WEBVTT 00:00.000 --> 00:08.000 Why do you get through this as fast as I can at least in time for Q&A? 00:08.000 --> 00:13.960 So what's been going on with KeyCAD in the last year? 00:13.960 --> 00:21.240 Lots were going on, but one thing that didn't go on was we think 9.0 released on Friday. 00:21.240 --> 00:23.080 We ran into a few showstoppers. 00:23.080 --> 00:28.800 I think we're going to do an RC3 in the next probably I'd say Tuesday or Wednesday timeframe 00:28.800 --> 00:33.280 and then if there's no showstoppers, it'd be about a week from there when we released 00:33.280 --> 00:34.800 9. 00:34.800 --> 00:41.440 So the patient should be another 7 to 10 days and 9.0 will be out. 00:41.440 --> 00:44.200 So we started our donation campaign late this year. 00:44.200 --> 00:48.400 I think this number's a little behind, but we have a goal about 128K or probably right 00:48.400 --> 00:51.040 around 35 right now. 00:51.040 --> 00:56.600 So we'd like to see that increase a little bit over the next couple of months. 00:56.600 --> 01:00.680 We received another NLNet grant of 50,000 years last year, which was really helpful. 01:00.680 --> 01:04.880 We got to pay a bunch of developers to work on stuff and that really helped. 01:04.880 --> 01:08.720 We just applied for another donation again this year for more money. 01:08.720 --> 01:13.880 So we might actually be able to even do some increased development for next year. 01:13.880 --> 01:20.560 We had our second annual KeyCAD Europe Conference in Book of Germany on September 19th and 20th 01:20.560 --> 01:21.560 of last year. 01:21.560 --> 01:25.240 If you didn't make that and you're here in Europe, highly recommended it would turn out 01:25.280 --> 01:30.760 but the first time it was in Bookham, the previous year was in Aquaronia, it turned out to be a fantastic 01:30.760 --> 01:31.760 conference. 01:31.760 --> 01:35.720 So if you're here in Europe, you get chance to try to make it out for 2025. 01:35.720 --> 01:42.680 We had our second KeyCAD Conference in Shenzhen in China on November 15th and 16th also 01:42.680 --> 01:47.880 different than the German Conference, but really neat because they scheduled the same 01:47.880 --> 01:51.080 week in the Shenzhen Maker Fair if you have a chance to get to that one if you're 01:51.120 --> 01:59.120 ever in Shenzhen, China for work or anything, excellent, really good conference. 01:59.120 --> 02:03.600 We had the library team added a bunch of new members this year so the library team is 02:03.600 --> 02:05.800 really looking a good shape. 02:05.800 --> 02:08.520 So good for them. 02:08.520 --> 02:16.400 We've got a lot of new contributors to the small contributors for the source code branch. 02:16.400 --> 02:20.200 Maybe we will, some of those will turn into lead developers who knows. 02:20.280 --> 02:22.840 It's a little early for that yet. 02:22.840 --> 02:31.720 Finally, KeyCAD, USA is going to return this year in May, 27th, through the 30th. 02:31.720 --> 02:36.560 We'll be in San Diego, California at the University of California, San Diego. 02:36.560 --> 02:43.160 So if you're in the states and you want to come to a KeyCAD in the US, put that on your calendar. 02:43.160 --> 02:50.920 And if you keep up your eyes open on the KeyCon website or the, for more information, 02:50.920 --> 02:53.840 we should have stuff available for that soon. 02:53.840 --> 02:57.120 So the goal is to have three conferences every year. 02:57.120 --> 03:01.960 KeyCAD stores open for those of you who think we ran out of swag yesterday and still 03:01.960 --> 03:09.440 looking for stuff, head on out to the store and order, get your orders in. 03:09.440 --> 03:14.000 We have four Platinum, five silver and seven bronze sponsors. 03:14.000 --> 03:18.280 We're down a little bit from last year, so hopefully we can bounce back on that. 03:18.280 --> 03:26.320 And our Platinum sponsors, who we'd like to really thank our Isler, next PCB, KeyCAD 03:26.320 --> 03:29.160 services corporation and PCB way. 03:29.160 --> 03:35.320 So thanks to those organizations for helping out the project. 03:35.360 --> 03:39.000 Okay, so what happened in version nine? 03:39.000 --> 03:43.360 Now, there's, there's a lot of quality of life stuff that I had to pair from here. 03:43.360 --> 03:45.000 This is mostly feature stuff. 