Re: Append board in pcbnew

 

I can probably look at this next week earliest. If you want that then
please send me a personal email and tell me how you expect it to work along
with the two board files.

1) Is the purpose of appending a board for panelizing?

2) Was this once working correctly and is now not? If yes, approximately
when did it get broken?
