Re: [PATCH] Board statistics dialog

 

Hi! 
Sorry for delay in my answer, I have 2 small kids and sometimes there's no time for everything.
Do I answer just to  kicad-developers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx , right?
Mario, Shuklin is my surname. Name is Alex)))
I will try to do what you are asking for. Do you mean "count" components, not list them? I mean, do you want to get count of surface mount, through hole and virtual footprints? That's shouldn't be a problem.
As far as I understand, modules in pcbnew file doesn't hold data about components. For example, I don't think I can count unique components (only unique footprints) without pulling data from schematic file.
Maurice, that was my message on forum) But indeed I've seen some similar questions.
I will keep you informed, when I add that to the patch.
