CHANGED: Highlight net tool changed to highlight display toggle; moved to left toolbar
CHANGED: Multi-net highlight is now accessible when using the highlight net action
ADDED: Highlight Net and Clear Highlight actions to Net Tools context menu
ADDED: Default hotkey (Ctrl+`) for toggling net highlighting
The current and previous net highlight state are now stored and can be toggled
on or off with an action (no hotkey by default).
Highlight is now treated as a persistent state rather than a tool that is entered,
meaning there is no longer a special tool to enter in order to highlight nets.
Highlighting can be controlled while any other tool is active using the hotkeys
or context menu on a net object.
Tweak the icons for highlight net and layer display mode to better disambiguate them.

The log viewer tool lets you inspect all the intermediate stages of the routing algorithms. This patch:
- Adds source location tracking of the debug calls (need to use the PNS_DBG macro, sorry)
- Moves some wxLogTrace calls to DEBUG_DECORATOR::Message() so that messages can be displayed alongside the corresponding geometric shapes
- Fix walk failure if the input path starts on the hull boundary
(happens very often during tight walkaround)
- Input line can have a loop at the end now. Such condition happens when the routing
destination point lies inside the hull of a colliding primitive.
Differentiates better between the EDA_ITEM IsModified(), referring to
items themselves changing and the EDA_SCREEN IsContentModified(),
referring to whether we have made any unsaved changes.
After drawing a graphic, allow the control points to persist when
exiting the tool.
The effect of this is to make the first "Esc" press a
"return-to-select-tool" event without modifying the selection or control
points from within the drawing tools. The section "Esc" press, when in
the selection tool will clear the selection and the control points
While -our- user model is that Edge.Cuts is just for edges, it's best

Depending of Window managers, some texts were truncated.
Also avoid to write a sentence with the beginning in one widget,
and the end in another widget: it makes the sentence not translatable
called inside the board editor.
Fix also a broken behavior: the current action was not cancelled, and if it is
called during a move items (when typing the 'T' key), items were broken.
The actual bug is the fact it is called also in fp editor and footprint wizard frame,
because it is part of EDIT_TOOL action list, common to fp editor, and should not.
But a full change is much more costly than just a filter.
ADDED Paste Special... action in pcbnew
CHANGED Additional options for Paste Special... in eeschema, including
"Assign unique reference designators to pasted instance"
Duplicates are reannotated on paste in the same way in pcbnew and
eeschema such that when copying and pasting the same block in the
pcb and schematic, the reference designators will match.
wx/wx.h includes all wxWidgets .h files, and sometimes creates collision
names in #define between kicad and windows headers
Moreover, blindly including a lot of useless files is compil time consuming
Also removes a bunch of old implementations of pad locking and
filtering which are no longer needed. (They're now handled by the
uniform locking code.)
Also removes some of the auto-promotion logic. Rotating a footprint
when a pad was selected is going to be surprising whether the pad
is locked or not.

By 'root lines' we mean the oldest traceable ancestor of each track moved by the router
(i.e. after shoving for a while, the root of each shoved line is it's latest non-shoved version).
With this we can teach the OPTIMIZER more tricks, such as the LIMIT_CORNER_COUNT constraint. It ensures
the results of the optimization will not be less cornery than the original line, reducing the feeling
of the optimizer being too intrusive.
Fixes picking the last segment instead of the last vertex to drag (when one is requested).
I didn't notice any behaviour change of the dragger wrs to arcs.
For some reason the .cxx file generated by SWIG cannot be linked if compiled

REMOVED: Update schematic option from geographical annotation dialog due
to potential issues with incomplete and/or broken updates. Use "Update
Schematic from PCB" tool to update reference designation changes.
Forcing the footprint reference designator changes back to the schematic

schematic in a undefined state. The update schematic from board tool is
the correct method to sync any changes from the board.

