Hoping you meant for this to go to the list.

Fair enough.  Though it would be nice if one could simply navigate through the markers (if they were produced for all violations) on the board without need for the list.  With some way to produce the text there, perhaps a tooltip or somesuch.

Unfortunately, as hinted at in the bug filed, the underlying issue here is likely yet another case of OS X being the red-headed stepchild in wxWidgets.  In this case it can probably be worked around in KiCad.  I think the issue that Bernhard is looking at is another case of an OS X specific wxWidgets issue, but in that case I don’t have much confidence it can addressed in KiCad.  I hope I’m wrong.

How could you resist, it’s begging for it.
