Re: [PATCH] Hotkey edit dialog filter + fixes

 

Hi Wayne,

I was only planning to make changes to the list dialog (as opposed to
the editor dialog) in the master branch. I'm not planning to backport
any of the filter stuff to 5.0.1.

The aim is to check off https://bugs.launchpad.net/kicad/+bug/1778374
(Wishlist: add search box to Help --> List Hotkeys menu), which is
milestoned for 5.1.

The patches just merged would provide good groundwork for that (even
if the list dialog used totally different widgets, the underlying
HOTKEY_STORE would be re-usable), but don't actually complete that
bug.

Cheers,

John