This is a work-in-progress. It could use testing while I continue to fix
the remaining pieces.
There are some changes that will be needed for signing and notarization.
This currently relies on a Python tool I wrote (dyldstyle) to fixup
KiCad.app correctly. I would like any bundle fixing necessary to use a
built KiCad on macOS to live inside KiCad, rather than in
kicad-mac-builder or elsewhere. While I was experimenting, I found this
worked, however, and I would love to get extra hands testing.
I added a CMake argument, MACOS_EXTRA_BUNDLE_FIX_DIRS, for devs and
packagers who have extra directories they need to add to
fixup_bundle on KiCad.app.
There's an issue about differing behavior when KiCad is opened via
the command line or via Finder/launchd.
From discussion with Tom, Jeff, and Wayne, it appears as though
we all agreed that Highlight Collisions should behave like it
did in 5.1, which is to say, always just highlight collisions,
never prevent them. The Allow DRC Violations checkbox just
controls whether or not you can fix/commit the head line if it
has violations; you are not prevented from moving the head
line to violating positions in any case.
Right now, there does not seem to be much demand for a separate
"Stop at First Obstacle" mode since Walkaround basically does that
but better, but we agreed that if there is demand for it in the
future, it should be implemented as a new router mode rather than
a behavior of Highlight Collisions mode controlled by the Allow
DRC Violations checkbox.

When creating a polygon from an arc/circle, the small error due to approximation
can be now inside (when drawing/plotting the shape) or outside the circle
(when building a clearance area) like other pad shapes
Fixes#5313https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/5313
Using a synthetic via here doesn't quite let us use VIA::PushoutForce
because it will use the wrong clearance, and also doesn't quite have
the logic we want. I am not familiar enough with PushoutForce to know
if its logic is a bug in other cases, so instead I just brought in the
parts of its algorithm that are needed here.
Additionally, we prevent pushing more than once from a given obstacle,
which causes walkaround to be more successful when routing diff pairs
against a large collider such as a keepout area.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/8232
I'm not sure where the magic number of "4x worst" came from, but it's
been around forever. This is extremely inefficient as it negates much
of the power of r-tree filtering in dense designs. If we really trusted
it, we could set this just to worstClearance. Keeping it above the worst
clearance by a little bit seems to provide enough of a speed improvement
to resolve the test cases I have, so I'll go with that for now.

Keeping them in base_units means that we can't introduce
any dependence on these functions to anything that needs to

VIEW::GetBoundary() returns the entire view area, not the visible area.
Surprisingly, we had no API for this, so I added one.
Also, changed the dragger behavior to toggle between optimizing just the
modified area and optimizing the visible area, i.e. we will now never
optimize off-screen portions of the dragged track.
CHANGED: The interactive router settings now include a switch to
enable or disable optimization of the entire dragged track,
which is now disabled by default. When enabled, the router
will reroute the entire track (from the dragged segment to
the closest pad/via in each direction) to be more optimal.
When disabled, only the area around the dragged segment
will be modified.
CHANGED: The "optimizer effort" slider is removed from the interactive
router settings dialog, as this setting did not have any
meaningful impact in most cases and was a source of confusion.

The thickness only needs to be computed when the actual

resources and can cause UI lag.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/5049
When expanding an error to the outside of a rounded corner pad we
need to trim it to the pad bounding box or else we get little ears
where the circle approximation meets the pad square. This is expensive,
and for clearance lines we don't really care whether the error is
inside or outside.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/8157
Instead of enabling/disabling the controls on every possible
UI event in these dialogs, only do it when the actual control
wants to know if it should change status.
This code was shared between the footprint frame and
pcb edit frame, so push it into the base edit frame.
Also remove the dummy wxUpdateUIEvents that weren't
actually being used.
Use the connecting straight tracks even if not exactly parallel - allow
an error margin configurable in ADVANCED_CFG (default 1 degree). Also
be less strict about end point matching and use the width of the track
as the criteria to determine suitability.
Finally, delete any short lengths of track at the end of the operation
and amend the arc end points to keep connectivity.

The angle was `-angle` instead of `180 deg - angle` when flipping top to
bottom.
Fixing that, in turn, created some problems with justification, which
was modified both by `FP_TEXT::Flip()` and `FP_TEXT::KeepUpright()`.
What's worse, `FP_TEXT` has another mechanism for keeping the text
upright: `FP_TEXT::GetDrawRotation()` returns different angles if the
"keep upright" flag is set. But there is no analogous behavior for
justification, so the text would sometimes get shifted, and sometimes
not, depending on which mechanism was engaged. And both are used,
apparently.
Clearly, such an arrangement an open invitation to bugs and
inconsistencies. One of these mechanisms should be removed. I haven't
done this yet, and would prefer to postpone this until V6 is out.
I've fixed the justification problems, but this was by trial-and-error,
and I don't feel I really understand the behavior responsible. But I
think it's a good sign that most of my changes are line removals, not
additions. Flipping is a simple operation, it's just mirroring and layer
change. If something simple has a complicated routine, then it's
probably full of hacks.

