gEDA-user: PCB - dragging tracks at 45 degrees
Hi,
I am using PCB and I would like to thank you all for such a great
package.
I have a question about moving tracks. When I place tracks using the
"line" tool they are automatically limited to 45 degree angles, which I
like.
However when I click on the "select" tool and use a left click to move
the tracks around the tracks are not limited to 45 degree angles, which
means I spend a lot of time re-aligning tracks to get the 45 degree
angles I want. As I am laying out a board with lots of SMD devices I am
using a 5 mil grid which means the number of possible angles is quite
large.
Is there a way to move/drag tracks that limits the track angles to 45
degrees? I have a feeling I am using PCB the wrong way and there must
be an "ah-ha" here somewhere to make moving tracks around easier :-)
Thanks,
David
