Is there an automated way of generating the symbol/footprint images? #58

Hi,

I am new to this library and still exploring the capabilities, however I intend keeping the symbol/footprint library in sync with the images in PNG format.

Is there an easy/automated way for generating the image of the symbols/footprints after they are added to the library?

I typical scenario would be adding bunch of new components to the library and running a script/tool to generate the images for the new components in "images" folder.

Thank you in advance

See my AltiumSharp project, this is what I use to generate the images in the library automatically.
