Re: OSX: pcbnew comboboxes not working?
Hi Bernhard,
I second that annoying issue in OS X.
I had already reported that odd behavior several weeks ago, but nobody even acknowledged it.
It is really annoying, and I do not understand why it is an OS X only issue.
Hopefully, someone will see the light, and fix it.
Best regards,
Jean-Paul
