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.
Remove the CACHE_WRAPPER whose sole purpose was to allow the
cache to be stored in the project, and instead just have the cache
inherit the proper class.
This allows a setting where the path is not one of the options. This
permits the user to select once to go to any path option (rather than
off the current and then back to currect) when the filetree doesn't
match the dropdown. This also selects the drop down item if it matches
the tree.
(cherry picked from commit f5284ced54)
The 3D viewer also uses OpenGL, so it also needs to
adjust based on DPI scale factors.
This patch moves the 3D viewer common config code solely
within the 3D viewer, and adds handling of the DPI scale. This
also avoids duplicated logic in PCB_BASE_FRAME::CommonSettingsChanged.
For now, as EDA_3D_VIEWER is not included in the Kiway settings
dispatch, still manually invoke the settings update from
PCB_BASE_FRAME.
The PANEL_3D_PREV gets a similar function to read the config, but
it doesn't have a listener for the update, so it's set just once
at dialog init, just like the existing pan settings.

Currently, the plugindir in the plugin manager is constructed as
{CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/bin/../{CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR}/kicad/..., while
CMakes install uses {CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR}/kicad/...
In case CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR is a relative path "install" prefixes it
with CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX and both paths happen to match, otherwise
the constructed path ends up as e.g. "/usr/bin/../usr/lib/kicad/...".
For these cases where an absolute path is wanted CMake provides the
CMAKE_INSTALL_FULL_<dir> variants which works the same as
CMAKE_INSTALL_<dir> when used as DIRECTORY for install.
The Boost folks kindly decided to move the sha1.hpp header file location
so check the Boost version to include the proper header path.
Clean up debug trace code.
Drop all uses of wxRAISED_BORDER and wxSUNKEN_BORDER from dialogs and
panels used in main frame windows.
Drop use of wxSP_3DSASH options on all wxSplitterWindow definitions.
Minor dialog alignment and spacing fixes.
The 3D viewer panel had a default size that was causing sizing issue
with the footprint properties dialog. Set the default size to -1;-1
and set the proportion setting to 1 when adding the panel to the sizer
which allows the panel to file in the correct size.
Fixed some minor control spacing issues in the footprint properties
dialog properties tab.
Please note that is only a partial fix for this issue. There is still
too much vertical space which is partially due to the use of wxSpinCtrl
instead of wxDoubleSpinCtrl.

Passing an empty path to the 3D model select dialog results in the file
select control displaying the root path which requires the user to drill
down to get to the 3D models. Use the KISYS3DMOD path as the default
and fall back to the project path as required for the initial file
select control path.
Clean up some coding policy violations.

fp viewer uses the default colors, because it has no color setup dialog.
class_colors_design_settings: remove not used members.
Fix issue in modedit: the color config was never read.
Before the change, the plugins had to be installed to one of the default
search paths, but it should not be necessary for developers working on
3D viewer plugins.
This was due to a missing initialization of the dummy board color settings (used to draw the footprint in the 3D view).

bitmaps.h was included in nearly every file in the project due to it
being included by base_struct.h
Only about 130 files actually use the XPM definitions defined there, and
many of those already included bitmaps.h themselves, or via
menu_helpers.h. However, touching bitmaps.h would result in over 400
rebuilt files for pcbnew alone.
This commit moves the bitmap-related types like BITMAT_DEF out to a new
header, which is still included by base_struct.h, which is less
avoidable for now, it's it's used in the interface.
The icon list is still in bitmaps.h. This has the side effect that's
it's now easier to automatically generate this file.
Many classes in pcbnew and eeschema needed some functions moved
to the implementaitons from the headers too.
* Split and rewrite the preview window and canvas.
* Create a new class for handling the board information.
* Adds new render targets: openGL, legacy, and ray tracing.
* Render targets take full advantage of the new 3D plugins system and 3D cache
for a fast 3D model loading.
* Faster board loading.
* New OpenGL render is faster than the old one.
* New ray tracing render target with a post processing shader.
* Use of new 3D plugins (WRL, X3D, STEP and IGES) and 3D model caching.
* Preview of 3D model while browsing the file name.
* 3D preview of the footprint while adding / align 3D shapes.
* Render of 3D models according to attributes: Normal, Normal+Insert, Virtual.
* Pivot rotation centered in one point over the PCB board.
* Shortcuts keys improved for XYZ orientation..
* Animated camera.
* Use platform cache path insted of the KiCad configuration path to write the
3D model cache.
* OSX: ${HOME}/Library/Caches/kicad/3d
* Linux: ${XDG_CACHE_HOME}/kicad/3d or ${HOME}/.cache/kicad/3d
* Windows: AppData\Local\kicad\3d
* Add a Help button and text to the 3D alias configuration dialog
* Display KISYS3DMOD and internally defined KiCad path env vars
* Add a button to bring up the "Configure Paths" (env vars) dialog
* Remove the file name mapping feature from the resolver; this results in
the resolver always using the current definition rather than a possibly
outdated cache value.
* Paths defined via pcbnew->Preferences->Configure Paths are now included in
the 3D file browser's drop-down list except for KICAD_PTEMPLATES, KIGITHUB,
KISYSMOD, any paths resembling a URL, and any non-existent paths. When an
absolute path is shortened using one of these path aliases, let's say
'KISYS3DMOD' then the name appears in the pcb file as "${KISYS3DMOD}/blah.wrl".
If a user defines and actual environment variable with the same name, then
that user defined variable will have precedence over the internally defined
variable.
* Paths relative to the current project directory are no longer represented
as "some/path/to/file.wrl". For compatibility with previous KiCad versions
it shall always be stored as ${KIPRJMOD}/some/path/to/file.wrl.
* Various restrictions on alias path values have been removed since the
imposed restrictions could result in corrupted user data as aliases are
silently dropped.
* Overall the patch should improve back-compatibility by providing a ${ENV_VAR}
mechanism for supporting different model root directories and ensuring that
paths relative to KIPRJMOD are expressed in a way that is compatible with
earlier KiCad versions. This allows users more flexibility and the ability
to work in a way that ensures 3D model files can be correctly resolved in
earlier versions of KiCad. Users who do not care about back-compatibility
may prefer to use the newer alias system.
The attached patch fixes a segfault due to a race condition.
If a user starts eeschema with an empty sheet and clicks
the 'cvpcb' button, memory is corrupted and the program
segfaults. The issue appears to arise from multiple threads
accessing the 3D cache and resolver. This patch makes
relevant code thread-safe by using a wxCriticalSection.
(In this case the schematic frame exists, but some members are not initialized as expected, and a crash happens when calling the schematic editor dtor)
Minor other fix: avoid multiple very similar strings to translate in 3d_filename_resolver.cpp
