Nice. I got a chance to play with it and I like it. A couple of comments: 1) The use of s_tile_get_objectlists nicely simplified the search. 2) It might be nice to put an indicator in the status bar when it is on/off 3) The circle indicator suffers from the inverse problem as the grip boxes (circle drawn constant size, so they looks tiny compared to pins when zoomed in close). Maybe this is okay/better than the grip behavior (which is really large boxes when zoomed in close). 4) I like the circles as the indicators though. :) 5) I like the behavior but I don't know how it will be received by the users at first. What are your thoughts on if it should be on by default? 6) Also, I haven't made up my mind which parameters we need to expose in the rc file. Maybe just the enable at first and see what kind of feedback people have. Feel free to merge it to main git repo (I've looked at your code changes and they look just dandy) so that it gets some more exposure. -Ales _______________________________________________ geda-dev mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-dev
