Pcbnew: Code cleaning and bug fix in autoplace functions
Dialog exchange footprints has now a separate button to update the .cmp file, only on request.
* Improve MSG_PANEL_ITEM to handle message panel information.
* Create containers for passing message panel items between objects and
the message panel.
* Rename EDA_ITEM::DisplayInfo to EDA_ITEM::GetMsgPanelInfo.
* Remove all direct manipulation of EDA_DRAW_FRAME from all objects derived
from EDA_ITEM.
Should allow Pcbnew code easier to change and Gerbview code more understandable and easier to maintain.
Code cleaning (remove dead code, add comments).
Minor other enhancements.
the GetPosition() and SetPosition() changes. It also starts towards making m_Orientation
and m_Thickness fields private with accessors, but does not complete this latter goal.
* Grammar and spelling fixes in Eeschema, CvPcb, and Pcbnew path and
library dialog tool tips.
* Translate the French file name subrill.cpp to highlight.cpp.
* Lots of coding style policy fixes.
* Correct all user strings and comments for the correct capitalization of
application names according to JP. They are KiCad, Pcbnew, CvPcb,
Eeschema, and GerbView.
* Add a note the the user interface policy about the correct capitalization.
* Move schematic wire and bus break code into schematic screen object.
* Move schematic test for dangling ends into schematic screen object.
* Remove left over debugging output in schematic screen object.
* Remove unused file eeschema/cleanup.cpp.
* Fix bug in schematic line object hit test algorithm.
* Fix a string concatenation compile error added in r2752.
* Rename class WinEDA_BasicFrame to EDA_BASE_FRAME.
* Rename class WinEDA_DrawFrame to EDA_DRAW_FRAME.
* Rename class WinEDA_DrawPanel to EDA_DRAW_PANEL.
Added: in file dialog, multiple file selection.
Added: Draw mode selector (in left toolbar):
Raw mode:
a Gerber image is drawn on screen without buffering.
Artifacts happen if there are negative items drawn, if more than one Gerber file is shown.
Stacked mode:
each Geber image is drawn in a buffer and after drawn on screen
No artifact with negative items.
Each Gerber image covers previous images.
OR mode (transparency mode):
each Geber image is drawn in a buffer and after drawn on screen
No artifact with negative items.
Each Gerber image is "ORed" with previous images, like in Pcbnew.
Try to optimize Draw function in buffered modes.
(Useful for PC that have problems with "blit" graphic function)
Fix minor issues.
