Str2Double assumes current locale. We usually switch the locale when
reading files but we should be using the function that explicitly gets
the C-locale conversion.
We used to have to open a PCB_EDIT_FRAME to get the settings for
the footprint editor and footprint viewer. This necessitated some
special processing when opening a PCB_EDIT_FRAME to actually edit
a board as it might already be open but unloaded.
Since the new settings architecture allows the footprint editor and
footprint viewer to init themselves we no longer need the special-
case code.
Don't copy the recursion test cache when copy-constructing
SCH_SHEET_PATHs as it's not needed in connectivity
Fix a few places that were copying unnecessarily
ADDED Eeschema-specific netclass settings including wire and bus
thickness, color, and line style.
Netclasses override individual wire & bus colors and line styles.
If that proves an issue we might look at something more sophisticated
with inheritance.

(The code was updated to use INDETERMINATE_ACTION, but the dialog
wxChoice still specified an entry of "...". This moves both to the
code so it's harder for them to get out of sync.)
Rather than displaying dialog that has every update option possible like
updating footprints in the board editor, this change updates the library
symbol immediately using the symbol library identifier and requires no
additional input from the user.
ADDED: Context menu entry for schematic symbols to update the symbol from
the symbol library using the existing library identifier.
- Fix file extension for new project
- Fixes for exceptions on MSW
- Fix some ASAN issues
- Allow SETTINGS_MANAGER to run headless
- Don't flag schematic as modified after schematic setup is closed
- Don't automatically unload projects when LoadProject is called
- Don't unload project if it's the same as the current one
- Make sure to properly init/de-init template field names
Per discussion on the developers list, this old system
no longer provides much value and is seen as annoying
by many users. The new save logic should prevent any
cases of file corruption on save, which was a major
reason for the backup file system existing.

Various architecture upgrades to support this.
Creating a BOARD now requires a valid PROJECT, which caused
some (mostly transparent) changes to the Python API internals.
ADDED: Project local settings file
CHANGED: Board design settings are no longer stored in PCB file
CHANGED: Net classes are no longer stored in PCB file
CHANGED: Importing board settings now reads boards, not just projects

ADDED new rectangle graphics tool for PCBNew and Footprint Editor.
Also adds rectangle tool to both Footprint Editor and PCBNew Place
menus.
The Aux Origin tool can come back once we have multi-select toobar
buttons.
Also collapses an unnecessary level out of the auxOrigin and gridOrigin
settings.

