For those who haven’t followed the situation: teardrops are being implemented natively in KiCad v6.99, to be published in v7. At the moment it seems to follow this plugin’s implementation: it uses zones and even the shapes look similar.

But it is not yet in 6.99, is it?

It is, but it’s behind an advanced config flag because it’s not ready yet to be really tested. You can add AllowTeardrops=1 to file kicad_advanced in your KiCad configuration directory.

It’s in the Tools menu.

Ok. Good to know if I feel like torturing some new feature :slight_smile:
