Could be useful and should not be intrusive. I see nothing bad in that. > What do you think? Does it make sense? As I said, I urgently need it, so I > will implement it.. But is it worth an additional menu entry in the release > branch? IIRC someone already asked for it. You could extend the 'search' dialog for that (something like a button 'Highlight All'). But I don't know if pcbnew handles multiple component highlighting at the moment (I fear for a g_currentComponent variable or such...) Wildcarding is easy to do, since wx has all the needed functions. Look in the eeschema search routines. PS: resistor *bag*? I hope you're talking about THT resistors, a bag of EIA chips would be awful to handle:D -- Lorenzo Marcantonio Logos Srl _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
