This is mainly to remove the annotation nag dialogs in favour of the
HTML links. But it also allows you to see more than a few messages,
and implements a progress reporter architecture if the ERC checks ever
get slow enough to benefit from it.
* Remove unicode quotes and ellipses from a tooltip string. Our
translation framework can't handle these, and they caused errors
generating the cpp file.
* Remove an assert generated when opening the dialog on 3.1 due to the
wxALIGN_CENTER_VERTICAL and wxEXPAND flags being used together.
* Add a left border to the general static box items so they aren't
squashed against the line.
Accessors were previously GetType() and SetType(), but this is a bad name:
These names are already widely used in code as accessors for a data type.
We do not set a data type, but a style, so use a better name (GetPlotStyle/SetPlotStyle).
CHANGED: Remove wire and bus formatting GUI elements from "Schematic
Setup" dialog panel. Wire thickness is handled by netclasses now
and this was a leftover from before that change.

in most of files, including wx.h is not necessary, when only 2 or 3 wx files must be included.
Moreover, on windows, including wx.h sometimes create compil warnings about
shadowed vars defined in some specific windows headers.
plotter.h contains now only a header common to all plotters.
The code does not actually change, but it allows modifying a specific plotter
without recompiling most of kicad files.
CHANGED: Pin position is now incremented properly in the Pin Table
dialog. The Pin position is ussing Internal Units insted of mils, so
the hardcoded 50/100 mils spacing has to be converted to IU before

1) use SCH_COMPONENT::GetRef(), GetValue() and GetFootprint() when
instance-specific info is needed
2) update UpdateAllScreenReferences() to handle value and footprint.
3) BACKANNO is CvPcb's handler, not back annotation's handler. Which
means it needs GUI behaviour, not back annotation behaviour.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/5520
Display warning infobar in the board/schematic setup when no project
is loaded, since most of the settings in those dialogs are saved in
the project and not in the board/schematic file.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/4868
* Make the app progress indicator only have the indeterminate state
when the taskbar indicator is used (causes an uused variable warning
on wx<3.1)
* Remove unused dry run variable in pcb_netlist.h
* Remove unused forceDropAnnotations from the paste special dialog
since the dialog only controls keeping them.
CHANGED: When the output path is set in the plotter dialog, the user is
asked if they want to make the path relative to the project. The old
code would ask the user if they wanted to do this, and then if it
failed would present an error dialog. The new code tries it first on
a copy, and only if it works does the user get asked if they want
to do it.

Adding a component in eeschema accesses the footprint table as well as
the symbol table. There are no safe edits that can be taken while this

Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/5206
The use of printf, wxLogDebug, and std::err/std::out causes excessive
debugging output which makes finding specific debugging messages more
difficult than it needs to be.
There is still some debugging output in test code that really needs to
be moved into a unit test.
Add debugging output section to the coding policy regarding debugging
output.
The symbol editor did not actually update the parent symbol when the
dropdown in the properties editor was changed. This fixes that defect.

