Re: Component Properties box pops up when you left click

So turned out to be my mouse. Cant believe it didnt notice it in any other program and it happened as soon as i changed to the new version. Lol went back and checked it in ver 3 and it acted up the same as ver 4.

Re: 2.1.0.5 and 2.1.9 on same machine

Thanks , that seemed to worked. I notice in the beta the W - switch layer key doesn't switch layers and in one mode, edit trace i believe, brings up a window with line widths.

2.1.0.5 and 2.1.9 on same machine

I have a need for slotted pads on 1 project which I see the new 2.1.9 beta supports. I currently have 2.1.0.5 on the machine and read someplace that if you use 2.1.9 you can't go back and use 2.1.0.5. Can I install both on the same XP machine?

Thanks
