Re: hard crash with pcbnew

 

Hi Garth,

If I recall correctly there were issues on other platforms, but I guess
it is not the case anymore, so if Wayne does not mind - I will merge
them. Personally, I do not mind applying the patch if it does not break
anything, especially if OS X users find it useful.

I borrowed a Macbook only for a weekend to fix GAL issues, so I cannot
test your patch now, but I trust our users. I would offer you to test
patches on Linux/Windows, but I see that all changes are surrounded with
#ifdefs, so I would not experience any difference anyway.

Scrollbars are not a problem, as I did not manage to enable them for OS
X in GAL canvas.

Regards,
Orson

I committed this separately from the rest of the stuff on my branch because it can stand on it’s own, and is completely conditional so it won’t touch anything else.  It might not be as useful without the other stuff on the branch, but at least folks can compile in proper pinch zooming for their Mac trackpads if they desire.

It requires yet another wxWidgets patch, which is included in that diff.  I think there might be a conflict due to my disabling scrollbars on my branch, but you can do as you wish with that.

In OpenGL mode, it seems to get confused about menus, or something. It happens if I right-click to do something. I am not exactly sure what conditions cause it.
