# panelize-plugin | ||
This is a proof of concept automatic panelization plugin for KiCad. | ||
# 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; | ||
|
||
__It can currently be used, however it does not generate any holes in the tabs!__ | ||
# 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) | ||
|
