Extra Graphic Entities with PCB Footprint

dsoko · July 12, 2022, 9:41pm

I’ve downloaded the attached from Ultra Librarian and there are some extra parts to this footprint that I cannot delete. Not sure what it is. It’s not mission critical but I’d like to figure this out. I would appreciate any assistance.

Thanks

What are the extra parts you want deleted?

I’d suggest to first learn to use KiCad’s own footprint editor (which can also create new footprints) before you start using those external sources for footprints.

Every footprint in KiCad must have Value and Reference designator text fields, so if you mean ‘*’ it may be the reference designator. I agree with Paul, at least you could take a look at a standard KiCad footprint to see what is there.
