Snap Grid Bugs

Sorry also forgot to mention it happened on Fedora too before I switched to Ubuntu in the hope it might go away.

Apologies for the delay, I have been trying to diagnose the source of this problem but still with no luck. What is can say so far is as follows. There is various instability when using XtrkCad with my (stock Linux) configuration In XtrkCAD it varies from refesh delays, to crashes, to mouse delays, to over sensitive mouse movement, etc I do not experience it in any other softeare installed on the machine When I change from Wayland back to X the crashes (esp when using parallel track and move/rotate...

My comment has been taken too literally. The point I was trying to make was you have dependencies on other libraries (e.g. GTK, Qt, whatever). You are the experts in your own system, not me, i'm just a very regular user. Ref the >90% failure (<10% success) comment. You have not read properly what I said before in this thread. I said the parallel/offset function does not work at least 90% (<10% success) of the time. If you are trying to build track (using parallel track), and then and scenery, platforms,...

That is the procedure I always follow. I use this software for multiple hours a day. Tis is not some random occurrence. It is the most frustrating bug on it I have seen for many years. My observations are. i) When using applications outside XtrkCAD, I take my hand off the mouse and the cursor stays still ii) When using XtrkCAD the mouse is hyper sensitive. When I take my hand off if moves far enough to take it off the bottom bar. Absolute minimum of 90% failure rate. In summary, something in XtrKCAD...

Can also confirm the problem occurs on a fresh install of Ubuntu 22.04.5. This is not a Fedora specific issue. Also not sure if you are aware but like the original Fedora build you also have a bad compile for the deb verion of 5.3.0. It has missing dependencies which make both apt and dpkg -i fail. this is testing on a clean brand new version of Ubuntu 22.04.5.

Dave, I don't think you understand what is going on. You mention that you need to know when someone has completed their input. That's fine, but the problem is the software is not allowing what you say to happen. It is reacting too quick before people have had a chance to type values in a box. This is not the only example. At least two others below. a) In the Font size box, you get those size warnings up before you have even had a chance to finish typing in the value you want. b) When changing the...
