how to config dimensions pad hole global ?
i use library from kicad but dimensions is small size for diy pcb
have config or solutions for fix ?

Use the small arrow down next to āVia: use netclass sizesā which will open the menu below and click Edit Predefined Sizes:
That will take you to settings of tracks and vias. You also have to set netclasses (Pre-defined sizes and Net Classes in the settings.
I simply donāt understand the question.
You have PCB designed and you want to change in one move (global) all holes diameters at PCB?
I think hole diameters (you are asking about holes, arenāt you?) have nothing to do with DIY or not. Rather pad diameteres could have something to do with it, but not holes, I think.
this not via
i have problems about hole on foot print
this small print to laser printer
i change
this ok, but have config global ?
There is no global configuration for pad hole size. Pads are part of footprints, which each have their own sizes.
If you want all pads to have the same drill hole, you need to choose footprints carefully, or make your own footprints / customize existing footprints to change the drill size.
As mentionedā¦re Footprintās understand them.
In particular, know itās best to Not modify existing Footprints before Saving a Copy to your preferred folder.
Thus, modify those Saved Copies, only.
Footprints vary enough that in a āBulk-Changeā manner, without knowing specificās of each Footprintās Pads/Holes/Masks/Silk/etc, you may get varied results.
That saidā¦
You can use WildCardās to search and change the values, thus can in a Bulk way, make the changes in a Text-Editor (or Coding).
Each Footprint will have similar Syntax in the Footprint file.
In the Example below, I show a Stock-Kicad Footprint File, copied to my Folder and Opened in a Text-Editor:
ā¢ Shows the āsizeā and ādrillā
Iāll just throw Values at it show the Result in PCB (need to Close PCB, save the Footprint-File and Re-Open the PCB and Update from (your saved Footprint library)ā¦ (Sometimes Iāve found I needed to Fully Quit, sometimes only needed to quit the PCBā¦)
Results show Padās and Holes changed ADDED: showing changing All the Placed Footprints and, given that I changed the File, Newly Placed Footprints will reflect the Change, too.
