Is there any hotkey or some way to avoid the severely insane routing options Kicad tends to “fall into”? I did look, and I did try Change track posture
but it only acts on minor path changes, while accidentally crossing over some other obstructing track will see it “fall into” possibly the longest tracing option possible and one has to go back to the originating pad OR give up (ESC and undo a bunch) to try again.
I am loving kicad, however some tracks can take a long time to lay down. Imagine if kicad router were used for driving directions :o Or imagine if Google Map type “pick your route from these fine options” (swapping track length for congestion?) were available in kicad? From a Usability perspective, that would relieve the pressure on mouse (trackpad, in my case) movement and potentially make Kicad a lot more Accessible.
