PCB_BASE_FRAME::PlaceModule() calls CN_CONNECTIVITY_ALGO::Update()
on the new footprint that does not have nets assigned. The Update()
method first removes the footprint (but it has not been added, so
nothing happens) and then adds it with all pads marked as not connected.
Later, when BOARD_COMMIT is pushed - it tries to add the same footprint
again with nets assigned, but the pads are already registered, therefore
they are discarded.
To prevent this, PlaceModule() does not call CN_CONNECTIVITY_ALGO::Update()
for the just created footprint, as it is handled by BOARD_COMMIT later.
There are a few steps to assign correct nets to zones/track/vias:
- create a net name to pad map
- perform 2 stage netlist update (fix timestamps and then references)
- compare new net names with the previously created net map, save the
differences as a old net to new net map
- remap zones/tracks/vias using the map created in the previous step
The main advantage here is it correctly handles unnamed nets (i.e. ones
without any net labels attached), which might be changed by KiCad
netlist generator.
It's too expensive to fetch the timestamps when the github
server is busy. See Dick Hollenbeck's comments at the top of

After Eagle project import, schematic and board netlists are inconsistent:
footprints do not have sheetpaths assigned, schematics are unannotated.
One can update netlist either by references or timestamps, but timestamps
are empty in pcbnew, and updating by reference must by preceded by
annotation which may lead to broken links between board and schematics
(Eagle does not require references to end with a number, so KiCad annotater
will add numbers in such cases).

- update by reference without the annotation step, to assign
correct sheetpaths to footprints
- update by timestamp, after symbols are annotated, in order to
update references in the board

instead of wxDoubleSpinCtrl.

Major cleanup of many icons (started as a simple effort to tweak libedit and modedit icons)
Ref: https://lists.launchpad.net/kicad-developers/msg32860.html
* Each application icon has been updated
* Consolidated icon "modifiers" across many icons
* Replaced confusing arrows with "load" and "save" icons
* Slight code updates to reference correct icons
* Consolidate multiple representations of single icon type(s)
This is meant as a stopgap for 5.0, with plans to add proper scaled
icons in the 6.0 cycle. A function KiScaledBitmap() is added, which
works like KiBitmap() except it scales the bitmap according to the
calling window's font size. Controls have been added to all the main
applications to let the user select scaling manually (these were omitted
from smaller apps that didn't already have a place to put them).
In addition, in eeschema only, the pixel height of the system font is
shown in the options dialog for diagnostics. This is only for collecting
feedback before 5.0 release from users with different displays and will
be removed.
In high-contrast mode, items that don't exist on the current layer are
not selectable, but this is problematic since there are library
components that only exist in the silkscreen layer (logos, etc).
By adding one of the silkscreen layers to the ViewGetLayers() output,
these components are now editable when viewing the silkscreen layer in
high-contrast mode. Silkscreens attached to footprints that have pads
or drawings on non-silkscreen layers are still not selectable.

Also, remove a wxPanel border as it makes device-independent sizing
nearly impossible. For some reason wxPanel::GetClientSize() is returning
garbage here and breaks centering text without fudge factors. I think it
still looks good without the border, maybe better.
- Add helper methods for DPI-independent sizes
- Make splitter sashes visible on macOS
- Remove SetSizeInChars() - wx has a built-in way that I missed
- DIALOG_CHOOSE_COMPONENT: DPI-indep splitter sizes
- DIALOG_RESCUE_EACH: DPI-indep default size and sensible HTML window
size
- COMPONENT_TREE: DPI-indep sizing
- DIALOG_FP_LIB_TABLE, DIALOG_SYMBOL_LIB_TABLE
Change term "Flip Horizontal" to "Mirror About Horizontal(X) Axis" in
the schematic editor symbol context menu to improve clarity.
Change term "Flip Vertical" to "Mirror About Vertical(Y) Axis" in the
schematic editor symbol context menu to improve clarity.
Change to the same mirror terminology in the block context menu.
Change "Exchange Footprint" to "Change Footprint" in the board footprint
context menu for improved clarity.

The previous algorithm stopped whenever it entered a pad, which
sometimes leaves small track segments inside the pad. This one
keeps going as long as each segment gets us closer to the center
of the pad.

This patch adds functionality to the Pcbnew draw tool to show the dx and
dy of the current segment being drawn if the relative origin (pressing
spacebar) is not already set (i.e. if those coordinates are ( 0, 0 ) ).
You can set the relative origin while using the draw tool by pressing
spacebar. The relative origin is reset on exit of the tool.

Passing an empty path to the 3D model select dialog results in the file
select control displaying the root path which requires the user to drill
down to get to the 3D models. Use the KISYS3DMOD path as the default
and fall back to the project path as required for the initial file
select control path.
Clean up some coding policy violations.

