[Kicad-developers] Grid & zoom drop-downs in GerbView and Eeschema

2018-07-11 Thread Jeff Young
GerbView was easy because it already has an auxiliary horizontal toolbar. However, Eeschema does not, meaning that if we added one we’d be giving up significant screen real-estate. Another option would be to put it in the main horizontal toolbar, but then we’d have to drop some stuff that is cu
