FlexBV FREE Edition - Modern Boardview software for Win, macOS and Linux

[ShocK-306HDi]

Can you link the schematic for this board? (only if it is posted in the schematic forum)

Also, can you share the 2 resistor values that are on the ACDET line? Need the high side and low side resistor values. You can measure the resistance to ground on ACDET and the measurement should be close to the low side of the resistor value. If not, then the capacitor is affecting the resistance. For now, leave the capacitor in circuit but we may have to review these resistors.

Do you have a stable 19v5 as the input to the logic board? This voltage does not drop during use?

Yes, 19v5 stable.

I've on ACDET PR1032 with 38 kohm and PR1031 with 38 kohm measure to ground
If I measure resistor PR1032 I have 49 kohm and on PR1031 247 kohm, on schematic I should have on PR1031 430 kohm

I really like Flexbv free, but I would like to know if you plan to sell access for more than a month, 3 months, six months or a year to the full version?
And the paid version also includes a catalog of all MacBook boards (schematics, BRD)?

Thank you for having free version and excellent work !. Better than boardview.
Planning to buy Full version.

cheers

How to set the split window that will show both sides of the board?

Free version doesn't show both sides concurrently. Demo of paid version only.

Everything seems to be ok,
"Program preferences" is now accessible, i thought it was a demo limit.
Thanks, demo version show now all potential of FlexBV

...

EDIT: Both issues now resolved ---- if you've downloaded the demo before, you can now download it again

Well I've resolved the odd preferences/colour issues but I'm still digging around on the extra console window coming up

.

Thanks, i use windows version.
Something else happen too : a dos windows is open in the same time of flexbv (flexbv5 demonstrator), and we can't use de X buton to quit, we must use menu File \ Quit., not a big problem
This is not present in free version too.

Interesting, I see it too on my W10 test machine now with the demo. I suspect it might be the SDL engine or the inclusion of a console/io lib causing it to spawn a terminal - needs to be found & fixed, thanks.

I see what you mean also about the colour preferences - will sort that out too

Colour preferences menu is ok in free version.

I'll have a look and see if there's anything I can replicate here

Colour preferences menu is ok in free version.

In demo version, FlexBV hangs when choosing "Colour Preferences" in settings menu.
Is it a demo limit?

Does it do the same with the free version? Being able to change colour preferences is not a restricted item.

You can email me or talk in the discord for FlexBV support ( https://discord.com/invite/Cv39VCnsrU )

Update 5.0272 is now available.
Fixes some issues with some Teboview files causing a crash or search results that hit parts with no pins.

Thank you

Is there no boardview software for android?

I believe that Openboardview did have an android build on one of the forks but it's definitely not a platform I'm currently building for.

How do you make the menus readable on hidpi display ?
