This will probably help a lot and reduce some confusion. /Jonatan ___ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user

It is the distance (radius in pixels and thus dependent on zoom setting) that the crosshair can be from the *actual* line end-point but still be considered *on* the line end-point for the purpose of dragging. It used to be 10 pixels, now it is 5 pixels. My impression is that it was hard to *not* grab the end-point unless you were zoomed in closely; it is better now. Finally remember that dragging any selection will move the whole selection. Since there is no way to select only end-points, if a line is selected and you drag it, you will drag the whole line (and anything else that's also selected). The cursor does not change shape when hovering over end-points of lines that are selected so it is a reliable indicator if you're grabbing the end or the line itself. ___ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user

Re: gEDA-user: Re: PCB Trim/extend traces
Are there plans to introduce visual handles at the end of the lines? I have checked in changes to the CVS tree that create a cursor change indicating when dragging will move the line end-point. I've also cut the slop range in half, which helps the useability quite a bit too. harry ___ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user

Not that I won't think about it some day, but I have plenty of other things to add to pcb to keep me occupied, and I don't want my list to get TOO long. I'll add it to the todo list (src/todo in pcb's sources). ___ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
