Is it correct that the push and shove will come at the 3.3 release?
Not yet. 3.3 beta is similar to 3.3 release
I have one other issue.
I mostly work under Linux with Wine and when I try to select a sheet template the program crashes.
I do think this is a Wine issue, but is there otherwise a workaround?
This is known issue of Wine. Unfortunately we can not find work-around yet.

So the push and shove will be in version 3.4 or so?

Yes, it is in process, but not ready yet. Partially it is included in 3.3 as follow rules feature, but push traces which doesn't work as expected yet is hidden.

We will publish 3.3 release at Monday-Tuesday next week for Mac too.

I do not know if i have done something wrong, or if this error is helpful with development.

I performed eagle export on the "ubraidsII.dch" file here.

https://github.com/jakplugg/uBraidsII

the board file seems to open properly, but the schematic has a fatal error "line 5936, column 11: gate 'PART_A' of part 'IC9' already used'

(eagle version i exported are also in that github repo)

cheers!

Hi Stas
Some minor features i want to say.
1- When click a track with edit track mode, it draws track with default width. I think this will be more seful if it continue with tracks width that being edited.
2- Routing by arrow keys on numeric part of keyboard while manual routing.
Maybe these are easy to add to version 3.3

I will move 2 to to-do, but not to 3.3 yet as we plan to release 3.3 at Monday-Tuesday and it is already quite stable for release (any feature change may add bugs).
1. Do you mean route manual mode when start from current trace? I suppose it should be the width you define on the route panel, but not the width of trace you start from.

Thank you for the report. I have the same problem if I load schematic in Eagle. We will check Eagle export.
