Just a note to let you know V0.202 of RenumKicadPCB is released.
You can download here
https://documenteddesigns.com/2017/03/24/renumkicadpcb-v0-202/
RenumKicadPCB is an open source utility which renumbers the reference
designations on a PCB and back-annotates the schematic. Rather than manually
renumbering the reference designations and trying to make your schematic
line up (which can take hours) it runs through a sizeable design and updates
PCB and schematic reference designations according to specified rules. It
usually takes less than a second to run. It supports schematic hierarchies
as well as "cloned sheets" (one sheet used several times in a design).
It is a freestanding application written in c. It does not require any other
software such as Python or DLLs. It has been run on Windows, Linux, and
Apple.
In V0.202 I've changed the default sort from Sort on Reference Designation
to Sort on Modules and made an internal change to the way sorts are done
from a "jog" to a simple grid sort. These changes make it easier for people
to get the renumbering outcome.
Feedback is welcomed.
