Cannot use any tools

[Michael Ambrose]

On arch linux with commit r604.dae9cbb-1 and python-matplotlib 3.1.1-1 I cannot use any tools. In the console there is a log entry stating "No active tool to respond to click!".

‌

After some poking around I noticed that https://bitbucket.org/jpcgt/flatcam/src/dae9cbb0471e693b95fd809ddd8bf11ff026ac67/FlatCAMDraw.py#lines-1019 is trying to match event.button to 1 but the object in the event is of type MouseButton.LEFT

I’m not a python expert so I’m surprised that as an enum it still wouldn’t match an int of 1. Does this need to be explicitly type cast now?

‌

I can get everything to work as expected by changing the 1 on line 1019 to MouseButton.LEFT and importing MouseButton with from matplotlib.backend_bases import MouseButton

Like this:

if self.active_tool is not None and event.button == 1:
