Handles % macro expansion in user texts inside pcb modules.
At the moment the following are available:
%% A plain %
%R Insert the reference
%V Insert the value
* 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.
*.i : fix coding style issues.
python method: add BOARD_ITEM Duplicate, which is a wrapper to Clone(). ( defined as Cast_to_BOARD_ITEM(selt.Clone()).Cast() )
update some .py examples.
change also name TEXTE_MODULE::RotateWithModule to TEXTE_MODULE::RotateTransformWithModule for same reason.
Pcbnew: fix Bug #1374484 (text changes position when module is flipped and rotated). Fix also some bugs in modedit, in block commands.
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.
Also do not allow copper layers, solder paste and solder mask: put Ref or Value on these layers has no sense, and can create serious issues on the board.
Since reference and value are not anymore always on silk changed the label on the corresponding options in the plot dialog
The 'proper Gerber extensions' was renamed in dialog as 'Protel Gerberl extensions': I don't know if it was a typo/misunderstanding or what but the proper extension is gbr; the set of alternative extensions seems to be the one used by Protel/Altium.
The members SetIgnoreMTextsOnCopper, SetIgnoreMTextsOnCmp,
SetIgnoreModulesOnCu, SetIgnoreModulesOnCmp in the collector guide are
renamed to the clearer SetIgnoreMTextsOnBack, SetIgnoreMTextsOnFront,
SetIgnoreModulesOnBack, SetIgnoreModulesOnFront
Modified the collector and drawing behaviour for text in modules as
discussed in the mailing list.
* Now module text on layers different than Silk should work! *
Still need UI support for setting the layer in the module editor.
- Removed the friends MODULE and FOOTPRINT_EDIT_FRAME from TEXTE_MODULE
(as in the @todo comment)
- Refactored the Rotate/Flip/Mirror for text in modules into the
TEXTE_MODULE class itself (members RotateWithModule, FlipWithModule,
MirrorWithModule)
- New behaviour in coloring text on screen: reference and value still
take the color from the MOD_TEXT_FR_VISIBLE and MOD_TEXT_BK_VISIBLE
visibles; other text takes the color of the layer containing it
(except when hidden, obviously) but still get its visibility
controlled by those visibles (probably the most intuitive and useful
behaviour)
- Still need to decide: should text on a layer be hidden when the layer
is? Probably yes (still to be implemented);
- Some comment fixed and many cast converted to static_cast
- Reference is visible on silk and the corresponding assembly layer
- Reference is shown on assembly always on the component insertion point
Hidden references are not forced shown in assembly plots (there is
already a user option for that)
* Create GetNewConfig() and GetKicadConfigPath() to unify configuration file
creation and location.
* Move Windows configuration out of the registry into configuration files.
* Move Linux configuration files from $HOME to $HOME/.config/kicad to eliminate
configuration file pollution in the users $HOME folder.
* Fix a bug in the configuration file where the Eeschema hot keys are saved.
* 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.
* 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.
wxUpdateUIEvent events can be sent to parent frames, when opening a menu in a child frame, if parent and child frame share same ID fro menuitems (or tools)
The wrong menuitem can be used in some cases ( because there are more than one menuitem with the same identifier), by a wxUpdateUIEvent event function run in a parent frame.
