+The stroke plugin uses libstroke to recognize mouse gestures. By the +default menu config gestures are recognized while the right mouse button +is pressed and the mouse is moved. If no movement happened between press +and release or the gesture is not recognized, the context menu is open. +
+What gestures are recognized and what actions are executed for them are +all configured in stroke.conf. The default configuration coming with the +plugin defines the gestures listed in the table below. Please note: it is +important to start the gesture at the specific point relative to the +subsequent coordinates of the gesture; for example the rotation gestures +always need to start at the bottom. +
+
| gesture drawing | action taken + |
|---|---|
| | switch to line drawing mode + |
| | switch to arrow mode + |
| | stop drawing a line, polygon contour or polygon hole + |
| | switch to via placing mode + |
| | rotate the object under the cursor 90 degrees clock-wise + |
| | rotate the object under the cursor 90 degrees counter-clock-wise + |
| | undo an operation + |
| | redo an operation + |
| | zoom to extent (all-board view) + |
| | zoom in to the area between the endpoints of the gesture + |
+The stroke plugin is compiled only if (the development package of) +libstroke is installed. Any gesture recognition takes place only if +editor/enable_stroke is set to true (e.g. "1"). +
+The gestures are configured as an ordered list of +dial-pad-sequence={pcb-rnd-actions} under plugins/stroke/gestures. +Only the first match is executed; this allows the user to override default +gestures from user or project or design config. + + + Index: doc/user/06_feature/stroke/line.svg =================================================================== --- doc/user/06_feature/stroke/line.svg (nonexistent) +++ doc/user/06_feature/stroke/line.svg (revision 16902) @@ -0,0 +1,115 @@ + + + + Index: doc/user/06_feature/stroke/redo.svg =================================================================== --- doc/user/06_feature/stroke/redo.svg (nonexistent) +++ doc/user/06_feature/stroke/redo.svg (revision 16902) @@ -0,0 +1,121 @@ + + + + Index: doc/user/06_feature/stroke/rotccw.svg =================================================================== --- doc/user/06_feature/stroke/rotccw.svg (nonexistent) +++ doc/user/06_feature/stroke/rotccw.svg (revision 16902) @@ -0,0 +1,116 @@ + + + + Index: doc/user/06_feature/stroke/rotcw.svg =================================================================== --- doc/user/06_feature/stroke/rotcw.svg (nonexistent) +++ doc/user/06_feature/stroke/rotcw.svg (revision 16902) @@ -0,0 +1,116 @@ + + + + Index: doc/user/06_feature/stroke/stopline.svg =================================================================== --- doc/user/06_feature/stroke/stopline.svg (nonexistent) +++ doc/user/06_feature/stroke/stopline.svg (revision 16902) @@ -0,0 +1,115 @@ + + + + Index: doc/user/06_feature/stroke/undo.svg =================================================================== --- doc/user/06_feature/stroke/undo.svg (nonexistent) +++ doc/user/06_feature/stroke/undo.svg (revision 16902) @@ -0,0 +1,103 @@ + + + + Index: doc/user/06_feature/stroke/via.svg =================================================================== --- doc/user/06_feature/stroke/via.svg (nonexistent) +++ doc/user/06_feature/stroke/via.svg (revision 16902) @@ -0,0 +1,120 @@ + + + + Index: doc/user/06_feature/stroke/zoom_ext.svg =================================================================== --- doc/user/06_feature/stroke/zoom_ext.svg (nonexistent) +++ doc/user/06_feature/stroke/zoom_ext.svg (revision 16902) @@ -0,0 +1,101 @@ + + + + Index: doc/user/06_feature/stroke/zoom_in.svg =================================================================== --- doc/user/06_feature/stroke/zoom_in.svg (nonexistent) +++ doc/user/06_feature/stroke/zoom_in.svg (revision 16902) @@ -0,0 +1,102 @@ + + + +
