Protel can do arbitrary angles ;-) Still, I wouldn't put arbitrary angles on the list of most wanted features. It is more like "nice to have". > Besides the limitation of the code, placing a component at 45 degrees > has the problem that at least one point of connection will not lie on > the grid, making it difficult to attach a net to the component. I'd expect the line tool to catch the endpoint anyway. I thought, this is the purpose of the "crosshair snaps to pins and pads" setting. ---<(kaimartin)>--- -- Kai-Martin Knaak http://lilalaser.de/blog _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
