Resistors have no default footprint, because there are just too many to choose from.
Exactly. But OP says that in V5 symbols (including Resistor) had associated footprints.
Thanks mf_ibfeew,
To debug this on your system:
- Are you able to open the footprint libraries in the footprint editor?
no, no footprint is visualized
- What happens if you delete the library from the footprint library table and subsequently add the library? (using the Preferences–>Manage footprint libraries… dialog).
- What happens if you (just for testing) create a new personal library, create some test-footprint and associate your symbols with these footprints? Does that work?
Yes … it Work !!!
**- you could also use my attached gitlab-bugreport library, which includes some footprints to play with: **
0IBF 00 library bugreport.zip (46.5 KB). Download, unzip, and add the folder as new “global library” to your Footprint library table.
This also work !
And I just see that you have migrated from old v5 to v7. There was a FP library change - maybe you have to set the library-type differently in the Manage footprint libraries… dialog.
It seems to me i have assigned the right path but I’ll try to reassign path library …
Thanks paulvdh,
I have only /usr/share/kicad/footprints/ directory, and table path in the footprint editor preferences point to it.
