The config was saving a canvas type EDA_DRAW_FRAME member not always accurately initialized.
And the last canvas opened frame setup was saved, not necessary a frame having a canvas type that can be set by user.
This is a broken feature especially because the footprint viewer has a fixed canvas setting.
The canvas type might change without the frame being notified. If this
happens, the user is presented with repeated notifications of OpenGL
issues. Howver, switching canvas is not an error and should be
presented to the user as an info message to clarify that the system is
still working but it has changed how it renders the screen.

Misuse of __WXWINDOWS__ for checking the presence of Windows. The correct
macro is __WINDOWS__ or __WXMSW__ in GUI programs.
__WXWINDOWS__ is always set, on all platforms.
Use the AddFileExtListToFilter() to also generate the
wildcard for "all files". This is because:
* Users can use AddFileExtListToFilter for the all files WC
with the same interface as for any other extensions.
* Users do not need to worry about wxGetTranslation, as the
_() is applied in the same way as the other *Wildcard() helpers,
and it is a function just like the others, so it is consistent
* There is a testable interface to document the expected result.
The test is added.
Varargs make it very hard to pass strings in flexibly
when they (and the number of them) are not known
at compile time.
For example, this allows up to now amalgamate the "single
ext" and "multiple ext" unit tests.
The application warps the cursor when initiating some actions (dragging,

The standard DIM() macro was not typesafe as it happily deferred errors
to runtime that can be caught at compile time. Replacing it with a
generic C++11 constexpr allows for typecasting, comparison and compile
time error checking.
If you use add_custom_command to generate the grammar file,
it can be removed by "make clean". This then means the user will
need to get it back from Git, or regenerate it with Lemon.
Changing to add_custom_command removes the output file
from the clean list. The incantation to rebuild the grammar
remains the same: "make libeval_grammar", and it is still not
required to have lemon installed for a normal build.

Cairo supports antialiasing when rendering but can be slow when set to
sub-pixel mode. This bumps the minimum version of Cairo to 1.12
(available in 14.04 LTS as well as mingw) to support three antialias
settings (fast, good, best) that offer speed/appearance tradeoffs.
This can provide a higher-quality eeschema render as it works on a
per-element basis as opposed to the OpenGL per-screen antialias.
Currently, GAL is initialised to NONE (i.e. off). This causes
issues when Legacy canvas is broken (i.e. GTK3).
This changes the default to GAL Cairo, both in PCB_EDIT_FRAME
init, and in the config load.
Now, when the user starts with no config, they are prompted for
a choice: OpenGL or Cairo, and one of them will be set up, with
Cairo as fall back.
Users on platforms that still support legacy can go to it as normal
from the menu, but it will not be the default in any circumstance.

If a Scroll event is skipped, a default handler is fired by wxWidgets.
This default default handler fires 3 wxEVT_SCROLLWIN_LINEUP or wxEVT_SCROLLWIN_LINEDOWN events.
This is not wanted now in eeschema (and pcbnew) because they add extra (unwanted) scrolling.

wxChoice centers the selection on GTK. So when switching from a

It avoid including these extensions in a translatable string, thus avoid breaking filter
if the translation is incorrect (It happens sometimes).
See wildcards_and_files_ext.cpp for use.
If a page layout contains bitmaps and is used in all sheets of a hierarchy, and in the board editor,
the cross-probing from pcbnew to eeschema invalidate textures associated to these shared bitmaps,
when switching active sheets.
Usually a crash happens after switching or when closing editors.
As a workaround, I disabled bitmaps (therefore associated textures) cache.
Not optimal, but at least it avoid crashes.
The wrong class is called for the ctor of the wxConfigBase - this should

This make the use of legacy canvas on GTK3 a default-off
advanced config. Legacy is substantially broken on GTK3
and is of basically no use at all to general users on this
platform.
If the program starts with legacy canvas in the config,
it is forced into a GAL mode, as otherwise it could happen
that the user is stuck and unable to get into pcbnew to change
the setting.

