To get around the lack of an "undo", I always make "checkpoints" by saving the board just before I am abuot to do something major (read that as: stupid). If I mess up, I just close without saving and reopen the latest checkpoint. It takes some discipline, but works better than any undo.

I tried Kicad nearly a year ago. I really liked it and found it to be easy to learn and use. The only thing keeping me from using it and recommending it to others was the lack of undo in PCBNEW. To me, laying out a PCB is a creative process and knowing that any step I try is permanent really stifles the creative process. No way I could use a layout program without it. Does anyone know if an undo function is in the works? ------------------------------------ Please read the Kicad FAQ in the group files section before posting your question.
