    Hi,

    In KiCad, I have created with PcbNew a circuit board, which has also 3d-modells of it's single electrical components (.wrl files). When I use the KiCad 3D-Viewer, I also see a 3D view as desired.

    In FreeCad, I added the module FreeCAD-PCB (and I can see the PCB-workbench). But when I try to open the above mentioned KiCad file <name>.kicad_pcb, I can see on the Freecad-console the error message

        No PCB border detected!
        Total time: 0[s]
    

    and no file .kicad_pcb file is loaded in FreeCad.

    My ...
    Operating System: Arch Linux 64bit
    KiCad-Version: 2016-06-24 BZR 6946, Git e47f0df)
    Freecad-Version: 0.16

    Hi,
    I just downloaded and compiled version from github and I do not have any problem similar to your. Probably (?) some board outlines in your project are not connected to each other. If you want you can upload your project so I can examine it.
