Netlist tool not found

Schematic
1

I have 6.0.2. I am in eeschema, and my schema is ready. Now what? where is the netlist tool?

Netlist still exists under File - Export - Netlist
KiCad does not need a netlst since V5
On V6, Just open the PCB tool (You can use the green Open PCB editor icon inside the Schematic tool)
Select the Update PCB icon

Or just select Tools > Update PCB from the schematic editor, or hit F8, and it will create an instance of the PCB editor and do the import.

The word update makes it sound like it’s not for the first run, but it works all the same.

Thank you both. I get the feeling that the workflow is now more streamlined (I used to use V4). I should point out, though, that the Netlist button is still present in the Help document.

Well you know the saying: It’s hard to teach an old doc new tricks. :guide_dog: :frowning_face:
