here's my guess about the problem: The mouse motion event undraws the symbol/selection at it's last position. If the last position was behind another window e.g. the placing dialog or something else, the undraw (XOR-put) will fail as there is nothing to undraw. To reproduce: * place a component * move the mouse cursor into the placement dialog (maybe one half of the symbol is still drawn inside gschem) * move the placement dialog away (opposite direction) * go back into the gschem window. The old half of the symbol is now gone and the other half of the symbol is drawn. It's a problem with the undraw function or a problem with the redraw funktion if another window is moved away. Either with the mouse or with the ESC key. To reproduce, second try: * start drawing a box * change the application using <alt> <tab> * go on drawing * change back to gschem * move the mouse Mmhh. This leeds to the following question: How does the redraw of the allready placed objects work? Is there an x_event that tells gschem that a window is not longer in front of gschem? Regards Werner
