Options Assign

e14 Contributor

Your "Options Assign" looks good on its surface but it has one outstanding

weakness. It is not customizable for the different editor windows.

 

What might make for a good keyboard shortcut in the schematic editor would

not necessarily be very intuitive in the PCB window. You should make it so

that the user can assign a different meaning to one particular key

combination for the different editor windows.

 

For instance I might want C+R to be "Route" in the PCB editor but that would

have no meaning in any other editor window. Then if I then wanted C+R to be

"Route" in the PCB editor

and C+R to be "Redo" in the schematic editor, it is not possible with your

current implementation.

    that's not correct.

     

    eagle stores key assignments for schematic, board & library editors

    separately.

    For exemple I have set in eagle.scr :

     

    ####################################################################

    #

    1.   Defaults for circuit board windows.

    #

    BRD:

     

    assign C+W route;

     

     

    ####################################################################

    #

    1.   Defaults for schematic windows.

    #

    SCH:

     

    assign C+W net;

     

     

     

    So that the same key shortcut has a similar behavior (connection) on both

    windows.
