The only subtle difference is that Duplicate() does not modify the
clipboard contents so we need to keep a local variable in which to
store the result of a Copy()
Use justification instead of orientation relative to the anchor point when
describing text direction and alignment. This seems to be the preferred
method by most users so hopefully this will eliminate some confusion.
Fix a bug in the s-expression schematic parser that failed to take into
account how graphical text alignment is defined for graphic text objects
compared to label text objects.

ADDED Paste Special... action in pcbnew
CHANGED Additional options for Paste Special... in eeschema, including
"Assign unique reference designators to pasted instance"
Duplicates are reannotated on paste in the same way in pcbnew and
eeschema such that when copying and pasting the same block in the
pcb and schematic, the reference designators will match.
Save sheet and symbol instance information to the clipboard on copy
Load sheet and symbol instance information from the clipboard on paste
and renumber page numbers after loading.
Correctly handle pasting in a multiple hierarchy by ensuring symbol and
sheet instances are updated for all instances of the destination sheet.

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
REMOVED: Update schematic option from geographical annotation dialog due
to potential issues with incomplete and/or broken updates. Use "Update
Schematic from PCB" tool to update reference designation changes.
Forcing the footprint reference designator changes back to the schematic
without checking any other board changes in the schematic could leave the
schematic in a undefined state. The update schematic from board tool is
the correct method to sync any changes from the board.

When activate the new symbol placement, the mouse cursor is outside the canvas.
Therefore a autopan was started and not so easy to stop.
Now the mouse cursor (and the graphic cursor) are moved to a better location inside the canvas.
Fixes#8156https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/8156
We've been doing this for some time to wires that are attached to
the moving block (and therefore have the other end anchored). However
we also need to apply it when dragging a single end of a wire.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/7807
The native cursor must be set on the GAL canvas wx object,
not its frame (otherwise on GTK the cursor is only set
when we get a request for it from the WM and not immediately).
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/6421
After commit 9535153f9e there were no more IDs inside the legacy ID
system. Therefore the entire system for dispatching and looking up
the legacy ideas and handling those events can now be removed and
the tool dispatcher simplified (it no longer needs to know about
the ACTIONS class).
The ACTION_MENU constructor now takes the tool as an argument,
so the call to SetTool() immediately following it can be removed
and the tool just passed into the constructor.
SHIFT, CTRL, ALT modifier keys were handled in 2 different codes, one for
the selection tool and another to modify the mouse cursor shape, with 2
different configs.
Now the modifiers are managed from only one function.
Pcbnew: group also SHIFT, CTRL, ALT modifier keys management to a specific function.
Fixes#8021https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/8021
For some reason, the footprint UUID was being prefixed to the sheet path
which caused the symbol look up by sheet path to fail. An option was
added to not do this when the geographical back annotation to the schematic
is performed.
We kept having various issues of the pointer list going stale. This
will prevent all permutations of that.
Also while I was in there I fixed the double-move thing (see bug
number).

