Oh absolutely. It's just a matter of whether the capabilities, the open

uh, quirks of the user interface. I'm not likely to use 53 layers and
a 40 acre board, but I would like the ratsnesting to work in a sane
fashion and I'd like auto DRC to let me actually draw traces to pads in
the same net...

Please be specific about which version and what bugs, as we're doing a lot of work on it these days and bugs are getting fixed all the time. The problems you see may already be fixed in the CVS version, or perhaps we need to work on documenting how some of our features work.

One bug/annoyance I can think of is when moving a footprint, with rats-nest enabled, the rats-nest lines don't move smoothly with the footprint. After you drop the part in the new location, you have to zoom in or out to clean up the rats-nest.


I'm on PCB version 20060822 (the latest in fink) on OS X 10.4.8 on Intel.
