Dragging parts without messing the traces

It’s clear now that it cannot be done, but would be nice to have this feature in the next rev.

I’ve figured out a little more about this. When I said it was only picking up a single track with the footprint the answer was pretty obvious. It was because my working copper layer was the same side as the tracks which were picked. Tracks on the non-active side are ignored. If all of the tracks are on the same side then it will in fact move all of them with the footprint.

We’re halfway there. It would be a nice feature to be able to select both copper layers, or a selection if there are more than two, to be activated with this function. It is in fact almost already there programmatically.
