Re: [Kicad-developers] Cursor behavior

Good points, I'm especially excited about 1), our pcb edges are usually footprints, so I'm always working inside a footprint, which is continuously getting selected. Cheers On Jul 21, 2017 18:34, "Piotr Esden-Tempski" wrote: > Hi, > > > On Jul 20, 2017, at 4:44 AM, jp charras

[Kicad-developers] [PATCH 2/2] Legacy handling for Via tool

This tool isn't available in the Legacy canvas, but we still need to handle the selection event and show an appropriate error message if the tool is used. --- pcbnew/edit.cpp| 1 + pcbnew/onleftclick.cpp | 1 + 2 files changed, 2 insertions(+) diff --git a/pcbnew/edit.cpp

Re: [Kicad-developers] Cursor behavior

1) If a component is very large in the current zoom level it should be ignored. It makes it very difficult to select small components that end up on the opposite side of a large component. It is also very unlikely the user will want to move the thing that is not even visible at the moment

Re: [Kicad-developers] [PATCH] correct text inside two importantplot windows

This is correct. I just remember if the string in a group box (wxStaticBoxSizer) than it doesn't get a colon. If the string is static text (wxStaticText) that describes a text control, then it should end in a colon. On 7/21/2017 2:31 PM, Chris Pavlina wrote: > Generally single entry controls

Re: [Kicad-developers] [PATCH] correct text inside two importantplot windows

Generally single entry controls will contain a colon in the label but entire sections will not - thus "Output directory" and "Default line thickness (mm)" should have colons, but "Messages" and "Page Size" should not. This is because the single entry controls read as a single line of text, where

Yeah, you are right, modified the patch to show edge cuts, it felt better actually. On 07/21/2017 07:04 PM, Eldar Khayrullin wrote: Hello. Maybe it will be good to show Edge Cut always. В Пятница, 21 июл. 2017 в 6:57 , Kristoffer Ödmark написал: Added a few

Added a few more layer selections to the layer sidebar. Also included two modified versions of the show all layers icon, for front and back, but I couldnt find out how to make them into the cpp files. link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=148ZMCNWqTw=youtu.be >From

Re: [Kicad-developers] [PATCH] correct text inside two importantplot windows

Hi Wayne, this is an exmaple of the current plot schematic window. [image: Inline image 1] I think it is expected that "Output directory:" and "Default line thickness (mm):" and "Messages:" have a colon. Am I correct? cheers Fabrizio On Fri, Jul 21, 2017 at 4:23 PM, Wayne Stambaugh

Fabrizio, I pushed your patch to the master branch. Thank you for your contribution to KiCad. This is not aimed at your patch but one thing I notice is that there is and inconsistency in some of our wxStaticBoxSizer() strings. There are a few cases where the string ends with a colon (:) but

Re: [Kicad-developers] GAL canvas behavior.

I've been using the GAL canvas from the start and therefore pressing the ESC key twice to deselect an object is 'natural' to me. Even more since LibreCAD, the other tool I use regularly, has the same behavior. It never occured to me this behavior might not be intended. I also second Greg's
