Dotted, dashed and dash-dot lines are provided in
HPGL, PDF, PS and SVG plot outputs along with line
width and color formatting.
DXF format does not currently provide any dashed
line functionality
A bug in HPGL plotted is corrected. Previous HPGL
dashed line commands were incorrect, plotting all
lines as solid.
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.
This option is not yet activated because the net attributes are not yet fully fixed by Ucamco, in Gerber file format specifications.
(To activate it, see dialog_plot.cpp, line 43)
In polygon calculations (combining polygons, fracture) the mode of calculation (fast or strictly simple polygon option) as no more a default value, because choosing the best mode is better to optimize the calculation time.
Fix ( workaround only) crash (Windows only) when a quasi modal frame (like footprint viewer) was called from a dialog (like the component properties dialog in schematic editor).
Very minor other fixes.
SVG plot, fix a missing reinitialization in plot lines, which could define a filled polyline, instead of a simple polyline
(these fixes solve Bug #1313084 )
Pcbnew:, libedit, Save lib as...: the new .pretty lib format is the default, instead of legacy .mod format. The legacy format is still selectable in the file selection dialog.
The plan goes like this:
- eeschema still uses int in decidegrees
- all the other things internally use double in decidegrees (or radians
in temporaries)
- in pcbnew UI the unit is *still* int in decidegrees
The idea is to have better precision everywhere while keeping the user with int i
angles. Hopefully, if a fractional angle doesn't come in from the outside, everything
should *look* like an integer angle (unless I forgot something and it broke)
When the time comes, simply updating the UI for allowing doubles from the user should
be enough to get arbitrary angles in pcbnew.
In particular the new mechanism for handling extended color palettes is in place,
included renaming the ini keys and saving the color name instead of its index; this means better forward compatibility with palette changes.
Since ini keys are changed, colors will be reset
// This provides better project control over rounding to int from double

Pcbnew: Fixed an issue in GERBER file creation, under Vista and W7 only for non administrator users
Plot files were 0 byte length.
This was due to use of function tmpfile() in a GERBER function to create a temporary file that seems not working using mingw.
Replaced by more usual files functions.
