There are, a couple of them. The footprint display in cvpcb, the library viewer in eeschema, the footprint wizard frame, the footprint viewer, have no USE_WX_OVERLAY, other than that the section is identical. Maybe it's needed only for user interaction i.e. rubberbanding? Since these are read only views it isn't needed (but shouldn't give problems, I think). I factored two thing from GeneralControl, in two protected methods: - The first block: handles snapping the pos to the grid (if needed) and the big switch with the cursor keys (I added the ctrl-arrow to move 10 steps at a time, I find it useful); this also remove the need for acquiring the grid in most of these functions. - The second block: the if (oldpos != newpos) to redraw the crosshair and do the mouse capture callback (this is where the overlay is used). The part in between varies wildly (the pcb edit is the most complex since it also does snapping and DRC), in the minor views I left a smaller switch for the F1-F4/Space handling; this of course could be perfected. -- Lorenzo Marcantonio Logos Srl _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers Post to : kicad-developers@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
