Understanding New Jobset Concepts

Playing around with the new jobset feature and on the latest nightly, wanting to make sure I don’t submit a bug report for something I am misunderstanding or missing!

Currently I am running into various paper cuts with the feature (or - more likely - with my understanding of it :slight_smile:)

For some reason, I can’t figure out how to get certain items where I want them to go! For example, gerbers are always being dumped into the project folder, regardless of how I set the path, or if I leave the path blank.

Some other items (like dxf export, and position files) do end up in the archive as expected.

I’m running today’s nightly kicad-nightly-9.0.0.rc1.36.ge04f873765-x86_64.exe

There have been some fixes to jobsets which were committed after we released rc1, and there are a few bugs reported already along the lines of the things you’re seeing. rc2 should see an improvement in these issues.
