* Ensure proper SCH_SHEET object page numbering which caused annotation to
calculate incorrect reference designators when annotating by using page offsets.
* Added SetPageNumbers to SCH_SHEET for setting sheet page numbers after
schematic is loaded.
* Move FindSheetByName() function from SCH_SHEEET_PATH to SCH_SHEET object
and update calls to FindSheetByName() accordingly.
* Remove SCH_SHEET_PATH::FindSheet() which was unused.
* Add sorting option to SCH_SHEET::GetSheets().
* Add const and non-const version of GetRootSheet() to SCH_SHEET.
* Add GetSheetPaths() function to SCH_SHEET which behaves the same way
as SCH_SHEET_LIST except it uses standard C++ containers and is a much
simpler design.
* The resource setting for bitmap2component is too late in the CMakeLists.txt,
and is being ignored. Bitmap2component does not have an icon resource on
Windows. Moving the entire section resolves the issue.
* The other programs only have the mingw special case listed, not the generic
declaration for the resource file so added them.
* Add function to get a list pointers to this sheet and all of it's sub-sheets
to SCH_SHEET.
* Remove unused function SetFootprintField() from SCH_SHEET_PATH.
This class wraps the comparison function in a way that is compatible with
std::map and std::set. This, too is generally useful, so it should be moved
to the generic header.
At the same time, the criterium for less-than is changed from "equal to -1"
to "smaller than 0", because technically the comparison function may return
other values.
* Add sheet number that is set by schematic file load order. This duplicates
the previous SCH_SHEET_PATH behavior.
* Uncouple SCH_REFERENCE and SCH_REFERENCE_LIST from SCH_SHEET_PATH.
* Add - operator to SCH_SHEET for comparison purposes. This duplicates the
behavior of SCH_SHEET_PATH::Cmp().
* Uncouple SCH_COMPONENT::GetRef() from SCH_SHEET_PATH and use SCH_SHEET
instead.
* Uncouple SCH_COMPONENT::GetUnitSelection() from SCH_SHEET_PATH and use
SCH_SHEET instead.
* Fix all calls to GetRef() and GetUnitSelection() to pass a pointer to the
appropriate SCH_SHEET object instead of an SCH_SHEET_PATH object.
* Use wxGrid to edit default fields in option dialog which allows user to
directly instead a separate edit panel.
* Implement TransferData{To,From}Window methods.
* fix minor coding style issues.
* remove unused member in modview_frame.
* use different frame names in ctor of modview_frame and viewlib_frame depending on the fact they are built modal or not modal (allowing identifications when calling wxFindWindowByName)
* change questionnable code in class_libentry.cpp.
* remove unused code in class_treeproject_item.cpp
Including the inline of the Output directory and its text field/browse button.
Moving the plot format to the left of the plot options as the plot options depend on the plot format.
* Create base class EDA_PATTERN_MATCH to hand multiple pattern matching methods.
* Create classes for regular expression and wildcard pattern matching.
* Add new pattern matching semantics to component select dialog.
* Thanks to Henner Zellar <h.zeller@acm.org> for improvments to the original patch.
In polygon calculations (combining polygons, fracture) the mode of calculation (fast or strictly simple polygon option) as no more a default value, because choosing the best mode is better to optimize the calculation time.
* Add code to SCH_SHEET object to clear annotation.
* Change SCH_COMPONENT::GetPath() to derive path from SCH_SHEET object instead
of SCH_SHEET_PATH object.
* Remove clear annotation code from SCH_SCREENS object.
* Make SCH_SHEET parent the SCH_SHEET object that loaded it. This preserves
the hierarchy when the schematic is loaded.
* Add function to SCH_SHEET to find the root sheet from any sheet in the
hierarchy.
* Add functions to SCH_SHEET to create the path and human readable paths for
any sheet without relying on the external SCH_SHEET_PATH object.
* Remove function LocatePathOfScreen from SCH_SHEET since it was not used
anywhere.
* Add human readable path to message panel information for SCH_SHEET.
* Set the name of the root sheet to "root" instead of the default generated
when a new SCH_SHEET is created.
* Set the empty sheet name and file name to "root" and "noname.sch" when
Eeschema is opened with no schematic.
* When no item is at the current position on a left mouse click, show the
current sheet information in the message panel.
* Add less than operator for sorting SCH_SHEET objects by path length and
time stamps when the path lengths are the same.
* Component doc: add https as prefix in list of urls which are opened by a Internet browser.
* Import .cmp files: Use "IdModule" instead of "IdModule =" as keyword for footprint name and use '=' only as separator.
2. Whole bunch of pointless casts removed
3. Unused variables removed
4. Fix bug caused by JP on April 25, 2015 where strings were adjusted for translation and the hotkeys section table accidentally swapped the footprint editor title with tag, resulting in "footprint editor" being exported instead of "[footprinteditor]"
No functional changes besides #4, technically it'll "break" imports hotkeys files but April 25 broke imports as well.
