gEDA-dev: PCB bug (GTK HID)

[Peter Clifton]

Hi,

I've been having difficulty with the latest PCB release - specifically,
the schematic drawing glitching / moving about seemingly randomly.

ESPECIALLY when zoomed in, working on the back side of a board. Just
moving the mouse over it can trigger the issue.

I also noticed that clicking a net in the netlist jumps my mouse cursor
onto the schematic - which is unhelpful when you want to identify
several components in a row.

For my own use (and for the CUED package), I've reverted the checkin:

"fill in the missing code to get the gtk HID set_crosshair() function
working as well as the Cursor() action"

cvs rdiff -r1.44 -r1.45 pcb/src/hid/gtk/gtkhid-main.c

http://pcb.cvs.sourceforge.net/pcb/pcb/src/hid/gtk/gtkhid-main.c?r1=1.44&r2=1.45

I've not yet had chance to look into the underlying cause.

Regards,
