If the proposed modified drag is caught with some settings of some window managers then the affected users are in the same situation like now. Everybody else would gain a shortcut to a frequently needed action.

gEDA-user: pcb: print bottom side with top silk
Hi. Is there a way to print the bottom side with top silk mirrored? I mean, something like see-through from the bottom side of the board. This would come handy for perfboard prototyping. BTW, I uploaded a perfboard footprint to gedasymbols. http://www.gedasymbols.org/user/kai_martin_knaak/footprints/misc/lochraster2.fp This is meant to compensate for the inability to print the grid. ---)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+kmkop=get ___ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user

Thank you for implementing it. I found that it makes a funny thing when you move a cutout corner outside the polygon. Yes, the legality checking of such polygons isn't very good. This stems from the fact PCB's existing legality checking for user-defined polygons is really quite poor. (It lets you draw / drag to make polygons it will then assert() or crash on if built with full debugging). I wish we could define pads as polygons, so with this feature any kind of pads could be implemented. Solder-mask cut outs would be nice too. That would be quite neat - it probably requires some file format additions. For now, I believe (aside from in my pours branches where the feature is disabled), you can draw rectangular pads with the rect polygon tool.

Re: gEDA-user: pcb: print bottom side with top silk
Very good idea - if not implemented, this is definitely worth it. Good for prototyping and repairing etched boards with routing errors...
