No problem.

Ok, personally I haven't found much issue with the Options dialog.
only thing bothering me about the options dialog is the visually
broken wxSpinCtrls which for some reason have their buttons at only
60% of the height of the textfield on Linux Mint.

Using "Total" would be just as clear and would line up nicer with
"Warnings" and "Errors".  Just my 2 cents.

Hi Mark,

Thanks for your work, I've not had a chance to look at the merge request.

Generally discussion is always a great idea because it's hard to glean
from a diff what the intended changes are and what the impact is going
to be. I'm at work at the moment so still can't review the diff.

I'm currently working on the eeschema options dialog to improve the
template field names editor so please don't change that at the moment,
otherwise you'll get conflicts in the .fbp file and they are a
complete pain to sort out manually!!

Best Regards,

Brian.

I was thinking it could be "Total issues", "Warnings", "Errors",
having the word "count" repeat 3 times seems...redundant. Total errors
is also wrong since its warnings + errors.

Just from looking at the screenshots: in the ERC report section, another
fix would be to have "Total error count", "Warning count", and "Error
count" rather than the pluralised versions at the moment.

Also fixes ERC  Dialog not counting errors at all. For some reason
SetLabel was used on wxTextCtrl isntead of SetValue.

[Kicad-developers] [RFC] Eeschema dialog tweaks

2014-10-07 Thread Mark Roszko
I submitted this as a merge request but it may be best to discuss it
on the mailing list.

I started to hit up the other Eeschema dialogs while I was working on
the hotkey editor.

https://code.launchpad.net/~mark-roszko/kicad/eeschema-dialog-tweaks

Changes:
=
-Use the verb "Generate" rather than the noun "Netlist" on the button
in the Netlist Dialog. Netlist isn't a real verb.
-Use the verb "Annotate" instead of the noun "Annotation" in the
Annotate Schematic dialog.

-ERC Dialog:
--***Add tooltips to ERC options matrix buttons to indicate what their
current state is, for newb friendliness.***
--Cleanup ERC options code that for some reason decided to delete the
button and recreate it instead of just updating it's bitmap directly.
--Fix dialog title to be "Electrical Rules Checker" to match everywhere else.
--Fix all usages of "Erc" to "ERC" consistently.
--Move action buttons to bottom of dialog, make Del Markers actually
say Delete Markers.
--Make the "Test Erc" button into "Run" because you are running the
electrical rules checker and not testing it.

Only real changes of contention are the buttons in ERC dialog moving
and the Netlist vs Generate word usage.
