Oops! Good catch JP. I forgot about that. The cross-probing should work the same way (at least as much as possible) in both canvases. I use this feature quite a bit on dual monitor setups. That being said, we should be able to clear the crosshair when leaving the canvas and redraw the crosshair when a crossprobing message is received unless another mouse leave message is sent after the crossprobe event occurs. I would expect that's not the case but occasionally there are some surprise messages that get sent by wxWidgets. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
