PCB based Rogowski coil

@Jun_

Can you nudge me in the right direction, i would like to give it a try to see if it works.

That up there is the ‘nudge’

If you open a .kicad_pcb file in a text editor you can read what is in there, as it’s human readable.
All python does is create some string elements that KiCAD understands really - creating the positions for the many vias that you need and the pieces of copper tracks with their various positions (x,y).

This should give you an idea what’s involved..

Creating round (arc) copper planes [SOLVED]

Hi, for my current project I need several copper planes in arc form. [image] I know KiCad is not offering the possibility to make circles or arcs with the copper layer. The workaround for me would be to manually make a copper zone and drag the edges until the desired shape is nearly reached. But this would be a very time consuming and not a very satisfying solution. Does anybody has a better approach for this?
