Here is a bit more detail: * Move pin type dialog into the non-modal object properties dialog * Move the slot edit dialog into the non-modal object properties dialog * Make the single attribute editor non-modal * Dock the dialogs on the right side of the schematic editor with tabs to select * Object Properties * Text Properties * Single Attribute editor * Add a notebook for all the open schematic pages Here are some unknowns: * What to do with the message dialog? * What to do with the show text dialog? * What to do with the hide text dialog? * What to do with the page manager? I’ve already converted the find text dialog into a GtkInfoBar and that is in source control now. Ed