* Removed outdated package maker information, the pmdoc is generated and does
not belong in the KiCad tree, it is also highly specific as seen due to the
references to /Users/marco. This is not used in normal builds nor in the
packaging for KiCad OSX nightly builds.
* Updated identifiers in package marker docs to remove references to sourceforge
and to follow other identifiers.
Pcbnew: Plot files: for copper layers, create suffix from user copper layer names instead of default copper layer names, like in last stable Kicad version (bzr 4022), to build the plot files filenames.
Better test of illegal chars in plot filename, both in plot dialog and functions aclled by Python scripts.
Fix a Plotcontroller issue to make SetUseGerberExtensions() work as expected from Python scripts ( from Henner Zeller'patch with a fix to be sure it works properly from a Python script)
Note also using Protel Gerber Extensions is now a bad practice, because the official Gerber extension is .gbr since X2 Gerber version. But some users still use them)
* Make the about dialog help string consistent across all menus.
* Improve print preview window and print initialization error messages.
* The usual smattering of coding policy fixes.
* Only check for search cache update on close dialog event instead of every
update of the find/replace view which caused an infinite loop when replace
all was called.
* Check for dirty search cache for each find/replace event.
* Add code to save and restore last replace index on cache refresh.
* Rename Eda_FileSelector to EDA_FILE_SELECTOR.
* Add optional pointer to wxString to save the most recently used path to EDA_FILE_SELECTOR.
* Rename Eda_DirectorySelector to EDA_PATH_SELECTOR.
* Replace wxGetCwd() with wxStandardPaths::GetDocumentsDir(). This fixes the windows issue
where wxGetCwd() returns the path where the executable files are located.
* Add code to handle most recently used path to EDA_BASE_FRAME.
* Fix string formatting error in kicad/files-io.cpp.
* Remove setting and restoring current working directory when launching GerbView. Setting the CWD
has no effect on the launched executable which starts with it's own CWD.
* Allow project path to be passed to GerbView when launched from KiCad.
* Note: this is a work in progress. Do not expect every path and/or file selection dialog to properly
update the most recently used path. The correct solution to this problem requires a much more
well though out solution which will not happen until after the next stable release.
Fix a very minor issue about accelerator key in help menu: for "Eeschema Manual" of library browser it was "H". It is now "M" like in other help menus.
* Move color conflict checking code into TranferDataFromWindow so that it can be used in both the
OK and Apply button message handlers.
* Change Erc to ERC in text labels.
* Check for color conflicts and give the user the option to dismiss the changes before applying them.
* Add color conflict checking when apply button is pressed.
* Use default dialog size to allow sizers to set the initial size of the dialog.
* Enable CvPcb launching in stand alone mode.
* Enable footprint editor launching in stand alone mode.
* Remove some dead code left over from the change in CvPcb behavior.
* These changes were made for users who prefer to work in a less project-
centric work flow. KiCad should not be in the business of dictating
work flow whenever possible.
* Push center on zoom, use middle mouse button to pan, limit panning, and
pan while moving object settings from schematic editor to symbol library
editor and symbol library viewer child windows.
* Push center on zoom, use middle mouse button to pan, limit panning, and
pan while moving object settings from board editor to footprint library
editor and footprint library viewer child windows.
* Add code to allow each editing window it's own undo/redo count.
* Add code to allow for infinite undo/redo when count is set to 0.
* Add edit control to all editing windows general options dialog for
user configuration of undo/redo count.
* Add code to save and restore undo/redo count for each editing window.
* When multiple pins are in the same position and one is not connected,
show connection indicator correctly.
* LIB_PIN::IsVisible should be a const method so it can be called on
DANGLING_END_ITEM children without having to discard const.
* Test the (!IsVisible() && GetType() == PIN_POWER_IN) condition in a method
LIB_PIN::IsPowerConnection to avoid duplicating that condition if the test
needs to be performed in more than one place. (e.g. dunderheads like myself
might forget about the necessary GetType() == PIN_POWER_IN and just check
visibility.)
* Coding style fix: break a couple lines that were above the 99-column maximum.
* Add and/or improve Doxygen comments on SCH_COMPONENT::IsPinDanglingStateChanged
and SCH_COMPONENT::IsDanglingStateChanged.
- Slightly change the info text in the dialog. Add a definition of exactly what it means to "rescue" a component.
- Reload the project libraries when a project is opened, even if kicad is already running and the same project is open (to be sure the lib cache is up to date).
- Set the Modified flag on cancel, because a change has indeed been made (choosing not to rescue is equivalent to updating the components)
* Components with multiple "converts" were rendered with all of them overlapping instead
of just one.
* Schematics missing a -cache.lib resulted in unnecessary renaming suggestions.
* The dialog title "Conflicts Checking" is inaccurate now (as we're checking for more than
just conflicts) and also somewhat awkward, unidiomatic GUI English; I renamed it to
"Project Rescue Helper".
* Eliminate modal annotation warning dialog when generating a netlist fails
due to components that are not annotated.
* Add warning message to annotate dialog.
