I haven’t used the latest v6 as much as I would like, only recently just started a new project and although I am still adjusting to some changes, I like it! Thanks to the developers for all their efforts.
However, I think am facing a bug with filled zones.
I originally started routing this board with v6.0.2 but the possible bug is still there on the v6.0.4
Change “File > Board setup > Design rules > Constraints” – “Zone fill strategy” from Smoothed polygons to Mimic legacy and see if the issue persists.
Check if the issue propagates to GERBERs.
Seem that the capsense slides with their angled edges do mess things up.
I’d recommend to upload the project to Gitlab so it can be identified and solved.
Hi @fred4u, I’ll give them a try today to see if any of those suggestions works as a workaround.
In the meantime, it seems that a bug was found in the capacitive sensor footprint generator and it has been corrected (thanks KiCad team! awesome as always!) As soon as a build with the bugfix gets built, I’ll test it.
EDIT: Tested the build from yesterday and I can confirm that the fix works as expected !! Thanks a lot!
