Hi,
I work in mm.
I'm am trying to create my first symbol and footprint. Noticed that I was
unable to change my grid settings from mils to mm anywhere within the
Symbol Editor. Slightly phased, I dropped back into Schema to verify an
note an equivalent mils dimension to make sure my new component was
proportionality the same as other components I had.
Back in EeShema, I am now unable to make any change to the grid settings no
right click, menu option or toolbar responds to change.
For completeness I am still able to change grid settings within Pcbnew
Wishlist :- Is it possible to have a proper 'Wishlist' or 'New Feature'
request in Launchpad. I feel bad posting in a developers 'space' without it
being a bug report.
Thanks
