CHANGED: Highlight net tool changed to highlight display toggle; moved to left toolbar
CHANGED: Multi-net highlight is now accessible when using the highlight net action
ADDED: Highlight Net and Clear Highlight actions to Net Tools context menu
ADDED: Default hotkey (Ctrl+`) for toggling net highlighting
The current and previous net highlight state are now stored and can be toggled
on or off with an action (no hotkey by default).
Highlight is now treated as a persistent state rather than a tool that is entered,
meaning there is no longer a special tool to enter in order to highlight nets.
Highlighting can be controlled while any other tool is active using the hotkeys
or context menu on a net object.
Tweak the icons for highlight net and layer display mode to better disambiguate them.

wx/wx.h includes all wxWidgets .h files, and sometimes creates collision
names in #define between kicad and windows headers
Moreover, blindly including a lot of useless files is compil time consuming
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.
We cannot do forward/reverse annotation in Single Top mode because we
depend on shared memory access. This disables the menu options in this
case and replaces the toolbar update pcb icon with the import netlist,
which is more appropriate for single top mode
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/7637
It now just has top layer / bottom layer from the router's layer
pair. The current layer is visible in the drop-down just to the
left, and the via stuff was confusing anyway.
- Improve contrast of ratsnest icons by removing blue
- Track icon: make blue as it is a board feature
- Muwave icon: remove handles, make serpentine blue, thicken and pixel align
- New, simplified zone and rule area icons
- Simplify draw tools by removing edit handles/guidelines - improves contrast
- Reorder draw tools in toolbar/menubar to make a little more sense
- Rotate measurement icon (ruler) to match bottom left -> top right
The footprint browser loads much faster than the add a footprint dialog,
so should remain until/unless we fix the loading speed.
This reverts commit 4d8ee4685d.
Two main changes: netclass values need to go through the DRC engine
so they can interact with other rules. They're also now dependent
on the layer being routed as well as the start object.
Also make the controls adjust to each other better. For instance,
copy-track-width needs to turn off when you select a particular
track width, and a particular track width needs to zero out when
you choose copy-track-width.

This will always show 1 unit from each system, with the primary unit
being the current frame unit and the secondary unit being the
most recent unit used from the other system. These are saved in
the settings, so they are saved between runs.
CHANGED: GetDocumentExtents() in 'eda_draw_frame.h' now has a bool
parameter "aIncludeAllVisible" with a default value "true" which makes
it behave as it did before adding parameter. If "aIncludeAllVisible"
is false, the returned bbox ignores some items depending on which
program it is running in.
CHANGED: Made "Zoom to Objects" use only PCB edge in Pcbnew. This
allows text, notes, etc outside the PCB edge to be excluded in the
zoom calculation.
CHANGED: Added "Zoom to Objects" to Pcbnew main menu, and to RMB context
menus for Eeschema and Pcbnew.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/5787
These objects can now be used in advanced DRC rules and
not just for keeping things out. Also remove the restriction
that at least one of the "basic" keepout rules must be set,
so that these areas can be used for more advanced rules.
There was a regression in v6 where the zoom to selection toolbar
item wasn't canceling the tool when pressed and the tool was active
(it was in v5). This implements a more generic framework for canceling
tools on button presses.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/5103
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.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/2246
CHANGED: Settings are now stored in versioned sub-directories
ADDED: First-run dialog for migrating settings from a previous version
CHANGED: Settings are now stored as JSON files instead of wxConfig-style INI files
CHANGED: Color settings are now all stored in a separate settings file
CHANGED: The symbol editor and footprint editor now have their own settings files
CHANGED: Color settings are no longer exposed through BOARD object
CHANGED: Page layout editor now uses Eeschema's color scheme
Settings are now managed through a central SETTINGS_MANAGER held by PGM_BASE.
Existing settings will be migrated from the wxConfig format on first run of each application.
Per-application settings are now stored in one class for each application.
Create an IsContentModified() function in each frame
that provides if the content has been modified, and
use that instead of always copying the checks.
* Make the grid display settings separate from the board object
* Ensure that the grid is initialized on creation in all the frames
Fixes: lp:1843169

The pointer passing for display options is deprecated. This removes the
excess casting as the EDA_FRAME didn't need the base call with no value.
All requests for display options are now returned const and are updated
with a Set() routine after modification.
In Gerbview, this resolves an issue where the display options were not
stored because it was receiving the NULL from EDA_FRAME.
