I decided to do my first attempt at making a footprint. I thought I would watch a tutorial video. All of the videos I could find open the module editor in pcbnew. I installed the latest stable version and there is a footprint editor in the main start up window. Is there a video for this footprint editor? One video kind of annoyed me slightly when they said the official name is the “:module editor” while I am staring at the official opening window where it says “footprint editor”.
The Module editor and Footprint editor they are the same. In the meantime the naming convention has changed from module to footprint which is better and widely understandable in EDA world. The possibility to start Footprint editor outside Pcbnew is the another feature coming from KIWAY/KIFACE (modular application scheme for KiCad).
So, nothing has changes to start shooting new video tutorials immediately.
Thanks. I like the changes.
