This can be used for "advanced" options which are for developers
to use for feature-flags and other configuration. Run time config
has some advantages over preprocessor defines:
* Can be changed without recompilation
* Sensitive to XDG_CONFIG_DIR, so flipping configs is easy
* Better compiler coverage (less conditionally compiled code means
less chance to break a different configuration). Also better
analysis coverage.
* Type safe config params
* Centralised documentation: it's in doxygen, in one place
No advanced config should be required by a general users. If a general
user does use one of these configs, it's probably because:
* There is a bug and one of these configs is a workaround
* A config in here is generally useful and should be moved into the
relevant application config and given UI.
For now, the config is read-only, and is read from the
"kicad_advanced" config file in the normal config dir.
The libeval grammar can now be rebuilt with "make libeval_grammar".
This is only possible when lemon is installed.
Also a couple of modifications to the lemon grammar to
account for external changes since the grammer was last generated.
Also move the grammar defines into grammar.h - this is how
Lemon produces them, and by manually copying into the target .cpp,
it make automated regeneration impossible.
This is done to avoid a big chunk of conditionally-compiled code
in the middle of the event function.
Also separates the zoom logic from the WX_VIEW_CONTROLS object
and isolates it in a separate class behind a clearer interface.
Add some simple tests for sane steps on GTK+3-sized scroll
steps.
This avoids having to manually specify include/legacy_gal
in and legacy GAL targets, and harominizes with legacy_wx.
This also means .cpp files in common/legacy_gal do not
need to specify the legacy_gal subdirectory, so they
will continue to work as needed when legacy_wx is removed.
CAIRO_PRINT_CTX provides a Cairo context created from wxPrintDC.
It allows one to prepare printouts using the Cairo library and
let wxWidgets handle the rest.
The connectivity files were unwieldy. This separates them logically
into data, algo and items where the items classes are those that hold,
surprise, surprise, the items, lists and clusters.
Note: it's only the renderer that is changed from wxDC to GAL. Tools stay the same, consider this a temporary hack.
This commit splits the EDA_DRAW_FRAME, EDA_DRAW_PANEL and BLOCK_SELECTOR classes into two variants, each independently compiled into a static library.
- "legacy_wx" for PCBnew/Gerbview - wxDC-based legacy canvas. We have full GAL support there anyway so it makes no sense to introduce GAL rendering API to the legacy tools.
- "legacy_gal" for EEschema and the rest - GAL-based legacy canvas, using legacy tools but with a GAL renderer.
Such split ensures only a small part of the common library and eeschema is affected, without messing around with already GALified tools.
The commit also removes some header dependencies on class_drawpanel.h
There are lot of places where constants are used in the KiCad UI
as "magic numbers". The most common one is "5", used in many
wxFormBuilder and manual UI constructions as the margin.
This commit provides a place for all UI to look up shared
constants and other functions, to help create a consistent UI using
functions that provide meaning and intent to these magic numbers.
This is in preparation for making this widget optionally read-only.
Major changes:
* Construct panel in code, not with wxFormBuilder. This make's it
easier to conditionally construct elements that won't be used
in a read-only mode (e.g. the buttons).
* Use a generic "button row panel" widget for the buttons, as the
sizing and layout logic is reusable in nearly all dialogs, and
it's simplifies layout in the higher-level dialog widget. This
widget is one example of many possible "reuable widgets".
This puts generic logic for KiCad environment vars in
one place.
Also updates the DIALOG_CONFIGURE_PATHS help to document
the new KICAD_USER_TEMPLATE_DIR and KICAD_TEMPLATE_DIR.
This separates the "ground truth" store of hotkeys from what is shown
in the dialog. This will allow us to filter the displayed hotkeys
while keeping the same underlying data structures.
Now, the UI data items interact with an intermediate set of data, which
represents the "original" hotkey data, and the "changed" data. The
ultimate aim here is to allow UI elements to come and go, but the
hotkeys that are "in-edit" are preserved.
This also allows us to abstract some bookkeeping complexity
out of the WIDGET_HOTKEY_LIST class into a separate non-GUI
class.
Also fixes a bug where nets wouldn't get changed because the
pads weren't changed and so the pad nets would propagate and
wipe out the changed nets on the tracks.
Also includes warning dialogs that pad nets will be changed if the
track nets are.

Primary change is to replace most control/window borders with
AUI pane borders. We implement our own AUI border drawing
routine which avoids the ugly one-pixel white frames around
dark canvasses.
Also increases the signal-to-noise ratio of all the pane
creation code in the various frames.
wxWidgets offers two dialog types: wxFileDialog and wxDirDialog, one
to select files, the other to select directories, but neither of them
handles both. DIALOG_FILE_DIR_PICKER fills that gap.
The opencascade patch intrusively checked against libraries but broke
some build scripts. This restores the default cmake OCE behavior that was
changed by 2bab30d9a and makes the OpenCascade search truly secondary.