03:45.000 --> 03:50.240 So there's a lot more of this than this if you're interested in what all that is, head 03:50.240 --> 03:54.680 out to the user form and go to the post V8 development news. 03:54.680 --> 03:58.680 And that's a pretty complete list of everything that got into nine. 03:58.680 --> 03:59.800 So what's first? 03:59.840 --> 04:05.240 So we've been struggling with the Python plugin for quite a long time. 04:05.240 --> 04:09.520 And we start, we're starting now to replace that with internal procedure call that we put 04:09.520 --> 04:14.920 a Python plugin on top of, so you can't accidentally take down KeyCAD. 04:14.920 --> 04:18.840 The problem with rapid using the old graphics was it exposed too much of KeyCAD that 04:18.840 --> 04:23.160 really shouldn't have gotten exposed to the plugin. 04:23.160 --> 04:25.000 This is, we're getting started on that. 04:25.000 --> 04:29.000 This isn't the board, the board editor only for now. 04:29.000 --> 04:34.640 And then you file, a lot of files in KeyCAD, we just a link from an external source. 04:34.640 --> 04:37.680 You can now have an option to embed them directly into KeyCAD. 04:37.680 --> 04:41.080 So you don't have to remember to drag your external links with the FOMC computer to 04:41.080 --> 04:42.080 computer. 04:42.080 --> 04:45.400 Of course, it makes your files a lot bigger, but it's also a lot more portable. 04:45.400 --> 04:48.320 Like all things, there's trade-offs. 04:48.320 --> 04:51.080 We now have custom ERC and ERC errors. 04:51.080 --> 04:53.960 You can assign, you can create your own error types. 04:53.960 --> 05:00.400 And for anything special that you have, and here you can see, like, hey, we need to calculate 05:00.400 --> 05:05.200 a value for this resistor, just simple notes that you can add above and beyond what the 05:05.200 --> 05:08.520 standard ERC-DLC does. 05:08.520 --> 05:13.520 You could all, you've been able to exclude DRC and ERC errors for a long time, but now you 05:13.520 --> 05:14.800 can add comments to those. 05:14.800 --> 05:18.480 So you might want to add a note as to why you just said, oh, that, you can ignore that. 05:18.480 --> 05:19.480 It's okay. 05:19.880 --> 05:24.680 Maybe the next guy down to who gets your design has to work on it, and there's why you 05:24.680 --> 05:28.640 just carefully ignored that one. 05:28.640 --> 05:33.520 You can now export 3D models from the command line interface, including ray tracing, 05:33.520 --> 05:37.520 so you get all your pretty pictures. 05:37.520 --> 05:38.520 Table support. 05:38.520 --> 05:45.240 We now, all the editor support having tables, and it includes the schematic, the board, and 05:45.240 --> 05:47.440 the two, the simple footprint library editors. 05:47.440 --> 05:53.720 So you can now put tables, and there, you can have, you know, merge rows, most of the normal 05:53.720 --> 05:58.560 operations that you can do with tables. 05:58.560 --> 06:04.240 There is now an output job manager where you can create all your outputs that you want 06:04.240 --> 06:08.480 to do to create for your documentation, and as you go through here, and you can see this, 06:08.480 --> 06:12.840 I'm not going to just play all the way out, but you can create a complex output job with 06:12.840 --> 06:16.840 a single clickable button, and you can just output all your outputs at one time, right? 06:16.840 --> 06:20.240 So if that's something new, and there's things that will be portable between projects, 06:20.240 --> 06:25.880 and maybe your company has a standard set of outputs that you always have to have for 06:25.880 --> 06:31.260 going into production, this is a, once, you know, previous you had to open all the different 06:31.260 --> 06:36.000 editors up and create all your plots, and whatnot, that's all, that can all be done through 06:36.000 --> 06:40.280 this interface now. 06:40.280 --> 06:44.360 But we at, oh, won't you fast? 06:44.400 --> 06:48.400 We reverse, we added a reverse, this is one of those ones that request that even though 06:48.400 --> 06:54.280 we, we follow the standard zoom, almost every cat package, zoom's the same way we do. 06:54.280 --> 06:57.680 Yeah, there's always a few people that want to be able to change the direction of the zoom, 06:57.680 --> 07:02.440 so we added that this year. 07:02.440 --> 07:09.160 You can now create a reference points in your images, so when you're scaling them, or 07:09.160 --> 07:16.160 dragging them, it'll, it'll scale and drive from the reference point. 