This is under the supposition that we can't set the column widths

It is still possible to move a pad independent of footprint through
the pad properties dialog. This is a much more conscious decision
than using the move tools.
ADDED: "Allow free pads" preference setting in pcbnew, default to off.
When enabled, allows moving unlocked pads independent of the footprint
(i.e. previous behaviour). When disabled (default), any attempt to move
a pad will move the parent footprint instead.
REMOVED: "Lock pads of newly added footprints" preference setting in
pcbnew. (Pad lock state is now loaded from the footprint definition)
CHANGED: There are now only two possible lock states for a footprint:
locked and unlocked. The lock state of the pads in the footprint is
now independent of the footprint lock state.
Also fixed a latent bug that would allow a pad to be moved when the
parent footprint was locked (see m_selectionTool->RequestSelection
lambdas in edit_tool.cpp)

After commit 9535153f9e there were no more IDs inside the legacy ID
system. Therefore the entire system for dispatching and looking up
the legacy ideas and handling those events can now be removed and
the tool dispatcher simplified (it no longer needs to know about
the ACTIONS class).
Loading this advanced configuration option statically will cause it to
show up in the hotkey list even when the option is disabled. Creating
the tool action at run time resolves this issue.
This is hidden behind an advanced configuration setting and is primarily
useful for developers trying to troubleshoot the netlist payload sent
from the board editor to the schematic editor.

The ACTION_MENU constructor now takes the tool as an argument,
so the call to SetTool() immediately following it can be removed
and the tool just passed into the constructor.
Saying "Import/Export" on the labels when the submenu has "Import"
or "Export" in it is redundant.
Note that we can't just update the action text with the new name,
because that is used in the hotkey list and would become too confusing
without the "Import"/"Export" text.
The text areas aren't always redrawn when the window is activated
or deactivated, so we need to force a refresh of the text to ensure
it is the correct font color.

KiCad doesn't yet support full padstacks, but at least we can use the
solder mask / solder paste expansion to import a better result. Also
we can disable the specific layer if the shape has a size of zero.
The CADSTAR post processor has a peculiar feature called "route offset"
which effectively shortens tracks when the pad, track or via that it
connects to has a smaller width. This operation is not saved in the
design itself, but applied as a post processing operation meaning that
the importer has to apply it when loading on the board.

If we keep doing design validations at two different places, they can
only start to drift apart. Board Setup should validate for malformed

This also fixes a bug where implementation validations would not allow
OK in the dialog, but wouldn't put up a message to say why. We now use
the InfoBar impl from Jon's commit for that.

Bitmaps are now identified by an enum class instead of by pointers.
Bitmap loading and caching is now handled by a class in common, and

Old boards were using UNDEFINED_DRILL_DIAMETER value in file for via drill when
the via drill value was the netclass value.
Recent boards always set the via drill to the actual value, but now we need
to be sure always store the drill value, because netclass value is not stored
in the board file. Otherwise the drill value of some (old) vias can be unknown
The rotate mirror actions need to line up with the expectation.
FABMASTER keeps elements board-referenced while KiCad has some elements
referenced to the board and some referenced to the footprint
wxWidgets' UTF8 mode wasn't thread-safe, so we had to put mutex's on
a bunch of string operations, which meant that we couldn't return
references to strings. Now that we no longer use UTF8 mode anywhere
(and the mutex's were removed long ago), using references is a big
performance win in some places.
Between the time the user loads the footprint preview in cvpcb or Add
Footprint in pcbnew, we don't need to verify cache integrity to display
the footprint. We use the cache copy when displaying until we close the
selection window and re-open. This limits our need to iterate over the
full directory on every footprint display.
Alternate solutions for v7 should include looking into libfswatch for
change detection

Each symbol unit in eeschema has a unique identifier. But we don't have

This simple commit makes the Pcbnew copy to clipboard operation snap the
obtained cursor position to grid before the anchors are calculated. This
is also the way the move operation has been apparently working so far.
To be clear, this will not remove all cases where the copy reference
point is not aligned to the grid (see the linked Gitlab issue for
details about the problem). This will still occur for zone outlines that
are not axis-aligned. But such behavior has been so far also present in
the moving operation, so this may be as designed.

