Re: List of Experienced Freelancers

 

I personaly had some horrible experience with UpWork and also
some good. You have to be VERY carfull when you specify what should
be done and be extreemly willing to whatch over the work - on a day to
day basis.

However, if I searched with the term "Freelance KiCad design" I got more relevant results, two being:

You should also state the complexity. How many components (about), RF design (if so), size (about), no of layers, etc etc..

Re: List of Experienced Freelancers

 

If there is no list, perhaps you'd wish to describe what the project is.
Someone here might then be interested in contacting you directly.

Re: Copy vs Duplicate #tutorial

 

Copy goes via the clipboard, so you can paste the copied item multiple
times, and/or in other windows.

Duplicate only works in the current window, but it eliminates the need
to paste.

Re: Printing PCB - is it possible to suppress the copper pours ??

 

Exactly, this is the solution.

Copy vs Duplicate #tutorial

 

Any idea what the major differences are between using Copy vs Duplicate in KiCad?? If it would be helpful in a tutorial, I'd like to help new users know up front- if it will only add confusion, I'll leave it out.
?
I have tried looking in the forum and docs.kicad.org and have come up empty.?
?
I could have sworn there were advantages to using one over the other.
?
Kind regards,
Brian
Re: Printing PCB - is it possible to suppress the copper pours ??

 

Ignore my previous post! I just tried on version 5 again, and it has the same problem; can't eliminate the fill zones.?
?
But I found a workaround! If you temporarily remove the fill zone outlines, you get this:

Hitting Ctrl-Z twice will restore the fill zones.

Re: Printing PCB - is it possible to suppress the copper pours ??

 

I've been using version 5 for several years, but just installed version 9. In version 5, I can print without the fills, for example:

Can't seem to do it in version 9 even though the fills are turned off in the sidebar.

I find this format is good when documenting my projects. Any help would be appreciated!
Re: Uploading a tube amplifier netlist on Files section

 

Update. I also found the section for controlling uploads of photos. So I have now enabled photos but restricted them to 1024 x 1024 pixels. You can upload larger ones than this but they will automatically be scaled to this size.

Cheers

Now find a copy of rzsz-3.3.6 for an error correcting file transfer protocol. It supports xon/xoff and can move files at 9600 baud, achieving 720 cps on a 6309 nitros9 machine and around 600 cps on a 6809 machine. 3.2.4 and above to 3.3.6 came from my machine but only 3.3.6 has an improved table driven crc generator that nearly doubles its speed.? Many versions of zmodem, the common name for this protocol do not support xon/xoff so are restricted to 1200 baud. And may foul it. Accept no subs.

Re: Uploading a tube amplifier netlist on Files section

 

It turns out you cannot set the file size of images . The board also supports databases which can include photos the size of which can be limited but I am not sure if that would be any use.

Re: Uploading a tube amplifier netlist on Files section

 

OK, it turns out that this feature is not turned on for regular users. It took a while to trawl through the admin user interface to find the right setting but I think it should now allow all members to upload files and create directories. We only have 1G of space in the files section so for the moment I have disabled uploading pictures.

Let me know if you can now upload files.

Cheers
