  • Fixed exception when autorouting where a net has no pins.
  • Radial component can approach exactly identical distance to all 4 board edges.
Full Version Only:
  • Choose up to 4 nets to show by coloring strips.
Net coloring is the first step towards the colored wires feature requested by "Stripman" on this forum. i'm interested to hear if you find colored strips to be useful or not. At present you can't print the colored strips.

(Now 2.35.2.0 - bug fixed in Board->Outlines and Board->Components screens)

To download, start VeeCAD full version and click Help -> Check for Updates. Or for Free Version go to http://veecad.com/free.html .

Roger,
Have just tried Version 2.35.0.0 and its coloured nets.  It definitely seems worth continuing with this development. I do not know if unlimited colours would be either feasible or useful but, at first sight, perhaps 8 choices of net colours would be a starting point. I will continue to use the feature and will let you know if I reveal any other points.

Big thumbs up to the coloured nets! I find component placement easier when I see where my power buses are. I ran out of colours, though, having two grounds and three voltages... Smiley

Good work, yet again!

Thank you Brian and Juha

I was worried that the layout would look like a rainbow with so many colours.

Also, when I went Tools -> Settings and look at the colour settings, I saw a fearsome number of colours to configure, and I found it difficult to find distinctive colours.

Still, I can add a couple more colours, because no-one has to use them.
