Version 1.4.1

This release:

• Resolves issue #25 :

  • Corrected by correctly matching the layer name

Version 1.4.0

This release:

• Has been tested on KiCad 9.0.0

• Adds info help dialogs for the vertical and horizontal panel gaps - resolves #23

Version 1.3.2

This release:

• Contains the unreleased improvements added at 1.3.1:
  • Makes the drawing and module edge checks consistent
  • Adds an option to build the zone fills before panelizing
  • Resolves issue #14 - SparkPNT and silkscreen color checks
  • Resolves issue #15 - panel fiducial positions
• Refills the zones automatically, before and after panelizing

Version 1.3.1

This release:

• Makes the drawing and module edge checks consistent

Version 1.3.0

This release:

Version 1.1.1

This release:

• Enhances the panelizer so it will work with non-standard (modified) layer names

Version 1.1.0

This release:

• Adds separate pages for the General and V-Score settings
• The v-score layer was hard-coded to User.Comments. It can now be changed using the V-Score page
• A save-file message box allows you save the PCB before running the panelizer (resolves #2)
• Info buttons added for the move-fiducials and expose-edge settings (resolves MIA issue #1)
• Changes the panel fiducials: the bottom-left fiducial is 1.5mm; top-left and top-right are now 1.0mm
• Silk text is automatically added to any empty edges - allowing JLCPCB to pick up the correct panel size for the quote
