This implements all existing symbol library object support and the ability
to save and load symbol library files between file formats for round robin
testing.
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.
When searching for fields, the code was sometimes comparing translated and not translated names.
This is an issue for mandatory fields, in non English languages.
Translated field names should be used only in messages.
When adding a .pretty library, if the actual .pretty folder were
selected then no folder would be added to the list of libraries.
This led to an assert when normalizing paths, and the library
not being added.
Add also a comment in common.cpp about using wxLocale instead of setlocale.
DIALOG_UPDATE_FIELDS has issues in non English languages, due to its design.
The fix for mandatory fields is only a partial fix that avoid major issues.
Previously, OnModify() was called for a lot of items, even when not modified.
For large schematics, the calculation time was unreasonable ( several minutes)
It is now called only a few times.
Shared sheets can create issues in a complex hierarchy.
This is not related to sharing sheets between projects.
(Sharing sheets between projects is not supported by Kicad)
These help files are created from the .md source files and contain I18n strings,
but do not exist if kicad is not built from sources.
However they are needed by translators.
ADDED: Back annotation algorithm,
eeschema back annotation dialog
CHANGED: added some minor helper methods to SCH_REFERENCE_LIST and SCH_REFERENCE,
split SCH_REFERENCE_LIST::CheckAnnotation on 2 parts to reuse code
When opening the symbol editor without loading the schematic editor the
default text size setting is not loaded and was defaulting to the old mils
setting. Convert the default text size to internal units in case the
symbol editor is launched first.
Set default line, bus, and selection highlight width to internal units.
Change new symbol dialog pin position offset control from a spin control
to a text control so the unit binder object can handle converting to and
from internal units.
Fixes#3802https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/3802
Scope: NETLIST_ITEM, CONNECTION_TYPE, ELECTRICAL_PINTYPE,
NET_CONNECTION, NETLIST_ITEM, GRAPHIC_PINSHAPE
Note, the pin type enum had PT_ added to the front to prevent
shadowing of the INPUT symbol on msys2 (see discussion at
c17c9960d8)
This also removes vector cover types which do nothing except obfuscate
the underlying implementation.
Mainly changes SCH_SHEET_PINS and CONFIG_PARAM_ARRAY (which will soon
be replaced by Jon's new stuff).
This moves EESchema DLIST structures to rtree. These changes are more
fundamental than the pcbnew changes from 9163ac543888c01d11d1877d7c1
and 961b22d60 as eeschema operations were more dependent on passing
drawing list references around with SCH_ITEM* objects.
For legacy reasons, it stored left and right "spin" as flipped integers in the file format.
But the code handled the flip in multiple locations rather than just doing it on file io.
This change unifies the internal code and does the mapping in the file I/O.
* Split up the thirdparty code into the thirdparty folder (#3637)
* Create a new kimath static library containing all the math functions
This is part of cleaning the build system for #1906.
ADD: User can now decide to keep the hierarchy navigator open while working
on a schematic.
This behavior can be configured in eeschema->preferences->eeschema->Editing options.
Change default text size and anchor positions back to mils. Internal
units need to be converted at the source, otherwise the size will get
converted twice in the schematic editor configuration code which will
result in the default text size being off by the conversion factor.
