Can you change all wire widths on a schematic?

At full screen on my 24 inch monitor the wires on the schematic are quite small…
0 inches

Is there anyway to change the line/wire widths of all lines/wires on a schematic… all at once?

Thanks for any help.

You could change the line width in the netclass settings.

Or use a text editor. If you set one wire to the width you want and look at it in the file, it should be reasonably self-explainitory.

JeffYoung, look at the schematic file? Thanks

The relevant sections will look something like:

  (wire (pts (xy 137.16 102.87) (xy 137.16 105.41))
    (stroke (width 0) (type default))
    (uuid 7db41bda-359c-420f-bdf5-221e6a8efd3d)
  )

The (width 0) is the part you’d want to do a find/replace on in your favourite text editor. (Units are mils.)

Needless to say, make sure you back up the file first. :wink:

Here is my latest schematic. I used a text editor to change every stroke 0 to stroke 15. Yes I made a backup copy first.

Looks great!

Sorry I occasionally find the need for amusement…

Thanks everybody. U2 BobZ :slight_smile:

Utter nonsense… It must be an aerial view of snow on the trees in the Pacific North West in mid winter… Kicad couldn’t possibly be responsible for that abomination! :thinking:

I am not sure but if you want to change the width of the wire in kicad schematic you may use this option: Edit → Edit text & graphics properties->


I hope that this will help you :slight_smile:
