Drop button :-(

Former Member
Former Member over 13 years ago

Inside the add componentt menu, WHAT IN THE HECK WERE YOU THINKING WHEN YOU PUT THE DROP BUTTON THERE?  First of all, any normal user who's not completly high on bath salts would think "drop" would drop the component onto the schematic. BUT NO, it drops a subset of the library from the database obviously.  I mean "remove" takes a few too many characters to fit in the button nicely or something.  Then it corrupts the library so when I "use" the library again, I get an error message and can't use those components any more.

    Well, it's just one of those little Cadsoft things: you spent 10 years 

    trying to avoid clicking on that button by accident, while during that 

    entire period you've got no idea whatsoever what it is doing there or why 

    it is named that way.

     

    It adds to the nerdy charm of the program, I guess..

     

    Maybe, when Klaus has fully recovered from working on the 'CUT & COPY' 

    soap, he can take on this one?
