Hi, since I am going to design a PCB with a very repetitive structure, I just created a small Python module for merging multiple boards:
https://github.com/koalo/KiCad_PCBmerge It works similar to the "Append Board" feature, but can be executed automatically to make it easier to maintain changes and rebuild the board. The boards are aligned at a common module, for example a pin header. A more holistic approach would be to implement this blueprint https://blueprints.launchpad.net/kicad/+spec/layouts-as-footprint but I think that is still a long way to go. Is there any other idea or work in this direction? Any suggestions for enhancing the Python module? Any desires to integrate this functionality into the core?
