I would like to have the following behavior on the schematic editor :
When I click on a wire I want the whole wire to be selected, at least for deleting them. Instead it delete a segment of the wire.
I didn’t find the information online but if it’s possible for PCB too it would be helpful too.
Schematic: select one wire-segment → right-click (RMB) → context menu → Select whole connection
Board: two commands available: select one track-segment → RMB → context menu → Select → Expand connection OR Select all tracks in net
It’s possible to assign hotkeys to all these actions (look at global Preferences). The standard assignment is “ALT+4” for schematic and “U” for board->expand connection.
I will to a feature request to have a settings for this since it’s a bit of an odd behaviour from Kicad.
The meaning of this sentence is not 100% clear to me. Whats the odd behaviour - to delete only the selected wire-segment? (Should Kicad automatically delete the whole wire-connection?)
Also please try to get familiar with Kicad first. It’s not sensible to request something if you are still not accustomed to a tool - maybe it needs only some time to know which tools are available and how to use them. It’s also a good idea to read and work trough the documentation (for instance the getting-started-tutorial or the schematic-description): https://docs.kicad.org/
No one should expect that a new CAD-program (and the question shows that you are new to Kicad) works like his old CAD-tool.
Sorry I edited my sentence since it didn’t make a lot of sense.
I took a pause from kicad for two year since I work with a different program now. Rest assured I will not do any feature request until I’m not sure since I don’t want to waste developper time.
Deleting the whole wire connection make a lot of sense to me, often I want to place a new wire without have traces of the old one.
