| Subject: | [pcb-rnd] release: pcb-rnd 3.0.6 is available |
Hi all,
I've just released pcb-rnd 3.0.6 with a many new features and a lot of
bugfixes. This is the last release before the librnd4 switchover.
http://www.repo.hu/projects/pcb-rnd/releases
pcb-rnd roadmap:
- librnd 4.0.0 switchover; normal feature development and bugfixing paused
for this development cycle
- next release: early February
- after that a normal development cycle to catch up with feature requests
and bugfixes
Release notes:
pcb-rnd 3.0.6
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This release introduces a major font engine refactoring (for reuse in other
Ringdove apps) and minor bugfixes (see the Changelog for details).
Feature highlights are:
1. plugin for importing netlist/schematics from sch-rnd
2. refactored font engine (reused in sch-rnd)
3. new font edit actions: FontXform(), FontSetXdelta(), FontNormalize()
4. switched over some exporters (png, svg, ps, lpr) to use librnd's
implementation instead of the local; pcb-rnd now depends on
librnd >= 3.2.0
5. plugin for ordering PCB fabbing directly from pcb-rnd; can remember
settings in board attributes
6. PadstackReplace() action and menu item: mass-replaces the padstack
prototype or selected padstacks, even within subcircuits
7. named all HPANE/VPANE widgets; from now on saving and restoring window
geometry will also save/restore pane proportions
8. change in default file naming conventions: *.rp for boards, *.rf for
footprints; old filenames also work, users are free to choose whatever
name for new files despite of the new conventions.
9. new exporter: export_debug writes easy-to-process, computer-readable,
line-oriented plain text
10. menu for saving first padstack from buffer; this makes padstack
construction fully consistent with subcircuit construction
Best regards,
Igor2
