The PCB file > has not been edited for around 6 months, IIRC. I never use gsch2pcb anymore since I discovered the pcb "Import Schematics" feature. This import features is so much more streamlined than gsch2pcb, especially if you have changed footprints since it will keep footprint locations constant (more or less... sometimes it gets them rotated wrong). Also, no scripts, makefiles, or external tool invocation by the user required. Is there any reason you still use gsch2pcb / xgsch2pcb? Regards, Colin
