There is still the toggle for references and values in the render (elemente) tab. I don't understand why you exemplify it with 4.0.7 when you say there is no regression. Please illustrate what you would like to have and attach an example kicad_pcb file, it is easier to comment on that. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1741015 > I do think the behaviour of Legacy was always there, therefore my > confusion with the Values and References not visible when switching > canvases. > Is there any chance that in future there will be an option (again) to > toggle Value and Reference visibility independently from F.Fab and F.Silks? > > Best Regards, > André > > PS: xkcd reference: https://xkcd.com/1172/ ;) > > _______________________________________________ > Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers > Post to : [email protected] > Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers > More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp >
