Hey!
I just spent some time trying to "debug" a library non-issue with a EE
switching from Altium for a test. He had added the libraries correctly,
and they showed up. But everytime he tried adding a symbol to the
schematic, no symbols was there. We sent pictures back and forth, and
indeed the libraries added, but did not show up.
To make a long hassle short, turns out the shortcut "P" is used to place
symbols in Altium, but to place Power symbols in kicad.
This is not an issue, however, there is no indication at all that the
symbol chooser is actually filtered or limited when using the shortcut key.
I think there could be benefits of adding some kind of visualization to
the symbol chooser that the list is limited to only power symbols, maybe
just changing the window title to something like "Choose Power Symbol"
or the more general term of adding the filter to the window name. Let me
know what you think
