Rubber band mode is (still) much too sloppy about the decision which segment endpoints to move.
Imagine a short segment between longer ones like I constantly get because of the metric/imperial nuisance. Thes almost never rubber move in a decent way. Suppose a track looks like this: _____ 1 2\_____ 3 If I drag the top corners at segment 2 there are two sensible rubber modes: a) Segment 1 and 2 stretch. Segment 3 stays in place. b) Segment 1 and 3 stretch. Segment 2 moves a matching amount, no stretch However, rubber band mode almost invariably chooses a third mode: c) All three segments stretch. This results in /|\ / | \ / | \ / | \ /1 2| 3\ This is rarely a useful transform. ---<(kaimartin)>--- -- Kai-Martin Knaak tel: +49-511-762-2895 Universität Hannover, Inst. für Quantenoptik fax: +49-511-762-2211 Welfengarten 1, 30167 Hannover http://www.iqo.uni-hannover.de GPG key: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?search=Knaak+kmk&op=get _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