07:16.160 --> 07:28.400 All right, come on, is that the, is that the, okay, area, best of your curves, I show you 07:28.400 --> 07:33.600 that's a line, we've had best of your curve, curve support forever, and you could edit them, 07:33.600 --> 07:37.000 but you could never create them, there's an output tool now on all the editors to create 07:37.000 --> 07:38.000 them. 07:38.000 --> 07:40.200 Yeah, it was just one of those things we just never got around, because it wasn't really 07:40.200 --> 07:44.840 that common, but they're, they're there now. 07:44.840 --> 07:49.120 Component classes, you can add component classes, which, two symbols that get passed 07:49.120 --> 07:55.360 on to your, your footprint, and you can use them as conditions in your, your design rules, 07:55.360 --> 08:00.000 so your, your complex design rules, you can now create conditions from the schematic and 08:00.000 --> 08:02.880 pass that through. 08:02.880 --> 08:07.680 For those of you who are into those kind of advanced kind of fun things, there's also 08:07.680 --> 08:14.800 a mouse scroll, we have a little action, so you can now use a, a modify or key to do things 08:14.800 --> 08:20.560 like increment and decrement, you're, it's just a little, that's a nice one of those quality 08:20.560 --> 08:21.560 of life functions. 08:21.560 --> 08:22.560 Yeah. 08:22.560 --> 08:30.840 I wish the developer who was here did that was here, because he would enjoy the round 08:30.840 --> 08:31.840 of applause. 08:31.840 --> 08:36.800 So you ever see John Beard, thank you. 08:36.800 --> 08:37.800 This is a big one. 08:37.800 --> 08:38.800 This is a big one. 08:38.800 --> 08:41.640 This video is long, so I'm not going to, you're not going to see much of it. 08:41.640 --> 08:47.360 But we now do multi-channel design support, so you have a multi-channel part, you can 08:47.360 --> 08:54.480 lay out the one-channel, select all the other ones that are, it's channel by, it's channel 08:54.480 --> 08:59.600 by hierarchical sheet, and then you lay out the one-channel, you select all the other 08:59.600 --> 09:04.120 channels, you click a button, it will, exactly duplicate the same layout as the reference 09:04.120 --> 09:05.120 channel. 09:05.120 --> 09:11.360 And so then you just place the whole channel, so it's big chunks, so you lay out just on the 09:11.360 --> 09:15.440 board your one-channel and automatically generates that for all the other channels, and 09:15.440 --> 09:16.920 then it's yeah. 09:16.920 --> 09:20.600 So I like to let that play, but I just don't have time. 09:20.600 --> 09:26.840 So it's going to play them, because there we go. 09:26.840 --> 09:30.720 There's now a tool, so one of the things that was always awkward in T-CAD is that you have 09:30.720 --> 09:35.840 a sheet, and it has hierarchical pins, and then you have to put those hierarchical labels 09:35.840 --> 09:38.200 in the schematic that it references. 09:38.200 --> 09:40.600 There's now a tool that goes back and forth. 09:40.600 --> 09:44.000 You can do those without having to open up the one sheet, go back into the other sheet, 09:44.000 --> 09:45.000 back and forth. 09:45.000 --> 09:50.720 There's now rule areas in the schematic editor, so instead of having to sign a rule 09:50.720 --> 09:57.000 to each one of these nets individually, you can just draw a box around it and just sign 09:57.000 --> 10:07.120 a net class to all those lines or nets at the same time. 10:07.120 --> 10:13.120 We now are starting to get design blocks implemented, the initial implementation is just 10:13.160 --> 10:18.400 schematics, sub schematics. 10:18.400 --> 10:24.920 This will be fleshed out further in version 10 to include the board part of it as well. 10:24.920 --> 10:31.000 It's a net navigator, the original net navigator only showed the currently select. 