There is a new release [lp:~cern-kicad/kicad/selection_tool] available for testing with some improvements to the tools: - undo/redo for all operations you can do in the GAL canvas - highlighted ratsnest for currently modified items (also for the PNS router) - for those who have strong habits - you can edit items in the same way as with the default canvas (hover over an item and select an operation), for people willing to try another approach - you may select items and then modify them (using hotkeys or right-click context menu) I would like to thank Carl Poirier for speeding up the ratsnest algorithm for multicore CPUs - good job! Also, for those who have not checked the selection_tool branch before, there are some other changes to experience: https://lists.launchpad.net/kicad-developers/msg11907.html
As usual - I would be very grateful for some testing, before I propose the branch for merging. This time it is particularly important to me, as there are some changes to KiCad's core. This means that I really need to be sure that there is nothing broken. Now you should be able to carry out most editing steps in a more comfortable way than before. The next step is drawing tools. Please let me know what else you miss in the GAL canvas.
