(...) Well I think that would be a good thing, I was under the impression that the goal of LCD was to allow modelling programs to help the user properly *place* the parts, not ness. remembering the connections. But maybe I'm missing something. If (...) (23 years ago, 31-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) No, distinctly fun, but weird. :-) I would want it to crank through all the possible ways to use a connection type... But please note that this usage is a side path... the main utility is in "snap" behaviour. MLCad snapgrid, for instance, is (...) (23 years ago, 31-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
