I have managed to get almost everything I want from Electric working
correctly now. Very nice tool! Now I have a small problem but annoying
nonetheless. I have configured my colors to my liking and saved all
options. Yet every time I reopen the file of interest, the colors are back
to default. I have tried changing the technology itself but I am only
allowed to pick overlappable1-5 and cannot choose to have, say, me1 as
overlappable in blue. (Am I just missing this?). I change all the colors
in the Windows->Color Options->Edit Colors... menu. But after done
viewing etc, and I attempt to quit Electric, I am always presented with a
dialog offering to let me save my options. I do so every time but always
when I restart Electric I must reset all the colors again. Like I said,
not terrible but a little annoying.
Thank you for your help. I will of course provide more detail if necessary.
This is a bug. To fix it, edit "src/usr/usr.c" and find the module
"us_do3init()". In that module is the line:
us_getcolormap(el_curtech, COLORSDEFAULT, FALSE);
This line of code must be moved UP in the module so that it comes before
reading of the options library. Therefore, place it BEFORE this line of code:
libname = us_tempoptionslibraryname();
