Re: COMPONENT_TREE performance

 

Hi,

a bit of topic, but just out of curiosity… I tried to use “Component Table View” of eeschema recently in one of my projects - on macOS of course.

Nice to have a look at the parts, but apart from that not usable at all.
Most of the time I cannot enter something into the grid cells, I have to click wildly around to be able to enter something, or I can enter things but it isn’t applied correctly.
Or, it just crashes.

Is this also using this mysterious wxDataViewCtrl thing?
I didn’t have time yet to have a closer look what’s going on, I did put it on my list… :)


Regards,
Bernhard