ADDED: Progress indicator in the taskbar
This adds a progress indicator to the Windows and macOS taskbar
icons to display the progress of some operations.
Note, this requires wxWidgets 3.1+
This way, when the user changes their color theme, any sheets
that did not have a specific color set will change with the theme.
Also add a button to clear color overrides from a sheet, because
any schematics that have been saved before this change will have
the colors set to something other than UNSPECIFIED.
ADDED Eeschema-specific netclass settings including wire and bus
thickness, color, and line style.
Netclasses override individual wire & bus colors and line styles.
If that proves an issue we might look at something more sophisticated
with inheritance.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/4581
(The code was updated to use INDETERMINATE_ACTION, but the dialog
wxChoice still specified an entry of "...". This moves both to the
code so it's harder for them to get out of sync.)
Remove extraneous use of FLAG0 from tracks cleaner (it was checked but
never set).
Fix issue in expand connections where two parts of it couldn't agree
on the same flag (BUSY vs SKIP_STRUCT), and where the second part was
clearing the flag instead of setting it.
Remove obsolete HIGHLIGHT infrastructure (we now use selection).
Remove extraneous use of BUSY flag in several places (it was never
set).
Add missing plot and print changes for the new bus entry properties.
ADDED: Junction properties diameter and color can now be edited.
Fixes: https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/4593
A note to developers, please do not set the minimum and/or size of bitmap
buttons. It causes bitmaps to get clipped using GTK on Linux. If the
bitmap button size is not acceptable, then supply an appropriately sized
bitmap rather than attempt to force the wxWidgets sizing mechanism to do
what you want. This almost always causes platform differences that do
not work well.
This provides a method to add symbols that represent footprints on the
board that do not have an associate component such as mounting holes,
fiducials, logos, etc that should be excluded from the bill of materials.
It also prevents those footprints from being removed from the board
accidentally when updating the board from the schematic.
ADDED: Support to exclude schematic symbols from bill of materials
export.
CHANGED: Derived library symbols will inherit optional fields defined by
their parent symbol and override existing optional fields.
CHANGED: The symbol editor will now only display the fields defined in
derived symbols rather than show mandatory fields inherited from the
parent symbol. Showing fields that cannot be edited would be confusing.
CHANGED: All mandatory fields in derived symbols can be edited. This
not only includes the field value but also all text properties.
Kill the dual datasheet variable storage which caused many datasheet
bugs over the years. The datasheet is now always stored in the data
sheet field.
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.
SCH_SCREEN::UpdateSymbolLinks() should only be called when working with
the legacy schematic file format. Add schematic symbol library symbol
links should be set using SCH_COMPONENT::SetLibSymbol() which updates
the symbol link and pin map accordingly.
Change the schematic symbol LIB_ID edit dialog to properly use the new
SCH_COMPONENT::SetLibSymbol() function.
Use flattened (root) library symbols to prevent broken library symbols
in schematic files.
Remove the edited symbol from screen before making changes to the symbol
to prevent potential orphaned symbol libraries being saved in schematic
file.
Add some defensive programming to let developers know that an invalid
library symbol link was used when calling SCH_COMPONENT::SetLibSymbol().
There has been a long standing (since the beginning of the project?)
issue with sharing schematics between projects. It has been somewhat
supported for complex hierarchies (a sheet shared multiple times in a
single design) but it has not been well supported for simple hierarchies
(the symbol references cannot be changed in the shared schematic). This
issue has been resolved by moving all of the symbol instance sheet paths
from the symbol definitions in the all of the project files and save all
symbol path instances in the root sheet. This ensures that orphaned
symbol instance paths do not accumulate in shared schematic files and
that designs that reuse schematic in simple hierarchies can how have
different references. It also allows the root schematic from one project
to be uses as a sub-sheet in another project.
When legacy schematics are loaded, all sheet and symbol UUIDs are
converted from time stamps to true UUIDs. This is done to ensure there
are no sheet path instance clashes between projects. That being said,
there are no checks for this. It is assumed that the probability of
UUID clashes is so low that it doesn't make sense to test for them.
This is a very large and potentially disruptive change so this will be an
unusually long and detailed commit message.
The new file formats are now the default in both the schematic and symbol
library editors. Existing symbol libraries will be saved in their current
format until new features are added to library symbols. Once this happens,
both the legacy schematic and symbol file formats will be no longer be
savable and existing libraries will have to be converted. Saving to the
legacy file formats is still available for round robin testing and should
not be used for normal editing.
When loading the legacy schematic file, it is imperative that the schematic
library symbols are rescued and/or remapped to valid library identifiers.
Otherwise, there will be no way to link to the original library symbol and
the user will be required manually set the library identifier. The cached
symbol will be saved in the schematic file so the last library symbol in
the cache will still be used but there will be no way to update it from the
original library.
The next save after loading a legacy schematic file will be converted to
the s-expression file format. Schematics with hierarchical sheets will
automatically have all sheet file name extensions changed to .kicad_sym
and saved to the new format as well.
Appending schematics requires that the schematic to append has already been
converted to the new file format. This is required to ensure that library
symbols are guaranteed to be valid for the appended schematic.
The schematic symbol library symbol link resolution has been moved out of
the SCH_COMPONENT object and move into the SCH_SCREEN object that owns the
symbol. This was done to ensure that there is a single place where the
library symbol links get resolved rather than the dozen or so different
code paths that previously existed. It also removes the necessity of the
SCH_COMPONENT object of requiring any knowledge of the symbol library table
and/or the cache library.
When opening an s-expression schematic, the legacy cache library is not
loaded so any library symbols not rescued cannot be loaded. Broken library
symbol links will have to be manually resolved by adding the cache library
to the symbol library table and changing the links in the schematic symbol.
Now that the library symbols are embedded in the schematic file, the
SCH_SCREEN object maintains the list of library symbols for the schematic
automatically. No external manipulation of this library cache should ever
occur.
ADDED: S-expression schematic and symbol library file formats.
Some items (tracks and footprint graphic items) when reading were added in reverse order
of the initial file, creating useless differences and breaking source comparisons.
Also fixes a bug where a bunch of eeschema settings weren't getting
loaded because it looked like they were larger than the max value
(which wasn't being scaled from mils to internal units).
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/2089
In Eeschema, texts are expected to have the same size X and size Y.
So we cannot set 2 different values for X and Y pin size:
- only size X is saved in file
- 2 different values for X and Y create bad look for pin + associated graphic symbol
Allowing separte values need a file format change *and* a code change.
These panels must have the wxTreeBook as parent to receive mouse and key events.
They previously have the dialog itself, but it does not work on any OS.
(the dialog was reactivated by calling Raise(), but this is not enough: Show()
must be called also, at least on Windows).
Fix also a minor wxWidgets alert in ERC dialog.
Fixes#4171https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/4171
When editing a sheet properties, the dialog always thinks the sheet filename is changed.
It creates serious issues, like duplicating all items in sheet, because the code try to
again import the existing sheet file content.
The temporary fix does not import the existing sheet file content if the
filename is not modified.
This is a very partial fix, because there are many other issues in this dialog
The code that checked for pin conflicts to determine if a symbol needed
rescued did not check either the pin convert setting so it was possible
for a pin from the other convert on symbols that do not have identical
units to appear to not have a pin conflict. Add tests for pin unit and
convert setting to prevent that from breaking the comparison. This must
have always been broken.
Fix the symbol preview widget to prevent drawing all symbols on top of
each other (if we need to do this the code will have to be revised) and
also show the convert if valid.
Fix broken symbol cache library when saving alias symbols.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/3879
It looks good, but non-mandatory fields have an ID of -1, so it
doesn't actually work. Some places got around this by converting
the ID to unsigned, but this just hides the real issue from
unsuspecting coders.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/4140
Please note that the symbol cache is not embedded in the schematic file
to allow for round robin testing with the existing file format. Once
the parser round robin testing is complete, the symbol cache will be
embedded in the schematic file.
Includes improvements to Update PCB from Schematic dialog and
corresponding changes to Symbol Properties, Sheet Properties and
Footprint Properties.

