@github-actions github-actions released this 16 Mar 16:35

Added

  • KiCad 7.0.1 support
  • Global options:
    • allow_blind_buried_vias and allow_microvias for KiCad 7 (no longer in
      KiCad)
    • erc_grid to specify the grid size for KiCad 7 ERC tests
  • Report:
    • Counters for total vias and by via type (vias_count, thru_vias_count,
      blind_vias_count and micro_vias_count)
    • Warnings when micro and/or blind vias aren't allowed, but we found them.
  • KiCad 7 specific:
    • Avoid warnings about missing coutyard for footprints marked as excluded
      from courtyard tests.
    • kicad_dnp_applied global option to use the Do Not Populate schematic
      flag as do not fit for KiBot, enabled by default.
    • kicad_dnp_applies_to_3D global option to eliminate the 3D models of
      components marked as Do Not Populate. This option applies to the case
      where no filter or variants are in use. Enabled by default. The
      kicad_dnp_applied option also disables it.
    • cross_using_kicad global option to use KiCad to cross DNP components in
      the schematic. Enabled by default.

Fixed

  • Problems to detect the schematic name when the path to the config contained a
    dot that isn't used for an extension and some particular conditions were met.
  • PCB Print: KiCad crashing on some complex filled zones (#396)