This can be used for "advanced" options which are for developers
to use for feature-flags and other configuration. Run time config
has some advantages over preprocessor defines:
* Can be changed without recompilation
* Sensitive to XDG_CONFIG_DIR, so flipping configs is easy
* Better compiler coverage (less conditionally compiled code means
less chance to break a different configuration). Also better
analysis coverage.
* Type safe config params
* Centralised documentation: it's in doxygen, in one place
No advanced config should be required by a general users. If a general
user does use one of these configs, it's probably because:
* There is a bug and one of these configs is a workaround
* A config in here is generally useful and should be moved into the
relevant application config and given UI.
For now, the config is read-only, and is read from the
"kicad_advanced" config file in the normal config dir.
The fracture() call may result in zero polygons remaining, which will
cause failure in our tesselation routine, so we need to check whether
this is a valid POLYGON before re-tesselating.
Tesselation can fail for a number of reasons. When this happens, we set
the triangulationValid flag to false to prevent using the broken
triangulation. This will fall back to the slow OpenGL triangulation
when DrawPolygon is called.
Use TesselatePolygon() to draw polygons in Gerbview instead of GLU tesselation, much slower.
Add helper methods in GAL to know if the current GAL engine is Cairo, OpenGL or something else,
useful to optimize drawing code.
Graphic lines and polygons are drawn to fit specific areas for which it
is helpful to have the endpoint controlled by the cursor even when
constraining the angle.

Under GTK3, the scrollbars fade in and out, causing a cascade of
re-paint events. These cause KiCad to be unresponsive while the repaint
events occur. By default this is 1s fade in 1s fade out but can be
configured by the user/wm.
Area mapping the repaint events to just scrollbar areas will be a good
solution but until/unless that happens the scrollbars in GTK3 are
problematic.
On GTK+3, the zoom events are smaller and faster, so
the trigger the zoom acceleration.
A simple fix is to use the non-accelerated Mac-style
zooming and an appropriate constant. This can be tweaked
further as needed.

GTK3 smooth scrolling is enabled by wxWidgets but not to the exclusion
of normal scroll up/down events. wxWidgets maps these both to the same
scroll handler and will fire them both if they are not handled before
being queued. Testing timestamps allows us to mark and ignore the
dupes.
This is set to GTK3 only for now as it isn't listed as a problem for
other platforms. But it shouldn't cause issues if it is enabled
elsewhere in the future.
The libeval grammar can now be rebuilt with "make libeval_grammar".
This is only possible when lemon is installed.
Also a couple of modifications to the lemon grammar to
account for external changes since the grammer was last generated.
Also move the grammar defines into grammar.h - this is how
Lemon produces them, and by manually copying into the target .cpp,
it make automated regeneration impossible.
This adds a check for contiguous board outlines to the DRC. It also
uses the calculated outline to ensure that traces are not crossing the

The reduces a little bit of WX dependency, and makes
the timing code a bit more type-safe.
Also adds a more testable interface for the accelerated

This is done to avoid a big chunk of conditionally-compiled code
in the middle of the event function.
Also separates the zoom logic from the WX_VIEW_CONTROLS object
and isolates it in a separate class behind a clearer interface.
Add some simple tests for sane steps on GTK+3-sized scroll
steps.
This syncs the "All" checkbox with the state of the report options such

This makes using Scrollbars more easy to use, especially for "small" page sizes like A or B.
Note also the working/drawing area size is bigger than the page size (3 times)
This parameter defines the working area (full page) size.
The fix is not perfect, because it does not take in account the page size.
However it is similar to the "old" initialization, before Eeschema GAL.
In Eeschema, a reasonable boundary size is used.

Factor out save current canvas view to image file code from symbol editor

Currently only PNG output is implemented.
Please note that there is a minor bug that appears to be due to the
scroll bars which causes unfilled areas on the right and bottom edges
of the image. This always existed in the save symbol editor view

Due to the implicit floor of the cast from double to unsigned char,
there was a small rounding error in COLOUR4D's WX conversion function.
This fixes the failing tests.
Also make the cast to unsigned char explicit.
This avoids having to manually specify include/legacy_gal
in and legacy GAL targets, and harominizes with legacy_wx.
This also means .cpp files in common/legacy_gal do not
need to specify the legacy_gal subdirectory, so they
will continue to work as needed when legacy_wx is removed.
