content: Just letting you know, Circuit Studio does run in Wine.I used these instructions for Circuit Maker:https://circuitmaker.com/blog/3-steps-for-installing-circuitmaker-on-linuxThere are some minor graphic bugs, nothing serious. Quite usable.edit: graphic bug when pressing P-P in schematic editor seems to be in the windows version as wellSo no graphic bug related to wine

content: Quote from: trevwhite on June 17, 2019, 09:37:23 pmSince my first post I have had a couple of the well known Altium crashes - but surprisingly the program continues to run perfectly. This is for example when importing a CircuitMaker pcb file, without having an other PCB file in the project. I don't know if this is a bug in Windows as well...(I could imagine it is)

content: Hey Everyone,This thread is quite a few years old and some of the links are stale. Anyone have any good instructions on how to get CircuitStudio to run under Linux Mint? I only have a few programs I use on Windows and it's beginning to irritate me so if I can move over CircuitStudio and get it to work properly, that'd be great.Much appreciated!SG

content: I'm not an active CS user these days, I gravitated to AD...which I would also like to get running on WINE.Have you tried installing and running CS in WINE?What's the showstopping issue?I tried looking forhttps://circuitmaker.com/blog/3-steps-for-installing-circuitmaker-on-linuxin the wayback machine...it's says 9 captures but none load for meAlternatively, this link might give a starting point (it's for CM rather than CS):https://github.com/sinara-hw/meta/issues/63Quote
