Hi there,
many thanks for this great toll to discover the world of logic electronics.

One wish I have for the moment is an option to align selected objects to the left, right, top, bottom, horizontal center or vertical center of a reference object.

So one object could be used as the reference to align others to the same left or top line or vice versa. Just to save some time when working or bigger designs.

Click on the reference object to select this + then hold CTRL key and select the objects that shall follow the position of the reference.
Release CTRL and select(click) the preferred align option with the mouse. Then these objects shall move the selected way.

Once more, thanks for your impressive work.
Matt

May I ask for another improvement please?
It would be great to have an option to copy the truthtable to the circuit for doing prints.

Hi Matt,
Thanks for the suggestions.
I will try to implement the alignments, but it's better to keep your circuits small. They are more readable and easier to understand and verify.
As for copy of the truth table you can do right now. Just select all the content and hit Ctrl-C. To select you can press Ctrl-A. Pretty much like in any other applications.
However, if you want to decorate the table with borders or what not you will need to paste it in excel and do your thing and then back to text note in LC.
Hope this helps,
Eugene

Hi Eugene,
many thanks for your reply and the hints how to get the truthtable into the diagram. With this workaround its possible indeed.
If you recommend to keep the circuits small, is there a limitation of logic objects per page that will affect the result on a larger circuit?
I appreciate your work a lot.

Matt

Hi Matt,
There are no any limitations or performance penalties on the size of individual circuit. The only consideration you should have is how easy to understand and observe your design.