Fix also an issue on Windows, when using the footprint viewer or the component viewer in modal mode:
Reason: these frames (when run under the Kicad manager) have the Kicad manager as parent, and were built with wxFRAME_FLOAT_ON_PARENT style.
On windows, when the frame with style wxFRAME_FLOAT_ON_PARENT is displayed its parent frame is brought to the foreground, on the top of the calling frame.
and stays displayed when closing the frame in modal mode.
This issue does not happen on unix so we use now wxSTAY_ON_TOP on Windows, and wxFRAME_FLOAT_ON_PARENT on unix to simulate a dialog called by ShowModal.
This is not perfect, but at least it works.
* Change 'Silent mode' -> 'Always ask for confirmation'. Default on
(Same behavior as before, though arguably, it is very annoying and
should probably be default off)
* 'Automatically close dialog' -> 'Keep this dialog open'. Also changed
the default to _not_ keep the dialog open (what is keeping it open even
useful for ?)
* Change leave sheet hot key from back space to alt + back space. Note: for
some reason ctrl + back space did not work at least on windows.
* Add back space as delete node hot key which is consistent with the delete
track segment hot key in Pcbnew.
Now all are calculated using the top to bottom draw Y axis. This is perhaps not a good idea, but at least it will be easy to change, later.
Code cleaning relative to these bounding boxes.
* If a bus entry is drawn between two WIRES (not a wire and a bus, or two
buses), it looks like it's connecting the wires together, but doesn't
actually represent a connection. Display them as dangling in that case,
to make it clear to the user that a connection has not actually been made.
* Enable and disable save schematic button and menu entry depending on
modification status.
* Add toolbar and menu entries for leaving sheet.
* Enable and disable leave sheet menu entry and toolbar when in root sheet
or descended into the hierarchy.
* Add code to test for sheet path recursion to SCH_SHEET_PATH and SCH_SHEET_LIST.
* Add recursion tests to edit sheet code in Eeschema.
* Add recursion tests to block paste code in Eeschema.
* Remove global s_NetObjectslist.
* Separate out non-owning version of NETLIST_OBJECTS_LIST into NETLIST_OBJECTS.
* Fix double free pertaining to ~NETLIST_READER().
* Remove all file-io from CvPCB.
* Remove exe launcher cvpcb, retain only cvpcb.kiface, since cvpcb.kiface has no file i/o.
* Add void CVPCB_MAINFRAME::KiwayMailIn( KIWAY_EXPRESS& mail ) and teach it to use old
netlist loading code with a STRING_LINE_READER LINE_READER.
* Fix BEGIN_EVENT_TABLE( CVPCB_MAINFRAME, KIWAY_PLAYER )
Previously, acute angles (especially small angles) in zone outlines create incorrect shapes and sometimes strange shapes for clearance areas, when using generic algorithms.
This happens when zones outlines have "spikes", but not usually for smooth outlines.
* auto-save was broken for all sub sheets with are in a sub-directory of the project directory. (reason wxFileName::Normalize(), used to create the absolute path has issues with filenames starting by '$', perhaps due to env var which also start by $). the auto-save prefix is modified ( now AUTOSAVE_PREFIX_FILENAME which defines "_save_" ) and defined only once.
* auto-save files from sub-sheets were not found due to the fact the path was not set (fixed by Blair Bonnet's patch)
added the example gen_gerber_and_drill_files_board.py in demos, which shows how to do that.
Fix a Printf format issue (shown in Debug mode) in Libedit (%d used for a size_t, changed in %zu)
Fix a i18n issue in field names when loading a component, if the language was changed during a session, and kicad not restarted (see Bug #1448654).
However changing the language needs restarting kicad, in order to have all messages or menus translated.
* Add code to test if any of the components in the schematic cache have been changed
in the component libraries.
* Prompt user to accept or reject components when changes are found.
* If the user chooses to use the components in the cache, create a new library with the old
components and add it to the beginning of the component library list so the schematic will
not be changed.
* Create dialogs to handle user feedback and status.
* Use "Close" in the file menu of every main frame window instead of the
mismatch of the terms "Close", "Exit", and "Quit".
* Change the terminology in the Pcbnew graphic text edit dialog to match the
module text edit dialog.
* Improve the layout of the Pcbnew graphic text dialog.
* Fix some wxPrintf parameter type assertions for 64 bit time_t.
* Fix all (at least I think I got all of them) duplicate menu accelerator
characters.
Now these parameters are stored in user config, not project config ( they are not really related to a given project, they are just a setup during an edition),
and the schematic editor and the component editor have now separate parameters, because they are separate editors with different constraints.
component editor: repeat pin enhancement (from and idea of Edward Johns)
Previously, only the lib named "power" was used (and therefore power parts defined in other libs not shown).
Now, all power parts can be loaded from any library.
Also, when loading power parts from the chose component dialog or the lib viewer, libs and parts are filtered: only power parts and libs containing power parts are listed.
Hotkeys: move a few global strings in the files where ther are actually used (and make them local.) and code cleaning.
Fix a few other minor issues.
* The SCH_COLLECTOR m_foundItems was being obsoleted after a pin name search.
