Fix also an issue on Windows, when using the footprint viewer or the component viewer in modal mode:
Reason: these frames (when run under the Kicad manager) have the Kicad manager as parent, and were built with wxFRAME_FLOAT_ON_PARENT style.
On windows, when the frame with style wxFRAME_FLOAT_ON_PARENT is displayed its parent frame is brought to the foreground, on the top of the calling frame.
and stays displayed when closing the frame in modal mode.
This issue does not happen on unix so we use now wxSTAY_ON_TOP on Windows, and wxFRAME_FLOAT_ON_PARENT on unix to simulate a dialog called by ShowModal.
This is not perfect, but at least it works.
* auto-save was broken for all sub sheets with are in a sub-directory of the project directory. (reason wxFileName::Normalize(), used to create the absolute path has issues with filenames starting by '$', perhaps due to env var which also start by $). the auto-save prefix is modified ( now AUTOSAVE_PREFIX_FILENAME which defines "_save_" ) and defined only once.
* auto-save files from sub-sheets were not found due to the fact the path was not set (fixed by Blair Bonnet's patch)
* Use only double to store zoom levels in class BASE_SCREEN (int type is not working for eeschema or page layout editor) (this fix Bug #1450551, Assertion failed on wxRound() when zooming)
* Fix crash in all apps but Pcbnew when a grid or a zoom was selected from the popup menu.
* Modify default hotkeys for Next Grid and Previous Grid: the initial key was a dead key, not suitable as hotkey. the 'N' and Shift N keys are used instead (with a change for unfill zone hotkey)
* Modify code in EDA_DRAW_FRAME::SetNextGrid() and EDA_DRAW_FRAME::SetPreviousGrid() to make them compatible with other editors than the board editor.
* Add code to test if any of the components in the schematic cache have been changed
in the component libraries.
* Prompt user to accept or reject components when changes are found.
* If the user chooses to use the components in the cache, create a new library with the old
components and add it to the beginning of the component library list so the schematic will
not be changed.
* Create dialogs to handle user feedback and status.
Previously, only the lib named "power" was used (and therefore power parts defined in other libs not shown).
Now, all power parts can be loaded from any library.
Also, when loading power parts from the chose component dialog or the lib viewer, libs and parts are filtered: only power parts and libs containing power parts are listed.
Hotkeys: move a few global strings in the files where ther are actually used (and make them local.) and code cleaning.
Fix a few other minor issues.
* Remove redundant definition of KICAD_DATA_PATH since DEFAULT_INSTALL_PATH
was already defined.
* Use DEFAULT_INSTALL_PATH as the substitution for the default environment
variable paths.
* Add option to define DEFAULT_INSTALL_PATH during CMake configuration with
fall back to CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX if not not defined.
* Developer note: this change is primarily for package builders where
CMAKE_INSTALL_PATH is the path where the package builder temporarily
installs the build output before creating the package. When building
packages, DEFAULT_INSTALL_PATH should be set to the path where the
package will be installed by default.
Fix minor 3D viewer issues (includling change number of segments and its optimization to draw pad holes.)
Fix Bug #1439132 (track and via list on toolbar not always refresh after loading a board).
Remove useless tool in Modedit.
* Create new dialog to edit environment variables.
* Add helper class ENV_VAR_ITEM to manage environment variable values and
if they were defined externally.
* A path configuration dialog access to KiCad, CvPcb, Pcbnew, and Footprint Editor
window menus.
* Add validator for environment variables.
these options are used in GAL mode, but the usercannot control this visibility. So if the board file does not have these visibility flags set, the GAL never show them.
Fix also a compil warning.
legacy plugin: better compatibility with old brd files (current track width and current vias size, stored in SETUP section, were not read from file and incorrectly set)
Eeschema now uses dashed lines for graphic lines (to be consistent with plot functions and toolbal icon).
Fix an old bug in some envionments which warp the mouse on a bad monitor when opening eeschema, pcbnew and some other windows, only noticeable guys who are lucky enough to have more than one monitor.
