Re: [RFC] proposal of adjusted netlist dialog

 

Hi

I think the new logic arrangement as you have showd do indeed make it
less confusing, not that it was a BIG problem before, but none the
less a UI problem. I think this should be committed, unless I have
missed something. I did not mind the tabs, but I see your point with
the combobox. I am only speaking from a user perspective.
