ReplaceSchlib not changing foot print #2

Open TwoToneEddy opened 2 years ago

TwoToneEddy commented 2 years ago

Hi, I've had a go at using this extension and on the surface it appears to work on the schematic, the component value and associated footprint do change. However when I produce the PCB those components retain the original footprint, not the new one. And idea what i'm doing wrong? Thanks Lee

Make a video of how you do it. Then we will try to determine your error, or the macro is buggy.

Here is a video, i've got 3 resistors, R1, R2 and R3. These are all 0603 packages. I also have R10 which is an 0402. In the video I show me using the script to replace R1-R3 with R10. I would then expect to see 4 x 0402 packages in the PCB but instead I see 3 x 0603 and 1 x 0402. I am generating a new PCB for this. Thanks Lee

Im using the linux application, version V6.4.25. Can I use these scripts on the web version?

duritskiy commented 2 years ago

I installed the script in web version (Chrome on Windows 7), and I was able to apply it.

Thanks for trying this, I wasn't sure it was possible to install it into the web version, is it documented anywhere how to do this? If so I'll give that a go now. Thanks again lee

other steps are the same

I'm having the same problems: in the schematics everything works fine, but footprint does not change on the PCB. Hence if I swap 0805 to 0603, the size of the part remains the same on the PCB. @TwoToneEddy: did it work out for you?

on a freshly installed easyeda v6.5.23 everything works as it should. Check out the tutorials to see if you're doing everything right. Or make a video showing the sequence of your actions. Better yet, attach part of your SCH + PCB circuit so that I can show you with your example that the script works