- CACHED_CONTAINER::GetVertices: removed useless and unused function
which does nothing but tainted the API
- SHAPE_LINE_CHAIN::Collide( const BOX2I& aBox, int aClearance ):
removed an outdated function with assert(false)
- SHAPE::BBox(): fix a small typo in the doc string
* Fix default KISYSMOD/KISYS3DMOD (#ifdef typo) for OSX builds.
* Remove setting KIGITHUB from kicad/pcbnew Info.plist in favor of hardcoded default
setting for OSX builds.
* Remove now unneeded Set3DShapesDefaultPath() and other small things.
* move not shared files (sch_item_struct.*, sch_base_frame.h) to eeschema;
* move wxEeschemaStruct.h to eeschema and rename it schframe.h to be consistent with the other corresponding file name schframe.cpp;
* remove few not needed #include
* Check to see if image handler is already initialized to prevent warning
on debug builds.
* Change LIB_PART destructor message output to use wxLogDebug for debugging
on windows builds.
* Minor code cleaning and coding policy fixes.
* if the current select plugin is the github plugin, one can select some of these libraries and add them to the table
* if the current select plugin is the kicad plugin, one can select some of these libraries and download them to make alocal copy.
They can added to the table after they are downloaded.
this option was possible only by modifying the way display options are managed.
before these changes, display options were a global DISPLAY_OPTIONS class instance.
Now each EDA_DRAW_FRAME(and derivated classes) includes its own DISPLAY_OPTIONS class instance.
As a consequence, some duplicate display option variables in these classes have been removed, because there were just duplicate variables of the DISPLAY_OPTIONS class instance.
When the filename is not absolute, the page layout file is now searched first in project folder, and then in kicad template folder, if not found in project.
Fix issue when using a page layout file in project folder: eeschema and Pcbnew did not use it, unless using an absolute path.
Now, if the file path is nor absolute, it is seen as relative to the project (which is the expected behavior)
fp lib wizard: when pcbnew id compiled with USE_GITHUB_PLUGIN=OFF, the github plugin option is no more accessible (and the web viewer no more used).
Looked like a minor issue, but was due to a more serious bug, when using 2 different DSN_LEXERS which were not synchronized.
The fix is not perfect, but unfortunately, the parser used to read the PCB_PLOT_PARAMS in .kicad_pcb files is also used in legacy board file reader.
Therefore it is better than write 2 parser functions, one for legacy files, the other for the .kicad_pcb files, which make the same thing.
- fixed walkaround bug causing unwanted overlap/clearance violation when the first segment of trace being laid intersects the obstacle's hull at the same point twice (ie. goes in, turns around and goes out).
- fixed placer bug not splitting the start segment after toggling via placement or changing trace width
* Make all files generated by make_lexer() dependencies of thier respective build targets.
* Make building Boost a dependency for all libraries.
* Remove duplicate make_lexer() call for Specctra lexer files.
* Change hot key editing contol from wxGridTableBase to wxListCtrl.
* Separate hot key lists into separate tabs rather than one large list.
* Coding policy fixes.
* Many path related fixes.
* Fix execution of external applications.
* Update mac-osx.txt.
* Add top-level links for standalone applications inside OSX bundle.
* Fix document icons for Eeschema and pl_editor.
* Create individual bundles for standalone applications inside the main application bundle.
* Add usual 'site-packages' to python path in OSX bundle.
* Fix name of OSX bundle plugin folder.
Rename "Switch highcontrast" to "Toggle High Contrast".
Eliminate most of the abbreviated hotkey titles.
Doxygenize dialog_hotkeys_editor.h and add missing license block.
Display <unassigned> if key code is 0 (NULL).
Refactor hotkey editor to use tab control instead of one giant list.
Each tab is a separate hotkey section.
Modify EDA_HOTKEY_CONFIG to change the m_Comment member to m_Title for a new purpose.
We want a pretty title in the hotkey editor. We use m_Title for the key export comment which
still conveys the purpose just as easily.
