Connector terminal format in the svg file
Thanks! Thats much easier than what I was doing (editing the position by typing in the xml editor field). The original svg of this is pretty good looking and worked fine but has some structural...

I've opened up a lot of parts, and there is no standardisation with those contacts. They can be square, rect, whatever. I posted a few bugs on Ink, and learnt a few things. If you are interested they...
View ArticleWhere is the generic header part?
I'm looking for the generic header part where you take a 40-pin header and break off as much as you happen to need. I'm sure it's there because I've seen it in other diagrams like this one:...
View ArticleWhere is the generic header part?
You pick the header in Core parts, and you go to the Inspector panel below the parts bins and select the number of pins, male/female, etc.

Ohh you wanted that actual part. It's not a very good icon, but if you get stuck just type it in the search box in the parts bin section - the magnifying glass button - and it should turn up.
View ArticleHow do you flip perfboard to plan where the solder connections go?
I'm planning a circuit to go into perfboard. How do I access the other side of the board to plan the rows of pins that will be bridged with solder? My searches suggest it's possible but give no...
View ArticleResistor value selection is really limited
For some reason the selection of resistor values is quite limited. I have, for example, 4.3K resistors in my possession but Fritzing denies their existence? Does Fritzing consider different values of...
View ArticleTranslucent parts would make overlap easier to deal with
A lot of times components overlap. One solution would be to make them less three dimensional but another might be to make them translucent (partially transparent) so you can see through them to the...

You got me there. The pref board only appears on the breadboard view, and I don't think you can double load a board there - there would be a button on the bottom red bar, like in PCB view, to look at...

EDITIn Inspector/resistance, just type in the value you want and press return.
View ArticleHow do you flip perfboard to plan where the solder connections go?
I can't make any sense of PCB view. PCB view bares no resemblance to the arrangement of parts I have on the perf board. Fritzing doesn't really seem to be design with perf board in mind. How do you...

Thanks. I was pretty sure I'd tried hitting return but I guess not since it works fine. Incidentally though, setting the pin spacing to anything other than default seems to have no effect. I was...

Go to View/Set Grid Size and enter 0.100". Each light grey grid intersection is where a prefboard hole is. Click on grey PCB and in Inspector change the size to what you want.Put the parts in the same...

In BB view those things don't change. You can make them longer with the bendable legs but not shorter. In PCB view click on the resistor and in Inspector go to pin spacing, and from the drop down menu...

How do you flip perfboard to plan where the solder connections go?
Why aren't the parts in the same place on the PCB automatically? They're positioned randomly. It looks like pin spacing affects the PCB view but not the breadboard/perf board view....

Yeah I know. That pretty much happens in all the other views.The parts in BB view are dimensionally accurate engineering drawings where as the BB view are representative, so accurate positions might...

Got to the bottom of Core parts, category PCB View, and drag a VIA onto the PCB.
