Re: [PATCH] Kicad: project manager: Do not reconstruct entire project tree when renaming file to different dir
Scratch my last. It is GTK with the problems. When I rename the file to a
new directory with this patch, the tree never seems to update. I have to
manually refresh it in order for the file to appear in the correct place.