Refactored usage of wxGrid into wxListCtrl which allows capturing navigation characters
and also works better (single selection is built in).
Add hotkey overwrite prompts that are paired with "Common" section. It will check if a hotkey
overlaps with the proper sections. i.e. Common with the all other sections; or Section 1 with just Common.
Right-click menu removed due to wxListCtrl being able to catch the special keys properly.
* Fix creation of single app bundle with respect to scripting support.
* Cleanup scripting search paths for OSX.
* Fix some small CMake bugs from previous OSX build change.
* Optimize bundle file structure to be consistent with Apple specs.
* Add helper script for compiling wxWidgets and wxPython
* Update OSX build instructions.
* Compile all binaries into a single application bundle.
* Use CMake BundleUtilities to make application bundle relocatable.
* Restructure build output to directly create an image file.
* Fix default search paths.
* Set KIGITHUB environment variable.
* Added patch to fix wxWidgets so names for OSX.
* Create GetNewConfig() and GetKicadConfigPath() to unify configuration file
creation and location.
* Move Windows configuration out of the registry into configuration files.
* Move Linux configuration files from $HOME to $HOME/.config/kicad to eliminate
configuration file pollution in the users $HOME folder.
* Fix a bug in the configuration file where the Eeschema hot keys are saved.
* Add hot key handled return indicator to DRAW_FRAME::GeneralControl() and
DRAW_FRAME::OnHotKey() and all classed derived from DRAW_FRAME.
* Add code to all GeneralControl() and OnHotKey() functions to return true if
hot key was handled.
* Call event skip in DRAW_PANEL::OnKeyEvent() when key event is not handled to
allow default menu event handler to function properly.
* Refresh canvas when user cancels edits so that the discarded sheet is
cleared from the schematic.
* Add file name validation to the sheet properties dialog to prevent
illegal file name characters from being entered into the text control.
* Rename FOOTPRINT_NAME_VALIDATOR to FILE_NAME_CHAR_VALIDATOR for clarity.
*) When kicad.exe closes a project, close any open KIFACEs so that they cannot
get disassociated from their true PROJECT.
*) Allow loading eeschema library editor from kicad.exe
*) Allow loading pcbnew library editor from kicad.exe
*) Rename LIB_COMPONENT to LIB_PART.
*) Add class PART_LIBS, and PART_LIB.
*) Make PART_LIBS non-global, i.e. PROJECT specific.
*) Implement "data on demand" for PART_LIBS
*) Implement "data on demand" for schematic SEARCH_STACK.
*) Use RSTRINGs to retain eeschema editor's notion of last library and part being edited.
*) Get rid of library search on every SCH_COMPONENT::Draw() call, instead use
a weak pointer.
*) Remove all chdir() calls so projects don't need to be CWD.
*) Romove APPEND support from OpenProjectFiles().
*) Make OpenProjectFiles() robust, even for creating new projects.
*) Load EESCHEMA colors in the KIWAY::OnKiwayStart() rather in window open,
and save them in the .eeschema config file, not in the project file.
*) Fix bug with wxDir() while accessing protected dirs in kicad.exe
*) Consolidate template copying into PROJECT class, not in kicad.exe source.
*) Generally untangle eeschema, making its libraries not global but rather
held in the PROJECT.
2) LIB_RECTANGLE and related classes sscanf data read from a file using "%s"
without field limits, which can cause problems with malformed/really long
inputs.
3) If some of the optional fields in a lib line are missing, "tmp" can remain
uninitialized.
common.cpp: remove useless warning on wxWidgets < 3.0 about --with-gtkprint build option: on wxWidgets < 3.0 on Linux the print function does not work even with this build option.
Remove a minor warning message in Debug mode for 2 dialogs.
Pcbnew: update Gerber X2 file format (File Attribute) to very last X2 specification
Eeschema: Fix a minor bug in block selection (sometimes the last selected component was select instead of items in selected area)
and better drag behavior when draging an item by the drag hotkey.
