KiCad Project Status - KiCon 2023

[@carlosdiaz4535]

It would be good to have small videos showing the new features (or the most impressive ones). Kudos to KiCAD team!

[@supul32]

Thank you to everyone who is involved!

Kicad Developpers said that Custom Design Rule GUI like in Altium it will be on Kicad V8, but in this presention "There is no item Custom Design Rule GUI like in Altium". Why?

[@James-on1vy]

Great work, as always! The hobbiest community couldn't do it without you!

[@Muny]

Great talk, thanks for sharing!

[@RasmusSE]

Seems that the slides are way ahead of Wayne... out of sync

[@ЕвгенийРевякин-с9м]

It really bothered me, so I stitched together an FFmpeg script that fixes that issue. I don't think I can upload the fixed video, but I can share my script: ffmpeg -i "KiCad Project Status - KiCon 2023.mp4" -ss 00:00:40 -t 00:30:08 -filter:v "crop=320:180:960:540" -c:a copy speaker.mp4 ffmpeg -i "KiCad Project Status - KiCon 2023.mp4" -i speaker.mp4 -filter_complex "[1:v]scale=320:180[ovrl],[0:0][ovrl]overlay=:x=960:y=540[out]" -t 00:30:08 -map [out] -map 1:1 part_with_slides_fixed.mp4

They wanted Wayne to finish his presentation sooner. haha

[@Graham_Wideman]

It's pretty easy to open this video in two browser tabs. Run one for the audio, and view the other for the slides with audio turned down. You can start both around the same time, and just delay the slides as needed, like by using the left arrow.

Ah, it's supposed to be pronounced "Kee-cad". I always say it "Kiy-cad".

[@TegFilatov]

Would have been much better with pictures illustrating functions. Anyway thanks to the team. Waiting impatiently version 8 :)

[@dunk_law]

Is there any good quality documentation that includes examples on using the Spice simulation?

[@kicadeda]

Yes, our documentation is at docs.kicad.org/7.0/en/eeschema/eeschema.html#simulator Examples of using Spice are included in the demos folder with KiCad

[@kkdkkm7801]

How to install kicad V8.0?
