Detailed Description

Unlocking/locking elements plug-in for PCB.

Author:

Copyright (C) 2008, 2009 by Bert Timmerman <bert.timmerman@xs4all.nl>

Function to lock all or a selection of PCB elements.
Locked elements can all be unlocked in the same instance.

Compile like this:

gcc -Ipath/to/pcb/src -Ipath/to/pcb -O2 -shared lockelements.c -o lockelements.so

The resulting lockelements.so file should go in $HOME/.pcb/plugins/

Warning:

Be very strict in compiling this plug-in against the exact pcb sources you compiled/installed the pcb executable (i.e. src/pcb) with.

Usage: LockElements([Selected|All])
Usage: UnlockElements(All)

If no argument is passed, no locking/unlocking of elements is carried out.

Bug:

When locking a selection of elements, it is not easy to unselect the selection since those elements and their pins/pads/elementlines/elementarcs are now locked ;)
This may be thought of as understandable at first, but may also be considered to be a bug in pcb.
