They are particularly damaging when our event loop
gets tied up in knots with the log message window
behind a modal window -- thereby locking up KiCad.
- Add a test to be sure a SCHEMATIC exists before trying to use it
- Delete items in Repeat list and undo/redo list before deleting the schematic
- Delete also these items when loading a new schematic (the repeat list was
not cleaned previously)
Before these fixes I see a use after delete issue due to dangling pointers
stored in Repeat list.
Also removes the side-effect that SCH_SHEET_LIST's
c'tor would sort the list (and write virtual page
numbers) anytime the starting sheet was the root.
Also, definitely don't build a SHEET_LIST (sorted or
otherwise) if you're not even going to use it.
Also don't build SCH_SHEET_LISTs on idle events. Better
to just always have the Next Sheet button enabled (we
already beep if you click it and there's no next sheet).
Also, use a SCREEN_LIST when you can. It's much cheaper
to create.
The benefit of incremental connectivity is only for larger
schematics. For smaller schematics, the downside of larger bug surface
outweighs the current benefits
Includes:
- Fix GAL to draw closed polygons in eeschema
- Add functionality to eeschema to draw arbitary polygons
- Update polygon item previews to have customisable edge colour
- Add new SCH_RULE_AREA class, derived from a poly SCH_SHAPE
- Add SCH_RULE_AREA to paint and plot methods
- Add new rule area color preference to themes
When we replace a symbol with one that has fewer pins, the old pins
are released, which leaves points to them in the connection graph
dangling. This updates the pointer to use the cloned copy in the undo
stack until the connection graph is rebuilt with the new data
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/17851
When changing from a larger part to a smaller part, the previously
existing pins may be removed from the screen but still linked to
elements in the connection graph because we don't set them dirty unless
the changed element overlaps

Ignore bus member connection subgraphs. They do not have a valid net
name nor do they contain schematic items. This prevents empty nodes
from being added to the tree. They can be reintroduced in the future
if someone wants to pursue it.
Freeze the wxTreeCtrl while populating it and thaw when done to prevent
any unnecessary repainting.
Add profiling to test how long it takes to rebuild the net navigator.
The recently added populate the navigator with all nets when no net
is highlighted has exposed some potential performances issues with some
versions of wxWidgets on certain platforms. Namely wxWidgets 3.2.4 on
Linux GTK.
Fix an issue where a sheet name change would not update the highlighted
net navigator resulting in a stale human readable sheet path.
Prevent the highlighted net navigator from being rebuilt twice when
loading a schematic. SCH_EDIT_FRAME::RefreshNetNavigator() was being
called from both SCH_EDIT_FRAME::UpdateHierarchyNavigator() and
SCH_EDIT_FRAME::RecalculateConnectivity().
Add a new trace helper "KICAD_UI_PROFILE" to show trace output when
profiling user interface performance. It's used in the net navigator
profiling mentioned above.
Reuse PROF_TIMER::Show() to generate string for PROF_TIMER::to_string().
The connectivity routine would consider symbols, overwriting unused
subgraphs for pins that were not in the change list. This is resolved
by updating the full connectivity to only use pins in the graph since
symbols are not connected independently.
In the process of adding QA tests for this change, additional issues
with the schematic QA were discovered. Specifically, we were not
properly setting the root sheet UUID. This was partially masked by a
const_cast setting of the RefDes in sch_symbol when called the RefDes
getter. This exposed the fact that our QA ERC numbers did not match the
schematic editor stand alone ERC numbers. So the test value for one
check needed to be updated

This has now pushed the issue down to a broken RTree issue. Skipping the
asserts in debug builds will still crash but now it's pushed down to the
RTree.
The undo/redo lists can have non-SCH_ITEM elements such as worksheet
items. When re-doing connectivity, we only need the schematic items, so
we pass on these
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/16752
The new behavior is to only expand to the first child of the root sheet
level. On very complex hierarchies, this makes the navigator far more
useful.
Do not update schematic hierarchy navigator on every edit. Now only
sheet changes will trigger a rebuild of the tree.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/16371
We used to store the symbol units of the current sheet and then
restore them, but we didn't handle the dangling states.
The new code uses a different strategy and just makes sure that if
any of the sheets are going to modify the current screen, the current
sheet gets to go last so that its modifications will "stick".
