dialog indicating that the 3D viewer is already open.

cause GCC 4.6 to generate a warning.
* Fix bug in schematic library editor best zoom calculation.
In Render, colors shown were the default colors, not the selected colors, when starting Pcbnew or Gerbview,
because colors were not updated after reading the config.
(WxWidgets 2.9.1 seems call setlocale( LC_NUMERIC, "" ) when wxConfig read doubles stored in config, but forget to back to current locale.)
Note: perhaps there are some dialogs that need this call to SetLocaleTo_Default() ).
* Minor code cleanup in pcbnew/netlist.cpp
* Remove clearance and net class name read only text boxes from PCBNew
auxiliary tool bar.
* Display full net class information in message panel when an object that
supports net classes is selected.
* Move coordinate string conversion function to EDA_DRAW_FRAME object and
made it more versatile.
* Refresh message panel text when units change.
* Fix grid select box update bug on context menu.
* Fix via size and track width select box update bugs.
* Fix layer pair indicator button update bug.
* Fix auto track width tool bar control enable bug.
* Fix via size and track width select status bug in context menu.
* Fix layer select box and layer control widget select bug when current
layer is removed.
* Add virtual function to notify objects derived from EDA_DRAW_FRAME that
the units setting has changed.
* Coding policy class naming fixes.
* Make EDA_DRAW_FRAME current tool ID member variable private.
* Added global no tool selected ID to replace application specific no
tool selected IDs.
* Change SetToolID to prevent setting the tool ID to anything less than
the new global no tool selected ID and assert on debug builds.
* Change command and update user interface command event handlers to use
new global no tool selected ID.
* Fixed schematic library editor add pin hot key handler.
* CVPcb now uses wxUpdateUIEvent instead of set toolbars.
* Removed duplicate event handlers in CVPcb that were factored into
EDA_DRAW_FRAME.
* Fix definition of GeneralControle() in CVPcb that prevented it from being
called.
* Remove rarely used and scary refresh code GeneralControle() method in all
main frame windows.
* Factor zoom menu and tool bar command IDs down to EDA_DRAW_FRAME.
* Old control state handling code completely removed in all applications.
* Factor common control state handlers into EDA_DRAW_FRAME.
* Replaced EDA_ITEM test for newness with IsNew() method.
* Factor vertical right toolbar command handlers out of giant edit command
switch statement in EESchema and PCBNew.
* Remove base screen methods from draw frame object and correct current
screen methods in derived objects.
* Move restore old wires function code into schematic screen object.
* Make add junction method use current screen position instead of store
position.
* Move poly line ghosting function into the delete current segment method
as that was the only place is was being used.
* Add method to base schematic object of testing if object has a label
that can be incremented.
* Simplified the schematic hierarchy traversing code.
* PCBNew Doxygen warning fixes.
* Move schematic wire and bus break code into schematic screen object.
* Move schematic test for dangling ends into schematic screen object.
* Remove left over debugging output in schematic screen object.
* Remove unused file eeschema/cleanup.cpp.
* Fix bug in schematic line object hit test algorithm.
* Fix a string concatenation compile error added in r2752.
* Rename class WinEDA_BasicFrame to EDA_BASE_FRAME.
* Rename class WinEDA_DrawFrame to EDA_DRAW_FRAME.
* Rename class WinEDA_DrawPanel to EDA_DRAW_PANEL.
* Encapsulate file name member of base screen object.
* Encapsulate associated screen member of schematic sheet object.
* Create add screen method to schematic sheet object to simplify setting
the associated screen.
* Move the change file name code in the schematic sheet object to the edit
sheet method in the schematic editor frame object to eliminate message
dialogs.
* Improve reference counting in schematic screen object.
* Add helper type definitions for changing schematic object storage to C++
containers.
inches and mm, the industry is crazy enough to force us with mixed
design. For example I routinely use imperial units for track size and
clearance, but drilling is strictly a metric issue...
So I added a little parser to recognize a suffix specification in the
unit text boxes... so you can put in things like:
1in (1 inch)
1" (idem)
25th (25 thou)
25mi (25 mils, the same)
6mm (6 mm, obviously)
The rules are: spaces between the number and the unit are accepted, only
the first two letters are significant.
As a bonus, it also recognize the period (.) as a decimal point
substituting it with the correct locale character (there was a wishlist
for it, IIRC). Most useful for number pad fans :D
* PCBNew remembers last net list read during the current editing session
as well as between project editing sessions. Closes bug 576902.
* Separate PCBNew application settings from project file settings and
allocate them dynamically instead of statically to make it easier to
eliminate global variables.
