Doesn't do anything: NotImplementedError: Wrong number or type of arguments for overloaded function 'new_VECTOR2I'.

[readmodifywrite]

Pressing the OK button results in nothing. No messages, no vias, nothing.

If I open the Python console and then hit OK, I'll get some errors in another window:

Thanks, I'll check it out. Il giorno mer 31 mag 2023 alle ore 20:35 Jeremy Billheimer < ***@***.***> ha scritto:

Ive got a similar issue:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users/splitice/Documents/KiCad/6.0/scripting\plugins\viastitching\viastitching_dialog.py", line 456, in onProcessAction
    self.FillupArea()

    return _pcbnew.ZONE_HitTestFilledArea(self, aLayer, aRefPos, aAccuracy)

Okay several things.

1. It appears KiCad 6.0 does not have a vector2I input to HitTestFilledArea (I could only find the documentation online, which I assume is for 7.0, and the docs say it should work, but the code's error warnings speak for themselves). Forcing it to a wxPoint gets past that (are there ways to check for what instance of Kicad you're running? e.g. version<7.0 -> use wxPoint) (if hasattr(pcbnew, 'VECTOR2I'): -> ~dialog.py:368)
2. Your code checks for intersections with ZONES and FP_ZONES, whereas for my use case that's exactly what I want to use it for (e.g. filling a copper zone). Commenting that out fixed it, but I don't know why you were checking for intersections there in the first place. (def CheckOverlap(self, via): ->~dialog.py:300).
3. There's a bug (?) in randomize, where your divisions might not be integers (which are required for wxPoint instantiation). Casting after the calc fixes that. (if self.randomize: -> ~dialog.py:360)
4. Nice work and thank you for writing this in the first place.

Note: The line numbers are off by... I don't know. Some non-zero amount. I had to add a bunch of wx.MessageBoxes to see what was going on (How do they not have a debugger running this stuff? And here I was thinking embedded dev environments were hostile...)

Seeing the same issue on kicad 7.0.2 when I use "randomize". If I deselect randomize, the error goes away but no vias are placed.

Just reiterating what @mpieper figured out:

replace 259 with: the_distance = norm(pcbnew.VECTOR2I(p2) - pcbnew.VECTOR2I(p1))
replace 356 with: xp = x + random.uniform(-1, 1) * int(step_x / 5)
replace 357 with: yp = y + random.uniform(-1, 1) * int(step_y / 5)

comment-out lines 317-319.

comment-out lines 362-364.
Then just have:
if(hasattr(pcbnew, 'wxPoint')):
p = pcbnew.wxPoint(xp, yp)

replace line 368 with: if self.area.HitTestFilledArea(layer, pcbnew.VECTOR2I(p), 0):
replace line 370 with: via.SetPosition(pcbnew.VECTOR2I(p))
