Re: OSX Nightlies Update

 

I'm working on the build of Garth's stuff.

I'm using
    lp:~gcorral/kicad/osx-trackpad-gestures
as mentioned in Nick's email below.

The wxPython build script (osx_build_wx.sh) is missing the do_patch for the
wxwidgets-3.0.2_macosx_yosemite.patch

Without it, the build for wxPython quits with the WKBackForwardList issue.

---------

In the build for wxPython (finished successfully), I noticed the
interesting lines below:

checking for --enable-macosx_arch... no

warning: wx_install: path file
'/Users/bobgus/KiCad-TP/osx-trackpad-gestures/../wx-bin/lib/python2.7/site-packages/wx-3.0-osx_cocoa.pth'
not created

These lines may not be a problem at all.

There were a number of warnings. But this is wxPython code - not KiCad.

Bobs-MacBook-Air:osx-trackpad-gestures bobgus$ grep ": warning:"
../wx_build02.out | wc
     393    4113   52451
Bobs-MacBook-Air:osx-trackpad-gestures bobgus$

I will continue with the build of Garth's branch later on tonight.

As many folks on this list have pointed out, a mousewheel is useful
for panning up and down. The OSX trackpad has this same usefulness,
but also includes left/right as well as up/down.

Pinch is a one dimensional gesture and it matches the one dimensional
zoom behavior.

However, these behaviors have to be implemented in the code. I will
try out the patches given below.

Thanks much

You should try out Garth's OS X trackpad patch, see the email thread

It will add another option to the properties window, where you can
enable this feature, and it probably make it better to use for some
people. I have tested it on linux and found no issues, although I use
the default mode which I like better (usually).

@Garth, is there any current issues with your patch that blocks merge?

2015-02-18 5:56 GMT+01:00 Bob Gustafson <bobgus@xxxxxxx>:
OK, View->default, I do see the scrollbars.
View->openGL and View->Cairo, I don't see scrollbars.

In all views, my trackpad (up-down or sideways) just controls the
zoom. No
panning.

What are the recommended settings for a built-in trackpad with one
clicker?

In GAL mode there are no scrollbars by design, it is not a Mac OS X
issue. Do users miss them?
Personally I'd never noticed there were scrollbars in the default
canvas,
let alone that they were missing in GAL mode...

A quick search on the bug tracker didn't turn up any complaints
about them
missing.

Bob: do you use the scrollbars because panning with the mousewheel
doesn't
work for you, or is it more out of habit?
