In GTK-version of pcb this option resides abou midway through the Settings menu. > Sorry, what I really wanted to do is invert the refdes, not the > component. Is there any invert option for the refdes? I don't think, that this can be done from within the GUI. There is nothing in the land pattern document about on mirrored text, either. ( http://www.brorson.com/gEDA/land_patterns_20070818.pdf ) By the way, is there a more comprehensive documentation of the pcb format available? Another side note: The download page on sourceforge features pcb-20091103.tar.gz . By contrast, on the newest news item on gpleda announces Development snapshot 20081128 ( http://pcb.gpleda.org/news.html ) >>> 6.

And yes, this makes editing polygons a pain. I tend to kill the polygon in question and do a redraw from scratch. ---<(kaimartin)>--- -- Kai-Martin Knaak tel: +49-511-762-2895 Universität Hannover, Inst. für Quantenoptik fax: +49-511-762-2211 Welfengarten 1, 30167 Hannover http://www.iqo.uni-hannover.de GPG key: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?search=Knaak+kmk&op=get _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
