Hi,

This is to report that in Electric 9.06, I have a normal cursor.  If I click in the top menu, File->Preferences..., select Categories->General->Selection, and check the box for "Routing mode (cannot change connectivity)", the cursor changes (showing an R) when I click OK.  I assume that it changes to this R cursor to indicate that it is in the disabled routing mode.  However, unchecking the box for "Routing mode (cannot change connectivity)" and clicking OK (or Apply) does not return it to the normal cursor.  Is this a bug?

(Closing and reopening Electric 9.06 can restore the normal cursor.) 

Thanks,

Gavin

Thanks for the bug report. The fix is simple, and is now in the source-code repository.

In the module "com.sun.electric.tool.user.dialogs.options.SelectionTab.java", setRoutingMode() must be called before setCursorMode().