If a library edit changed the found pin name, the cache still held the now
missing library pin and would segfault on next search due to the cache being
out of date.
This is due to the fact static strings flagged translated ( _("string") notation) are not translated when they are static only if they are not inside a dll.
When they are static inside a dll, the dictionary is already loaded, and the constructor translate them.
Therefore they can be translated twice in dialogs are calling wxGetTranslation to show them, if the application is run from kicad.
But if the application is run as stand alone, the translation is made only once (as expected).
Fix minor 3D viewer issues (includling change number of segments and its optimization to draw pad holes.)
Fix Bug #1439132 (track and via list on toolbar not always refresh after loading a board).
Remove useless tool in Modedit.
* Add footprint and drop table from the Pcbnew footprint library table menu
entry to make it clear to new users.
* Add component to the Eeschema library configuration menu entry.
legacy plugin: better compatibility with old brd files (current track width and current vias size, stored in SETUP section, were not read from file and incorrectly set)
Eeschema now uses dashed lines for graphic lines (to be consistent with plot functions and toolbal icon).
Fix an old bug in some envionments which warp the mouse on a bad monitor when opening eeschema, pcbnew and some other windows, only noticeable guys who are lucky enough to have more than one monitor.
Move items rework: enhancements: for some items (sheets, components, bus entries) the mouse cursor is no more wrapped to the anchor. For large symbols, this is better: they are more easy to place.
There is also a change when starting a move item command: the full screen is redraw, and therefore there is no artifact due to the XOR draw mode.
Some other minor coverity fixes (uninitialized members).
* move not shared files (sch_item_struct.*, sch_base_frame.h) to eeschema;
* move wxEeschemaStruct.h to eeschema and rename it schframe.h to be consistent with the other corresponding file name schframe.cpp;
* remove few not needed #include
Rename eeschema/dialogs/dialog_sch_find.fbp to dialog_schematic_find_base.fbp, to be consistent with other dialogs.
Pcbnew run from the project manager: add menu Save Copy As..., which is the same command as Save As ... in stand alone mode, but with the constraints of a project (no cwd change, no board filename change, and keep project settings)
- the net file now has all project sheet title block using node 'sheets' and 'sheet'
- Updated bom_with_title_block_2_csv. Note, its only going to output the root title block.
- corrected the code that violated the code policy. i.e. added the extra space to make the code more readable
- Restored bom2csv.xsl to its original form
- Added bom_with_title_block_2_csv.xsl which has the new BOM generator.
For example:
- Company name
- Project title
- issue date
- Revision
- Comment 1 to 4
- updated bom2csv.xsl plugin to take advatage of the extra project information that the net file now outputs.
Overall this improvement will make it easier to automatically make controlled and traceable documents.
* Fix -Woverloaded-virtual warning in DIALOG_LIB_NEW_COMPONENT class
definition.
* Make EDA_ITEM::Matches( const wxString& wxFindReplaceData& ) protected
since it's a helper function that should only be called by derived objects.
* Check to see if image handler is already initialized to prevent warning
on debug builds.
* Change LIB_PART destructor message output to use wxLogDebug for debugging
on windows builds.
* Minor code cleaning and coding policy fixes.
* if the current select plugin is the github plugin, one can select some of these libraries and add them to the table
* if the current select plugin is the kicad plugin, one can select some of these libraries and download them to make alocal copy.
They can added to the table after they are downloaded.
* Make generate button the default in Eeschema netlist dialog.
* Fix spacing issues in export IDF dialog.
* Make OK button the default in export IDF dialog.
* Remove unnecessary end dialog code from export IDF dialog.
* Improve resizing of export IDF dialog.
* Change Read to Load in Pcbnew and Eeschema preference menus.
* Make electrical rules check status bar message the same for both the menu
and toolbar entries.
When the filename is not absolute, the page layout file is now searched first in project folder, and then in kicad template folder, if not found in project.
Fix issue when using a page layout file in project folder: eeschema and Pcbnew did not use it, unless using an absolute path.
Now, if the file path is nor absolute, it is seen as relative to the project (which is the expected behavior)
fp lib wizard: when pcbnew id compiled with USE_GITHUB_PLUGIN=OFF, the github plugin option is no more accessible (and the web viewer no more used).
BOM dialog: remove a not very useful button, and merge its function with an other (not perfect, need more work)
Add message box to show info added in BOM python scripts (See scripts/bom-in-python/README-bom.txt about this info)
* Make title capitalization consistant.
* Replace some instances of module with footprint.
* Use angle instead of orientation where appropriate.
* Remove abbreviations where it made sense.
* Coding policy fixes.
* Fix assertions in Eeschema when editing net labels, electronic rules check,
and plotting.
* Fix assertion when opening PCB calculator.
* Fix assertions in Pcbnew when changing footprints in footprint properties
dialog and adding or editing text.
steps to better support devices with precise scrolling deltas (trackpads).
Scrolling is done in the handler rather than creating and firing cmd events.
This is intended to support two-finger scrolling on the Magic Trackpad.
