So we need some listview similar to a spreadsheet which can display all floating text. (yes I know, there was a separate tool available, something like gatrib) For this again I have some problems with multiline text. Maybe I should temporary split multiline text to multiple single line text elements? But than I have to restrict individual position movement. Multiline text gives me indeed some headache, and I think that gschem handles it not perfect too.
