- When the Kicad manager is iconized, all other child frames are iconized (normal wxWidgets behavior)
- For viewer frames in modal mode, there is a more annoying issue: they have the wxFLOAT_ON_PARENT frame style on unix, and wxSTAY_ON_TOP on Windows.
wxFLOAT_ON_PARENT frame style is incorrect (although on most WM it works) because the parent frame (Kicad manager Frame) is not the caller. It is usually a main editor frame.
It does not work on Windows (wx STAY_ON_TOP is used).
* Now each editor frame has a null parent.
Therefore iconizing the Kicad manager frame does not iconize other frames.
* Viewer frames have null parent in normal mode and the caller parent in modal mode (therefore wxFLOAT_ON_PARENT frame style is always and correctly used)
* References to opened/closed main frames are no more managed by the (complicated) kicad code. Instead of, a non critical and more easy to understand code just uses FindWindowByName to know if a main window exists or not.
These changes do not fix all issues about Kicad frames brought to the foreground or the background, but it fixes a few issues, and AFAIK do not add other issues.
The attached patch makes the following changes to import DXF:
1. correctly implements scaling based on DXF $INSUNITS -
at least where INSUNITS is sensible. I ignore units like miles,
gigameters, AU, lightyear, parsec ...
2. correctly implements LWPolylines, adding an ARC segment
rather than a line segment when bulge != 0. A number of users
have been complaining about getting the wrong board shape
(chamfered corners rather than rounded corners) on DXF Import,
now they shouldn't complain.
Following rev 6627 (git 2777182), if a non-duplicatable item was the object of
a Duplicate action, the original item would be picked up, potentially
misleading the user into thinking something was actually duplicated.
Do not assert that the item to be duplicated can be duplicated, just don't
duplicate it. The user can trigger a Duplicate on items that aren't
duplicatable, like field texts - he'll figure out that they can't be duplicated
when they aren't, no need to deliver a scary warning and risk an abort.

TODO: Don't pick up the duplicated selection if none of the items in it were
actually duplicated, it's misleading.
* On MinGW64 and possibly other 64-bit platforms, time_t is defined as a long
long unsigned integer but all of the scanf and printf format specifiers used
to save and load the schematic files are %lX which is a long unsigned integer
which causes compile warnings. Add casts and temporary variables to eliminate
the compile type warnings.
I tried to merge some constants used both in legacy mode and gal mode (which were, before this patch, separate constants).
There is still a serious work to avoid different calculation code for the same text in draw and plot functions.
Work in progress to merge these calculation functions.
* No initial copied object changed (this was a serious bug to modify these objects. Previous version modified references and other texts using a very stupid algorithm).
It also fixes bug 1549231
* only new pads are numbered (therefore renumbering is used only in footprint editor)
* remove not working and useless feature in circular array: now only use number for pads (others options using alphabetical letters are removed: did not work corectly, and were useless)
* a more clear option is used to choose if the pads are numbered from a choosen value, or from the first avaible value
* Adding a warning messsage if a parameter is incorrect.
* Move add_directory()s in main CMakeList.txt after all find_package()
macros are run so all flags in the main CMakeList.txt are propagated
to the sub-folder CMakeList.txt files.
* Remove commented out include of config.h
* Make the link maps only build on linux as -${TO_LINKER},-cref
-${TO_LINKER},-Map=blah just gives warnings on osx w/ clang
* Make the link maps only build with flag -DKICAD_MAKE_LINK_MAPS is
defined during CMake configuration as they are highly specific.
* Moved the code for setting link maps into the main CMakeList.txt
file to avoid duplication.
* Removed -D__ASSERTMACRO__ from osx as its no longer needed
* Removed a couple of other OSX only things that wouldn't work anyway
* Moved set (BU_CHMOD_BUNDLE_ITEMS) to the main CMakeList.txt as
otherwise it would only work for the KiCad build not the other
applications
* Made KICAD_SCRIPTING_MODULES enable KICAD_SCRIPTING as currently if
you have modules enabled without the scripting base it will on build.
This could be changed to a fatal error saying you need to also enable
scripting but it seems unnecessary.
* Removed duplication of pcbnew.py install code under modules and
scripting since you can't have modules without scripting now
* File import: use case insensitive comparison to choose import plugin, from the file extension (It is not always in lower cases, especially on Windows.)
* onleftclick.cpp: fis a minor issue, which happens after switching form GAL to Legacy canvas: sometimes a board item is left selected from GAL, and creates false warning message in legacy.
