Feature Request: Display Real Pin Layout for Certain Components

[Philipp314]

I would like to request the addition of a feature that displays the real pin layout for certain components.

For some components (such as NE555, seven-segment displays, etc.), the pin arrangement is shown based on functionality, which is convenient for use. However, I plan to use this tool to design PCB layouts or prototyping board arrangements, and I haven't found a good software to achieve this elsewhere. Therefore, I would like to request the option to use the actual pin layout of the components for planning.

For better software for prototyping board arrangements, you could try EasyEDA. It's lightweight like falstad, and it more geared toward designing actual PCB layouts.

I prefer KiCad, but I think EasyEDA is a little more user friendly if you just want to move parts around with their actual footprints.
