I think you have enough space there to have "Place" and "Edit" buttons side-by-side. The drop-down menu doesn't need to be that wide. You could also place "Edit" button below the "Place" button: | Drop down |v| | Place | | Edit | >> If you really think "Hide" button is needed, at least change the label >> and icon.

"Place" and "Place & hide" would be a better choice of labels IMO. Can't think of an icon though. >>> Please don't make me push Refresh when working with the file system. >> Why not use inotify on systems that support it?

I did some research and it does look tricky to implement this cleanly within a purely GTK application (even without problems with different library sources you mentioned). Most applications I've seen use inotify through GNOME VFS, which is probably out of the question for libgeda. > Also, more important question: what is so wrong with pressing a perfectly > obvious and discoverable button?

Computers should be able figure out by themselves when it's time to refresh a list.
