Can you test the attached patch: It removes the if( ..) useless test (and perhaps broken) which explains sometimes the panning does not happen. It set the cross hair position before sending the event which uses this position, and ensure the zoom center does not uses a strange previous

This workflow makes a lot of sense to me. I have a lot of experience with vcs but I still can't fit bzr into the right places in my mind to match up with anything I've used before. If you had patches in a series, like several in a row, you'd keep the same branch, generate diff, commit make

[Kicad-developers] SMT LEDs on board back side, but showing through a hole

2013-06-10 Thread Dick Hollenbeck
http://electronicdesign.com/boards/smt-leds-emit-light-through-holes Is there another way to do this with SMT without using this special product? Do SMT LEDS light on their backside? If show, could a person not use a normal SMT LED for this and simply put a NPTH in the middle of the two pads?

I am not certain if SMT LEDs light on their backside, but the ones I have used do not. One way to test this is with a continuity check on a multimeter--you can usually get a little light out. On the other hand, I have used these previously with the names gull wing or backmount or reverse mount

Reverse gullwing is what these LED types are called. http://www.vishay.com/docs/81779/vlre31.pdf I don't think you can use normal leds like this. Fitting upside down won't work for all the SMT LED packages I've worked with. Best Regards, Brian. On 10 June 2013 21:37, Dick Hollenbeck
