pcb-rnd - the [cycdrag] patches

- -A long standing misfeature of pcb (and pcb-rnd) has been that when dragging the -end of connected traces, pcb chosen one of the traces "randomly". It often -didn't pick the one the user wanted to move. The workaround was to move the -one that pcb picked and then return and move the target trace then -move the other trace back. This gets even more annoying if there are more than -two objects connected in the given point: 3 traces and a via for example. -

-The cycdrag patch addresses this issue by defining an action that can cycle -through objects that could be dragged in the given point while the left mouse -button is pressed. This lets the user explicitly select the one object to -work on. -

-This demo video -demonstrates how it works with three lines and a via. - -
