How do you edit several pads at once in footprint editor?

how do you edit several pads at once in footprint editor?
Is this even possible?

For things like this people sometimes use scripts since the files are text. You might check that out if you don’t get other options.

Edit only one pad.
Opengl:
-Right click on the modified pad -> Pads->Copy pad settings
-Right click on a NON-modified pad you want to modify ->Pads -> Apply (or Push for several) pad settings

Only available in nightly builds.

Nightly build warning:
These are development builds compiled every night from the current master branch. There is no guarantee that files produced by such builds can be opened by any older version. (including older nightly versions)
These builds can have severe bugs. There is no documentation available for them.

Ooops!

Then in version 4.0.x
Legacy canvas:
-Right click on the modified pad -> Pads->Export pad settings
-Right click on a NON-modified pad you want to modify -> New pad settings (or Global pad settings for multiple pads)

I asked similar question here …

Script to change from round TH to oval TH pads

I usually need to design PCB for DIY PCB and I needed the TH pads to be large & oval pads instead of small rounded holes in the the picture… I usually do it manually, but for lot of pins , is there a script that I can do this ?? Or some guide on how to get started … [image]PCB pad types by stanley_seow, on Flickr

The answer is NOT in footprint editor but must faster in a text editor …
