ADDED: with cmake KICAD_MACOSX_APP_BUNDLE option the user can disable
the macOS app bundle creation when compiling on macOS. This permit to
use/install KiCad like any other *nix platform (/usr/bin, /usr/share,
ecc.). By default, cmake build the app bundle.
Calling wxDialog::EndModal() directly from inside the dialog is a
potential bug if the dialog is shown in the modeless or window modal
(quasi-modal). Use the internal button events where possible and
check for the appropriate mode before calling the correct end dialog
function.
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
Set up a new lineage for SCH_ITEMS to get back to the SCHEMATIC
they live on: Items will all be parented to the SCH_SCREEN that
they are added to, and each SCH_SCREEN will point back to the
SCHEMATIC that it is part of. Note that this hierarchy is not
the same as the actual schematic hierarchy, which continues to
be managed through SCH_SHEETs and SCH_SHEET_PATHS.
CHANGED: Settings are now stored in versioned sub-directories
ADDED: First-run dialog for migrating settings from a previous version
CHANGED: Settings are now stored as JSON files instead of wxConfig-style INI files
CHANGED: Color settings are now all stored in a separate settings file
CHANGED: The symbol editor and footprint editor now have their own settings files
CHANGED: Color settings are no longer exposed through BOARD object
CHANGED: Page layout editor now uses Eeschema's color scheme
Settings are now managed through a central SETTINGS_MANAGER held by PGM_BASE.
Existing settings will be migrated from the wxConfig format on first run of each application.
Per-application settings are now stored in one class for each application.
Use the AddFileExtListToFilter() to also generate the
wildcard for "all files". This is because:
* Users can use AddFileExtListToFilter for the all files WC
with the same interface as for any other extensions.
* Users do not need to worry about wxGetTranslation, as the
_() is applied in the same way as the other *Wildcard() helpers,
and it is a function just like the others, so it is consistent
* There is a testable interface to document the expected result.
The test is added.
The default filename textbox confusingly could not be edited and the
checkbox for "Use default filename" would also use a default location.
As the netlist export is no longer required in the workflow, we can
simplify the layout to always show the user the file save dialog
allowing them to choose the location and name of the exported netlist
file.
Drop all uses of wxRAISED_BORDER and wxSUNKEN_BORDER from dialogs and
panels used in main frame windows.
Drop use of wxSP_3DSASH options on all wxSplitterWindow definitions.
Minor dialog alignment and spacing fixes.
Improve dialog layout and fix UI policy issues with all of the dialog
boxes in the common, 3D viewer, CvPcb, and Eeschema code paths.
Updated the use of component to symbol.
Replace all instances of "component" and "part" with "symbol" when
referring to schematic and library symbols.
Replace all instances of "component" with "footprint" when referring to
board and library footprints.
Minor dialog layout fixes to some of the dialogs impacted by the UI
string changes.
The GTK+ file dialog is case sensitive however it does support regular
expressions. Most of the file dialog wildcards are lower case so only
files with the lower case extensions will show up in the file dialog.
This code adds a method to convert file extensions of any case to the
appropriate (sch -> [sS][cC][hH]) regular expression on GTK+ builds so
all file extension case combinations will show up in the file dialog.
A note to developers: make sure to add a file extension when setting
when setting the default file argument. If you do don't set an
extension, the GTK+ file dialog will happily append the regular
expression as the file extension which is surely not what you want.
There are still a few known places (mostly gerbview) where there are
some complex wildcard code that has not been converted.
Fixes lp:1720542

Setfocus now works on macos dialogs by setting DLGSHIM_USE_SETFOCUS.
This option is only enabled __WXMAC__ is defined.
FixOSXCancelButtonIssue() is now called inside DIALOG_SHIM::SHOW.
All other calls from within the dialogs were removed.
netlist generation: remove option "replace IC and U ref by X" (broken option).
All component refs are now prefixed by the Spice_Primitive field value.
Therefore the netlist used by Kicad ngsipce simulator and the spice netlist generated from dialog are the same.
(note: like previously, forbidden chars like ( and ) are replaced by _ in netnames)
