Changing arc line width results in “Invalid Arc with radius…”

On some arcs I cannot change the line width. On others I can. KiCAD reports:

Invalid Arc with radius 4389020551893372370944.000000 and angle 1800.000000

See here:


Why is that? Example attached.

Version: 6.0.2+dfsg-1~bpo11+1, release build

arc_linewidth.kicad_pcb (5.4 KB)
arc_linewidth.kicad_pro (5.1 KB)
arc_linewidth.kicad_sch (105 Bytes)

It’s important to know how the arcs were created in the first place.

This is a bug affecting all changes (not only linewidth) of 180°-arcs. It’s already fixed according to gitlab-entry. The next version 6.0.3 should be corrected.
If you can’t wait you can try to install a 6.0.x - testing version.

I created a dxf in librecad and imported the drawing into the Edge.Cuts layer. Here’s the dxf:

The error in the bug report looks very suspiciously like the error I’m getting. Glad to see it’s fixed in 6.0.3.
