I thought I did "git reset --hard origin/before_pours". But may be not. I just fetched, did a reset and compiled at home and did not get the changed zoom behavior. >> Other CAD applications have >> elaborate ways to choose between literally hundreds of tools.

Back in 1999 Microstation by Bentley did it this way: left click = do the default action right-click-drag = a horizontal menu with several icons representing different modes of the tool appears. The icon that is highlicghted on mouse button release is executed. right-click = the horizontal appears. Left-click on an icon makes this mode the default of the tool. That way you can deal with a multitude of modes and get an intuitive way to configure the default to your own, special needs. OK, this is certainly too much for pcb in its current state. But it shows, what a powerful GUI can do. ---<)kaimartin(>--- -- Kai-Martin Knaak Öffentlicher PGP-Schlüssel: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x6C0B9F53 _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