- Added a preference, 'Use mousewheel to pan', to allow panning by default
on mousewheel events. This reverses the existing behavior where unmodified
mousewheel zooms and Shift/Cmd modified pans.
The old behavior was:
- Unmodified scrollwheel performed zoom in/out
- Shift modified scrollwheel performed pan up/down
- Cmd modified scrollwheel performed pan left/right
- Shift+Cmd modified scrollwheel performed zoom in/out
with no cursor warp
With the new preference checked, this changes to:
- Unmodified scrollwheel performs pan up/down
- Shift modified scrollwheel performs pan left/right
- Cmd modified scrollwheel performs zoom in/out
- Shift+Cmd modified scrollwheel performs zoom in/out
with no cursor warp
With the preference unchecked, this is now:
- Unmodified scrollwheel performed zoom in/out
- Shift modified scrollwheel performed pan left/right
- Cmd modified scrollwheel performed pan up/down
- Shift+Cmd modified scrollwheel performed zoom in/out
with no cursor warp
It should be noted that for the last case, the behavior has changed.
This is not arbitrary. This now matches expected behavior for an OS X
application. This also matches what wxWidgets expects on this platform
as wxWidgets changes the axis of mousewheel events to horizontal when
the event is shift-modified.
The preference is added everwhere that mouse preferences previously
existed, i.e., eeschema, pcbnew and gerbview. The 3D Viewer does
not yet honor this preference, but behaves as if it was checked.
The pl_editor does not currently have any preferences to honor.
As with the magnify event support, this covers canvases for all
current tools, EDA_DRAW_PANEL, EDA_3D_CANVAS and EDA_DRAW_PANEL_GAL.
This does NOT modify the behavior of mousewheel zooming, though it
probably should. This remains unsuitable for use with a trackpad,
use pinch-to-zoom instead.
* Make all files generated by make_lexer() dependencies of thier respective build targets.
* Make building Boost a dependency for all libraries.
* Remove duplicate make_lexer() call for Specctra lexer files.
Rename "Switch highcontrast" to "Toggle High Contrast".
Eliminate most of the abbreviated hotkey titles.
Doxygenize dialog_hotkeys_editor.h and add missing license block.
Display <unassigned> if key code is 0 (NULL).
Refactor hotkey editor to use tab control instead of one giant list.
Each tab is a separate hotkey section.
Modify EDA_HOTKEY_CONFIG to change the m_Comment member to m_Title for a new purpose.
We want a pretty title in the hotkey editor. We use m_Title for the key export comment which
still conveys the purpose just as easily.
Refactored usage of wxGrid into wxListCtrl which allows capturing navigation characters
and also works better (single selection is built in).
Add hotkey overwrite prompts that are paired with "Common" section. It will check if a hotkey
overlaps with the proper sections. i.e. Common with the all other sections; or Section 1 with just Common.
Right-click menu removed due to wxListCtrl being able to catch the special keys properly.
* Include new field template editor
- Removes 10 template limitation
- Adds ability to set default value
- Adds ability to set default visibility
* Documentation to follow
* Tested in Linux (Ubuntu 14.04) + Windows, Windows has issue with displaying highlight for selected template, fix to follow
* Use the proper verb Annotate in the Annotate dialog for the action button
* Used the proper verb Generate in the Netlist dialog for the action button
* Fix ERC dialog title to be "Electrical Rules Checker".
* Fix all usages of "Erc" to "ERC" consistently in ERC dialog.
* Move action buttons to bottom of ERC dialog and change Del Markers to
Delete Markers.
* Add tooltips to ERC options matrix buttons to indicate their current state.
* Cleanup ERC options code that for some reason decided to delete the button
and recreate it instead of just updating it's bitmap directly.
* Rename "Test ERC" to "Run" to describe what it's actually doing properly
* Fix creation of single app bundle with respect to scripting support.
* Cleanup scripting search paths for OSX.
* Fix some small CMake bugs from previous OSX build change.
* Optimize bundle file structure to be consistent with Apple specs.
* Add helper script for compiling wxWidgets and wxPython
* Update OSX build instructions.
Fix dialog title to be "Electrical Rules Checker" to match everywhere else.
Fix all usages of "Erc" to "ERC" consistently.
Move action buttons to bottom of dialog, make Del Markers actually say Delete Markers.
Add tooltips to ERC options matrix buttons to indicate what their current state is, for newb friendliness.
Cleanup ERC options code that for some reason decided to delete the button and recreate it instead of just updating it's bitmap directly.
Rename "Test Erc" to "Run" because you are running ERC and not testing it.
Fix improper usage of SetLabel on a wxTextCtrl instead of SetValue so the ERC totals now work!
* Compile all binaries into a single application bundle.
* Use CMake BundleUtilities to make application bundle relocatable.
* Restructure build output to directly create an image file.
* Fix default search paths.
* Set KIGITHUB environment variable.
* Added patch to fix wxWidgets so names for OSX.
Schematic component properties dialog: add 2 helper buttons to manage the chip name (name of the corresponding part in lib)
- a browse button to chose an other chip name
- a test button, to know if the part exists. If not existing, list the parts found when searching using a case insensitive comparison.
