Hi Chris,

What should be in that empty frame square below "Footprint"? (the footprint?) 
and what is on the dropdown box?

Could I suggest that you try some other arrangement on the layout of that ui?
The component filtered list, as you can see, in a regular use of the filter it 
should output a short list. So you will get all that white space not used. So I 
may prefer that it can be used by the other information..?.

My suggestion:
- The filter edit line only use the left side aligned with the component list 
(so you will get that space of the empty line on the top) and you can use that 
are for the component draw.
- Place the component text info on the left below and aligned on same column as 
the component list. And maybe you can use it more (vertical) compact as there 
are some blank space there between the lines.
- Place the Footprint frame below and aligned (same column) with component so 
it will use the space of the component info (that I suggested to be placed on 
the left)

oks.. its easier to look on the attached image ;)

Mario
