@Seve I have few questions about a board but first are we using the metric fp as default ?

  return (v: any) => {
          if (Object.keys(target).length === 0) {
            if (`${prop}${v}` in FOOTPRINT_FN) {
              target[`${prop}${v}`] = true
              target.fn = `${prop}${v}`
            } else {
              target[prop] = true
              target.fn = prop
              if (prop === "res" || prop === "cap") {
                if (v) {
                  target.imperial = v // res0402, cap0603 etc.
                }
              } else {
                target.num_pins = Number.isNaN(Number.parseFloat(v))
                  ? undefined
                  : Number.parseFloat(v)
              }
            }

  return (v: any) => {
          if (Object.keys(target).length === 0) {
            if (`${prop}${v}` in FOOTPRINT_FN) {
              target[`${prop}${v}`] = true
              target.fn = `${prop}${v}`
            } else {
              target[prop] = true
              target.fn = prop
              if (prop === "res" || prop === "cap") {
                if (v) {
                  target.imperial = v // res0402, cap0603 etc.
                }
              } else {
                target.num_pins = Number.isNaN(Number.parseFloat(v))
                  ? undefined
                  : Number.parseFloat(v)
              }
            }

as you see here we are making everything to use imperial , and if we are using metric as a default I can fix it but what should we do when we want to pick imperial

in this board we have this hole which is connected to the vcc net on the schematic side it only shows the net , how can we use a hole and connect it to a net to route + it has no sch representation

Seve•3mo ago

any of the 0402, 0603, 0805 etc. should refer to imperial by default where do you see that the hole is connected to a net? holes aren't generally conductive, so they can't be connected to a net. But if a hole is connected, it may be a plated hole

AbseOP•3mo ago

yeah I mean a plated hole mb , the issue we don't have such a component right ? I can do this but it's a hack

   <testpoint
      name="VCC_P2"
      footprint="pinrow1_od1.016_id0.508_nosquareplating"
      cadModel={null}
      pcbY={4.7}
      symbolName="vcc"
      schRotation={90}
    />

      name="VCC_P2"
      footprint="pinrow1_od1.016_id0.508_nosquareplating"
      cadModel={null}
      pcbY={4.7}
      symbolName="vcc"
      schRotation={90}
    />

Seve•3mo ago

are you referring to these holes?

Seve•3mo ago

i would ignore those in the short term because they're supposed to be added as part of autorouting

AbseOP•3mo ago

even this ?

Seve•3mo ago

yea, they're big because they carry power

AbseOP•3mo ago

so ignore for now ?

Seve•3mo ago

yep, blame the autorouter 😁

AbseOP•3mo ago

how about metric , how should we do it like 0402_metric or smth?

Seve•3mo ago

yea 0402_metric should work
