OK, got the problem :D

The 'new lib' thing associated with the somewhat byzantine fp-lib dialog
:P

The 'new lib' was a retrofit since the main library creation tool is/was
the 'archive footprints' in the file menu of pcbnew; the "master library
board" workflow is described in the manual... on the long run it pays
since it's often faster to 'look up' a part on the master board instead
of using the browser.

Thank you. I will study the "master library board" workflow in great detail.


Just curious, however: why calling the lib editor from the project
manager when it's on the pcbnew toolbar?


Just hadn't noticed that it's there. Thanks.
