Pad Names and Collections of Pads
I just discovered Perf+ and Perfy, and I first want to say thanks for creating such a great and useful program. I see that is has been static for some time, but I hope you might consider two additional features: (1) Tag names that would display alongside a given defined pad, like "GND" or "VIN" or "GPIO 13", and device collections of pads like "Arduino Nano" or "RH22" that are geometrically related to each other and movable on the Perf+ board. Ideally these device collections would be saved in a library of some sort. With these two features, the design flow process would be greatly enhanced. I wish I were a better programmer, because I would gladly jump in and help, but I haven't done any Python or Java. Lots of Visual Basic for Applications within MS Office, and a fair amount of Arduino programming, if that would help. Here's a pic with Perfy and Sticky Notes overlay, fyi.
Thanks for the suggestion Jack. Pads and trace names were something I was originally planning to add, but I never had any indication that Perfy was used by enough people to justify doing any more work on it. If I do find some time in future to work more on it then I'll be sure to post an update here. Cheers!