However to be compatible with old versions of Eeschema, when a search in library fails, a case insensitive search is made.
Therefore, this version should be compatible with sch files created by previous Eeschema versions compiled with KICAD_KEEPCASE = OFF
* Add hot key handled return indicator to DRAW_FRAME::GeneralControl() and
DRAW_FRAME::OnHotKey() and all classed derived from DRAW_FRAME.
* Add code to all GeneralControl() and OnHotKey() functions to return true if
hot key was handled.
* Call event skip in DRAW_PANEL::OnKeyEvent() when key event is not handled to
allow default menu event handler to function properly.
* Fix Eeschema back annotation bug where footprint field visibility setting was ignored.
* Replace two confusing and ambiguous dialogs with a simple single choice dialog.
Ensure some values initialized by the schematic editor and used by libedit are also initialized in libedit even if the schematic editor was not started.
Remove useless commands (save/load project config) in libedit, because now they have no sense.
This fixes Bug #1360219 (Lost settings in eeschema) and keep separation between code relative to lib management and code relative to preferences.
2 or 3 minor settings could be lost in some designs, but they are very easy to reenter.
* Refresh canvas when user cancels edits so that the discarded sheet is
cleared from the schematic.
* Add file name validation to the sheet properties dialog to prevent
illegal file name characters from being entered into the text control.
* Rename FOOTPRINT_NAME_VALIDATOR to FILE_NAME_CHAR_VALIDATOR for clarity.
* Use clockwise and counterclockwise in menu strings which is less ambiguous than + and -.
* Moved the rotate hot key R to the rotate clockwise menu entry string.
* Patch Boost interlocked.hpp from version 1.56.
* Fix segfault in Eeschema when auto save event occurs before root sheet is initialized.
* Add assertion when SCH_SHEET_PATH::BuildSheetList is called with NULL pointer.
*) When kicad.exe closes a project, close any open KIFACEs so that they cannot
get disassociated from their true PROJECT.
*) Allow loading eeschema library editor from kicad.exe
*) Allow loading pcbnew library editor from kicad.exe
*) Rename LIB_COMPONENT to LIB_PART.
*) Add class PART_LIBS, and PART_LIB.
*) Make PART_LIBS non-global, i.e. PROJECT specific.
*) Implement "data on demand" for PART_LIBS
*) Implement "data on demand" for schematic SEARCH_STACK.
*) Use RSTRINGs to retain eeschema editor's notion of last library and part being edited.
*) Get rid of library search on every SCH_COMPONENT::Draw() call, instead use
a weak pointer.
*) Remove all chdir() calls so projects don't need to be CWD.
*) Romove APPEND support from OpenProjectFiles().
*) Make OpenProjectFiles() robust, even for creating new projects.
*) Load EESCHEMA colors in the KIWAY::OnKiwayStart() rather in window open,
and save them in the .eeschema config file, not in the project file.
*) Fix bug with wxDir() while accessing protected dirs in kicad.exe
*) Consolidate template copying into PROJECT class, not in kicad.exe source.
*) Generally untangle eeschema, making its libraries not global but rather
held in the PROJECT.
2) LIB_RECTANGLE and related classes sscanf data read from a file using "%s"
without field limits, which can cause problems with malformed/really long
inputs.
3) If some of the optional fields in a lib line are missing, "tmp" can remain
uninitialized.
Remove a minor warning message in Debug mode for 2 dialogs.
Pcbnew: update Gerber X2 file format (File Attribute) to very last X2 specification
Eeschema: Fix a minor bug in block selection (sometimes the last selected component was select instead of items in selected area)
and better drag behavior when draging an item by the drag hotkey.
Also fix incorrect backannotation when footprint names contain spaces (put spaces in names is always a bad idea)
* Fix minor Bug #1349058 Choose component dialog: Search field loses focus after entering a character and internationalize the dialog.
* Fix a subtle bug which prevent eeschema to read the project config file when launched from kicad manager, and when kicad.pro is not found.
2) Change from legacy Cu stack to counting down from top=(F_Cu or 0).
The old Cu stack required knowing the count of Cu layers to make
sense of the layer number when converting to many exported file types.
The new Cu stack is more commonly used, although ours still gives
B_Cu a fixed number.
3) Introduce class LSET and enum LAYER_ID.
4) Change *.kicad_pcb file format version to 4 from 3.
5) Change fixed names Inner1_Cu-Inner14_Cu to In1_Cu-In30_Cu and their
meanings are typically flipped.
6) Moved the #define LAYER_N_* stuff into legacy_plugin.cpp where they
can die a quiet death, and switch to enum LAYER_ID symbols throughout.
7) Removed the LEGACY_PLUGIN::Save() and FootprintSave() functions.
You will need to convert to the format immediately, *.kicad_pcb and
*.kicad_mod (=pretty) since legacy format was never going to know
about 32 Cu layers and additional technical layers and the reversed Cu
stack.
They are now member of EDA_DRAW_FRAME.
