Rotated Choc Spacing Not Correct #11

Open csteamengine opened 1 month ago

csteamengine commented 1 month ago

Hello! I have been attempting to use this generator to produce a plate for my split keyboard but the thumb keys are not coming out properly.

After running my keyboard through here with choc spacing (18mm x 17mm), the two thumb keys are only 17.75mm apart, and the further right key is 0.433mm off from the bottom of the switch.

I have attached pictures of the dimensions that come out wrong and what the keyboard is intended to look right.

Please let me know if I'm doing something wrong on my end too, that would be very helpful.

Thanks!

It's especially noticeable in KiCad with the Switch Key outlines.

Another update, I have adjusted the legends in KLE and it has resolved my issue in the Kicad-KBPlacer plugin, but the plate generator is still not spacing the cutouts correctly.

The switches are in the correct location in KiCad but the right thumb cutout is about .5mm off in both it's relative axes.