Improve dialog layout and fix UI policy issues with all of the dialog
boxes in the Gerbview and Pcbnew code paths.
Updated the use of component to footprint where appropriate.
Replace all instances of "component" and "part" with "symbol" when
referring to schematic and library symbols.
Replace all instances of "component" with "footprint" when referring to
board and library footprints.
Minor dialog layout fixes to some of the dialogs impacted by the UI
string changes.
Refresh is used in the python domain to refresh the display with the current
design. If something has changed, board connectivity likely needs rebuilding.
If using GAL canvas, update its display db.
Improved the selection heuristics to keep footprints in the
disambiguation menu when they contain pads with high pad-to-footprint
area ratio.
In other words: make it possible to select a footprint when
most of its area is taken by a pad. Previously pads were given the
priority, so it was very tricky to select the parent footprint.

To avoid situations when a large footprint covering most of the board
area (e.g. shield connector) is always selected, even when user clicks
in a seemingly empty spot, a simple filter has been added. In case
the footprint area covers more than 90% of the view area, the large
footprint is not selected. This way large footprints do not disturb
editing when the zoom is high enough.

A few methods differed by the number or type of arguments in derived
classes. They were changed to match the base class method signature and
marked as 'override'.
Module placer did not mark the newly placed modules as selected,
but all edit functions (rotate/place/etc.) rely on getting a selected
item. When a rotation/flip command was issued, the newly placed module
was dropped and the one underneath the cursor has been rotated.
To fix this the newly placed modules are marked as selected.
It also simplifies the placer code a bit.

Revert() method was still not aware of CHT_DONE flag, therefore
the switch statement was always invalid. To fix it, the commit
type is split to type and flags as is done in Push() method.
Zones: it turned out that for every zone point, the set of hatch lines
has been drawn, resulting in numerous redundant lines. Now the set is
drawn only once per zone.
Custom shape pads: as GAL supports SHAPE_POLY_SETs, there is no need to
create a temporary vector to copy there a list of points to be drawn.
Changed the drawing calls to use SHAPE_POLY_SETs directly.
Thanks to Andreas Buhr patch, code for drawing filled polygons and their
outlines has been unified. Previously it was done by changing the
drawing method (GAL::DrawPolygon() vs GAL::DrawPolyline()), now it is
done by modifying attributes (stroke/fill).
If the object changes between a TA_CONTEXT_MENU_UPDATE
event and a TA_CONTEXT_MENU_CHOICE event (usually as
a result of a cancel), the old code would leave the
last item hidden.

This target seems to only create empty makefiles, tested on linux. And I
can not find any references to it in any of the current CMakeLists. Lets
remove it.
- Reverts behaviour of 3e71ed2421
- 3D model offset now explicitly written in mm, using "offset" tag
- Any read "at" tag is converted from inches to mm
- This will not break any 3D model offset when reading files
- It will however render files incompatible with old versions
LAYER_NON_PLATED to LAYER_NON_PLATEDHOLES
LAYER_PADS_HOLES to LAYER_PADS_PLATEDHOLES
LAYER_PADS to LAYER_PADS_TH
and add comments and fix a render issue in gal mode for non plated holes.
Opening Properties dialog normally does not ask the user to confirm the
action, even for locked items. The exception was a case when there was
nothing selected and Properties dialog was invoked via its hot key -
then SELECTION_TOOL::RequestSelection() tried to get the item under the
cursor, verifying the lock flag.

This patch enables math expression evaluation for most of the text input
controls in pcbnew.
NEW: pcbnew text input controls are able to evaluate simple
mathematical expressions, including distance units (e.g. 5.0+(2*1.2mm)).
Added new file connectivity.i to expose CONNECTIVITY_DATA to
python. enables access to d_pads from nets.
Added typemap to board_connected_item.i. since board_connected_item
doesn't use virtual inheritance, when returning a std::list of these
items, the typemap populates the return list with the child
types. This enables python scripts to use the full interface of those
classes (pad, track, zone)
Added typeinfo.i to enable passing a list of KICAD_T values to methods
GetNetItems. This list acts as a query filter. typeinfo.i is included
from pcbnew.i right after kicad.i (instead of in board.i like the
others) typeinfo.h is already being included kicad.i so to ensure the
typemap(s) are properly applied I put them next to each other.
The two new files (typeinfo.i and connectivity.i) were added to
pcbnew's CMakeLists.txt as dependencies.
A change in commit 5731000135 caused kicad to stop allowing users
to move items like footprints, arcs and lines using anchors other
than the center point.
This was caused by the new code that stores reference points for
clipboard pasting, a call to updateModificationPoint() prevented
some old code paths from executing, which caused the selection to
snap into the cursor, always using the center anchor.
This fix moves the call within the if-cases that need it, and adds
a ClearReferencePoint call when the selection is "dropped" to allow
the user to grab the same selection again from a different anchor.
