Includes improvements to Update PCB from Schematic dialog and
corresponding changes to Symbol Properties, Sheet Properties and
Footprint Properties.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/4012
Replace SEVERITY_ERROR by RPT_SEVERITY_ERROR to avoid collision with a system definition.
Replace other SEVERITY_XXX by RPT_SEVERITY_XX for consistency.
Fix compil warnings and some other compil issues.
This implements all existing symbol library object support and the ability
to save and load symbol library files between file formats for round robin
testing.
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.
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.
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
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
Scope: NETLIST_ITEM, CONNECTION_TYPE, ELECTRICAL_PINTYPE,
NET_CONNECTION, NETLIST_ITEM, GRAPHIC_PINSHAPE
Note, the pin type enum had PT_ added to the front to prevent
shadowing of the INPUT symbol on msys2 (see discussion at
c17c9960d8)
This also removes vector cover types which do nothing except obfuscate
the underlying implementation.
Mainly changes SCH_SHEET_PINS and CONFIG_PARAM_ARRAY (which will soon
be replaced by Jon's new stuff).
This moves EESchema DLIST structures to rtree. These changes are more
fundamental than the pcbnew changes from 9163ac543888c01d11d1877d7c1
and 961b22d60 as eeschema operations were more dependent on passing
drawing list references around with SCH_ITEM* objects.
For legacy reasons, it stored left and right "spin" as flipped integers in the file format.
But the code handled the flip in multiple locations rather than just doing it on file io.
This change unifies the internal code and does the mapping in the file I/O.
* Split up the thirdparty code into the thirdparty folder (#3637)
* Create a new kimath static library containing all the math functions
This is part of cleaning the build system for #1906.
ADD: User can now decide to keep the hierarchy navigator open while working
on a schematic.
This behavior can be configured in eeschema->preferences->eeschema->Editing options.
Change default text size and anchor positions back to mils. Internal
units need to be converted at the source, otherwise the size will get
converted twice in the schematic editor configuration code which will
result in the default text size being off by the conversion factor.
Fixes#3730https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/3730#
Derived symbols were causing the symbol properties grid to assume that
the reference could not be edited because derived symbols inherit the
reference from the parent symbol. The flattened symbols in the schematic
still have the parent set which cause the issue. Clearing the parent of
the flattened symbol resolves the issue.
Fix a minor bug in the symbol information of derived symbols show in the
symbol chooser dialog.
Fixes#3723https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/3723
ADDED: a config option to select (when clicking on a pin) the parent symbol
or only the pin.
Previously, when cliking on a pin, the parent symbol was selected.
Allowing the pin selection is mandatory in cross probing, and to display the pin
characteristics in some cases, for instance if a pin is flagged by the ERC tooL.
There is no need to create a new root symbol and re-parent all derived
symbols when renaming a root symbol. Just rename the buffered root
symbol.
Test for duplicate symbol names when validating the properties dialog
information to prevent broken symbol pointers.
Fix a field drawing bug when editing derived symbols.
Fix bug to insure duplicate symbol names cannot exist in a library.
Fixes kicad/code/kicad#3654
Fixes kicad/code/kicad#3672
The library manager update part function was orphaning the root symbol
of derived symbols when the root symbol was edited. Re-parent the
inherited symbols when updating a root symbol.
Update the mandatory field attributes whenever the parent is set for
derived parts. This will show the fields with the correct attributes
in the symbol editor and viewer.
Using std::unique_ptr to hold the current symbols was deleting the
pointer on symbol selection changes causing the pointer in the library
manager buffer to be stale in some cases. Revert back to using a
simple pointer and manual clean up as required.
Prevent derived symbols from being saved to a different library to
prevent orphaned symbols.
Fixes kicad/code/kicad#3649
ADDED new option to set selection highlight thickness.
Also change selection shadow width constants to
make the selection thickness change less drastically
with the zoom level.
This change completely removes the LIB_ALIAS design pattern an replaces
it by allowing LIB_PART objects to inherit from other LIB_PART objects.
The initial implementation only allows for single inheritance and only
supports the mandatory fields in the derived part because that is all
that the current symbol library file format will support. Once the new
file format is implemented and saving to the old file format is deprecated,
more complex inheritance will be added. The LIB_ALIAS information saved
in the document files was move into the LIB_PART object. This change
impacts virtually every part of the schematic and symbol library editor
code so this commit message is woefully incomplete.
REMOVE: Removed the symbol aliases concept from the schematic and symbol
editors and the symbol viewer.
NEW: Replace the symbol alias concept with simple inheritance that allows
a library symbol to be derived from another library symbol.
It happens when the spice library model shown in dialog is a large file.
Looks like the wxTextCtrl used to displays the library content
creates the crash ( GKT bug?) for large texts.
The fix is to replace this wxTextCtrlt by a wxStyledTextCtrl.
It has advantages (does not crash... and much faster display) and
inconvenients (cannot disable editing).

