- 📦KiCAD PCB Viewer updated to version 1.3.9Thank you for your feedback! New features in this release:
New: 3D mode reconstructs silkscreen text into smooth-rendered line capsule primitives and supports dashed line styles;
New: 3D mode enables rendering of blind, buried, and through-hole via wall metallization with copper plating, and introduces radial inward compensation for via diameters;
New: 3D mode supports high-fidelity rendering of footprint-level copper shapes (fp_poly, fp_line, fp_text);
New: 3D mode supports automatic edge drilling clipping and precise contour trimming for non-circular slot holes;
Improved: Expression parsing kernel now uses thread-safe high-precision floating-point conversion, significantly enhancing large file loading speed;
Improved: Reconstructed layer alias mapping system enables O(1) fast lookup across the entire footprint lifecycle and improved layer organization;
Improved: Decoupled document loading from thumbnail generation, enabling asynchronous background rendering of thumbnails;
Improved: Enhanced grid triangulation algorithm strengthens area and perimeter conservation checks for complex polygon topologies;
Fixed: Routing traces and arcs are reconstructed as continuous closed capsule geometries, eliminating endpoint voids via nonzero winding number detection;
Fixed: Resolved issue where pad and copper side walls in 3D mode appeared completely black under PBR lighting due to missing normal vectors;
Fixed: Addressed mesh generation and triangulation defects at keyhole bridging notches between solid silkscreen and copper polygons;
Fixed: Fixed problem where overlapping pads or adjacent SMD pads could occlude through-holes during inter-layer penetration;
Fixed: Resolved occasional anomalies where pad geometry cache and layer state became desynchronized during undo/redo operations.… more - 📈KiCAD PCB Viewer charting in a new countryUnited States

KiCAD PCB Viewer downloads
Worldwide, per day, and installs to date. The band is open; the exact number is free with an account.
How this is calculated
Apple publishes no download counts. App Store downloads come from chart positions and daily rating growth per country, calibrated on Google Play install counts; lifetime installs from ratings worldwide × installs per rating. Confidence is the chance the real number is within half to double ours.
