This tool isn't available in the Legacy canvas, but we still need to handle

This forces the compiler class specific features rather than borrowing
from the base class's std::string. In some cases prior to this,
wxString( std::string ) was being called rather than UTF8::operator
wxString() leading to garbled wxStrings.

Implicit conversions still work as before, and hopefully more reliably.
This commit was too broad and not cognizant of the purpose of the class

This patch does the following:
* extracts a method to determine the anchor point of the move
* improves the logic of the anchor point determination for selections of multiple objects which do not contain footprints
In the previous version the method did not work correctly
when an action was invoked from context menu. In such case,
the cursor position was obtained in the moment of selecting
the action, instead of using the right click location.
As CONNECTIVITY_DATA was not updated during the process,
it contained stale pointers leading to crash. Now the connectivity

Fix incorrect frame deletion, only noticeable when eeschema is run in stand alone mode.
After selecting a footprint using the footprint viewer, the application cannot be closed.
Reason:
the footprint viewer ctor creates an instance (not shown) of a FRAME_PCB.
Unfortunately, this pcb frame was not deleted by Eeschema, in stand alone mode,
preventing the application to be closed because a frame was still active after closing the schematic editor frame.
Now the footprint viewer ctor delete this instance after use, if it was not previously existing.

Removes the need of using the legacy code in polygon/PolyLine.{h,cpp},
refactoring all CPolyLine instances with SHAPE_POLY_SET instances.
The remaining legacy methods have been ported to SHAPE_POLY_SET;
mainly: Chamfer, Fillet, {,Un}Hatch.
The iteration over the polygon vertices have been simplified using the
family of ITERATOR classes.
The zone creation in DRAWING_TOOL was a complex event loop whici
simultaneously managed the event handling, construction of the preview
polygon and the creation and commiting of the zone, all in the same
scope. This has been broken into several pieces:
* POLYGON_ITEM preview item, used to preview the polygon in progress
* POLYGON_GEOM_MANAGER is a class that collects points from user input
and used them to describe a polygon's geometry, including calculation
of 45-degree constrained leader lines
* ZONE_CREATE_HELPER is a class which deals with creating zones based on
geometry from a geometry manager and parameters from the DRAWING_TOOL
* The (much simpler) event loop in DRAWING_TOOL drives the
POLYGON_GEOM_MANAGER. With a minor refactor, this loop can be reused
in future for other polygonal tools if wanted.
The polygon preview now has a translucent fill which makes it easier to
visualise the zone.
This also adds the Close Zone Outline and Delete Last Corner actions as
part of the new event loop.

This uses the two-point geometry manager to split the logic of the ruler
geometry and the preview item display. This allows the ruler to use that
manager's angle snap feature.
The motivation here is to concentrate display options in the GAL display
settings, ready for removal of legacy canvases. Instead of having the
property as a member of the DRAW_FRAME, with the GAL canvas retreiving
it from there, it is now in the GAL_DISPLAY_OPTIONS struct, and both GAL
and legacy get it from there.
The options for setting cursor shape are then moved out of the general
options dialog, and into the GAL display options widget, where they can
be used in all GAL-aware programs.
GAL cursor shape works on GAL, but not legacy, so the option is now
available on OSX (but only affects GAL, and is labelled as such).
This gives a bit more space to the GAL options in the left panel
Also tidy up some code style and unnecessary default arguments in the
GAL display planel widget.
This adds the microwave tools to GAL in Pcbnew as a new tool:
MICROWAVE_TOOL.
Some new preview items are introduced to support this:
* TWO_POINT_GEOM_MANAGER for managing construction of two-point
geometries, such as that used to construct the inductor.
* CENTRELINE_RECT_ITEM a preview item to draw ractangle with a given
aspect ratio along a line (specified using a TWO_POINT_GEOM_MANAGER)
PCB_TOOL gets a generic event loops which should be useful for more
than just microwave tools:
* doInteractiveItemPlacement() - handles event loops that wait for a
click, create an item on click and then allow moving it
around/flipping, etc.
Fixes: lp:1531323

doesn't just return a MODULE*.
Introduces a new directory in pcbnew called 'microwave' to better

This adds a richer overlay to the arc-by-three-points tool in Pcbnew,
including more guide-lines and a live display of radius and angle.
Also included is ability to go back to the previous step (if setting end
angle, you can go back to setting start point, etc) using Backspace, and
Ctrl snaps the start/end angles to 45 degree multiples.
This adds new classes
* MULTISTEP_GEOM_MANAGER: represents a generic "geometry manager" that
builds up some geometrical construction based on a sequence of points.
Used by:
* ARC_GEOM_MANAGER: handles the logical flow of constructing an
arc by centre-point, set radius, set angle. This moves the logic out
of the Pcbnew DRAWING_TOOL event loop in drawArc().
* ARC_ASSISTANT: graphical overlay to communicate current arc shape to
the user during the drawing process

The attached patch fixes a bug where triggering InlineDrag while routing

performRouting will then return and it will crash as soon as it tries
to access the m_placer.
- The tools can now specify if the items in the selection must be editable/

BOARD::GetBoundingBox() now directly calls BOARD::ComputeBoundingBox()
and there is a new method BOARD::GetBoardEdgesBoundingBox() used for
call sites that needed to use ComputeBoundingBox( true ) in the past.
This allows COMMON_TOOLS to implement ZoomFitScreen without knowledge

Adds a similar crossprobe as modules has in pcbnew. When clicking a

The introduces INDICATOR_ICON, which is a very simple class holding a
bitmap that can toggle on or off.
The ICON_PROVIDER class then provides icons to INDICATOR_ICONS, which
means the class can be used for more than just row indicators.
A default row icon provider is also provided for use in the standard row
selector.
This introduces COLOR_SWATCH, which is a reusable
widget that shows a color swatch and can invoke the colour picker
when duble/middle clicked.
It uses it's own wxCommandEvent to signal the change.
This makes the layer widget simpler internally, and also allows other
code to show identical swatches if needed.
On Linux with recent GTK+ toolkits, these swatches had very wide
borders, resulting in colour swatches of only a few pixels. On OSX, all
borders were disabled, leaving only the swatch.
This commit changes the wxBitmapButton to wxStaticBitmap, which fixes
the issue on Linux GTK+ and also removes the platform-specific element,
as it will now be the same on all systems.
These widgets aren't used as buttons anyway, a single click is handled
across the whole row, not just the swatch. So using a button was not the
most intuitive affordance.

