Pcbnew is a powerful printed circuit board software and part of the
KiCad suite. Like Pcbnew the Footprint Editor is also part of KiCad.
The 3D models are provided as *.step and *.wrl files and intended to be
rendered by the Pcbnew and Footprint 3D viewer or other MCAD software.
.
The STEP files (*.step) are used for integration with MCAD software packages
(e.g. by openscad or freecad). The WRL files (*.wrl) are used for
photo-realistic rendering using KiCad's raytracing rendering engine.
.
The 3D models of this package are completely optional and not really needed
for developing of any PCB layout but they give the user a impressive
possibility to see how the PCB or the Footprint would look like.
.
This package is providing 3D Models for Pcbnew and the footprint editor
usable for KiCad >= 5.0.0.
.
Please note this package will use about 4GB of disk space! Ensure you have
