I'm currently (although not actively) working on a series of improvements to the copy / paste / move / place buffers in gschem, which will see rotate (and possibly mirror) working in all of the above places. I'll try to ensure the drawing artifacts are fixed. I think I know why the one you see here is seen... if you hold Ctrl down, the motion may be constrained to Manhattan mode about some origin, and as the Ctrl key is held during the keyboard shortcut for paste, an image of your buffer is drawn incorrectly (in the manhatten mode). The release of the Ctrl key doesn't trigger a repaint in the correct place. I mentioned this to Ales when I noticed it, and I think we agreed that the correct / easy fix is that copy / paste buffers should not have Manhattan mode at all, as there is no sensible origin to base from. -- Peter Clifton Electrical Engineering Division, Engineering Department, University of Cambridge, 9, JJ Thomson Avenue, Cambridge CB3 0FA Tel: +44 (0)7729 980173 - (No signal in the lab!) _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
