Pin editor in LibEdit trying to edit a wrong pin

[Kerusey Karyu]

Version affected: (2012-04-13 BZR 3511)-testing
Application: Eeschema, Library editor
Version: (2012-04-13 BZR 3511)-testing
Build: KiCad WinBuilder (BZR14) by Brian Sidebotham
OS: Windows 7 HP SP1, 32-bit

I noticed two strange behaviors of the Eeschema library editor.

First. Last edited pin was the pin number 3. The next pin is to be edited is pin number 4. The cursor is on pin 4 and I'm pressing the E shortcut to edit this pin. But LibEdit persistently wants to edit a pin number 3!
To workaroud this behavior I need to save changes and continue editing.
This happens intermittently.

Second. The validator or formatter of "Pin Length" input field writes an extra inch sybmol ( " ) at the end.

I am unable to reproduce the first issue.
Second issue is now fixed.

I wanna go back to this bug, because I finally found a standing scenario to reproduce first issue.

1. Open Eeschema library editor.
2. Create new symbol.
3. Put some pins, for example 4 pins. Place pins one by one and assign a numbers for them as: 1, 2, 3, 4.
4. Put cursor over the pin 1. Press E (Edit) and edit pin length and number text size.
5. Keep cursor over pin no. 1, right click and use Globals commands, trying to copy current pin length and number text size to other pins.
6. Move cursor to another pin, for example no. 3. Press E (Edit). You can see that you edit pin no. 3. It's OK, so cancel modal window.
7. Move cursor to another pin, for example no. 2. Press E (Edit). First incorrect behavior. *You still edit pin no. 3.* You can move cursor to any other pins, and try to edit them by E key, but pin 3 still "keeps focus".

Now three endings of scenario with other behaviors that I have seen:
-I-
8. Now back cursor over pin no. 1. Press M (Move), and move this pin to a different location.
9. Refresh the screen. You moved pin no. 1, but rest of pins are overlapped in pin 3 location.

-II-
8. Back cursor to pin no. 1. Press M (Move). Nothing happens. You cannot move pins.

-III-
8. Back cursor to pin no. 1. Right click and select Move command. You are moving pin no. 3 instead of pin no. 1.

First issue sounds like a duplicate of https://bugs.launchpad.net/kicad/+bug/778973 which is fixed.
