Hi @MitjaNemec,

I would be happy if your plugin would show the icon for your plugin by default.

This can be easily implemented. Just add the following:

init.py#L23-L26

        def defaults(self):
            self.name = "ReplicateLayout"
            self.category = "Replicate Layout"
            self.description = "Replicates layout from one sheet to other sheets in multiple sheet schematics"
            self.show_toolbar_button = True

Hi, thanks for the suggestion. As I personally dislike plugins to modify GUI I am against this.

Could you elaborate a bit more what is the reason behind this feature request?

  1. Do you work in education/corporate setting and you manage more KiCad installations and you'd want the plugin to be visible on all installations. Therefore this would reduce the required clicking?
  2. Does the PCM update setting reset the visibility of the icon?
