LDCad 1.0 (win+linux)

[Roland Melkert]

Thanks for your thoughts, I added some answers/comments below

I really like the 6 tabs at the top to save my parts groups although I would like maybe 10 in total.

I picked 6 because the average human is said to have an 6 or 7 item short term memory. It also fits nice with the bin width, but I could make it an option in future versions.

If you add more views please leave this as an option.

Splitting will be completely optional in 1.1.

I don't like however how the actions are opposite when I am moving items with the movement controls below the parts vs above the parts. They should simply go in the direction I am moving the mouse. It seems as though the controls don't know if they are upside down or not.

It took me some time to figure out what you mean but I did. The editing pin switches sides as soon it doesn't point towards the viewer. This usually also means you can't reach the 'below' of the e.g. arrows, but based on your report I discovered there is a very small angle/window where you can reach it indeed. Although this technically a bug, it was never ment to be possible in the first place, meaning when the pin is below the part the view is in such a way you will always click on the top of the controls. I will try to fix the inversion or prevent that small window from happening all together.

My only real dislike I guess is navigating the menus. I tend to get lost within and it usually takes me a bit to find what I am looking for.

I'm not totally happy with the menu's myself, if you (or anyone else) has suggestions on how to reorganize it don't hesitate to let me know your ideas.

Anyways, if I haven't said it before, Thank You.

Thanks
