I'm going to side with JP on this. While I applaud all efforts to improve our UI consistency, breaking things is not the way to go about it. I wonder if the navigation tool is really necessary. Does any one use it? I can't recall ever using it. We already have the hierarchy navigator dialog, leave sheet command, double click to enter a sheet, and alt-bkspc to leave sheet. Interestingly, the hierarchy navigation tool always enabled even on schematics with no sheets. Perhaps this is a tool that we can remove in the name of simplification. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers Post to : kicad-developers@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
