![]() ![]() Unfortunately, I believe they may have been corrupted. I recently suffered a HD crash, but I managed to recover some DIYcreator files. Not me writing a wiki with all known issues across all known platforms that nobody will read anyways That's the natural flow how issues are reported, documented and tracked. As far as paste improvement, I'm open to ideas, it sounds like a good thing to improve. In this particular example, issues you reported are not known, so filing them would be of great help, together with app log for "failed to draw." bug, there's probably an explanation there. Sorry if it sounds like ranting, but if it's going to be "perfect", people will have to chime in. People find it easier to post their wishes on forums where it's hard for me to remember everything, hard to track down posts because of the sheer size and finally hard for you guys to realize when something is done (as opposed to getting an email from google when an issue is resolved). And you can always go there to see the list of open issues, but nobody does. That's why I setup a page for bug reporting and feature requests (, links also available from the app, Help menu), but only 2 or 3 people go there and report stuff. If I followed the book, progress would be super slow. I'm a software professional and know that you need as much time for testing as you need for development and as much for documentation. I just cannot afford time to do extensive testing and documentation. ![]() So I gave up.īare in mind that I'm one guy making this app in my free time and for free, not a company that does it for profit. And I don't want to spend time writing something for 5% of the users or less if I can spend it improving the app for 100% of the users. ![]() I did start documenting everything in the beginning, but people just don't want to read manuals and they would still ask the same questions I covered in the doc. I mean, it's mostly great software, and I'm grateful for it, but a more comprehensive user manual would be nice, or at least a heads-up if there are some features that just don't work in some platforms. Nothing ever happens, and for my trouble, I get this annoying reminder in the status bar: "Failed to draw components: BOM1, BOM2.etc." txt or csv file with the BOM? I have tried "Create BOM" from the file menu and selecting "BOM" from the component menu. Being able to determine *where* I paste something would be an improvement.Īlso: what is the BOM function supposed to do? Is it supposed to list the component values for you in DIYLC, or is it supposed to create a separate. Whenever I paste a component, it is pretty much superimposed on the selected component, and then I have to ctrl+drag to "unstick" it from everything connected to that original component. The "paste" function could use more user control. I don't know why this isn't consistent, but it isn't consistent. Sometimes you can drag or edit the selection, and sometimes you can't. The "select all" and "select all components of this type" functions are spotty. ![]()
