pcbnew, plot settings reset

[Nicholas Savenlid]

When I o into pcbnew it has forgotten all its settings about layers for gerbers.

Also I would like to beg on my knees for following imensely big improvment.

Make it configurable so you can plot gerebers and pdf with fix specific settings for each of the layers.
Mirrored etc.

I want to produce production files with 1 single click, once I have it all setup.
Now i need to toggle between pdf and gerrgerb and toogle between include and not include pcb-edge, include footprint-references 1 layer mirrored etc.

This is a lot of manual work everytime and if you use kicad professionally this is very cumbersome and also error-prone as you risk doing something different (wrong) from time to time.

Please.

Hi
Turns out my error report was wrong.

But my wishlist remain super-valid.

Best regards

Forgot to mention,

also include the pick-and-place files into same dialog.
Production file generation in 1 single place.

Once configured it should be a 1-click thing "generate"
