I played with it a little bit but decided to learn KiKad instead. I was worried that as a corporate supported software
it might suddenly disappear or become non~free.Just paranoid I guess. KiKad has a bit of learning curve to it... right now I'm trying to figure out how to place vias at will (not just at the end of a trace)

Hi All,

Does anyone use the free RS DesignSpark PCB software? Is it any good?

I remember reading that it was originally called something else, but then RS bought out the company in order to keep up with Farnell, who've cut some deal with Eagle or some such thing.

Anyway, the important bit is "Is it worth the effort of learning it?"

Thanks,
Tom
