inches and mm, the industry is crazy enough to force us with mixed
design. For example I routinely use imperial units for track size and
clearance, but drilling is strictly a metric issue...
So I added a little parser to recognize a suffix specification in the
unit text boxes... so you can put in things like:
1in (1 inch)
1" (idem)
25th (25 thou)
25mi (25 mils, the same)
6mm (6 mm, obviously)
The rules are: spaces between the number and the unit are accepted, only
the first two letters are significant.
As a bonus, it also recognize the period (.) as a decimal point
substituting it with the correct locale character (there was a wishlist
for it, IIRC). Most useful for number pad fans :D
* Fix a minor problem with wxFileDialog to open a file that no longer
exists in PCBNew.
* Make GerbView open file behavior the same as PCBNew.
* Remove redundant PCB file wild card definition.
* Add open file refactor task to the todo list.
* Fix some minor code formatting issues.
* Some bugs fixed
* Starting enhancements in Libedit: menubar and commands to "plot" current component in PNG or SVF file (SVG file not fully working, must be refined)
* Make USE_WX_ZOOM clipping routine actually clip rather than just test
if line needs drawn.
* Clean up as many USE_WX_ZOOM #ifdefs as possible.
* Minor coordinate rounding improvements.
* Minor scrolling and panning improvements.
* Remove unused KicadGraphicContext object code.
* Implement code to allow wxDC to handle coordinate conversions between
device and drawing units.
* Add build settings to enable wxGCDC for wxGraphicsContext testing.
* Remove wxAUI conditional build cruft as it is now required to build
Kicad.
* Fix scroll increment size regression to prevent jumping around the
zoom center position.
* Add find GDI+ cmake module for building on WXMSW when wxGraphicsContext
is enabled.
* in variable names, change non existent word Hight to High
* Remove redundant tool in left toolbar (option toolbar)
(this option is now in layers manager)
* Show layers in horizontal combo box in same order as in layer manager.
++all:
minor code cleaning.
* Remove redundant background redrawing RedrawActiveWindow.
* Remove redundant managed cursor callback in RedrawActiveWindow.
* Use refresh to redraw instead of directly calling RedrawActiveWindow.
* Remove unused SetDrawBgColor for drawframe.cpp.
* Fix compiler warning in cvpcb/cvframe.cpp.
* Fix menu spelling and syntax errors in pcbnew.
* Rename Trace_Curseur to DrawCursor in common/drawpanel.cpp.
* Fix debug asserts when passing NULL pointers to wxAuiPaneInfo.
* Fix Kicad main window sash sizer bug when using wxAui.
* Remove specctra_test from Visual Studio builds to prevent build errors.
* Add WIN32 to layer widget test so it will build properly on Visual Studio.
* Fixed compiler conversion warnings in PCBNew.
* Fixed worksheet print scaling in PCBNew.
* Minor code renaming.
* Moved ReturnLayerName() to static BOARD::GetDefaultLayerName() and migrated
to a Specctra DSN compatible default layer naming scheme:
Component becomes Front, Copper becomes Back.
* set_color.h: Cmp becomes Front, Cu becomes Back.
* D_PAD::DisplayInfo() changed to use actual copper layer names.
* more layer setup dialog work, moved all programmatic wxControl instantiation
into the wxFormbuilder environment, but this is fraught with danger:
wxFlexGridSizer used the tallest control to establish the row heights, so
be careful about changing control borders in the scroll panel. The vertical
size can explode since just a couple of pixels times the number of rows
is substantial. Currently I am setting a 5 pixel border only left, top, and right
but not bottom.
* Set copper layer count is back in place as a hack until I can get the enabled
layer bit map fully operational.
* Create single event handler for grid size events.
* Fix all frame windows to use new grid size event handler.
* Use offset relative to ID instead of ComboBox index to save last grid size.
* Move last grid size load/save setting into WinEDA_DrawFrame.
* Add equality and assignment operators the GRID_TYPE.
* Add current grid helper methods to BASE_SCREEN.
* Add GetPins helper to LIB_COMPONENT to replace GetNextPin where applicable.
* Add AppendMsgPanel helper to WinEDA_DrawFrame.
* Improve rounding for display of coordinates when millimeter units are selected.
* Split out application specific command IDs to prevent unnecessary rebuilding.
* Eliminate duplicate menu and tool bar command IDs.
* Split component library editor and viewer definitions to separate header files.
* More component library and document file merge code.
* A bunch of minor string readability and consistency fixes.
* Created separate SVN version header.
* Add true config.h for platform dependency checks.
* Add dependency check cmake module.
* Remove some leftover hand crafted make files.
* Remove non-cmake build instructions from COMPILING.txt.
* Fix split _() strings causing Visual C++ compiler error.
* Fix lots of compiler warnings.
* Change project file parameter container from wxArray to boost::vector_ptr.
* Removed lots of redundant header definitions.
* Fixed green_xpm redefinition in ercgreen.xpm.
* Remove some dead code and unnecessary class methods.
* All - add wxList implementation for dynamic declaration of application settings.
* EESchema: remove non-standard fonts and dialog button text colors from all UI controls.
* EESchema: update project file and application settings from static to dynamic method.
* EESchema: save and restore show hidden pins state between sessions.
* EESchema: global variable reductions.
* EESchema: use EVT_UPDATE_UI instead of SetToolbars() to set control states.
* EESchema: remove unused DialogBlocks BOM dialog project file.
* GerbView: remove non-standard fonts and dialog button text colors from all UI controls.
* GerbView: fix infinite loop when parsing RS274X aperture definitions with whitespace.
* GerbView: add file name to export to PCBNew select layer dialog.
* Add default OS program install path(s) to search path list as fail safe.
* Remove unnecessary wxGetApp calls in WinEDA_App class methods.
* Remove non-standard message panel font and changed background to system menu color.
* Remove italic fonts from menus.
* Remove non-standard font in Kicad app project tree.
* Remove font selection dialog menu items from apps for removed fonts.
* Remove all global variables and settings associated with the removed fonts.
* Fixed PCBNew export and import library file dialog response tests from wxCANCEL to wxID_CANCEL.
* Require CMake version 2.6.1 on Windows and version 2.6.0 for other systems.
* Update FindSubversion to version from CMake 2.6.1 (localization issue solved).
* Remove FindwxWidgetsCVS and use the default one (some issues solved upstream).
* Formatting style changes.
* MinGWResourceCompiler: change output directory and name of compiled resource file (old resource object files have to be deleted manually, eg. cvpcb/cvpcb_rc.o since the 'make clean' target does not remove them).
* Add some comments.
* Set a NAME_RESOURCES variable in MinGWResourceCompiler.
* Fix looking for zlib under msys (C:\msys\1.0). Minizip now builds under windows with external zlib.
