CHANGED: Environment variables defined outside of KiCad will no longer
be saved in the settings file. Paths can be configured via
the Configure Paths dialog and those changes will be saved in
the settings file if the new path is different from the default
and the path variable was not defined in the system environment.
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
Windows doesnt need an ambiguous "screen border region" defined in percent, it's an absolute area given in pixels
Also we need to check the top corner y value to the ClientArea returned from the wxDisplay, in the situation the task bar is on top.
Fix#7850
In case the documentation and help files from kicad-doc are not
installed or are located in a folder where KiCad cannot find them, an
info dialog is shown offering the user the option to access the online
help system instead.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/2142
On Linux, the documentation and help files are potentially installed to
a non-standard location (i.e., outside of /usr/share/doc/kicad/). This
can be the case when, e.g., multiple versions of KiCad are installed in
parallel. Making KICAD_DOCS available at run-time is the only viable
solution to allow the applications to find the help files in this case.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/7874
Rely on existing code to initialise the list of paths in which the KiCad
documentation might be located, thereby making SearchHelpFileFullPath
platform-agnostic and easier to read.
On MSW, CaptureMouse() was sometimes called event if the GAL panel has
captured the mouse (that was not accepted by wxMSW), although HasCapture()
returns false.
(Perhaps some race condition between events)
The fix add a flag to avoid calling twice CaptureMouse() after only one
wxEVT_MOUSE_CAPTURE_LOST event was received.
Fixes#8239https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/8239
Keeping them in base_units means that we can't introduce
any dependence on these functions to anything that needs to
compile without one of the unit defines (EESCHEMA, PCBNEW, etc)
This function is used in UNIT_BINDER, that does not accept floating notation
with exponent, that can be generated by parseSetResult().
As a result: values < 0.0001 cannot be entered in a UNIT_BINDER.
Introduce a new advanced config variable `KICAD_LIBRARY_DATA` which can
be used to move templates, symbols, footprints, and 3dmodels out of
`KICAD_DATA`. If not defined, everything is kept as before.
To facilitate this, PATHS::GetStockEDALibraryPath() is added. This
allows to differentiate code paths looking for EDA library data vs. code
paths looking for plugins, demos, and the like.
Thanks to Aimylios for the hints and suggestions with regards to the
stock EDA library data path handling on Windows and MacOS.
VIEW::GetBoundary() returns the entire view area, not the visible area.
Surprisingly, we had no API for this, so I added one.
Also, changed the dragger behavior to toggle between optimizing just the
modified area and optimizing the visible area, i.e. we will now never
optimize off-screen portions of the dragged track.
