Re: [PATCH] eeschema: add Select button for footprints in single component field edits

 

Sorry, I didn't get much chance to look at it - but I liked the idea
of it - I think this is one of the very reasons behind the KiWay work.
It's certainly a bonus of that work which we should be reaping.

I didn't get a chance to apply and test though. Let me know if you need that.

Best Regards,

Brian.