This is used to provide menu entries that allows cancellation of
interactive drawing and routing tools without needing the keyboard.
It is provided in the drawing tools and the router tool.
The cancel event doesn't have any new functionality (e.g. track rip-up
for the PNS router - lp:1448460), this just adds it to the menu, where
it behaves the same as an Escape keypress.
The message of a changed footprint during netlist-import in pcbnew was declared
as RPT_UNDFINED and therefor the filter didn't work correctly ('Warning' was
in the message-string).
This makes the message a proper warning and enables filtering as expected.
This means the dialog can be accessed from both GAL and legacy modes.
This also removes the use of static bools for passing the selection
states and instead used a struct of values passed in by the calling
code.
eeschema now supports arbitrary colors for all object types, and
pcbnew does in GAL canvas. When switching from GAL to legacy canvas,
pcbnew will convert colors to the nearest legacy color.
Some grid/zoom tools are left in PCBNEW_CONTROL because they currently
depend on Pcbnew-specific class members. Once refactoring is done to
make it possible to use all zoom and grid controls outside of pcbnew,
these last tools can be moved to common to match their ACTIONs.
New virtual class ACTIONS is added as a member to EDA_DRAW_FRAME so

bitmaps.h was included in nearly every file in the project due to it
being included by base_struct.h
Only about 130 files actually use the XPM definitions defined there, and
many of those already included bitmaps.h themselves, or via
menu_helpers.h. However, touching bitmaps.h would result in over 400
rebuilt files for pcbnew alone.
This commit moves the bitmap-related types like BITMAT_DEF out to a new
header, which is still included by base_struct.h, which is less
avoidable for now, it's it's used in the interface.
The icon list is still in bitmaps.h. This has the side effect that's
it's now easier to automatically generate this file.
Many classes in pcbnew and eeschema needed some functions moved
to the implementaitons from the headers too.
The apply settings and push settings options now take account of the
validity of the global pad settings when deciding whether to show or

Also provided is a wxWidgets implementation with spin buttons for
control, as well as mousewheel support.
The mappings from enums to control settings can be done in static
functions, which makes the set/retreive functions more concise, and also
puts the mapping functions in a clearly delineated place.
This puts the graphical/display options with the other similar options
in that dialog, rather than with the dimension options found in the Set
Grid dialog, which is in the Dimensions menu.
Also place the option itself in the GAL Display Options structure, so it
can be updated using the observer mechanism there.
The setter for the style in the GAL interface is removed, as the public
interface for setting this option is now to modify the
GAL_DISPLAY_OPTIONS structure and notify the GAL when done.
The GAL_DISPLAY_OPTIONS member of EDA_DRAW_FRAME is a private member and
is used in only a couple of places in the class. The real use of this
member is by a by-ref interface, GetGalDisplayOptions.
Because te GAL options are used by a very select few users of
EDA_DRAW_FRAME, it makes little sense to force all the (many) files
including draw_frame.h to also include gal_display_options.h, when the
vast majority have no need for it.
This massively speeds up compilation of the project when
gal_display_options.h is changed.
More isolation could be acheived by separating the GAL config types (eg
OpenGL antialias modes and grid style) from the options header, as,
although the GAL class uses them, not many includers of the GAL header
need the options struct as well.

This patch fixes a problem with GAL where zones are ignored in ratsnest
calculation.
The problem is that calling RN_DATA::Update on a zone with no polygons
(an unfilled zone) will remove the zone successfully, but then
RN_DATA::Add is a no-op.
From this point on, because ::Update refuses to work on items that have
not been ::Add'ed, the zone is removed entirely from ratsnest
calculation and will only be reconsidered once it is explicitly ::Add'ed
again.
The fix is to explicitly create an empty RN_ZONE_DATA object for every
zone that is ::Add'ed.
A second problem is that the point editor forgot to call
RN_DATA::Recalculate after calling Fill_Zone.

Modifies the selection menu to be adaptive and disable selection options

Adds a new selection option that is only available when selecting
modules, this tool will select all footprints on the same sheet level or
belonging to subsheets. It will also search for nets that are only
connecting between modules on the same sheet or lower and select every

This action launches the normal interactive zone tool, but re-uses the
settings from an existing zone, based on a flag passed to the main zone
function.
Break a chunk of the new zone tool out into a separate function to keep
the code clear. When zone cutouts and similar zone tools are added,
they'll get the settings from existing zones.
This commit now used std::unique_ptr for the temporary zone item, which
simplifies handling of the ownership of that item.
This commit wires up the as-yet-unused "remove alternate" tool action
and uses it to select copper connections (normally 'U') before deleting
segments.
THis also reverses the sense of Delete and Backspace (Delete used to be
'remove' and Backpace was 'remove alt', now it is reversed). This means
that backspace is the key that removes a segment and Delete removes the
track. This is the same as legacy behaviour. Other delete actions are,
for now, the same between Delete and Backspace.
