This is the way to go. Get rid of grid based design, enter constrains and let the system figure out the coordinates. Modern CAD tools work like this. It would be awsome to have this integrated into the GUI.<daydreaming>
Component placement could benefit from this approach, too. Tell the system that the left edge of a connector should coincide with the upper edge of the layout and let the application do the required move. ---<)kaimartin(>--- -- Kai-Martin Knaak tel: +49-511-762-2895 Universität Hannover, Inst. für Quantenoptik fax: +49-511-762-2211 Welfengarten 1, 30167 Hannover http://www.iqo.uni-hannover.de -----> not happy with moderation of geda-user mailinglist _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
