Hi Jean-Paul, nop, in what I designed there is no pen anywere. If you mean the present desgn, that was not done by me. Totally agree that: - Pens appear in the different size => bad - All Pens should go. As suggested already. Working on it. Cheers Fabrizio -- Fabrizio Tappero On Mon, May 4,

Hi Nick, the paper fold was an unlucky attempt to differentiate between tools. top right for the lib de and lib footprint editor and bottom right for the other main kicad programs. All in all is not a really lucky implementation. I will make the same fold for all. The book is not bad but a little

People recognize icons quickly by their silhouettes. This is already pretty hard with the existing KiCad icon set, and you're making it harder, by making so many icons into a symbol on top of paper. I agree that the icons need work, but we've got to keep good UI design practices in mind while
