Hi @novaktamas
I see you are using a recent release of kicad StepUp ‘kicad-StepUp-tools.FCMacro’
then your config file is not anymore ksu-config.cfg but it is ksu-config.ini that you can find in
NB the new config file is in home user dir Linux and OSX: ~/ which is $HOME Windows: %HOMEPATH% Click kicad-StepUp-tools.FCMacro Config Button to display the ksu-config.ini file and Help button for a quick Help In case of any problem, just delete ksu-config.ini file and restart the kicad StepUp tools… a new ini file will be generated edit your 3D prefix and re-run the tools
kicad StepUp is working fine with FC 0.15, 016 and latest 0.17
Please consider to download latest release:
just recently updated for new features…
Latest Enhancements:
STEP multi-part allowed (creating compound)
EdgeCuts allowed for footprint that will generate Cuts in Board
Pcb Edge as footprint allowed
edge tolerance on vertex coincidence for easier designing
KiCad: C:\Program Files\KiCad-7409\bin Kicad work: D:\MUNKA\Tekinvest\RGB-keyb\RGB-kbd-128\KiCad packages3d: D:\MUNKA\KiCAD\packages3d
so just use:
C:\Program Files\KiCad-Stepup\demo\kicad-StepUp-tools.FCMacro
and adjust your prefix in ksu-config.ini (that you will find in Windows %HOMEPATH%
) to:
[prefix3D] prefix3d_1 = D:\MUNKA\KiCAD\packages3d\ prefix3d_2 =
your %HOMEPATH% should be something like:
C:\Users\your_username
Thank you for using my StepUp tools since its first release
Please feel free to ask any further advice you may require
Maurice
PS Don’t use scripts from old-scripts DIR
Stepup: C:\Program Files\KiCad-Stepup\demo\old-script
