I had to downgrade to Blender 4.0.2 to get pcb2blender to work.
pcb2blender 2.9 has some issues in the install process on Blender 4.1,

Blender 4.1 is not supported yet.

is there any update on a potential release time? My system runs like shit on blender 4.0, but on 4.1 it's great. and your tool is fantastic!

Hello !
The issue seems to be with the way auto smooth is handled in blender 4.1 ( essentially the option has now been changed to shade smooth by angle, which marks edges as sharp)

obj.data.use_auto_smooth = True

is no longer available (importer.py:1029)

bpy.ops.object.shade_smooth_by_angle()

should work, but I don't know if that is what you want to do in this context.
Would you like me to submit a PR for this ?

Best regards,

The auto smooth issue should be fixed now, sadly that wasn't very straight forward though ...

My mediocre test setup is indicating that there's an issue with file saving/loading though, so there won't be a release until that's resolved too.

This is due to a bug in Blender 4.1.0 so that version won't be supported. A version that supports 4.1.1+ is available now.
