> Can you go a bit more into detail why a part has to be rotated in one board but not in the other? That makes no sense to me...

Additionally, now they changed many basic components into _Extended (preferred)_ which still don't have an assembly fee, but it is not as easy as it used to be to filter...

I think #381 will not fix anchor placement issue. I was contemplating about this here https://github.com/Bouni/kicad-jlcpcb-tools/issues/379#issuecomment-1780941425. I still think, having dedicated JLC part offset setting would be better than anchor...

OneDrive also gives the ability to exclude specific uploads based on file extensions. I think this requires changing group [policy](https://github.com/Fleex255/PolicyPlus). `*.bak` is a no-brainer. Excluding `.db` is not ideal, but...

> when sourcing parts during layout, I can just browse the (basic) JLPCB parts/ normal LCSC parts database. @oliv3r you might be interested in my [simple gui](https://github.com/Springer-Electronics/JLC2KiCad_lib/tree/master), short video here:...

For Kicad 7.99, this seems to work for some reason without even selecting copper layers: ``` footprint.GetLayerBoundingBox(footprint.GetLayerSet()).GetCenter() ``` Alternatively combining boundboxes of each pad works with Kicad 7: ``` pads:...

I can submit the PR. Bounding box logic will work with 7.0. Should the same logic be applied to SMD components though? https://github.com/Bouni/kicad-jlcpcb-tools/blob/eca019d8366539c363e5b429c2e8e5bf4560052a/fabrication.py#L116 I tested it on my old board...

In the PR, I prioritized point 1. (I removed ` if get_smd(footprint)`) so that if people have an anchor not in the center, the plugin will help them. Point 2....

I think [Monitorian ](https://github.com/emoacht/Monitorian/issues/424)does it already.

Would be good to synchronize with the Windows master volume or better with the specific device volume.