This change could fix Bug #1330781 (Background color change in Eeschema affects background color in Pcbnew)
Show page limits has meaning only for the schematic editor, the board editor and the page layout editor.
Draw background color selection exists only in eeschema and page layout editor.
In pcbnew, only a black background is allowed.
A side effect is now the user should set the background color in schematic editor, and the library editor (2 different options).
The default is still the white color.
- Refactored the common part of cursor key movement and crosshair update
in the various GeneralControl
- Add x10 movement with the keyboard (CTRL modifier)
- Avoid fixup of the cursor position by dummy mouse movements generated
by cursor warping (original analysis and idea Chris Gibson)
- Do key handling in a way to permit sub-pixel cursor movement
Change class PROJECT to use a generalized wxString in place of the
RETAINED_PATH items, so that new session and project specific strings
of any purpose can be saved there, for the life of a session.
Fix ( workaround only) crash (Windows only) when a quasi modal frame (like footprint viewer) was called from a dialog (like the component properties dialog in schematic editor).
Very minor other fixes.
- Better shape to the 60617 pin markers
- Made the markers' size proportional to the pin text
- Added the missing implementation in the pin plot routines
*) Eeschema can now show the footprint editor.
*) Eeschema can now invoke the footprint picker from the library part field editor.
*) KIWAY_PLAYER::ShowModal() takes aResultantFocusWindow that tells what window
to give the focus to. Required since frames are often near the top of the
hierarchy and they are invoked by a peer, not a parent.
*) KIWAY_PLAYER::IsModal() is now a retained state, controlled by SetModal()
*) Fully re-work the KIWAY_PLAYER::ShowModal() to use a nested event loop.
*) Add support to DIALOG_SHIM for a "quasi-modal" dialog presentation and mode.
See top of dialog_shim.cpp about that for benefits and need.
*) You can now pick footprint from the schematic component field dialog, although
if you do this before you open the BOARD, you will only get the global footprint
libraries, not also the project specific ones. Opening the BOARD first avoids this
problem.
This is the first example of cross KIFACE invocation, it is also the first
instance of using a TOP_FRAME other than FRAME_PCB as the first thing. It works,
but it's missing support for opening the project specific table because
historically the FRAME_PCB did that. This is now starting to expose all the near
term needs for KIWAY_PLAYER <-> PROJECT interaction, independence and out of
sequence usage.
A fix for this will be coming in a few days.
However it mostly starts to show why the KIWAY is terribly useful and important.
*) Rework the set language support, simplify it by using KIWAY. Now any major
frame with a "change language" menu can change the language for all KIWAY_PLAYERs
in the whole KIWAY. Multiple KIWAYs are not supported yet.
*) Simplify "modal wxFrame" support, and add that support exclusively to
KIWAY_PLAYER where it is inherited by all derivatives. The function
KIWAY_PLAYER::ShowModal() is in the vtable and so is cross module capable.
*) Remove the requirements and assumptions that the wxFrame hierarchy always
had PCB_EDIT_FRAME and SCH_EDIT_FRAME as immediate parents of their viewers
and editors. This is no longer the case, nor required.
*) Use KIWAY::Player() everywhere to make KIWAY_PLAYERs, this registers the
KIWAY_PLAYER within the KIWAY and makes it very easy to find an open frame
quickly. It also gives control to the KIWAY as to frame hierarchical
relationships.
*) Change single_top to use the KIWAY for loading a KIFACE and instantiating
the single KIWAY_PLAYER, see bullet immediately above.
*) Add KIWAY::OnKiwayEnd() and call it from PGM_BASE at program termination, this
gives the KIFACEs a chance to save their final configuration dope to disk.
*) Add dedicated FRAME_T's for the modal frames, so m_Ident can be tested and
these modal frames are distinctly different than their non-modal equivalents.
KIWAY_PLAYER::IsModal() is !not! a valid test during the wxFrame's constructor,
so this is another important reason for having a dedicated FRAME_T for each
modal wxFrame.
On balance, more lines were deleted than were added to achieve all this.
- Converted the Next/Prev C casts to static casts and removed the type
unsafe ones
- Splitted as virtual the VIA::Flip member instead of using RTTI
- Heavily refactored the 'unconnected track' cleanup routine
- Misc constification
SVG plot, fix a missing reinitialization in plot lines, which could define a filled polyline, instead of a simple polyline
(these fixes solve Bug #1313084 )
*) void KIWAY::ExpressMail( FRAME_T aDestination, MAIL_T aCommand, const std::string& aPayload, wxWindow* aSource=NULL );
*) virtual void KiwayMailIn( KIWAY_EXPRESS& aEvent );
*) enum MAIL_T expansion into the brave new world if cross KIWAY_PLAYER communications.
Let the KIWAY_PLAYING begin.....
through well conceived mail from one KIWAY_PLAYER to another.
Get thinking now. Add a new MAIL_T value, then send ExpressMail(),
and receive it in KiwayMailIn(), it's that easy.
Eeschema, Pcbnew, and Cvpcb all run under the same process now,
FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME!
