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).
- re-worked PNS_LINE_PLACER and PNS_ROUTER classes a bit, removing duplicate class members
- cleaned up Andrew's blind/buried via fixes
- fixed 'custom via width' dialog bug updating the width even when closed/cancelled
- fixed incorrect radius of drawn microvias
* 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.
* Improve VRML export dialog lay out.
* Make the OK button the default action in the export dialog.
* Make 3D model export work correctly and avoid redundant file copies.
* Fix embedded path separators in wrl files on windows.
* Fix absolute model file path creation in wrl files.
* Clean up VRML export code.
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.
- 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
* 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.
*) 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.
3dviewer: back to double (from float) in class S3D_MASTER for 3 members (m_MatScale, m_MatRotation, m_MatPosition) which are used in dialogs and r/w file functions, which expect double.
Using float create minor but unwanted issues in r/w file functions.
S3D_MATERIAL: enable all color options: if a 3d shape has bad color parameters, the shape must be modified, not the 3d rendering.
The rendering now matches what we see in other vrml viewer like FreeCAD.
Some minor coding style fixes.
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.
* in file/library save as..., remove option to save a lib under the legacy format (which is not possible and creates an error message)
* if the current loaded lib is a legacy lib, when the user try to save or delete a footprint, displays a message which explains what the user should do.
* add a suitable dialog to select/create a .pretty folder library (a file dialog or a dir dialog coming from wxWidgets is not friendly usable.)
