gEDA-bug: [Bug 705397] Re: Unnecessary warning: Found a zero length pin:

[KaiMartin <705397@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Currently, gschem prevents creation of zero size pins. It silently refuses to create a pin if the mouse cursor indicates zero length.
( see bug 698614, https://bugs.launchpad.net/geda/+bug/698614 )

There is no meaning to the orientation of the cue anyway. Why is it
drawn as a little line? Circular blobs would suit the purpose much
better. Should I open a tracker report to request circular cue shape?

Title:
  Unnecessary warning: Found a zero length pin:

Status in GPL Electronic Design Automation tools:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  On start-up, gschem issues a warning if pins with zero length are found. E.g:
      Found a zero length pin: [ P 100 100 100 100 1 0 0]

  There is no reason to issue a warning. gnetlist does not care for the
  length of the pins. They are no problem in the GUI, either. When not
  connected, they are visible, by the red mark.

  Proposed solution:
  Remove the check for zero length pins on start-up.
