Here's a summary of what I was working on: Planning PCB layout
I'm considering moving the layout inside and cleaning up any traces. I could use the placement tool to preserve the board while deleting dangling traces. The user asked for an 8x8 matrix, though I currently have four 4x4 modules arranged in a 2x2 grid, plus the MAX chip on the far right. The board is quite large at 120x100, so I shouldn't resize it. I need to compact the matrix in the center with the controller nearby and update my to-do list.
The Files tab is empty because this project currently has 0 project documents saved there. There is only one asset in the project, a .glb file named liquid-diffuser-acrylic.glb, and it is not marked as a thumbnail, footprint, 3D model, or board shape.
So nothing was deleted by the recent routing attempts — there just aren’t any markdown/spec/report files in the Files tab right now.
I’ll create a concise project-related file in the Files tab summarizing the 8x8 MAX7219 LED matrix module, current layout intent, and known routing cleanup items.
The schematic has been arranged automatically. Flux can redraw it to be more readable, with components placed in related groups and wires drawn more legibly. This takes about 10-60 mins.
