Title: How do i change track width on KiCad ???
Post by: Refrigerator on December 27, 2014, 02:36:28 pm
I've tried looking on the web but there's no such way to set a "custom" track width, just some NetClass and auto width  ??? crap.
Am i missing something here?
Ps: i'm  new to KiCad.

Set the track widths in Design Rules -> Global Design Rules, use "W" to change between them.

If you switch to the OpenGL rendering engine, you can press W and type a new width without having listed them first in the design rules.