10:31.000 --> 10:34.760 If you had a hot net highlighted, one of the reasons that was like that was because of 10:34.760 --> 10:40.000 performance issues, but we resolve those, and now that you can still perform this issue, 10:40.040 --> 10:44.840 if you have a super, super complex, because if you show all the nets and you have a board 10:44.840 --> 10:49.720 that has 5,000,000,000 nets, it takes a lot of generate that, but now you can make some 10:49.720 --> 10:54.400 easy to navigate through your schematic by net instead of by hierarchy. 10:54.400 --> 10:57.960 There's selection filters in the schematic in a symbol editors, you know, you can turn 10:57.960 --> 11:03.000 off what you're allowed to select, so you can do box selecting and just select all 11:03.000 --> 11:07.560 your pins, turn everything else off, or maybe you don't want to select everything, but 11:07.560 --> 11:10.760 you don't want to have the pins. 11:10.760 --> 11:15.320 We now have an option to exclude from simulation, so if you do a lot of simulation and you 11:15.320 --> 11:21.240 have a, a symbol in your schematic that you don't want to simulate, can drop that. 11:21.240 --> 11:25.480 She level DMPs, you can just, not do not populate everything in that sheet and everything 11:25.480 --> 11:26.680 that's below it. 11:26.680 --> 11:33.480 There's a couple new electrical rules check, you've got checks for global and local labels 11:33.480 --> 11:41.720 that have the same net name, also, whyers that don't have any connection at all. 11:41.720 --> 11:47.560 Can now sign more than one net class to a net, you can kind of granularize your net classes 11:47.560 --> 11:50.640 and then just kind of stuck them all together and they get merged together in the one 11:50.640 --> 11:56.480 net that allows you a little bit of flexibility and how you, you know, sign your net classes 11:56.480 --> 11:58.480 to your net. 11:58.480 --> 12:02.840 You can highlight my color instead of the magenta that used to be the default, you can 12:02.840 --> 12:13.640 highlight, if you use colored nets, you can use the do not populate indicator on your plots 12:13.640 --> 12:17.760 to not show that when you plot your outputs. 12:17.760 --> 12:23.160 Now for those of you who are importing stuff from Eagle that used modules, the schematic 12:23.160 --> 12:28.880 important now in port, imports the modules, there's now a pin drag editor that you select 12:28.880 --> 12:33.840 the sign that drags all the pins with you instead of you having to move the pin separate 12:33.840 --> 12:35.880 from resizing the body. 12:35.880 --> 12:43.720 There's a lot more quality of life stuff, this is just touching the big ones here. 12:43.720 --> 12:47.960 There's now indicator so you know you can, you've been able to have alternate function 12:47.960 --> 12:51.880 pins for a long time and keypad, but now we have an option to turn a little indicator 12:51.880 --> 12:56.560 to let you know hey these pins have alternate functions, these don't and you can save 12:56.560 --> 13:02.080 derived symbols instead of before you had to I save the parent symbols before you 13:02.080 --> 13:08.800 saved the highest child that you were trying to save into a separate library. 13:08.800 --> 13:14.800 Now you can just save the derived children and it'll save all the parent, the whole stack 13:14.800 --> 13:16.800 over to the new library. 13:16.800 --> 13:22.400 There's now a zone manager before you had to manage zones one by one now you can manage 13:22.400 --> 13:27.080 all your zones in the single frame, you know pre-render it in here and get an idea what 13:27.080 --> 13:28.800 the change is going to make. 13:28.800 --> 13:36.680 We also have ODB plus plus x port as well that was done recently. 13:36.680 --> 13:40.120 The net inspectors have been moved from a panel, used to be a standalone dialogue which 13:40.120 --> 13:46.840 was a model block you know block you from do other things, it's now just a panel in the 13:46.840 --> 13:53.400 board editor, we have fine control of via tenting before you can only have them on and 13:53.400 --> 14:01.040 off, now you can have top bottom and turn that per via or per through whole tenting so 14:01.040 --> 14:07.840 you can really fine control your tenting if you have any odd requirements for tenting. 