bitmap to component: place kicad mod files directy into pcbnew (lp:#1820829)
Original report created by zakhar nasimov (thedocument)
It would be ideal to make the most use of Bitmap To Component Converter by
permitting users to place Kicad Mod files right into pcbnew via Place -->
Kicad Mod File.
Currently a user cannot make much use of kicad mod files due to them being
able to be imported only into the footprint editor.
Upon importing the modfile into pcbnew a dialog should prompt the users
onto which layer it should go, including copper layers. This would give
more use for kicad mod files and reduce steps necessary to use them.
