It's actually a non-modal dialog, DJ changed my snarky quote. If it were modal, you wouldn't be able to drive the main window without closing it. On the other hand, I've found that PCB will crash if you do any real editing during the DRC. I haven't tried to fix it because batch operation would avoid it altogether. > Would it be difficult to re-engineer DRC to operate in a batch mode? That's one thing I would really like to do. I'd also like to see the number of issues reported for a single interaction (eg between two copper traces) reduced. One mistake on a board might get repeated 3 or 4 times, and none of the errors are particularly clear. Oh yeah, and the whole set of DRC checks should be reevaluated. :) -- Ben Jackson AD7GD <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.ben.com/ _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
