Fatal error when placing footprints #15

Open StayWavy1 opened 1 year ago

StayWavy1 commented 1 year ago

Getting this error when I run plugin with sheet nr.

I have a unit cell with some parts that I am trying to replicate in a 4x4 array/matrix.

So I have been experimenting with this problem and found if I change the units to mm from mil (which is what I was working in), no error occurs. Guess with my board being pretty big and in mil it caused an overflow somehow?

Do you have any plans of making this plugin (and replicate layout) like AutoCAD's array feature in the future? It would be nice if you could make a parent cell with multiple parts that controls all other (child) cells and locks & mimics the child cells down to reflect what is in the parent cell (even if parent is edited later). Could also have a way to manually change one child cell if you needed something custom in one for whatever reason.

I work a lot of phased arrays PCBs so this would be really useful for that application.

Thanks to both for reporting this. I am a bit short on time lately, so please have patience.

@maciekish do you work in mils(inches) or in millimeters? If you work in mils, does it help if you switch to millimeters?

@maciekish, @StayWavy1 can anybody share a project or prepare a test project so that I can recreate the issue locally?

maciekish commented 1 month ago

Seems like the issue is mils indeed. If i switch to mm it works.

Thanks for the feedback, if you can share the project I'd appreciate it as I'd like to fix the issue even if there is a workaround
