Subject:[pcb-rnd] preferences dialog
Hi pcb-rnd users/developers,
 
Back in October I wrote about 1/4th of the new preferences dialog. It's 
written using DAD, which means it will work with lesstif as well (minus 
the tree-table widget, e.g. for the library paths tab). It's part of the 
big effort to rewrite all dialogs from gtk/lesstif specific code to common 
DAD code that works the same way in all current and future HIDs without 
having to reimplement them for each HID.
 
It can be invoked by executing the "preferences" action from the command 
line. It already shows how the new thing will work: there's no apply 
button - anything you change is an immediate change.
 
Known limitations (work in progress): only the first 4 tab does anything 
yet. For most operations there's no undo yet, and you can't yet control 
where the config is saved (it's always the DESIGN role for now).
 
If you find any other bug about how the new preferences dialog works, 
please report. (Bugs affecting this dialog box only are not considered 
critical, as it's not yet part of production use.)
 
Best regards,
 
Igor2
