Hi Jon, Wow, the progress on gerbview is amazing. I must admit this is the first time I compiled it, but it works quite well. For SELECTION class ViewBBox() is overridden. It computes the bounding box size depending on its contents. Apart from that, SELECTION object is added to VIEW during

Hi Jon, I would not mind changing the current way of handling the GAL layers. They have not been put in the default layers enum, because the dedicated GAL layers are virtual, in the sense they are only to display certain objects (e.g. net names). I did not want to clutter the real layers set, so

This seem reasonable to me. I'm not sure why the gal layer enums would be different from the actual board layer enums. You would have to ask the author of gal layer enums as to why they are different. You may want to wait until that person comments on it. Cheers, Wayne On 3/12/2017 2:09 PM,

It would be very nice if we could have a totally standalone (in terms of constants used, etc) legacy loader that translates everything to the constants used in the new code, so we didn't always have to tread so carefully... On Sun, Mar 12, 2017 at 02:06:01PM -0400, Wayne Stambaugh wrote: > I

I would keep the enum values the same for the board layers. The GAL layer enum values would have to change. I would just move them all to be in one enum, and set a high starting value for the GAL layers. That way, there is only one structure and its easy to add layers that are needed for specific

I cannot speak about the GAL enums but I can tell you that if you muck up the legacy layer enums, you will almost surely break loading really old board files. I would proceed with extreme caution here. On 3/12/2017 12:25 PM, Jon Evans wrote: > Hi, > > Can anyone explain if there is a reason

Hi Kevin, thanks for your valuable feedback. Are you using opengl or Cairo canvas, or have you tried both? By default for now, transparency is turned off in GAL. I will switch it to default to on, but you can hit the button on the left toolbar. I will fix the default grid preference to be dots.

2017-03-12 Thread Jon Evans
Hi, Can anyone explain if there is a reason why the layer definition enums are done in the way they are? Using multiple enums for the "normal" layers and the GAL extra layers is complicating the code, especially now that I am using the GAL layers for GerbView, and also working on a color theme
