KiCad v6 Panelization plugin

• I am using this personally, for simple rectangular panels, not all functions are tested;
• Should be used only for rectangular boards;
• Edge layer should consist only of Rectangles and Lines;
• All outline elements must have the same linewidth property;

Version history

v0.9 (2021-12-16)

• Initial commit to github;
• Disabled some controls in the GUI (fiducials and holes are not used by my, not tested);
• Rectangle support as an outline shape (introduced in v6);
• Added check for unresolved text variables (introduced in v6);
• Disregard outline linewidths in calculations (probably broken in zip file from initial source, listed below)
