fp viewer uses the default colors, because it has no color setup dialog.
class_colors_design_settings: remove not used members.
Fix issue in modedit: the color config was never read.
Before the change, the plugins had to be installed to one of the default
search paths, but it should not be necessary for developers working on
3D viewer plugins.
This was due to a missing initialization of the dummy board color settings (used to draw the footprint in the 3D view).
Fixes: lp:1708712
https://bugs.launchpad.net/kicad/+bug/1708712
bitmaps.h was included in nearly every file in the project due to it
being included by base_struct.h
Only about 130 files actually use the XPM definitions defined there, and
many of those already included bitmaps.h themselves, or via
menu_helpers.h. However, touching bitmaps.h would result in over 400
rebuilt files for pcbnew alone.
This commit moves the bitmap-related types like BITMAT_DEF out to a new
header, which is still included by base_struct.h, which is less
avoidable for now, it's it's used in the interface.
The icon list is still in bitmaps.h. This has the side effect that's
it's now easier to automatically generate this file.
Many classes in pcbnew and eeschema needed some functions moved
to the implementaitons from the headers too.
* Split and rewrite the preview window and canvas.
* Create a new class for handling the board information.
* Adds new render targets: openGL, legacy, and ray tracing.
* Render targets take full advantage of the new 3D plugins system and 3D cache
for a fast 3D model loading.
* Faster board loading.
* New OpenGL render is faster than the old one.
* New ray tracing render target with a post processing shader.
* Use of new 3D plugins (WRL, X3D, STEP and IGES) and 3D model caching.
* Preview of 3D model while browsing the file name.
* 3D preview of the footprint while adding / align 3D shapes.
* Render of 3D models according to attributes: Normal, Normal+Insert, Virtual.
* Pivot rotation centered in one point over the PCB board.
* Shortcuts keys improved for XYZ orientation..
* Animated camera.
* Use platform cache path insted of the KiCad configuration path to write the
3D model cache.
* OSX: ${HOME}/Library/Caches/kicad/3d
* Linux: ${XDG_CACHE_HOME}/kicad/3d or ${HOME}/.cache/kicad/3d
* Windows: AppData\Local\kicad\3d
* Add a Help button and text to the 3D alias configuration dialog
* Display KISYS3DMOD and internally defined KiCad path env vars
* Add a button to bring up the "Configure Paths" (env vars) dialog
* Remove the file name mapping feature from the resolver; this results in
the resolver always using the current definition rather than a possibly
outdated cache value.
* Paths defined via pcbnew->Preferences->Configure Paths are now included in
the 3D file browser's drop-down list except for KICAD_PTEMPLATES, KIGITHUB,
KISYSMOD, any paths resembling a URL, and any non-existent paths. When an
absolute path is shortened using one of these path aliases, let's say
'KISYS3DMOD' then the name appears in the pcb file as "${KISYS3DMOD}/blah.wrl".
If a user defines and actual environment variable with the same name, then
that user defined variable will have precedence over the internally defined
variable.
* Paths relative to the current project directory are no longer represented
as "some/path/to/file.wrl". For compatibility with previous KiCad versions
it shall always be stored as ${KIPRJMOD}/some/path/to/file.wrl.
* Various restrictions on alias path values have been removed since the
imposed restrictions could result in corrupted user data as aliases are
silently dropped.
* Overall the patch should improve back-compatibility by providing a ${ENV_VAR}
mechanism for supporting different model root directories and ensuring that
paths relative to KIPRJMOD are expressed in a way that is compatible with
earlier KiCad versions. This allows users more flexibility and the ability
to work in a way that ensures 3D model files can be correctly resolved in
earlier versions of KiCad. Users who do not care about back-compatibility
may prefer to use the newer alias system.