1) Accept <enter> as OK if the multiline textbox isn't shown.
2) Focus and select all in first control if multiline textbox isn't shown.
3) Make title be title caps ("Edit Sheet name Field" looked dorky).
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/7940
1) Cloning the component fails to select all its pins.
2) Something about the layer compositing causes light selection shadows
to get even lighter. The default pretty much disappears.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/7908
1) Don't factor in pin names when computing symbol body boundingbox.
2) Grid-snap only in the axis corresponding to the layout side.
3) We only need interline spacing *between* lines, not for each line.
4) Also cleans up the unit checking logic as the unit can't be more
than 0 unless it's a multi-unit symbol.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/7907
Bitmaps are now identified by an enum class instead of by pointers.
Bitmap loading and caching is now handled by a class in common, and
we no longer compile most bitmaps into the binary, so there is no
longer a bitmaps static library.
Instead, bitmaps are archived to a .tar.gz file which is installed
in ${KICAD_DATA}/resources/images.tar.gz
The source PNGs are checked in to Git as the original CPP files were,
so that people can build without the required dependencies to convert
SVGs to PNGs.
Initial support is also added for dark theme icons, although this
is not yet exposed in the GUI.
Stubs are present for multi-resolution image resources, but this is
not fully-baked yet and could use some refinement.
CHANGED: add corner and repeat last command now default to 'I' instead
of '<insert>' on Mac.
1) wxWidgets doesn't currently display the correct graphic in the menu
for the insert key
2) Mac laptops don't have an instert key
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/5016
CHANGED: Ctrl-middle mouse button double click should perform
'Zoom to Objects' in Eeschema, but a change in modifier key handling
broke it. This MR restores the functionality.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/7803
This fix required sorting all of the LIB_PART draw items to ensure
accurate comparison between the symbols stored in the schematic and the
original library symbols. This has a noticeable impact on symbol library
load performance. It may also cause significant changes the next time
the library is saved due to changes in the draw item sorting. Hashing
may be a better solution here but this addressed the immediate problem.
A skeleton method SCH_SCREEN::SwapSymbolLinks() was added because there
is most likely an issue with orphaned symbols in the schematic library
symbol cache during undo/redo operations. More testing is required to
verify this.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/7263
The move tool can stack on others, so when we re-enter the previous tool
this caused another immediate action. We flag re-entry in the tool
stack to check for this and avoid unexpected tool starts
I think the guessSelectionCandidates narrows down to a single item
in 99.9% of cases, so we can probably remove this entirely. But for
now it's safer just to fix it.
When a user clicks on the "Add Component", "Add Power" or "Add Footprint"
icon, they want to add the item. Requiring an extra click on the screen
before selecting the component/footprint is not needed.
Original architecture was to pass KICAD_T in to specify what kind of
object you wanted. That didn't work well with things like cursor
shape so it was moved to setting booleans based on the ACTION. When
I cleared out the old KICAD_T stuff I missed one case where it was
still used. That is now corrected as well.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/7651
Also allows some symbol lib operations when we know the context even
if the library itself isn't selected. (For instance, select a symbol,
copy, paste.)
Adds ability to start new commit to eeschema, allowing all
AddItemsToUndoList to always append without foreknowledge. Keeps newly
split wires on the tool until placed
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/7512
The automatic wire tool was not working in the gridless mode because the
grid snapping on/off logic present in `EE_GRID_HELPER`, based on the
value of `m_enableGrid`, was not taking into account that another check,
but for the global KiCad setting, would be performed in the `Align()`
method, which is inherited from `GRID_HELPER`.
I've modified all tests of `m_enableGrid` value to also take the global
setting into account, and moved checks for it to `Align()` method, as
it's more consistent this way.
I've also removed an override of the `Align()` method in the
`PCB_GRID_HELPER` class, as it was made redundant by my changes.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/7402
For unknown reasons, the move tool was not clearing the stack when
called from the edit tool. This moves the call to move tool to after
clearing the edit tool from the stack. The move tool handles cleanup,
so we skip the original reason for waiting on the move tool before
finalizing the edit tool routines
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/7481
Some differences are due to difference between libraries being files
in symbol editor and directories in footprint editor, but this unifies
most of the rest.
It also dispenses with the save-to-library vs save-to-document distinction
in the GUI because it makes for too much variability in the GUI, was
implemented differently between the two editors, and isn't needed as much
anymore now that we have the highly visible infobar.
There was also an issue that the save-to-board icon occupies the same
location and has the same size/shape/colours as the Board Setup icon in
PCBNew.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/7215
Starting a new action (to add junctions) will break the move tool loop
and cancel placement. We need to wait until the tool completes before
choosing where to place the junctions
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/7421
Now looks at how hard it is to select the item (grids) and switches only
if the mouse is more than a grid square away and there is a new item
under the mouse.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/4455
Forcing grid snap for the kick-start behavior loses snaps to pins that
may be desired. This also adds force-snapping in select mode to match
the user's auto-start preferences
