2018-10-07 21:28:44 Nick Østergaard description Trying to open a kicad_pcb from old-stable in the 5.0 branch fails. The test file is https://raw.githubusercontent.com/myriadrf/reference-development-kit/master/umyriadrf-7002/v2/KiCAD/uMyriad7002.kicad_pcb Inspired by the info from http://kicad-pcb.org/help/upgrading/ about the layer names. It looks like some layers are missing in the top of the file. I manually added (10 Inner10.Cu signal) (9 Inner9.Cu signal) (8 Inner8.Cu signal) (7 Inner7.Cu signal) The question is: Do we need to implement some, legacy logic to handle these files? Maybe an experimental file healer for know issues?
