Without a PCB file that we can use for reproduction, there is not much we can do...
No problem, please see attached.
Thank you! Boost_Max_1A.zip
Well, there is no board in the files you provided.
I apologize, I zipped the wrong file, my bad! Please see attached. Thank you!
I just tested this on KiKit 1.5.1+16.g5a5d509 and I can't reproduce the issue. Are you sure there are no extra steps to reproduce this issue?
Thank you for looking into this!
The steps I highlighted initially are the only ones I took: open a new PCB Editor (standalone), open KiKit plugin, select the PCB file, select a Json file I already saved, and hit panelize.
I believe the issue may be with my computer or with the installation of the KiKIt plugin, because I get the same error on any PCBs I select for panelization, not just the one I sent you. It just happened I noticed the issue on the PCB I attached earlier because I never used the KiKit plugin before.
As I said before, I tried to uninstall KiKit using the KiCad Component Manager and then re-install KiKIt, but that did not help. I also tried to turn off the Firewall (Avast), did not help either.
Any suggestions are very much appreciated.
Thank you!
Some new information: the pluging is actually working but not when importing the JSON I attached in the previous zipped. Here's the JSON attached:
As soon as I import the JSON configuration, I get the error. Could you please try again but this time using the attached JSON? Thank you!
You specified selecting the board via footprint annotation in the section source
but you didn't provide the annotation reference. Therefore, the error is expected, it should just have more clear wording. The wording was fixed in 32187ad. If you change source to auto
, everything works.
This is wonderful, thank you so much for your help! Works like a charm!