14:07.840 --> 14:13.520 The 3D models now have solder mask and silk screens on them so they're a little bit more 14:13.560 --> 14:15.920 complete than they used to be. 14:15.920 --> 14:21.280 There's also an option to filter like if you don't want to include certain 3D models in 14:21.280 --> 14:27.880 your bottom there, there's like a filter you can do like star or not showing your 14:27.880 --> 14:34.640 resistors or something like that, your resistor models in your 3D model output. 14:34.640 --> 14:41.200 There's now a DRC for differential skew so it'll tell you if you can say don't allow 14:41.200 --> 14:46.200 a skew of more than X, it'll fly it. 14:46.200 --> 14:50.880 There's if you do a lot of blind and buried viaes, we now we now have we can you can create 14:50.880 --> 14:55.720 lists of layer pairs that allow you to easily cycle while you're doing those intern 14:55.720 --> 14:59.920 layers like your print, you're crossing two or three layers, you can now create layer 14:59.920 --> 15:07.080 pairs, it makes that job a lot easier, there's a dog bone tool, everybody knows if you 15:07.240 --> 15:10.520 Joel will cut out in a board that never has square edges because you can't round 15:10.520 --> 15:15.360 a square, the router bits are always going to be round and leave a little round, nibbles 15:15.360 --> 15:25.360 on the side, if there's a tool now that automatically generates those, you can position 15:25.360 --> 15:32.160 references arbitrarily in the positioning tool, we now have snap indicators for cursors 15:32.160 --> 15:39.120 so you can see what you're being snapped to, you'll see that it'll blip up a little 15:39.120 --> 15:45.600 that's there, you can now, before the user layers were just always part of a stack, 15:45.600 --> 15:50.440 you can now actually define a pair of top bottom user layers so that the one that's on 15:50.440 --> 15:56.160 the bottom will be merely just like a bottom layer and so you can before we could, they 15:56.160 --> 16:00.560 were just all positive layers that you looked at for the top now, you can assign pairs 16:00.560 --> 16:07.560 of top and bottom, there's a handy little tool for like if you're a footprint, I'll 16:07.560 --> 16:14.600 come on, oh there it goes, so outside it's just, you know, it draws an outline around 16:14.600 --> 16:19.280 whatever object you have selected so it's handy for doing things like throwing together 16:19.280 --> 16:25.880 your own footprint's up, just give us a sec there, just fun stuff like that, it's pretty 16:25.880 --> 16:33.880 simple, what does it mean, it's playing here a month, I'm not good, I don't have time, 16:33.880 --> 16:40.160 pad steps, so now you can define different shapes, sizes, pads on your layers, right? 16:40.160 --> 16:46.400 So if you have any real complex layout things that you need to do with this, you have 16:46.400 --> 16:50.280 pad stacks, they can be different shapes, different shapes, you know, you can have a different 16:50.280 --> 16:55.840 shape on either any layer, different sizes, this is kind of a necessary for us because 16:55.840 --> 17:01.800 we import from all team, and our all team import can now import their pad stacks, so 17:01.800 --> 17:09.580 we can not lose any fidelity when we import, you can have solder masks, you can remove the 17:09.580 --> 17:17.040 solder masks from any arbitrary track, there's an acute angle, DRC, you can tell you, you 17:17.040 --> 17:21.880 can say what the minimum acute angle is in little flag any angles that you accidentally 17:21.920 --> 17:30.800 routed wrong, come on, there you go, there's now clearance indicators for DRC, before 17:30.800 --> 17:35.800 it was just a number, so you click on the DRC air and it'll show you where the clearance 17:35.800 --> 17:42.560 violation is, that's a useful feature, if you're doing a lot of high density stuff, because 17:42.560 --> 17:48.280 sometimes it's hard to see where your clearance air actually is, we changed, we added 17:48.320 --> 17:53.720 external dimension leaders, before all we had as internals, now you can do all of them, 17:53.720 --> 18:02.720 there's an