Also fixes the post-duplicate move to start at the cursor pos.
Also fixes the fact that duplicate wasn't getting its hotkey.
Fixes: lp:1830596
* https://bugs.launchpad.net/kicad/+bug/1830596
Adds a hotkey to the TOOL_ACTION, and also checks for
action validity prior to running the actions (previously
implicitly gated by the enablement of the menu item).
1) hide the status popup when the dialog is brought up
2) forward events from the popup to the canvas so hotkeys work
3) make sure diff pair radius is always 100%
4) fix greyed-out Miter style label
5) make L a hotkey so it works before you start dragging
Fixes: lp:1545856
* https://bugs.launchpad.net/kicad/+bug/1545856
* Make OK button the default action in the 3D viewer option dialog per UI
policy.
* Fix standard button sizer padding in 3D viewer options dialog.
* Let sizers do their job by using default size for 3D viewer options
dialog.
* Set 3D viewer hot key to Alt+3 in all parent windows where 3D viewer is
accessible.
* Minor code cleaning and coding policy fixes.
(useful for boards having more than 2 layers)
Eeschema:fix compatibility with old schematic files, when they contain ERC markers.
Pcbnew: better test for allowed layers when creating/editing Dimensions and some other Graphic items
Drc: fix comments and messages for some drc tests.
Fix minor bugs in cleanup dialog options and plot solder mask function (thanks to Lorenzo to locate these bugs)
Save grid origin in .kicad_pcb files only if not 0,0 (to keep compatibility with previous versions of pcbnew, mainly the stable version)
Very minor other fixes (set modify flag when grid origin is moved from the dialog grid)
Moved switching canvas routines to pcbnew, as they are used only there right now (otherwise libgal would have to be linked to every Kicad application).
New classes:
- VIEW - represents view that is seen by user, takes care of layer ordering & visibility and how it is displayed (which location, how much zoomed, etc.)
- VIEW_ITEM - Base class for every item that can be displayed on VIEW (the biggest change is that now it may be necessary to override ViewBBox & ViewGetLayers method for derived classes).
- EDA_DRAW_PANEL_GAL - Inherits after EDA_DRAW_PANEL, displays VIEW output, right now it is not editable (in opposite to usual EDA_DRAW_PANEL).
- GAL/OPENGL_GAL/CAIRO_GAL - Base Graphics Abstraction Layer class + two different flavours (Cairo is not fully supported yet), that offers methods to draw primitives using different libraries.
- WX_VIEW_CONTROLS - Controller for VIEW, handles user events, allows zooming, panning, etc.
- PAINTER/PCB_PAINTER - Classes that uses GAL interface to draw items (as you may have already guessed - PCB_PAINTER is a class for drawing PCB specific object, PAINTER is an abstract class). Its methods are invoked by VIEW, when an item has to be drawn. To display a new type of item - you need to implement draw(ITEM_TYPE*) method that draws it using GAL methods.
- STROKE_FONT - Implements stroke font drawing using GAL methods.
Most important changes to Kicad original code:
* EDA_ITEM now inherits from VIEW_ITEM, which is a base class for all drawable objects.
* EDA_DRAW_FRAME contains both usual EDA_DRAW_PANEL and new EDA_DRAW_PANEL_GAL, that can be switched anytime.
* There are some new layers for displaying multilayer pads, vias & pads holes (these are not shown yet on the right sidebar in pcbnew)
* Display order of layers is different than in previous versions (if you are curious - you may check m_galLayerOrder@pcbnew/basepcbframe.cpp). Preserving usual order would result in not very natural display, such as showing silkscreen texts on the bottom.
* Introduced new hotkey (Alt+F12) and new menu option (View->Switch canvas) for switching canvas during runtime.
* Some of classes (mostly derived from BOARD_ITEM) now includes ViewBBox & ViewGetLayers methods.
* Removed tools/class_painter.h, as now it is extended and included in source code.
Build changes:
* GAL-based rendering option is turned on by a new compilation CMake option KICAD_GAL.
* When compiling with CMake option KICAD_GAL=ON, GLEW and Cairo libraries are required.
* GAL-related code is compiled into a static library (common/libgal).
* Build with KICAD_GAL=OFF should not need any new libraries and should come out as a standard version of Kicad
Currently most of items in pcbnew can be displayed using OpenGL (to be done are DIMENSIONS and MARKERS).
