I have attached a patch to the bug report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/kicad/+bug/1659027/comments/14
I have tested on Linux and Windows but more testing/comments appreciated. Bugs fixed: 1. Rejection of 3D files with upper-case extensions in Windows 2. non-ASCII path bug in fileType() function of 3D plugin 3. non-ASCII path bugs in KiCad's 3D cache object Notes: * non-ASCII path bugs are likely present in the other 3D plugins (vrml, x3d, IDF) so I need to have a look at the code for those and fix the bugs. * there is a fundamental non-ASCII path bug in OpenCascade and by extension OCE: on Windows OpenCascade/OCE do not provide a mechanism for opening files via Windows' _wfopen() function so only files with a pure ASCII path may be processed. Some posts on the web suggest that this bug has been fixed in the latest version of OpenCascade but I haven't had time to verify this. For the moment, in Windows only, we cannot use files which have any non-ASCII characters in the absolute path. Linux is not affected and I have no idea about OSX. - Cirilo _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
