Good job on the new Kicad v6 release! I see lots of great new features!
I´m having some issues with the Walk around function of the interactive router, where the track seems to get stuck randomly.
I´ve recorded a quick video showing the issue
The problem doesnt show up when using Shove or Highlight collission mode.
This is a sort of known issue ( I think).
Apparently there is quite a lot of delicate programming in the algorithms for the interactive router, and small bugs like this (dis) appear and move all the time.
A quick solution / workaround is to regularly exercise your mouse finger to trigger the button and finalize some track segments, so the interacive router has less track segments to worry about.
Also:
Why are you using “Walk around” mode? The “Shove” is more powerful and usually makes it easier to route your PCB.
Hi, would you be able to share (or send me in PM) the PCB that demonstrates the issue?
Tom
