Re: [OT-ish] Rotate while moving?

 

I thought I did that...but it looks like I did it incorrectly / incompletely.

Anyhow, now I have some merge conflicts to resolve.  I'll be back when I have news.

Thanks,
-Brian

    No dice in pcbnew.  I probably forgot to mention that, too.  The
    problem is in pcbnew.  I take it this is supposed to work?  I
    notice that it does work as I expect in eeschema (I can rotate
    with "R" in the middle of a move).
