HierPlace: Hierarchical component placement plugin
« on: June 02, 2018, 01:38:27 am »
I just saw this announced on the kicad.info forums... Sweet!

https://github.com/xesscorp/HierPlace

To install it on OS X.  Unfortunately, the way KiCAD is currently bundled it needs to be reinstalled whenever KiCAD is upgraded.

Code: [Select]
git clone git@github.com:xesscorp/HierPlace.git
cd HierPlace
sudo cp HierPlace.py /Applications/Kicad/kicad.app/Contents/SharedSupport/scripting/plugins
sudo chown $LOGNAME:admin /Applications/Kicad/kicad.app/Contents/SharedSupport/scripting/plugins/HierPlace.py
sudo chmod 755 /Applications/Kicad/kicad.app/Contents/SharedSupport/scripting/plugins/HierPlace.py

Then hit Tools => External Plugins... => Refresh Plugins, or restart KiCAD.