interactive position, until you can position an object relative to another object, 18:02.720 --> 18:07.680 there's now a creepy DRC, and if you do a lot of stuff with voltage, when you want to 18:07.680 --> 18:14.160 make sure you're not violating any voltage issues, there's creepy, creepy just slightly 18:14.240 --> 18:18.960 different than clearance, because clearance is a physical dimension, it's dimensional, this 18:18.960 --> 18:28.240 is a little bit different, if you know why you need that you do, if you don't, it's variable, 18:28.240 --> 18:33.000 variable, diameter of v is now, you can change like this, the v is that kind of came along 18:33.000 --> 18:38.120 with pad stacks, and then we've changed the rendering so you can see how, if you look at 18:38.120 --> 18:45.040 the VAU, you can tell by looking at the rendering, if that's a uniform VAU, or if it's 18:45.040 --> 18:52.800 padded or different sizes, this one's been around F4 for a long time, multi-track, you 18:52.800 --> 18:56.280 can not, push the throttle out and out as well as you do, it doesn't allow you to route 18:56.280 --> 19:00.920 multiple net yet, that's going to be coming in 10, but you can drag a bunch of 19:00.920 --> 19:04.880 a minute, it'll push and shove everything out of the way, so that's going to be 19:04.880 --> 19:13.720 in nine, or we added, I think all the models that Obi-Cascade supports now are 3D model 19:13.720 --> 19:20.640 out ports, so you get XA or LSTL, B-Rap, and PLI, if you use those for whatever CAD tools 19:20.640 --> 19:27.200 you use, and we can chamfer zone corners, it's just a simple chamfering tool, the fill 19:27.200 --> 19:34.200 tool didn't get done yet, that'll get done in 10, so lots of things have, and that 19:34.200 --> 19:44.040 almost forgot, we added tolerance to the regulator, or tolerances, so just a quick overview, 19:44.040 --> 19:52.120 we added 43, 4300 commits by 78 authors, we're up to 1.7 million lines of code, that's 19:52.120 --> 19:59.120 not included translations, about 2K of that's comments, a simple library added, almost 19:59.120 --> 20:08.280 1500 for a total of 21, 75, 55, footprint library added 756 for total, 14, 210, so, and 20:08.280 --> 20:14.360 then 30 models was 130 for 68, 33, so our libraries have grown quite well, and our back 20:14.360 --> 20:18.280 wall, one of the things that was really impressive is our back wall is now down quite a bit 20:18.280 --> 20:23.920 over what's even last year, which we made our first big dent in the back wall, there 20:23.920 --> 20:32.160 was 2010 MRs created during the V9 development period, which works out at the 5.5 merge 20:32.160 --> 20:36.840 requests per day, so lots of people are contributing symbols for print models, and that's 20:36.840 --> 20:40.360 for all these people, everyone out there who's doing that, thank you, we really appreciate 20:40.360 --> 20:48.240 the contributions, and we've got the MR merged time from 10 days down to 3 days, so, 20:48.480 --> 20:53.760 we're getting, we have a good team, and that whole process has really gotten streamlined 20:53.760 --> 20:58.840 a lot better, and our translations were about the same as they were last year, so, what's 20:58.840 --> 21:04.080 coming for version 10, we're going to have to switch the board editor from 32 bit to 64 21:04.080 --> 21:11.480 bit coordinates for all you people who do parse exercise boards, because apparently, like 21:11.480 --> 21:16.680 four meters isn't enough, so I don't have any people out there doing that, but apparently 21:16.760 --> 21:22.440 they are, we're going to move T-CAD to a single binary, so the days of having multiple 21:22.440 --> 21:28.600 executed executables is hopefully going to, and that'll, for more standpoint, a greatly 21:28.600 --> 21:32.560 simple, fly things internally, right now T-CAD has a lot of plumbing under the hood that 21:32.560 --> 21:42.680 has to support the multiple executables, custom toolbar layouts, that's been coming, we 21:42.680 --> 21:47.680 actually paid the folks at WX widgets to help us out with that, because that internally, 21:47.680 --> 21:53.320 they controlled how that worked, and we tried to work around it, we couldn't, so we now 21:53.320 --> 