How can I use InstaBuild to create a specific part?
Hei!
Want to ask is it possible to generate other products not only those three sample parts?
let say I want to generate/build TMC429, what I should do, could not found place to do that.

Hi Lauri!
Great question. So the short answer is that the "InstaBuild" tool shows up on part pages that we know are "InstaBuild-able". The conditions for that generally are that, 1) the part has a verified footprint available on SnapEDA 2) the pinout is represented in a table format and 3) the part doesn't already have a symbol linked to it.
In this case, it's not showing up because there's a symbol and footprint already there.
We're working on ways to improve this though, so I will forward your feedback on to our engineering team.
We should have some updates for you by end of week. Thanks for your question!

Hello
Any update on this please?
I would like to make the "FT4232H-56Q Mini Module" that is referenced on SnapEDA but had no schematic symbol nor footprint.
Thanks

Hi Lauri,
For this part, we won't be able to create the footprint using InstaBuild because it's not a standard package type that we currently support. However, we do have the ability to create the symbol for it.
If you're using Eagle, you can create the symbol for any part using this tool here: https://www.snapeda.com/instabuild/start/. (Please note it's still currently under development, and not polished) If you need it for formats other than Eagle, we'll have it ready towards the end of this month.
Sorry for the inconvenience and hope this helps for now.
Mike
