Hi Wayne, I just have a look into it (it affects also Pcbnew in legacy mode) I am thinking it is a side effect of some change in key event management. It is a bug in EDA_DRAW_PANEL::OnKeyEvent(): when the ESC key is pressed, the key is captured, but EDA_DRAW_PANEL::OnKeyEvent() skips this event, and because it is skipped (should not) a second event is fired (as usual). I have a basic fix for that. I am just trying to understand why in 4.0 there is no problem, with a similar code. -- Jean-Pierre CHARRAS _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
