This is very useful, I've had it on my todo list but never really started coding. Actually, I was planning to implement the "Frequently used symbols sidebar" feature, as described on http://geda.seul.org/gsoc/projects.html. The way I imagined it, we would have a (dockable?) sidebar with the symbols in use, like so: _________ | | | symbol | | list | |_________| | | | preview | | widget | |_________| We could even have the whole component selector embedded in the sidebar, for even easier access. Of course, the sidebar should be easy to show/hide/dock. Note that I'm not proposing removing the component selection dialog; it would still be just an 'i' key away. > Please try it out.

The --track is there so future pulls will fetch new commits and merge them into the branch. -- Ivan Stankovic, [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Protect your digital freedom and privacy, eliminate DRM, learn more at http://www.defectivebydesign.org/what_is_drm"; _______________________________________________ geda-dev mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-dev
