Make Pcbnew and Eeschema display 'Preferences' panels in the same order
Make Pcbnew and Eeschema display 'Preferences' panels in the same order.
Description
If you have both Eeschema and Pcbnew open at the same time from Kicad and then open the "Preferences" dialog, you'll see that the first three entries of each program in the tree are the same, but they are in a different order:
They should look like this instead:
This doesn't make the program run any better. It just improves the UI experience a little by increasing consistency.
I've pushed a Merge Request for this: !339 (merged)
Steps to reproduce
- Open Pcbnew and Eeschema at the same time from Kicad.
- Open the "Preferences" dialog and observe that the the first 3 entries of each program are in a different order in the tree. See pictures above.
