Re: gEDA-user: PCB multiple footprint selection



Perfect. Thank you John and Phil. In spite of being pretty far along with component placement, I hadn't noticed and tried that button yet.

At first,I was expecting the selection to only take components on the active
layer. Then I thought turning off the opposite layer would disable the
component selection on the opposite side of the board but that didn't work
either. I checked the release notes for newer versions of the software and
didn't see that this issue had been covered but, I was still wondering if a
newer version might have improved this behavior or if someone had a
suggestion for working around it more effectively.

In my PCB version there is a button labeled "far side". Clicking "far
side" makes
the components on the opposite side of the board invisible and unselectable.
