Continuing the discussion from Post-V8 New Features and Development News:
First off - WOW 9.0 is an absolute MONSTER release! I am so excited! I am especially excited for the jobsets feature, since I am terribly forgetful and inconsistent in this area currently.
I was wondering if there are plans to bring text variables to the jobset, or if I should rethink my workflow to fit!
I usually like to have my board part number in my fabrication package name, so for example:
If the project is “PCB0001” I create a zip file called “PCB0001_FabPkg”.
I would think that this would still allow portability of the jobset file between projects, since the text variables are pretty consistent?
In short - quick access to a few project level variables like the project name would be handy as heck, in my humble opinion!
Very excited to see how others approach releasing designs with this fantastic new feature!!
