[Kicad-developers] [PATCH] Large board speed

2018-05-24 Thread Seth Hillbrand
​Hi All-

Here's an updated patch for working with large, complex boards in v5.

Tom, I took your advice and put a light layer over an RTree for the
connectivity search.  Since this gets us bounding box collisions, we can do
commutative hits by using both items in the collision, eliminating the need
to iterate over the full list.

I also did a test merge with your dev tree and had only a couple minor
conflicts, so I think our approaches will compliment well.

It's not a full SHAPE collision, so it doesn't yet address
https://bugs.launchpad.net/kicad/+bug/1718831 but it speeds up the
connectivity and ratsnest to useable speeds for complex boards.

Please have a look and test-drive if possible.  Let me know if you see any
issues.  If you need a relatively complex board to test with with, you can
use https://github.com/ciaa/Hardware/tree/master/PCB/ACC/CIAA_ACC

Thanks Orson.

The look of this dialog is much better now.

Just two remarks about the dialog itself: the dialog is not re-sizable, and 
should be derived from
our DIALOG_SHIM base class.

Re: [Kicad-developers] More default fields in schematic

2018-05-24 Thread Jeff Young
OK, I double-checked.  The schematic doesn’t get the mandatory names at all 
(just 1, 2, 3, 4).  The netlist exporters (at least generic and kicad) write 
the untranslated version in all lower-case.  The BOM exporters use the generic 
netlist exporter.

The 4 known fields are hard-coded, so there’s no existing mechanism we could 
lean on to do the translations for “standard" default fields.  It’d probably be 
best to store them in English and translate going out to the UI….

Cheers,
Jeff

 That would be a good solution for me, having similar to layers a large
 set of predefined fields, being able to name them and enable them at
 will. But storing them in the files as the hard-codes values.
 
 This means a large change to the code though, at least if we must have
 the enable/disable feature for this, along with creating new custom
 fields. Not even the PCB editor has this yet. 
 
 Also, I don't think any of the bom exporter plug-ins are localized, and
 at least one of them completely ignores custom fields and adds it own
 instead, regardless of what is in the file.
 
 Meanwhile my patch does not affect existing installations, does not
 change any BOM, and does not enforce anything and comes in at a whooping
 3-4 lines of patch in a single file. It will however add 3 lines to two
 dialogs (field editor and symbol editor) for new installations, which
 can be removed, with 6 clicks of the mouse in eeschema.

Seth’s comment regarding localisation is an issue, though, as we
don’t currently translate default fields.

​Orson-

The new one looks good here.

I'd vote for skipping the extra string field for now and ignore hidden
files.

Are you sure you mean `git format-patch` and not `git send-email`? My
understanding is that git format-patch just produces a standard patch
file with a git-specific header containing authorship metadata.

Hmm, odd. I would expect git format-patch to produce . I'll investigate.

> patch to suggest that I hadn’t?

On my machine git format-patch creates a multi-part mime message.  I’m enough 
of a git noob not to know whether or not that’s a problem but when I try to 
apply your patch (which isn’t multi-part mime) using “git am” I get:

Applying: field editor: Find components when reference field is clicked
error: corrupt patch at line 21

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

I agree that the algorithm in your second patch is superior.  Do you want to 
re-implement it on the current code, or do you want me to change the existing 
algorithm?

Cheers,
Jeff.

Hi Brian and all,
I admit to use autorouter to produce many fully functional and professional
circuits (with Kicad obviously) . Sometimes I use manual routing for
controlled impedance/noise/... tracks but generally I use it, for
feasibilty and placement evaluation too.
Why demonize autorouter? I believe it is really useful :D

Thanks to support "autorouting" tool, with or without the specific dialog
