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.
Related to issue https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/5263 except
that is for Pcbnew, and this fixes the same problem in Eeschema. Issue
5263 is fixed with Merge Request:

This may affect other EDA_DRAW_FRAME objects as well but it doesn't seem
to be as noticeable in the symbol, footprint, and worksheet editors.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/5248
When running the cleanup routine, we should check that we haven't
changed our lines during the process. If we have, we run again to pick
up the new merges

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
window is open, so we force it to be Modal instead of QuasiModal
The issue is addressed but reveals additional possible problems that
this commit fixes
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.
* Frames moved: cvpcb, cvpcb footprints frame, gerbview, pagelayout editor
This also introduces new EDITOR_CONDITIONS that are used to set the
conditions of very common editor settings.
Also, some IDs were converted to tools in the pagelayout editor.
This allows for the tool framework to keep track of a universal
set of conditions for the UI state (enabled/checked/shown) for
controls of actions. It removes the need for the main menubar
menus to be CONDITIONAL_MENUs and be rebuilt on each open,
and instead makes the updates of the check and enabling of
items handled in the native wxWidgets way.
This commit switchs the 3d viewer and kicad project manager window
over to this system.
EDA_ITEM is a child of VIEW_ITEM, so a static_cast is not appropriate,
since in some cases it could be called with a non-EDA_ITEM argument.
This was triggering an ASAN heap-buffer-overflow in GerbView.
Cross-probing from Pcbnew to Eeschema revealed that EEschema was
including all fields, visible or not, when calculating the bounding
box of the probed componentt. This caused problems with long strings
such as URLs that were not set as visible. The cross-probing code
tries to minimize 'Zoom to Fit' operations when it's not necessary,
and the overly large bbox values often resulted in zooms not being
performed and components displayed very small.
This code adds a version of 'GetBoundingBox' that takes a boolean
to tell it to include invisble fields or not.

The parent symbol needs to be the same pointer as the symbol that is
saved to the cache otherwise the derived symbol will have it's parent
set to a parent that is not in the cache so it will not be saved.

The symbol editor did not actually update the parent symbol when the
dropdown in the properties editor was changed. This fixes that defect.

Previously, they were being interpreted as inches, and then being
displayed as mils - leading to a multiplication by 1000 if there
was no unit string included.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/5117
This ensures the colors used by the status text pane in the preview
widget are the same as the canvas, so there is a seemless transition
between the two.
Additionally, remove the scrollbars from the symbol preview widget
in the place symbol dialog - they are pointless.
This is the proper fix for the symbole preview widget. It will ensure
there are no size changes between the two panels (preview and status),
and also ensure that the status panel has the same background color as
the preview panel.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/4997
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+
PROJECT objects will be deleted by SETTINGS_MANAGER::UnloadProject
so we need to make sure that this is called at an early enough point
in the closing process that anything needed by the PROJECT dtor
is still around.
Also fix an issue where the schematic worksheet was depending on
the project existing after the schematic had been reset.
By default KiCad will now print each polygon point on its own line.
This adds to the vertical distance for large polygons but makes revision
control much cleaner as single point addition to a polygon does not
propagate to a diff over the full polygon.
Users/developers who want to save the files using the 4-points per line
have the ADVANCED_CONFIG setting 'CompactSave' which will provide the
original save method
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.

LIB_PIN is never used in the connectivity calculation,
so it should use SCH_PIN instead. Additionally, the label
orientation should take into account the orientation of
the component to ensure they don't overlap.
Copying or cutting an symbol to the clipboard using the context menu
in the library tree requires a root symbol. Inherited symbols must
be flattened in order to properly be added to a symbol library.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/4901
Use the s-expression symbol library file format for copy/cut to clipboard
instead of legacy symbol file format when using the library tree context
menu copy and cut entries. Also use s-expression file format for parsing
clipboard contents using the context menu.

Str2Double assumes current locale. We usually switch the locale when
reading files but we should be using the function that explicitly gets
the C-locale conversion.
We used to have to open a PCB_EDIT_FRAME to get the settings for
the footprint editor and footprint viewer. This necessitated some
special processing when opening a PCB_EDIT_FRAME to actually edit
a board as it might already be open but unloaded.
Since the new settings architecture allows the footprint editor and
footprint viewer to init themselves we no longer need the special-
case code.
Don't copy the recursion test cache when copy-constructing
SCH_SHEET_PATHs as it's not needed in connectivity
Fix a few places that were copying unnecessarily
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.)
Rather than displaying dialog that has every update option possible like
updating footprints in the board editor, this change updates the library
symbol immediately using the symbol library identifier and requires no
additional input from the user.
ADDED: Context menu entry for schematic symbols to update the symbol from
the symbol library using the existing library identifier.

- Don't unload project if it's the same as the current one
- Make sure to properly init/de-init template field names
Per discussion on the developers list, this old system
no longer provides much value and is seen as annoying
by many users. The new save logic should prevent any
cases of file corruption on save, which was a major
reason for the backup file system existing.

Various architecture upgrades to support this.
Creating a BOARD now requires a valid PROJECT, which caused
some (mostly transparent) changes to the Python API internals.

ADDED new rectangle graphics tool for PCBNew and Footprint Editor.
Also adds rectangle tool to both Footprint Editor and PCBNew Place
menus.
The Aux Origin tool can come back once we have multi-select toobar
buttons.
Also collapses an unnecessary level out of the auxOrigin and gridOrigin
settings.

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
The line stroke property object STROKE_PARAMS was factored out an used in
the schematic line object. This will allow it to be used in other objects
that require line stroke properties so every object does not need to have
it's own definition for line stroke properties.
Don't rename symbol libraries when performing a project "Save As.."
except for the legacy cache library. Changing library file names
breaks the symbol library table. This was the less painful option
than updating the symbol library table.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/4605
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.
In order allow the new file format to support derived symbols with
field properties that are different than the parent symbol, the code
that copied the parent field properties to the derive symbol field
properties had to moved out of LIB_PART::SetParent() into the legacy
symbol library plugin and the symbol library editor add new symbol
code to preserve the current behavior and not overwrite derived
symbol field properties.
This lays the ground work for allowing field properties of derived
symbols to be different than their parent symbol.
CHANGED: The symbol library save menu entry is now only enable when the
currently selected library is modified.
CHANGED: The symbol library save all menu entry and tool bar button are
enabled when one or more of the symbol libraries have been modified.
REMOVED: The ability to save symbol libraries in the legacy file format.
Every time SCH_COMPONENT::GetDrawItem() was called, the schematic symbol
pin table was updated. Under certain conditions, this happens inside
loops so the amount of time spent rebuilding the pin table can add up.
