NC pins not bundled despite -b parameter #33

Closed gustep12 closed 6 years ago

gustep12 commented 6 years ago

I am defining a new footprint for a molex connector where several pins are either GND or NC.

The multiple GND pins are properly bundled with the -b option.

The multiple NC pins remain unbundled in the resulting KiCad component.

Ok, I just read that's a feature in the newest revision, not a bug.

Yes, bundling NC pins was leading to ERC errors in EESchema.
