Some more reformatting according to uncrustify results.
2013-10-14 16:13:35 +02:00
Maciej Suminski 3d0753c920 Added get functions for high contrast mode fields. 2013-09-17 11:19:15 +02:00
Maciej Suminski 573f9841df Better way of marking 'brightened' mode for items. 2013-09-16 11:00:59 +02:00
Maciej Suminski 90a3b97c2f Added drawing of worksheet layout. 2013-09-11 14:42:12 +02:00
Maciej Suminski e2f5b2779f Changed lifetime of RENDER_SETTINGS (now they are accessible right after PAINTER object is created). 2013-09-11 12:09:22 +02:00
Maciej Suminski afe2e27b0a Moved GetColor() from PAINTER to RENDER_SETTINGS. Fixed recaching of custom items. 2013-09-11 11:39:46 +02:00
Maciej Suminski c5d3376c26 Changed some 'magic numbers' into constants. Added const modifier in appropriate spots. 2013-09-11 11:34:10 +02:00
Maciej Suminski 402f3c6f2c Added brightened mode for selecting items using disambiguation menu. 2013-08-08 12:30:00 +02:00
Maciej Suminski e050133c07 Simplified color computation. 2013-08-07 09:51:39 +02:00
Maciej Suminski c5ca075e24 Added an interface for highlighting. 2013-07-17 10:21:46 +02:00
Maciej Suminski 7739cfef2f Added support for multiple active layers (colored ones in the high contrast mode).
Added separate layers for pad netnames (now these are divided into multilayer/top/bottom pads).
More appropriate layers are selecting a copper layer in the high contrast mode (now it shows the copper layer itself, vias & multilayer pads and netnames).

Maciej Suminski e262b32198 Introduction of Graphics Abstraction Layer based rendering for pcbnew.
New classes:
    - VIEW - represents view that is seen by user, takes care of layer ordering & visibility and how it is displayed (which location, how much zoomed, etc.)
    - VIEW_ITEM - Base class for every item that can be displayed on VIEW (the biggest change is that now it may be necessary to override ViewBBox & ViewGetLayers method for derived classes).
    - EDA_DRAW_PANEL_GAL - Inherits after EDA_DRAW_PANEL, displays VIEW output, right now it is not editable (in opposite to usual EDA_DRAW_PANEL).
    - GAL/OPENGL_GAL/CAIRO_GAL - Base Graphics Abstraction Layer class + two different flavours (Cairo is not fully supported yet), that offers methods to draw primitives using different libraries.
    - WX_VIEW_CONTROLS - Controller for VIEW, handles user events, allows zooming, panning, etc.
    - PAINTER/PCB_PAINTER - Classes that uses GAL interface to draw items (as you may have already guessed - PCB_PAINTER is a class for drawing PCB specific object, PAINTER is an abstract class). Its methods are invoked by VIEW, when an item has to be drawn. To display a new type of item - you need to implement draw(ITEM_TYPE*) method that draws it using GAL methods.
    - STROKE_FONT - Implements stroke font drawing using GAL methods.
                          
Most important changes to Kicad original code:
    * EDA_ITEM now inherits from VIEW_ITEM, which is a base class for all drawable objects.
    * EDA_DRAW_FRAME contains both usual EDA_DRAW_PANEL and new EDA_DRAW_PANEL_GAL, that can be switched anytime.
    * There are some new layers for displaying multilayer pads, vias & pads holes (these are not shown yet on the right sidebar in pcbnew)
    * Display order of layers is different than in previous versions (if you are curious - you may check m_galLayerOrder@pcbnew/basepcbframe.cpp). Preserving usual order would result in not very natural display, such as showing silkscreen texts on the bottom.
    * Introduced new hotkey (Alt+F12) and new menu option (View->Switch canvas) for switching canvas during runtime.
    * Some of classes (mostly derived from BOARD_ITEM) now includes ViewBBox & ViewGetLayers methods.
    * Removed tools/class_painter.h, as now it is extended and included in source code.
                         
Build changes:
    * GAL-based rendering option is turned on by a new compilation CMake option KICAD_GAL.
    * When compiling with CMake option KICAD_GAL=ON, GLEW and Cairo libraries are required.
    * GAL-related code is compiled into a static library (common/libgal).
    * Build with KICAD_GAL=OFF should not need any new libraries and should come out as a standard version of Kicad
                            
Currently most of items in pcbnew can be displayed using OpenGL (to be done are DIMENSIONS and MARKERS).
