Prior to the release of version 5, the default behavior of the escape key when using a tool in Eeschema changed from cancel the current operation to cancel the current operation and enable the select tool (close the current tool). Prior to this change, two escape key presses were required. The first escape key press aborted the current tool action and the second escape key press exited the tool. Why was this changed? I don't remember any discussion on the developers mailing list about changing this. Now, every time you abort a tool action (say drawing a wire) you have to re-select the tool to resume your work. I would prefer that we change this back to the old behavior. Before we make any behavioral changes like this again, please get feedback from the development team.