*) Added KIWAY::PlayerCreate(), PlayerClose(), and PlayersClose().
*) Factored FRAME_T into <frame_type.h> from ID_DRAWFRAME_TYPE.
*) Found that the following command line is helpful for collecting all the *.kiface
files into the <build>/kicad/ directory so that kicad can find them.
$ cp `find . -name '*.kiface'` kicad/
Maybe somebody will want to rework how the CMake files are organized so all
the binaries can go into the same place. See python-a-mingw-us.
*) This might fix the problem on the Mac where child process windows were not
coming to the front. See ->Raise() in kicad/mainframe.cpp.
*) You can set USE_KIFACE to 0 in kicad/mainframe.cpp to chain load child exes
instead of using the KIFACE modules directly, i.e. revert.
if it is running under single_top.cpp or under a project manager.
*) Test Kiface().IsSingle() when adding menus, some operations are not permitted
when running under a project manager and the KIWAY_PLAYER is pegged to a
specific project.
*) Implemented KIWAY::KiFACE() so it loads *.kiface files. They still have to be
in the same directory as the main *.exe launcher, so this presents some difficulty
when the binaries are not yet installed but rather the *.kiface files are still
in their original build directories. For today, I simply copied _pcbnew.kiface
to build/kicad/.
*) Add a test case to kicad/mainframe.cpp just to get an early peek at loading
_pcbnew.kiface under the C++ project manager. Got that working for one
specific invocation just for proof of concept. Surprise, it works.
was used locally. Then comment it out in favor of a newer strategy for
filling in nicknames in cvpcb.
Add MODULE* FootprintLoadWithOptionalNickname( const FPID& aFootprintId )
throw( IO_ERROR, PARSE_ERROR );
from code found elsewhere.
In PATCH_COMMAND, use patch instead of bzr patch if patch or patch.exe is found (mandatory to use msys2 because bzr patch does not work when using msys2)
! The initial testing of this commit should be done using a Debug build so that
all the wxASSERT()s are enabled. Also, be sure and keep enabled the
USE_KIWAY_DLLs option. The tree won't likely build without it. Turning it
off is senseless anyways. If you want stable code, go back to a prior version,
the one tagged with "stable".
* Relocate all functionality out of the wxApp derivative into more finely
targeted purposes:
a) DLL/DSO specific
b) PROJECT specific
c) EXE or process specific
d) configuration file specific data
e) configuration file manipulations functions.
All of this functionality was blended into an extremely large wxApp derivative
and that was incompatible with the desire to support multiple concurrently
loaded DLL/DSO's ("KIFACE")s and multiple concurrently open projects.
An amazing amount of organization come from simply sorting each bit of
functionality into the proper box.
* Switch to wxConfigBase from wxConfig everywhere except instantiation.
* Add classes KIWAY, KIFACE, KIFACE_I, SEARCH_STACK, PGM_BASE, PGM_KICAD,
PGM_SINGLE_TOP,
* Remove "Return" prefix on many function names.
* Remove obvious comments from CMakeLists.txt files, and from else() and endif()s.
* Fix building boost for use in a DSO on linux.
* Remove some of the assumptions in the CMakeLists.txt files that windows had
to be the host platform when building windows binaries.
* Reduce the number of wxStrings being constructed at program load time via
static construction.
* Pass wxConfigBase* to all SaveSettings() and LoadSettings() functions so that
these functions are useful even when the wxConfigBase comes from another
source, as is the case in the KICAD_MANAGER_FRAME.
* Move the setting of the KIPRJMOD environment variable into class PROJECT,
so that it can be moved into a project variable soon, and out of FP_LIB_TABLE.
* Add the KIWAY_PLAYER which is associated with a particular PROJECT, and all
its child wxFrames and wxDialogs now have a Kiway() member function which
returns a KIWAY& that that window tree branch is in support of. This is like
wxWindows DNA in that child windows get this member with proper value at time
of construction.
* Anticipate some of the needs for milestones B) and C) and make code
adjustments now in an effort to reduce work in those milestones.
* No testing has been done for python scripting, since milestone C) has that
being largely reworked and re-thought-out.
* getpart.cpp: fix a potential bug on a translatable string with has requirements in spelling.
* fix bug #1066179
* kicad: fix erroneous labels in sub menus.
* Pressing 'Enter' while the focus is in the tree did not work due to the
double-click wxWidgets workaround. Make it work.
* More clearly document what is happening and how it can be tested.
* Fix string concatenation for _( "Unit" ) + wxT( " " ). This failed
compiling against wxWidgets 2.8 (thanks Cirilo Bernardo ).
* Base the indentation on a measured observation with explanation
(98%-ile of name-length found in library). The previously chosen 24
character indentation was too wide for most.
* Don't use a #define spilling into the global namespace, but use
a locally defined constant for COLUMN_DESCR_POS.
* Manually change fbp file minor version number so dialog could be edited
with latest release version of wxFormBuilder.
* Give component view panel more weight for improved component view size.
* Add padding around dialog button sizer.
