Re: pcbnew: OS X cursor shape cannot be changed in any of the view

 

The screen shots are in GAL mode. I just confirmed now that the default
mode does not work - only a pen cursor. The Cairo mode does work, but is
slow.

I used Adam's latest OSX debug nightly build.

The crosshairs still work as I used them in the past:

Using tutorial here:

The two screen shots attached show the crosshairs cursor window wide
and short

I am on a 5796 right now and it neither works in eeschema nor in
pcbnew both in default and GAL canvas.
In GAL canvas the toolbar button even doesn’t toggle correct, it
always as unselected.
In eeschema and pcbnew default canvas it does toggle, but that
doesn’t change anything.

This is with my own builds (stock plus Garths panning changes).
I have some older ones I could also check, but as I said… I think it
never worked for me.

There was a change in rev 5827 [1] by orson that added it to the GAL
canvas. Maybe this commit broke it for OS X?

Could you try a build from before that commit and verify that it
actually worked at that time?

I am using Adam’s nightly build.

I tried this on the three view modes, and result is the same. The
cursor shape is always the default system cursor, I cannot find a
way to have a large crosshair like it used to be available.

Is that planned?