For some kinds of issues, we want a way to point them out but
we don't need to keep the user from being able to close the
dialog. A separate Validate button lets the user check for
issues if desired, but these issues are not "fatal" and can
be ignored if the user wishes.
The removal of the pcbnew general section was meant for v6 but passed
the deadline. This removes the duplication of thickness. We do not
allow the thickness to be different between nominal and stackup, so
keeping separate text fields is unnecesarily confusing to users
The automatic wire tool was not working in the gridless mode because the
grid snapping on/off logic present in `EE_GRID_HELPER`, based on the
value of `m_enableGrid`, was not taking into account that another check,
but for the global KiCad setting, would be performed in the `Align()`
method, which is inherited from `GRID_HELPER`.
I've modified all tests of `m_enableGrid` value to also take the global
setting into account, and moved checks for it to `Align()` method, as
it's more consistent this way.
I've also removed an override of the `Align()` method in the
`PCB_GRID_HELPER` class, as it was made redundant by my changes.

Some CADSTAR designs use zero sized pads because CADSTAR did not allow

This no longer returns the first pad, just the first by pad sort order
in output. The call is not used correctly in pcbnew, so removing to
prevent future misuse
For some reason the post-pinned local variable references were replaced
with calls to the points themselves (which are the pre-pinned values).

The nettie hack is used in DRC but we also need to use it in zone filler
to allow zones to be used with netties. We limit this to the
appropriate nets in the nettie

The conditions prevent use in immediate mode for common actions. While
this makes enable/disable easier in menu items, this fix is a patch
until we refactor the action framework to distinguish between immediate
mode hotkeys that should start without selections and menu items that
need a selection before running.

One way to do this would have been to keep the Uuids in the editor
copy. However, this opens us up to errors if we forget a Save As or
export path and end up writing the Uuids out somewhere else.
In the end, it felt safer to store a map of the original Uuids and
restore them if we happen to save the editor footprint back to the
board.

... because that's where we do hole-to-copper clearance testing.
Also augments the Clearance Resolution reporter to report on said
hole clearances.
And changes the interpretation of HOLE_CLEARANCE_CONSTRAINT to include
local pad clearance overrides.

New strategy isolates all draw/don't draw decisions to the ViewGetLOD
routines, and all dimmed/not dimmed to PCB_RENDER_SETTINGS::GetColor.
The actual drawing in PCB_PAINTER is more-or-less conditon free.
Also adds new layers for pad and via hole walls so that they can be
controlled for high-contrast mode.
Also changes the drawing paradigm so that the pads are drawn even when
not on the high contrast layer, just in low contrast. The hole wall
is drawn in high contrast. This actually makes things clearer to the
user (although to be honest was done to keep from having to re-render
pads when the high contrast layer changes since we have two separate
layers now that we can adjut colours on).

Moves rule area triangulation outside of layer iterator and keeps the
triangulation_valid flag false until the triangulation has been
completed.

Non-layer elements can be logical centers for the circle and arc tools.
We allow the non-layer to snap for the center points and revert to only
on-layer elements after

Zone connections (even half-connections) should trigger the connected
logic in flashPads. This removes the double-standard for painting pads
and imposes thermal standoff based on the net connection to the pad if
it shares a net, not just if connected
CHANGED footprint positions files -> component placement files.
Not all footprints get placed, so component is a more neutral word.
Use of "placement" instead of "positions" removes the double-plural
that makes footprint positions files such a mouth-full.

New strategy is to draw the hole wall cylinder if the pad (or via)
isn't flashed on a particular layer. This is (1) more correct,
(2) keeps pads which aren't flashed on any layer from disappearing,
and (3) allows us to remove a bunch of the other special cases.
Or at least I think it does. The proof will be in the (lack of)
follow-on bug reports....
Also fixes a bug where via annular rings weren't highlighted in
high contrast mode.

The BuildSteps folder now contains the CMake scripts that are
called during the build process as individual stages, while
the root CMakeModules directory contains the CMake files used
during the configuration phase.
Show the dragging tools in the context selection menu when a single
component is selected. Prevent the dragging tools from appearing when
more than one object is selected, as they will not activate anyway.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/7258
Also removes the "tip" icon which doesn't work on OSX and isn't as
important as the graphics which actually convey information. Replaced
with the more generic "Note: " string.

including wx.h is useless for this file, and include wx.h in a lot of other files.
Include wx.h must be made only when needed in a given file, because on Windows
it include some headers that frequently create collision with kicad declarations
Also fixes some latent bugs with not updating the local ratsnest
visibility in other places, and the netcode in update PCB from schematic.

After a rotation or flip the reference point has to be restored to the
previous value to prevent the dragged item from warping to the cursor.
Before this change, the reference point was only cleared, causing odd
behavior when a rotation or flip was performed.
