing software that suports Free PCB net lists....
I have several devices in my design that have multiple pins internally connected. I'd like the freedom to be able to select either or both pins to connect to...

Shawn, Don't be too quick to dismiss TinyCAD. The original developer quit upgrading it in (I think) '06 but another has undertaken the task. I'm sure the...

I was trying to search previous messages to see if my question had already been asked. I get no results...no matter what I search for. I even put in "FreePCB"...

All, I just updated the FpcLib and FpcRef utilities in the files section. FpcLib can now create rotated versions of existing footprints. FpcRef now has the...
Unlikely that you will unless someone has done some and uploads them. Even so its unlikely they will be the ones you want. There's nothing very special about...

... FreePCB does not support anything other than board layout. But there are free packages available that will do analog simulation. One I use is LTspice,...
I have a couple of things that I am having trouble with. The first is the board mounting holes. I just do not see a way of putting them in without creating a...
... I don't think you can add a mounting hole without it being a part. I was told to always add parts to the schematic for mounting holes and any other...
