Hi Orson,

The patches for adjusting the pad too menu enablements (points 2 and 4
in JP's original email) are on this branch:

https://git.launchpad.net/~john-j-beard/kicad branch pad_menus

I added a function for the menus to check if they have any enabled
items and used it to only put the PAD_TOOL menu in the main context
menu if there are enabled items. Do you think that approch makes
sense?

Cheers,

John