The sort routine requires the value to be true with a is strictly lower
than b. But just inverting the '<' doesn't yield strictly lower, it
includes '>='. This causes items to jump in the list.
NEW: A text entry allows adding signals by name. This includes vectors
not in the signal list, which is useful for plotting calculated vectors
like `let AB=V(a)*V(b)`. It's also a faster way to add a signal if you
know its name already.

The new connectivity algorithm had a tendency to cleanup
globally, but that could insert undo records from other sheets
into the current screen's undo stack. Needless to say, this
was a recipie for segfaults.

Note that since the markup might exist for other reasons, it has
to be turned on with a preference setting. (It goes through a set
of bitflags so the same architecture can be used for other markup
structures that we might want to support in the future.)
Note also that this is more about engineering nomenclature than
visual formatting. In that respect it's more similar to overbar
than italic or bold.
When placing a new component in the schematic, this allows the user to
iterate through all units in the selected component without re-opening
the choose part dialog. It also allows the optional addition of
multiple copies of the same component to be placed in the schematic.

This makes the pcbnew multiline text editor natively accept tabs in the
same manner as eeschema and extracts key handling routines to the shim
to allow undo/redo.
Also allows Ctrl-Y under Linux in addition to other platforms. While
not as popular as Ctrl-Shift-Z, it is utilized for Redo in some contexts
When editing symbol library reference, this ensures that all units are
modified by the same action and the component is not represented by its
subunits.

(cherry picked from commit 80e0d848f2)
They're now used for bus definition control characters.
Also fixes the sheet pin edit dialog to correctly escape/unescape
netnames.
Fixes: lp:1840834
* https://bugs.launchpad.net/kicad/+bug/1840834
Control ordering is critical to make dialog mnemonics work correct. The
static text with the mnemonic must immediately proceed the control and
no additional controls can be added between static text/control pair.
Fixing this required adding the units static text controls after all of
the mnemonic static text controls and their associated edit controls.
Mnemonics do not work for read only controls so all of the combobox
controls were moved after the text controls.

1) Add highlighting to simProbe and simTune tools.
2) Probe tool should accept wires and pins, not wires and components.
3) Give simulator window a flat look to match rest of Kicad.
4) Collapse whitespace out of simulator window.
5) Add some error messages.
6) Add some whitespace to simulation setting dialog.
Also rewrites the PCBNew Find dialog to make use of the above, including:
1) searching in user-defined footprint fields
2) searching in pcb text
3) a history list in the search popup
4) case sensitive searching
5) word sensitive searching
6) the ability to turn wildcard searching on/off
7) better placement of the result when the dialog obscures part of the
window

This changes make_lexer() so that it no longer generates a custom target
but instead attaches the generated files to an existing one (so the first
argument now is the name of an existing library or executable, and it needs
to come after the add_library/add_executable call).
The generated source is no longer listed in the project sources, as it is
added by the function. The files are generated in the build tree rather
than the source tree, and the directory is added to the include path for
the respective project as well as exported to projects linking against it.
Generated files in subdirectories are somewhat supported, but need to be
referenced with the same name as they were generated (i.e. including the
subdirectory name).
