The simulator has advanced considerably, and it is seeing lots of active
development, so make it a required part of KiCad. Additionally, the
build without the simulator has actually been broken for a while, so no
one clearly is building without ngspice right now.
* Add Boost::locale explicetly to the CMake since nanoodbc requires it
* Don't let nanoodbc add all Boost libraries to the link line, since it
is used in common, and it was pulling the unit test framework into
common then.
Also improves some terminology for english-speakers.
Also substitues [] vector access (which creates empty elements) over
at() (which throws if the item is not found).
dropping files to Kicad manager :
*.kicad_pro, *.pro -> open project;
gerber and job files -> open in Gerbview editor;
Eagle and Cadstar files -> open project.
dropping file to schematic editor -> append schematic;
dropping library file to Symbol editor -> add library;
dropping board file to PCB editor -> append board;
dropping library or footprint file to Footprint editor -> add library or import footprint;
dropping ZIP file or gerber files to Gerbview editor -> open files;
dropping sheet file to Drawing Sheet editor -> open sheet.

Since EDA_TEXT is a base class, we can just force the child classes to pass the correct iu scaled size
ALLOW_BOLD_THICKNESS removed because it's a pre-custom font holdover
Allows placing parts from an external database that reference symbols from another loaded library.
Includes:
- nanodbc wrapper
- database schematic library plugin
- basic tests

Converts dialog_image_editor to panel_image_editor. Embeds this panel in
a new properties dialog for the schematic and PCB editors that allows
editing position, layer, locked status, etc. like other items.
The main purpose is to make changes in g_BitmapInfo more easy.
Although it is automatically generated, it is sometime more easy to modify
it by hand (the recreation of bitmaps stuff is time consumming), especially
during testing.
Thread pools are long-lasting executors that have close to zero overhead
when launching new jobs. This is advantageous over creating new threads
as we can use this for threading smalling jobs and smaller quanta. It
also avoids the heuristics needed to determine the optimal number of
threads to spawn
Although pcb_base_frame.cpp is in the pcbnew source tree, it is compiled
and included in pcbcommon.lib. Because pcb_base_frame has a dependency
on pcbnew_navlib, the latter also needs to be included in pcbcommon to
avoid linkage issues.
The superfluous references to pcbnew_navlib in the qa projects have been
removed.
ADDED arc, circle and rectangle shapes for schematic. Shapes support
line styles and fill colors.
CHANGED sheet background color in Edit Text & Graphics Properties to
fill color (and it now affects shapes).
Pushed STROKE_PARAMS down into common and moved all shapes to using it
for stroke descriptions.
This standardizes selection tools in SELECTION_TOOL class to be able to
handle a long-click as asking for a non-heuristic disambiguation menu.

They don't define a KiCad string class, so the header file name was
somewhat misleading. But the fact that they didn't match definitely
made coding more difficult.
It's fair to assume all libcurl versions in circulation will already be
using OpenSSL>=1.1.0. This code is also unnecessary on platforms that
use other libcurl SSL backends, such as Debian's libcurl-gnutls package.
ADDED Paste Special... action in pcbnew
CHANGED Additional options for Paste Special... in eeschema, including
"Assign unique reference designators to pasted instance"
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).

Before, the layers were always ellipsized if the name was >30
characters, even if the widget was wide enough to display
the full name. Now they are ellipsized when needed (e.g. if
the widget is shrunk small enough).

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.
The BuildSteps folder now contains the CMake scripts that are
called during the build process as individual stages, while
the root CMakeModules directory contains the CMake files used
during the configuration phase.
This unifies everything under a single architecture with a "don't
show again" dialog. Since everything now goes through the same
path it should be reasonably easy to make it do whatever we want
in the future.
Right now it presents 3 options: modify only unlocked items, override
locks and modify all items, or cancel command.
This commit adds the PCB_ORIGIN_TRANSFORMS class, which is derived
from the ORIGIN_TRANSFORMS class, and provides a set of templated
functions to convert PCB coordinates between internal representation
and display representation. It extends the ORIGIN_TRANSFORMS class
to understand the three user-selectable display origins and the
coordinate direction display options.
This commit adds the ORIGIN_TRANSFORMS class to support Display Origin
Transforms in all KiCad applications.
Functions are provided to perform four basic types of origin coordinate
transforms:
* Transform a relative coordinate from internal to display form
* Transform a relative coordinate from display to internal form
* Transform an absolute coordinate from internal to display form
* Transform an absolute coordinate from display to internal form
These functions are supported for data types "int", "long long int",
and "double". The default implementations for all but "int" simply
return their input unchanged; the implementation for "int" invokes
the implementation for "long long int".
The expectation is that the different KiCad applications will create
derived classes from this base class and override the functions as
needed. Protected template functions are provided for the standard
translations to maintain consistency within the derived classes.
Short net names are not unique; full names with paths must be used.
Added a grid cell renderer that does the escaping, to make it easier
to display net names in grid cells.
Once you unescape a net name, you can't go back to the escaped form
because you can't assume which `/` should be {slash} and which `/`
Because of this, we cannot use Unescape/Escape on the data model in
the netclass setup panel, and instead do the Unescape in the view.

* Frames moved: cvpcb, cvpcb footprints frame, gerbview, pagelayout editor
This also introduces new EDITOR_CONDITIONS that are used to set the
conditions of very common editor settings.
Also, some IDs were converted to tools in the pagelayout editor.
This allows for the tool framework to keep track of a universal
set of conditions for the UI state (enabled/checked/shown) for
controls of actions. It removes the need for the main menubar
menus to be CONDITIONAL_MENUs and be rebuilt on each open,
and instead makes the updates of the check and enabling of
items handled in the native wxWidgets way.
This commit switchs the 3d viewer and kicad project manager window
over to this system.