21:59.560 we, when WX widgets 3.3 is released, we will have that, and that should happen during 21:59.560 --> 22:07.560 10, you can ping, a plot directly to pings now, there's going to be a design migration 22:07.560 --> 22:13.440 import wizard, like right now, our importers are kind of like scattered, some, are part of, 22:13.440 --> 22:18.200 some do, do it most of it for you, some you have to do manually, it's a little cumbersome, 22:18.200 --> 22:22.200 we're going to have a wizard that steps you all the way through that process, so all the 22:22.200 --> 22:27.800 import wizard, all the importers that we support like all T-CAD and EGOL, they'll all be 22:27.800 --> 22:32.320 migrating into that, you'll have a single interface for importing your legacy designs, 22:32.320 --> 22:36.960 chain library tables, we know we've had addressed our library issues for a long time, that's 22:36.960 --> 22:42.320 going to help, some of that background library loading instead of waiting until you need 22:42.320 --> 22:45.600 your libraries, since you start T-CAD it'll start loading, in fact that one's already in 22:45.600 --> 22:51.160 process, a key to project and port or for those of you have to get a project slain around, 22:51.160 --> 22:55.520 IPC support will be extended to the schematic symbol editors, command line interface and 22:55.520 --> 22:58.920 applied in APIs, so you'll be able to hopefully do just about anything you want to be able 22:58.920 --> 23:05.280 to do using the IPC interface, clipboard abstracts, and we need to improve clipboard support 23:05.280 --> 23:11.680 on Linux, it's a little, it's Linux, it is what it is, we've learned to live, we've learned 23:11.680 --> 23:17.680 to love all the little quirks and just deal with it, that's also improved the Linux desktop 23:17.680 --> 23:23.520 environment integration, right now in the schematic editors and the board editors that are 23:23.520 --> 23:28.920 editing is different, so we're going to make that all the same, we're going to do single 23:28.920 --> 23:34.080 file multiple file library abstracts and so right now footprints all by a single footprint 23:34.080 --> 23:39.400 in a file and the schematic libraries are one file with a bunch, so we're going to just 23:39.400 --> 23:46.680 abstract that so you can do both from the other one, so pin gate swapping, we're going 23:46.680 --> 23:51.120 to do both constrained implementation initially and then are on none constrained, so you'll 23:51.120 --> 23:55.360 be able to modify a pin and board it'll go back to the schematic, but what's going to 23:55.360 --> 23:58.520 do, it's going to modify the schematic whether it's valid or not that's up to you, 23:58.520 --> 24:03.800 but then eventually we'll integrate the constrained part of that work, because that information 24:03.800 --> 24:08.440 has to be added to your symbol to know if you can even do that, you know, that's a legal 24:08.440 --> 24:13.000 thing to do. Of course, the fillet tool I talked about, we're going to collapse a bit 24:13.000 --> 24:18.760 now to component into the respective frames that won't be a separate application anymore, 24:18.760 --> 24:25.640 flat schematics, so it's easier to import from other EDH tools that have flat schematics 24:25.640 --> 24:30.520 support stack pins, we're going to just have like you're going to be able to create a list 24:30.520 --> 24:34.440 of pins from a single pin, instead of what we do now putting a bunch of pins on top of each 24:34.440 --> 24:44.280 other. We're going to warn you when you're a diagonal wire creates changes connections, 24:44.280 --> 24:50.400 real time schematic wire junction indicators, schematic different merge tool, automatic component 24:50.400 --> 24:56.400 class generation, automatic neck down, design blocks so that we already have the schematics 24:56.480 --> 25:01.680 nine blocks, I talked about that, barcode support, flexible grid system, route multiple tracks, 25:01.680 --> 25:07.920 we already have the multi track dragging, and different merge foods and get the PCB part 25:07.920 --> 25:15.200 to get time domain schematics for track links routing, route preview for the little, the automatic 25:15.200 --> 25:23.920 