What's New
Version 1.1.16:
- Added the Export -> Solder Paste Design... menu command which creates a new Osmond design from the current design to permit finer control over the creation of solder paste templates. The new design retains from the original design only surface mount pads, which can then be modified or augmented as needed.
- Fixed a bug that could cause a crash when exporting a PostScript file of a very large board.
- Fixed a bug that could cause portions of a rotated rectangular pad to not draw correctly.
- When searching for a part, real parts will be searched before text parts.
- When exporting Gerber files, a warning will be given if parts are found outside the working area.
- Fixed a bug that could cause the Change Pin dialog to not display the correct pad types on inner layers when copying from an existing pin. The same problem also existed with the New Pin dialog.
- Fixed a bug that could cause the Vector Font or Apple Font selection buttons to be incorrectly set in the Text dialog.
- Fixed a bug that could in rare cases cause connected pins to display as unconnected.
- The Text tool can now be used when editing part types.
- Fixed a bug that could cause a crash after replacing a surface mount part that has connected traces with a through hole part.

Ferget about Eagle, it's a completely non-intuitive program that should never have made it to Mac.
-But Osmond works quite well. If you have trouble finding out how to make your first PCB, please follow the tutorials; after you've done so, you'll find Osmond PCB quite easy! :)
Definitely recommended.
I couldn't resist buying it, although I haven't gone past the limits yet. ;)

Developer was very quick and helpful when I had questions.
I have made products using this app with no problems from the pcb house.]
DXF input works for most of my existing drawings from other apps.

I agree that Mr. Chavez is very responsive to suggestions and feedback etc.. So much so in fact that I feel guilty about pestering him again to ask why - after some months - the file icons reverted to 'generic' when all other app icons are unaffected (probably something I did anyway...)
HIGHLY recommended!
