This is nuts. I can buy 5 double sided PTH PCBs with solder mask and silk screen, for £1.60. With postage and custom fees, it comes to a total of £3.18. Economies of scale and automation gone mad. It almost makes me feel guilty to get them this cheap.

Meh, so is there a way to undo #KiCad8 "Fillet Tracks"?

Ich habe ein Problem mit #kicad 8. ich will ein Drecksignal in der #Simulation erzeugen. Aber der negative Teil wird einfach nicht erzeugt. Habe ich ein Fehler in der Signal Beschreibung.

As I'm wrapping up my first project with #kicad8 , the overall impression is positive. There are still a couple of idiotic things in there to be encountered, but overall (and as of v8 in particular), it has managed to completely nullify my need for Eagle.
I'm not saying this lightly. I've been waiting for this moment since v4.
Congratulations, KiCad Team.

What's currently the best way (if any) to realize copper thieving in #kicad8 ?
https://github.com/mrussell42/copper_thief fell victim to KiCad's update-break compatibility cycle.

#kicad8 hotkeys be like:
Expand selection E, but also Uand E is mapped to Edit Properties...

I also tried to have #OSHpark bid my #PCB fabrication.
Their website claims to support #KiCAD files directly, but it choked because I'm now on #KiCAD8 , which was released about a week ago.
They also wanted more for 3 pieces (with soldermask only available in their trademark purple) than I paid for 8 pieces (in my choice of color) through one of my old favorites, Colorado's #AdvancedCircuits ( 4pcb.com ).

And 8.0.0 library tags are pushed, the release of #KiCad8 is near 🥳
Footprints and symbols were updated to the new version. The format did not change significantly, but enough to warrant a re-save with #KiCad8. With `kicad-cli` that was really easy.
The CI-Pipeline that checks KLC conformity is not ready yet, so all your MRs will show red build results. This will be fixed soon.
