Kicad Templates

Kicad Templates

This document is an example of how to create Kicad Templates. 
I have found using this method to work best for me.  
You don’t need to follow the files system structure I used in this this example.
I have selected this file system method for ease of use.

Change the Path for User Templates in Kicad

 Open Kicad
 Select: Preferences Tab 
 Select Configure Paths
 Select:  KICAD_USER_TEMPLATE_DIR	/home/pi/kicad/template
 Under Path column change to: /home/pi/Kicad-projects/Kicad-templates

Set up:

In your home directory create a directory named Kicad-projects.
mkdir Kicad-projects
Then CD to your new directory.
cd Kicad-projects
In the Kicad-projects directory make another directory named kicad-templates.
mkdir kicad-templates
