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.
When searching for fields, the code was sometimes comparing translated and not translated names.
This is an issue for mandatory fields, in non English languages.
Translated field names should be used only in messages.
Using a UTF8 char inside a C string can work on unix, but not on Windows.
It must be explicitly converted in a unicode value inside a wide string
(like a wxString)
When adding a .pretty library, if the actual .pretty folder were
selected then no folder would be added to the list of libraries.
This led to an assert when normalizing paths, and the library
not being added.
Add also a comment in common.cpp about using wxLocale instead of setlocale.
DIALOG_UPDATE_FIELDS has issues in non English languages, due to its design.
The fix for mandatory fields is only a partial fix that avoid major issues.
The immediate action option clears (or not) the position of the events.
We use this to determine if the command should start at the given
position or merely activate the tool. This was being checked in the
menu options, which only activated for tool commands in the context
menu. Moving to the process event, we catch hotkeys as well.
This also restores the previous logic in eeschema that used a static
variable for storing wires rather than the private class variable.
Starting the draw event now picks up from the existing wires when
activated in immediate mode.
Fixes#3891 | https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/3891
If the point editor is active and a change is made, the tool was shut down after
deleting the board data, in the frame Dtor.
Therefore a crash happened because a call to GetScreen()->SetModify(); using a null pointer,
and after the test for modifications was done.
Now tools are stopped when closing the window, before any test for modifications.
The parents are the only items that live in the RTree, so the rebuild
check needs to recurse into the sub structure to check for selection
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/3858
Previously, OnModify() was called for a lot of items, even when not modified.
For large schematics, the calculation time was unreasonable ( several minutes)
It is now called only a few times.
Shared sheets can create issues in a complex hierarchy.
This is not related to sharing sheets between projects.
(Sharing sheets between projects is not supported by Kicad)
These help files are created from the .md source files and contain I18n strings,
but do not exist if kicad is not built from sources.
However they are needed by translators.
ADDED: Back annotation algorithm,
eeschema back annotation dialog
CHANGED: added some minor helper methods to SCH_REFERENCE_LIST and SCH_REFERENCE,
split SCH_REFERENCE_LIST::CheckAnnotation on 2 parts to reuse code
The RTree does not have a deterministic iterator, so extracting items
may be in arbitrary order, causing issues as the schematic appears to
change when comparing to previous revisions.
This uses the SCH_ITEM comparison operator to for ordering by type, then
by custom sorting within type.
For the netlist, we choose the first available unit in the sheet for
each component.
Fixes#3811 | https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/3811
We need to ensure that the appended sheet does not already exist in the
parent hierarchy. We do this for new sheets but need to check for
existing ones as well.
Fixes#3806 | https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/3806
When opening the symbol editor without loading the schematic editor the
default text size setting is not loaded and was defaulting to the old mils
setting. Convert the default text size to internal units in case the
symbol editor is launched first.
Set default line, bus, and selection highlight width to internal units.
Change new symbol dialog pin position offset control from a spin control
to a text control so the unit binder object can handle converting to and
from internal units.
Fixes#3802https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/3802
The components are reloaded when libraries change and when loading a
schematic. The initial load does not contain pins and so bbox hits may
miss elements.