routing tool, and then the segment, my segment thing for that, a big table to be able to edit 25:23.920 --> 25:27.440 footprint fields, instead of having to do it one at a time like we have in a single editor, 25:30.000 --> 25:35.920 options to show me the currently route mess with current route, yep, I do this was going to be 25:35.920 --> 25:43.200 tight, we got some optimizations we need to know, we need to do because we know the DR, the 25:43.200 --> 25:51.760 custom DRC rule thing is a performance issue, be able to do arcs with the router, via stitching, 25:52.080 --> 26:01.280 pipe parts, parts in your footprints, the unit, we are going to unify the length calculation code 26:01.280 --> 26:05.280 because there's like three different sets of code and depending on how you look at it, everyone 26:05.280 --> 26:15.920 gives you a different answer, so we know we need to do that for a while, yep, times out, I'm sorry, I didn't 26:15.920 --> 26:23.040 get through everything, before I just wrap this up, I want to say thanks to all the developers and 26:23.040 --> 26:28.800 our sponsors and thank you guys for coming out and thank you for being keycab users, let's say thanks 26:28.800 --> 26:40.960 to Seth for organizing this room because that doesn't happen, it's a lot of work that I don't have to 26:41.040 --> 26:47.120 do, so that's a good thing, hopefully you can all make it to a keycab this year, I'd love to see you 26:47.120 --> 26:53.040 out and come to keycab wherever it is and we'd love to see you there, you have any questions, 26:53.040 --> 27:05.040 I'm sure there are, thank you, four minutes of the question, yes I was 27:05.040 --> 27:12.000 wondering, two seconds I have to look it up, when you create your workflows for the generating 27:12.000 --> 27:16.560 of the outfoods, are you able to store those in like a preset that you might be able to be used? 27:16.560 --> 27:27.200 Yes, okay, so the question was on the job, the output job manager, the list of things that you 27:27.200 --> 27:32.560 create, yes, they'll be portable to keycab projects, if you really want you to create a template, 27:32.640 --> 27:37.920 so you know the keycab template system you could just put that in your template, if you use that exact 27:37.920 --> 27:44.560 same set of outputs for every project and then when you create a new project you just create it from 27:44.560 --> 27:51.040 template, pull that right, yeah, yeah, yeah, over here, yeah, and can you say something about 27:51.040 --> 27:57.440 Waylands native support for the question was something polite, native, yes, I'll try, 27:58.320 --> 28:03.760 the question was the wayllin native support, for those of you who don't use Linux, 28:03.760 --> 28:10.160 you're lucky, no, no, no, the move to Wayllin is really kind of cause a lot of promise for us, 28:10.160 --> 28:17.600 and we are, we've been talking to some people to try to get them resolved, it hasn't been 28:17.600 --> 28:23.760 smooth as I would like it to be, we know the Linux desktop is going towards Wayllin, 28:23.760 --> 28:31.280 but there's so many things that makes keycab the keycab experience miserable when you use Wayllin, 28:31.280 --> 28:36.240 it's just, we just have to tell people you got to use X for now because you're, it's not, 28:36.240 --> 28:42.560 you're not going to have a good experience, it's unfortunate, I hate to do it, but I think, yeah. 28:44.560 --> 28:51.680 Yeah, I'm sorry, yeah, just FYI, I will be outside, feel free to stop and ask me questions, 28:52.640 --> 28:57.760 I never have enough time to get to them, so Michael's going to start setting up, we have time for 28:57.760 --> 29:02.160 one or two more questions if you're asking quick, Michael, you can. 29:05.360 --> 29:07.840 Can the output generate their generate PDF files? 29:09.840 --> 29:16.880 The question was, can the output generate your generate PDF files, yes, anything you can plot with the old 29:16.880 --> 29:23.840 plot dialogue, you can generate, you can generate the output, so yes, you can get generate PDF, 29:25.600 --> 29:31.280 post group, you got the HPGL printer somewhere, you can do that too, I'm a plotter, yes. 29:35.840 --> 29:36.960 Okay, thank you, Wayne.
