I have a suggestions for you while your working on that.
Can you have DRC-Bot show a 0 to 100% scale of how much
space/time is left before the next panel is full to order?
Seems like you should be able to get those calculations from
the panelizer.
Many of us are interested in low cost four layer boards, but
not really all that interested in the two to three month
lead time for them mentioned in the FAQ.
If DRC-Bot showed a percentage, for both two and four layer,
it would give people more incentive to order more boards
to up the percentage. Kind of like going for High Score. :-)
If I only need one board, but saw that the percentage was close
to ordering it would motivate me to order a few more to get
the order moving.
Of course this could work in reverse, if the percentage is low,
it might keep people from ordering because they think
it will take to long. So maybe DRC-Bot should not show the percentage
until it passes 50 or 75%?
