Testing out an interactive assembly guide on kitspace #34

Closed kasbah closed 4 years ago

kasbah commented 4 years ago

Hey, we are testing out the interactive assembly guide for Eagle projects on https://github.com/kitspace/kitspace/pull/300 (by converting to KiCad and using the Interactive HTML BOM plugin for that)

Here's what it will look like:

This look good to you? Do you see any issues?

joeycastillo commented 4 years ago

It looks great! One thing is that there are some board features (fiducials, logos) that don't have a part associated with them, but still appear in the list. If there's a way for me to tag them to be excluded, I'd love to do that to make it clearer to folks.

Great, we are just trying to improve the silkscreen text placement before we put this up on the main site.

Regarding excluding components, I am not sure. In KiCad you can mark components as "virtual" to exclude them manufacturing outputs. Is there an equivalent for Eagle?
