Thus this drc message is particularly annoying. However, I do find running the gnetlist drc useful to find bonehead errors like forgetting to connect a certain "input port" symbol to the corresponding "output port" symbol, or typos in the net names of such symbols, etc. It's too bad that it has so many flaws, I guess, since it has the potential of being a very powerful tool.

What gEDA gives You here are many ways to Make symbols with symbol generators such as djboxsym. This is posable because of out plain text formatted library. Don't let a library make a decision for you. We use cadence at work and never touch the default library. I now have two friends that chose eagle because of it's library and now don't even use its library. For the microcontrollers.

In your example above, the windows title bar says "PCB Preferences". I think that the preferences thing is in the gtk hid only. In the lesstif hid, there is a menu "Settings", but grids are choosen in submenu "View"->"Grid". The menu is constructed at compile time from src/pcb-menu.res where the grid choises are hardcoded and parsed at program start time by resource_parse() unless a file "pcb-menu.res" is available in ./pcb-menu.res, ~/.pcb/pcb-menu.res, ... For me it is ok to hand edit that file. What are you working on, is it simply a gui for setting the grid choises or something else? What could be interesting is to have different grids for different things, like: . something this big snaps to 2mm raster, this medium sized object snaps to 1mm raster . via's snaps to a 1mm raster, components to 2mm, signal traces 0.5mm . this connector has imperial pitch, let it snap to 0.05" raster, this connector has 5mm pitch, let it snap to a 1mm raster Regards, /Karl Hammar --- Aspö Data Lilla Aspö 148 S-742 94 Östhammar Sweden +46 173 140 57 ___ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
