2012-01-09 16:59 for ps_a4, that means now it just became a checkbox in the ps tab 2012-01-09 17:00 dunno. as long as the dialogs stay close to themselves, that'll work 2012-01-09 17:00 if we follow that the cmdline syntax would change to --plot=ps --force-a4 2012-01-09 17:00 if not, we have more stability in the cmdline, but they diverge from the terminology and layout of the dialogs 2012-01-09 17:00 I rather go with kicad, unless we have a large cmdline user base (which we don't have today) 2012-01-09 17:02 you may be discussing this with just your entire user base ;-) 2012-01-09 17:02 yes 2012-01-09 17:02 world-class customer support, as always 2012-01-09 17:02 100% of customer needs addressed 2012-01-09 17:02 actually, seriously, that's the advantage of a smaller community :-) 2012-01-09 17:03 so we can switch to --plot=ps --force-a4 ? 2012-01-09 17:04 robably I would make it --ps-force-a4 2012-01-09 17:04 because the dialogs are clearly saying now which plot option the settings are for 2012-01-09 17:04 sounds better, yes. okay. i think i know where all my uses of pcbnew are. 2012-01-09 17:04 so --plot=ps --ps-force-a4 2012-01-09 17:05 (i currently always use pcbnew --plot=ps_a4) 2012-01-09 17:05 because in the old kicad dialogs, the list of formats was gerber/hpgl/dxf/ps/ps_a4 2012-01-09 17:05 so the cmdline options follow that 2012-01-09 17:05 ah :) 2012-01-09 17:05 but they moved the "Force A4 output" into the ps format now 2012-01-09 17:05 I think we shuold follow kicad 2012-01-09 17:06 even if that breaks cmdline compatibility 2012-01-09 17:16 skynet-2000 [skynet-2000!~skynet-20@unaffiliated/skynet2000] has joined #qi-hardware 2012-01-09 17:21 wej [wej!~j@m2.mullvad.net] has joined #qi-hardware 2012-01-09 17:34 wej [wej!~j@m2.mullvad.net] has joined #qi-hardware 2012-01-09 18:13 viric: no idea. but it looks like some kernel userspace incompatibility 2012-01-09 18:14 stefan_schmidt [stefan_schmidt!~stefan@p4FF891A7.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #qi-hardware 2012-01-09 18:48 jekhor [jekhor!~jek@vulture-nat-37.telecom.by] has joined #qi-hardware 2012-01-09 19:27 wpwrak: in pcbnew plotting, there is an option fill-all-zones 2012-01-09 19:28 I cannot find a match in the dialog of kicad HEAD anymore 2012-01-09 19:28 maybe this is always enabled now?
