  • Ticket #4347 – Description

    initial v1  
    88When starting a connection (by clicking and dragging) the user will already (roughly) point in the right direction e.g. 10 pixels up and 3 pixels left). By figuring out that amount and checking which is the most dominant one, the initial connection X/Y mode could be initiated properly.
    99
     10Another possibility is to update the x/y mode continuously until the first corner is set. So assume the start is at 0/0 and the mouse is at (10,3) then OMEdit is in y-fixed mode. If the mouse is moved (without clicking) to (10,23) then OMEdit switches to x-fixed mode.
     11
     12A further possibility is to allow manual switching of the mode by hitting the space bar. This is the default behavior in Eagle (a PCB layout program).
     13
     14After this x and y mode is alternating.

    1016I really hope that this idea helps :D
