Thanks for your continued updating to ktechlab.
I didn't see this email until now, as I was abroad. I will see if I can test some of the fixes.
Regards,
Claus

Hi,
I have pushed a new set of fixes to github:
https://github.com/ktechlab/ktechlab-0.3/tree/port-0.3.8-kde4-v1
- The circuit redrawing / scrolling issues should be mostly fixed. Zooming in and out should mostly work. This means that now circuits bigger than the window should be usable. No warnings should appear in the terminal from Qt, about widget drawing.
Feel free to test, any feedback is welcome.
I'm sending below the list of remaining things to be fixed.
- created subcircuits appear twice in the subcircuit list, and in some cases they cause crashes; investigation needed- (from Claus) There are some other gfx glitches, but that might be because I run it in a virtual machine - didn't have them on the previous builds though. - needs checking- Gfx error on e.g. LED in that I can't connect a wire unless I rotate the part.- some components get their connectors moved, thus (1) graphical issues, (2) impossibility of connecting connectors results- Som gfx errors that leaves gaps at connection points on components. (see last email with attached screen shot)-'Scope works well, but doesn't clear 'lines' from other circuits when they are closed. (Y-axis scale would be nice)-I think the 'scope just keeps filling data points into RAM, because RAM usage climbs steadily until the virtual machine crashes (same as the kde3 version)- components have no description - the context help exists; or something else is needed here?And the issues from the TODO file:Features needs re-implementation at Qt4 port=======- dbus integration for documents (used to be dcop bindings for documents)- undo / redo interface needs to be fixed for text documents: this interface is not exported by KDE4 KTextEditor http://api.kde.org/4.10-api/kdelibs-apidocs/interfaces/ktexteditor/html/kte_port_to_kde4.html- printing a text document needs fixing

Alan, thanks for the information. I just had to review the digital
simulation part, because there is an issue related to it:
https://github.com/ktechlab/ktechlab/issues/29
I hope it is just a display problem. The digital simulation is running
100 times faster than the analog, but there is also some Chains
involved in the simulation, and their role is not clear for me.
