They don't define a KiCad string class, so the header file name was
somewhat misleading. But the fact that they didn't match definitely
made coding more difficult.
Found via `codespell -q 3 -S *.po,./thirdparty -L aactual,acount,aline,alocation,alog,anormal,anumber,aother,apoints,aparent,aray,dout,einstance,modul,ot,overide,serie,te,,tesselate,tesselator,tht`
wx/wx.h includes all wxWidgets .h files, and sometimes creates collision
names in #define between kicad and windows headers
Moreover, blindly including a lot of useless files is compil time consuming
After commit 9535153f9e there were no more IDs inside the legacy ID
system. Therefore the entire system for dispatching and looking up
the legacy ideas and handling those events can now be removed and
the tool dispatcher simplified (it no longer needs to know about
the ACTIONS class).
The ACTION_MENU constructor now takes the tool as an argument,
so the call to SetTool() immediately following it can be removed
and the tool just passed into the constructor.
Bitmaps are now identified by an enum class instead of by pointers.
Bitmap loading and caching is now handled by a class in common, and
we no longer compile most bitmaps into the binary, so there is no
longer a bitmaps static library.
Instead, bitmaps are archived to a .tar.gz file which is installed
in ${KICAD_DATA}/resources/images.tar.gz
The source PNGs are checked in to Git as the original CPP files were,
so that people can build without the required dependencies to convert
SVGs to PNGs.
Initial support is also added for dark theme icons, although this
is not yet exposed in the GUI.
Stubs are present for multi-resolution image resources, but this is
not fully-baked yet and could use some refinement.
Between the time the user loads the footprint preview in cvpcb or Add
Footprint in pcbnew, we don't need to verify cache integrity to display
the footprint. We use the cache copy when displaying until we close the
selection window and re-open. This limits our need to iterate over the
full directory on every footprint display.
Alternate solutions for v7 should include looking into libfswatch for
change detection
GetPath() returns the sheetpath for each component. The component KIIDs
for all units are stored in m_kiids, reachable by GetKIIDs(). We no
longer assume a single unit for the component but store all units in the
single COMPONENT for matching reference

Versions specific variables that may point to objects that change
through versions, allowing multiple KiCad versions to operate correctly
(even on MSW) on the same machine.
The accelerator strings really shouldn't be part of the translation,
and some translations have cause the accelerator keys to be incorrectly
handled. It is simpler to make it separate and just join them to the
translated string.
Make all accelerator modifiers use lowercased Ctrl instead of CTRL
to be the same as the other modifiers.

This will always show 1 unit from each system, with the primary unit
being the current frame unit and the secondary unit being the
most recent unit used from the other system. These are saved in
the settings, so they are saved between runs.
1) use SCH_COMPONENT::GetRef(), GetValue() and GetFootprint() when
instance-specific info is needed
2) update UpdateAllScreenReferences() to handle value and footprint.
3) BACKANNO is CvPcb's handler, not back annotation's handler. Which
means it needs GUI behaviour, not back annotation behaviour.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/5520
There was a regression in v6 where the zoom to selection toolbar
item wasn't canceling the tool when pressed and the tool was active
(it was in v5). This implements a more generic framework for canceling
tools on button presses.

The use of printf, wxLogDebug, and std::err/std::out causes excessive
debugging output which makes finding specific debugging messages more
difficult than it needs to be.
There is still some debugging output in test code that really needs to
be moved into a unit test.
Add debugging output section to the coding policy regarding debugging
output.
* Frames moved: cvpcb, cvpcb footprints frame, gerbview, pagelayout editor
This also introduces new EDITOR_CONDITIONS that are used to set the
conditions of very common editor settings.
Also, some IDs were converted to tools in the pagelayout editor.
Various architecture upgrades to support this.
Creating a BOARD now requires a valid PROJECT, which caused
some (mostly transparent) changes to the Python API internals.
ADDED: Project local settings file
CHANGED: Board design settings are no longer stored in PCB file
CHANGED: Net classes are no longer stored in PCB file
CHANGED: Importing board settings now reads boards, not just projects

You can now choose the behavior of dragging with the
middle and right mouse buttons.
You can also choose which modifier keys to use for
panning and zooming with the scroll wheel or trackpad.
You can also customize the zoom speed, which makes
it possible to have a good zoom experience on a wider
range of input devices.
You can also now zoom by dragging with the right or
middle button if desired.

Using the infobar for errors doesn't steal focus from the cpvcb
main window when they are displayed like a dialog does, so it
allows for them to be visible without interrupting navigation
in the listboxes.
CHANGED: Cvpcb fpviewer and the pcbnew fpviewer no longer have an options dialog
ADDED: Add a side toolbar to the pcbnew footprint viewer (and the measure tool)
This also cleans up some of the settings structs in the viewers, since
it was somewhat confusing before.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/2205
* Consolidate the measure tool into one tool (this gives cvpcb
unit changing and snapping capabilities in its measure tool)
* Transition cvpcb to use actions for the sketch modes
* Replumb how magnetic items settings are stored and used
* Push all sizing operations into EDA_BASE_FRAME
* Save the unmaximized window size when maximizing
so that we can then save it in the config if the
window is maximized. Otherwise the config ends up
with the maximized size saved, and weird behavior
occurs when unmaximizing on the next opening.
When pressing "Cancel" in Cvpcb's Footprint Assignment window, Cvpcb
discards changes without prompting the user. The comment suggests that
this behavior is intentional.
I have personally lost work due to this behavior when I tried to click
"Ok" and missed. Discarding changes without a prompt seems like a bad
idea anyway, so this stop doing that.
The only disadvantage is that it is now harder to open and close the
Footprint Assignment window without saving changes.
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.
