Hi peeps,

I was looking to change the module text (value and reference) height
default so that it is in sync with the KiCad Library Convention, but I
can't seem to figure out what's missing. I changed this define in
pcbnew/class_board_design_settings.cpp to have 1.0 instead of 1.5:

#define DEFAULT_TEXT_MODULE_SIZE    Millimeter2iu( 1.5 )  <-- original value

But still, when I create a new footprint, the value and ref are 1.5mm high.
What am I missing here?

Carl
