[SOLVED] 7.99 bug verification required

Software
1

Open a schematic in 7.99
Right mouse click
Select Grid
Click on any grid
Select Symbol editor or Browse symbol Libraries.

Symbol Editor or Browse Libraries opens behind Schematic Editor plus list of grids returns and persists on screen over any program.

Even this forum!

Sorry, Gitlab not working at the moment. Cannot check to see if the problem has been reported.

Similar thing happens with Custom Rules code completion.

I suppose the underlying problem is the same, how some wxWidgets widget is used. This may also be platform dependent (I, too, am using linux ATM).

…but I can’t replicate your situation!

Yet another place where code completion creates a permanent dropdown list is the python console.

I don’t think downgrading from 7.99 to 7.0.7 really means the problem is solved… Or do you mean it verificates the problem in 7.99?

Woops, wrong Kicad. :blush:
