Please file bug reports against these issues. Missing features may not be noticed during development so it's important if you find something that is missing to report it. I cannot guarantee that all of them will get fixed but I'm willing to bet that many of these issues the gal devs are not even

Re: [Kicad-developers] Via tool in Pcbnew.

Hi Orson, I do agree that a single solution does not satisfy everyone, nor does it have to. I was just adding my voice to Heikki's that the PNS router does not quite handle some of the basic tasks that I am needing to do, that the legacy interface does handle. The details are complex,

A few things I remember when using nighties. * disable design rule checking button is ignored in GAL. I use it when I swap 2 pins in the schematic, I turn off drc, make the track change, then rebuild connectivity. Otherwise I end up deleting the whole track and starting over. * On legacy pressing

Re: [Kicad-developers] Via tool in Pcbnew.

The legacy canvas is going to be removed after the v5 release so it would be a waste of time to implement the via tool in the legacy canvas only to have it removed a short time later. On 7/20/2017 5:47 AM, Heikki Pulkkinen wrote: > Hi Wayne > > Why not support legacy users? Why everybody should

Re: [Kicad-developers] Via tool in Pcbnew.

I'm with Heikki. I've been using the GAL canvas for a complex project. I don't really have time to learn the nuances of the interactive router; I found that highlight collisions kept it from doing stuff I did not want in tight layouts and I fall back to legacy for things like tweaking track

Re: [Kicad-developers] Via tool in Pcbnew.

Hi Wayne Why not support legacy users? Why everybody should use gal canvas? Do not have to answer, just try to understand your politics. Regards Heikki On Wed, Jul 19, 2017 at 4:15 PM, Wayne Stambaugh wrote: > Heikki, > > I'm not suggesting that we add the new via tool

Re: [Kicad-developers] Via tool in Pcbnew.

Heikki, I'm not suggesting that we add the new via tool to the legacy canvas. The legacy canvas is going to be removed after the v5 release so it doesn't make much sense. However, having a toolbar button that does nothing will confuse users. That why I suggested that we hide the via toolbar

[Kicad-developers] Via tool in Pcbnew.

We probably should disable or not even expose the via tool on the right toolbar in pcbnew when the legacy canvas is active since it doesn't do anything. I think this will just confuse users. I can file a bug report if this helps. Cheers, Wayne ___