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.

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.
Fixes#3730https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/3730#
Derived symbols were causing the symbol properties grid to assume that
the reference could not be edited because derived symbols inherit the
reference from the parent symbol. The flattened symbols in the schematic
still have the parent set which cause the issue. Clearing the parent of
the flattened symbol resolves the issue.
Fix a minor bug in the symbol information of derived symbols show in the
symbol chooser dialog.
Fixes#3723https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/3723
ADDED: a config option to select (when clicking on a pin) the parent symbol
or only the pin.
Previously, when cliking on a pin, the parent symbol was selected.
Allowing the pin selection is mandatory in cross probing, and to display the pin
characteristics in some cases, for instance if a pin is flagged by the ERC tooL.
There is no need to create a new root symbol and re-parent all derived
symbols when renaming a root symbol. Just rename the buffered root
symbol.
Test for duplicate symbol names when validating the properties dialog
information to prevent broken symbol pointers.
Fix a field drawing bug when editing derived symbols.
Fix bug to insure duplicate symbol names cannot exist in a library.

The library manager update part function was orphaning the root symbol
of derived symbols when the root symbol was edited. Re-parent the
inherited symbols when updating a root symbol.
Update the mandatory field attributes whenever the parent is set for
derived parts. This will show the fields with the correct attributes
in the symbol editor and viewer.
Using std::unique_ptr to hold the current symbols was deleting the
pointer on symbol selection changes causing the pointer in the library
manager buffer to be stale in some cases. Revert back to using a
simple pointer and manual clean up as required.
Prevent derived symbols from being saved to a different library to
prevent orphaned symbols.
Fixes kicad/code/kicad#3649
ADDED new option to set selection highlight thickness.
Also change selection shadow width constants to
make the selection thickness change less drastically
with the zoom level.
This change completely removes the LIB_ALIAS design pattern an replaces
it by allowing LIB_PART objects to inherit from other LIB_PART objects.
The initial implementation only allows for single inheritance and only
supports the mandatory fields in the derived part because that is all
that the current symbol library file format will support. Once the new
file format is implemented and saving to the old file format is deprecated,
more complex inheritance will be added. The LIB_ALIAS information saved
in the document files was move into the LIB_PART object. This change
impacts virtually every part of the schematic and symbol library editor
code so this commit message is woefully incomplete.
REMOVE: Removed the symbol aliases concept from the schematic and symbol
editors and the symbol viewer.
NEW: Replace the symbol alias concept with simple inheritance that allows
a library symbol to be derived from another library symbol.
It happens when the spice library model shown in dialog is a large file.
Looks like the wxTextCtrl used to displays the library content
creates the crash ( GKT bug?) for large texts.
The fix is to replace this wxTextCtrlt by a wxStyledTextCtrl.
It has advantages (does not crash... and much faster display) and
inconvenients (cannot disable editing).

The sort routine requires the value to be true with a is strictly lower

includes '>='. This causes items to jump in the list.
NEW: A text entry allows adding signals by name. This includes vectors
not in the signal list, which is useful for plotting calculated vectors
like `let AB=V(a)*V(b)`. It's also a faster way to add a signal if you
know its name already.

Note that since the markup might exist for other reasons, it has
to be turned on with a preference setting. (It goes through a set
of bitflags so the same architecture can be used for other markup
structures that we might want to support in the future.)
Note also that this is more about engineering nomenclature than
visual formatting. In that respect it's more similar to overbar
than italic or bold.
When placing a new component in the schematic, this allows the user to

Also allows Ctrl-Y under Linux in addition to other platforms. While
not as popular as Ctrl-Shift-Z, it is utilized for Redo in some contexts
When editing symbol library reference, this ensures that all units are
