- Evaluate the best option for net highlighting (see
|
|
|
|
[remarks](https://bugs.launchpad.net/kicad/+bug/1486993)).
|
|
|
|
High contrast mode is meant for displaying the active layer in
|
|
|
|
color, while the others are shown using low-contrast
|
|
|
|
grey shades, so it is easy to keep focus on a single layer. Net
|
|
|
|
highlighting marks all objects belonging to the same
|
|
|
|
net with a bright color to facilitate board connections tracking.
|
|
|
|
The main question is: what mode should have the
|
|
|
|
priority when both high contrast mode and net highlighting are
|
|
|
|
enabled at the same time? Is it more important to
|
|
|
|
preserve single layer view or see items on all layers belonging to
|
|
|
|
the same net?

- Decide whether the PNS router should also handle track removal (see

|
|
|
|
The main reason behind the current implementation is that vast
|
|
|
|
majority of successful drawing software (e.g. Corel,
|
|
|
|
Adobe, GIMP, Inkscape) offer tools that perform exclusively a single
|
|
|
|
operation (either add or remove tracks, not
|
|
|
|
both at the same time). The new tools are trying to mimic behaviour
|
|
|
|
known from other widely used software packages,
|
|
|
|
so KiCad becomes more intuitive to use.
