Re: [Q] Is there Auto-routing in v5.1.10 ??


 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

At last I have some time to look at the video for this - looks relatively easy :-) It certainly worked well for a simple board design I have.? It will be interesting to see how it goes with a more complex/crowded design.

The video I found very good and gave me the confidence to try again.

Regards,
Dave

Hi Peter,
Glad to read you.
And fellicitations for your brilliant tutos with very clear and objectives explanations, the way it should be !
I've bought your KiCad book from Elektor e-shop, and most probably will view soon your last video presenting your 'V6 experience' for sure :-!).

Thanks for the info, even if I've already those freerouting jar and source code (got a few years ago when installing the jar and the java sdk on different PCs and different OS Ubuntu and WIN10 for my part).
Done for my personnal leisure-time projects (not to say 'home-works', as if I feel going back to school but with different interesting tools to have...).

Presently I'm working with the V5.1.8. (preferably to experiment V5.99 or awaiting the official stable V6, rather than moving to the intermediate 5.1.10...).

- Where to get and install under WIN10 the pre-V6 (so-called 'nightly V5.99') ?
- Where to load the project source code, and regenerate locally a 'V5.99 exe' ?
- Have you generated it or just using a V5.99 exe one, previously downloaded from somewhere ?

Best Regards from France !

Hi Gerard, my pleasure.

Just noting that the same instructions work on KiCad 6 (or current nightly build 5.99).

One change I recommend is the download source for freerouting. Best to use?.

Kind regards,

Peter
