In general what I'm trying to do is avoid the corners of the pads getting too close together (ie breaking the design rules). That way the pad can be a bit...

Glad that sorted out your problem. If you have made extensive additions keep a copy in your own directory. as the default file will get replaced during...
What new chips from chip manufacturers interest you? There are new and interesting chips I find on the TI, Analog, linear manufacturers websites. I also find...
It's essentially the same code. There will be minor differences due to the implementation of the graphics libs, but fairly minor. For linux just grab the linux...

Hi all, just a little question: is it possible for Kicad to design a fanout on a net (for example: GND). This would be very useful in the multilayer pcb case. ...
I recently look at the menu Design Rules --> Layer Setup in PCBNew and find that is possible to define a type for each layer. These types are: Signal Power ...
I was looking for a solution regarding this today too. I know this is an old post by Karl, but I figured it would be good to reply just the same. After...
Ack, I have 40+ pages in my schematics. This really counts as a bug for KiCad. The tool spontaneously resets the page number which changes the ref des...
