Teardrops not added to all pads

[NilujePerchut]

Teardrops on SMD pad in not well supported. You have to explicitly check the Include SMD pads if you want to try it.

The Do not insert teardrops inside same net zones prevents you to add teardrops inside a kicad zone. This is usually the good behavior to avoid holes in zone. See issue #18 for more details on that.

I did tick Include SMD pads

As I said above, teardrops on SMD pad are not working properly.
If you really need this feature, I suggest you to take look at the new kicad builtin teardrop (needs to compile the current nightly with a special flag).

It is easier than that, no need to compile anything: please download nightly (v6.99) and install as usual (will be side by side with existing v6.0). Then set allowteardrops flag insidde kicad_advanced file (search for that in the kicad forum). Teardrops are more advanced in native kicad, and I had no issues, ecen track neck down is implemented... But, dragons ahead, f8les saved with nightly (v6.99) are not backwards compatible with v6.0, so do backups.

Edit: exact texts (exact flagname and kicad_advanced filename) I written previously can be unprecise, came from my memory (I am not near pc now). But forum search should provide good results with similar keywords. I will be able to send my kicad_advanced file tomorrow. Also, I am not sure if that flag is needed anymore at all in order to use native teardrops, maybe this feature is already revealed to the public, too long time ago i changed that advanced file.

Thanks a lot ! I will give it a try.
