Eeschema is run in standalone mode, this is the available tool set: Note that when KiCad runs in project mode, the first two icons are not available as they work with individual files. Create a new schematic (only in standalone mode). Open a schematic (only in standalone mode). Save complete schematic project. Select the sheet size and edit the title block. Open print dialog. Paste a copied/cut item or tool. Highlight a net by marking its wires and net labels with a different color. If KiCad runs in project mode then copper corresponding to the selected net will be highlighted in Pcbnew as well. Display

For By default, KiCad loads symbols from the project libraries according to the set paths and library order. This can cause a problem when loading a very old project: if the symbols in the library have changed changed or have been removed or the library no longer exists since they were used in the project, the ones in the project would be automatically replaced with the new versions. The new versions might not line
