KiCad TODO List =============== CMAKE ----- * Add install targets for binaries and resources on Mac. * Add Python. Common ------ *BUGS* * PCBNew and EEschema opened and rotating a footprint in pcbnew let the EESchema drawing flikker/refresh. * Grep for @TODO or TODO for sourcecode tasks * Use doxygen compatible comments on member functions (.h files) * Add tooltip text to all non-obvious controls in every dialog window. Need to do this using DialogBlocks. * Component and module search displays in which library the module or component lives. * Create a better and cleaner add component and footprint dialog. * List auto up and down scrolling. * Toolbars and menus should be equal. * Select one component, not a whole block (like in PCB, EAGLE, MultiSim/Ultiboard) * Cursor selection * Cross small * Cross fullscreen * Normal arrow * (Main) dialog(s) title(s) should always be the same and not change over time when not needed. For example KiCad - or PCBNew - . We dont have to see which build in the titlebar. This makes documentation screenshots also easier. We already have the build information in the about dialog. * Integer/long/double input boxes should handle comma and dot separated values, not only comma. * Undo/Redo should have more steps (or could be setable). CvPCB ----- * Preview of the already assigned footprint. EESchema -------- *BUGS* * If we add multiple leds and connect them with one wire there is no junction placed between the ends, then I have to place manual the junctions or else it is not connected in the netlist so only one led/connection is made (for example to the Power GND symbol). *Improvements* * Component add list browser with optional component preview. * Use collector classes. * Drag and drop between two EESchema windows. GerbView -------- * Need work as good as gerbv from gEDA * Named layers * List control for layer sort on the fly * Add excellon2 drill file support (small good library) * Fix the polygon bug. * Switch to use ZONE instead of SEGZONE for polygons. KiCad ----- PCBNew ------ *BUGS* * Backspace hotkey for deleting track segment doesn't work. * Delete hotkey for deleting a track doesn't work. * Fix block copy/move preview to not view only a border, we should see the moved/copied parts. * Fix DIALOG_PAD_PROPERTIES_BASE class to use actual layer names in the BOARD. * Via's * Show via's like normal pad but with different colors, not only circles. * Resizing/placing vias should not be so odd, should be easier and more advanced features like the other EDA applications. * Use BOARD_ITEM::MenuIcon() in the onrightclick.cpp * Add unroute option in rightclick menu for components * Document specctra round tripper, and fix the english translation of help. * Expose layer name editing. Should dove tail with net class editor from a UI perspective. * Add ARC support to gerber polygons. * Need to add polygon aperture type. Then example 2 in RS274xrevd_e.pdf will draw properly. * Look at mouse auto-scroll modes (bug?) * Add the footprint name in the automatic placement file * Footprint list should also have a footprint preview.
