Version 0.5.5

Overview

This version mainly fixes a few user interface issues.

Plugin GUI Fixes

  • Focusing a PCB footprint by clicking the corresponding item in a change or error list now works again.
  • Alignment of some GUI dialog elements was fixed.
  • Dialogs do not use markup anymore, as it caused a lot of trouble (at least on wxWidgets 3.3.x under Windows).
  • The User Guide link in the error message dialog is now set to a correct URL.

CLI Fixes

  • If --no-variants is given, ignore errors in the Variant Definition Table file.
  • A potential argument attribute error when using the state command was fixed.
  • A missing pcbnew module (due to incorrect installation of either KiVar CLI or KiCad) is now handled gracefully.