Remove extraneous use of FLAG0 from tracks cleaner (it was checked but
never set).
Fix issue in expand connections where two parts of it couldn't agree
on the same flag (BUSY vs SKIP_STRUCT), and where the second part was
clearing the flag instead of setting it.
Remove obsolete HIGHLIGHT infrastructure (we now use selection).
Remove extraneous use of BUSY flag in several places (it was never
set).
Add missing plot and print changes for the new bus entry properties.
ADDED: Junction properties diameter and color can now be edited.
Fixes: https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/4593
The line stroke property object STROKE_PARAMS was factored out an used in
the schematic line object. This will allow it to be used in other objects
that require line stroke properties so every object does not need to have
it's own definition for line stroke properties.
Don't rename symbol libraries when performing a project "Save As.."
except for the legacy cache library. Changing library file names
breaks the symbol library table. This was the less painful option
than updating the symbol library table.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/4605
A note to developers, please do not set the minimum and/or size of bitmap
buttons. It causes bitmaps to get clipped using GTK on Linux. If the
bitmap button size is not acceptable, then supply an appropriately sized
bitmap rather than attempt to force the wxWidgets sizing mechanism to do
what you want. This almost always causes platform differences that do
not work well.
This provides a method to add symbols that represent footprints on the
board that do not have an associate component such as mounting holes,
fiducials, logos, etc that should be excluded from the bill of materials.
It also prevents those footprints from being removed from the board
accidentally when updating the board from the schematic.
ADDED: Support to exclude schematic symbols from bill of materials
export.
CHANGED: Derived library symbols will inherit optional fields defined by
their parent symbol and override existing optional fields.
CHANGED: The symbol editor will now only display the fields defined in
derived symbols rather than show mandatory fields inherited from the
parent symbol. Showing fields that cannot be edited would be confusing.
CHANGED: All mandatory fields in derived symbols can be edited. This
not only includes the field value but also all text properties.
Kill the dual datasheet variable storage which caused many datasheet
bugs over the years. The datasheet is now always stored in the data
sheet field.
In order allow the new file format to support derived symbols with
field properties that are different than the parent symbol, the code
that copied the parent field properties to the derive symbol field
properties had to moved out of LIB_PART::SetParent() into the legacy
symbol library plugin and the symbol library editor add new symbol
code to preserve the current behavior and not overwrite derived
symbol field properties.
This lays the ground work for allowing field properties of derived
symbols to be different than their parent symbol.
CHANGED: The symbol library save menu entry is now only enable when the
currently selected library is modified.
CHANGED: The symbol library save all menu entry and tool bar button are
enabled when one or more of the symbol libraries have been modified.
REMOVED: The ability to save symbol libraries in the legacy file format.
Every time SCH_COMPONENT::GetDrawItem() was called, the schematic symbol
pin table was updated. Under certain conditions, this happens inside
loops so the amount of time spent rebuilding the pin table can add up.
Force default settings to be written instead of undefined which mimics
the behavior of the previous file format with the exception of text
objects which requires some more thought. Please note that no new
features are added to the library file format so the file version did
not need to be updated.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/4411
You can now choose the behavior of dragging with the
middle and right mouse buttons.
You can also choose which modifier keys to use for
panning and zooming with the scroll wheel or trackpad.
You can also customize the zoom speed, which makes
it possible to have a good zoom experience on a wider
range of input devices.
You can also now zoom by dragging with the right or
middle button if desired.

Note: this is a basic implementation but it could be
improved once we include bus information in the netlist
and pcbnew can natively keep track of buses and nets
instead of just nets.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/4158
As a visual aid, we can peek into the child to see if a pin
represents a bus in the child (in the case of aliases etc
we might not be able to tell by the name of the pin).
Only do this if there isn't anything else driving a connection
onto the sheet pin in the parent sheet.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/2619
Apparently at some point in our development history, we allowed aliases
to be saved in the cache library. The rescue code was only looking for
root symbols in the cache library which caused missing symbol rescues.
Flattening the symbols ensures the rescue library will have a unique
symbol for every symbol in the schematic. This bug also was in play
when rescuing from the symbol library table.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/4494
This was causing junctions to not always be added on wire
segments that overlapped component pins, because the pin
might not be part of the component bounding box before
UpdateLocalLibSymbolLinks() is called. When the bbox
was never updated, these symbols weren't collected by
the rtree query for objects overlapping a point.
* Move it to a panel along with the canvas to have a better UI
* Allow the infobar to automatically close after a set time
CHANGED: The eeschema find notifications now use the infobar instead of
a popup window
This widget allows for non-intrusive display of text
above the editing canvas. Currently, this is used
for displaying the read only status of the files.
Set up a new lineage for SCH_ITEMS to get back to the SCHEMATIC
they live on: Items will all be parented to the SCH_SCREEN that
they are added to, and each SCH_SCREEN will point back to the
SCHEMATIC that it is part of. Note that this hierarchy is not
the same as the actual schematic hierarchy, which continues to
be managed through SCH_SHEETs and SCH_SHEET_PATHS.
Add required library symbols to new file formatter and parser when copying
schematic symbols to prevent missing library symbol when pasting into a
different schematic which may not have the same library symbol available.
Fix a minor bug where the default schematic symbol reference was not set
by the parser when loading.
