External Plugins

Hi,

I have installed the Clearance class matrix plugin in PCM. But it is not appearing in the PCB editor or in the Plugin section in Preference window. I am new to KiCad. I would appreciate some help.

It is not clear to me which OS you are using or which version of KiCad you have. However, I was experiencing the same issue on KiCad 9.0.6 (flatpak) running on Linux Mint 22.2. At some point my OS notified me of a KiCad update which I applied. After the update the issue was resolved. My version of KiCad remained at 9.0.6.

I suspect there was an update to one of the libraries but I have not taken the time to investigate further.

For reference, here is the version information for my currently installed version of KiCad:

Plugins are created and maintained outside the Kicad program.

You may find communicating with the author/maintainer will give a quicker, better response than this forum.
