Hide "Do not panelize" items in 3D Preview

#1 Post by pebbert9 » 08 Aug 2022, 13:49

I use panelized boards with fiducials and holes on the edges for fixturing.
I would like a checkbox in the 3D preview screen to hide "do not panelize" items from view.

Right now I need to delete these items every time I need to export the 3D file and remember not to save when I exit.

I fully agree. I would like option to generate only single unit - especially as when I finish my connectors. See below, that shows currently one board buy all panel silkscreen and fiducials, as well as it rotates/scales not well referencing to middle of panel rather than to middle of single board.

There could be also option to display all boards on panel - maybe it would be not my top wish thouigh I guess you could also add this one easily.

Option I would more fancy is generate 3D view as per BOM, so e.g. in case of shown view I would not have debug headers nor components which are only variant option of future use or other produce (using the same PCB) use.
