GilDev / GDEK - History

🚧 V-cut panelization test

Change the shape of the board to have two straight edges, allowing to add tooling rails required for PCB assembly. This removes some PCB under the thumb’s outermost key. The whole board could also be made wider but that’s not great either, making that centermost matrix key look bad (or this key could also be removed altogether, with a layout more like the original Sofle).

➕ Add missing encoder footprint

Hide silkscreen.

🚨 Fix all DRC issues!

For real! Still have to check clearance to board outline later on, mostly for the jack connector’s pads.
Other half can probably be started now! Or maybe I try to make this one reversible, that would be cool, but required two-sides assembly because of the LEDs.
This evening was pretty productive, good night!

🐛 Fix matrix traces

Had to be moved because of the outline change on the top right switch.

🔧 Refine board constraints and components positions

I think this time is the one! The encoder will be able to accept 20 mm knobs which I feel are better to use.
