SVG export does not use no more wxWidgets wxDC.
In pcbnew SVG files can be created by plot menu (in B&W) or export SVG menu (B&W or Color).
Export SVG menu is more suitable to create a view of a board, and plot menu is better to create a B&W document of silkscreen layers.
(In the future, the 2 menus could be merged, because they are not very different).
Note: pcbnew plot code is cleaned, mainly in dialog files, but still needs more cleanup.
Kicad manager: shows now svg files in tree files.
Pcbnew: fix incorrect printing (board out of page) when creating drill map in postscript format ( noticeable mainly for small boards)
All: press ctrl+shift key when moving the mouse allows the graphic cursor to be moved outside the grid.
(useful to place graphic objects, texts in any position, regardless the current grid)
This is *a work in progress*, so some features are missing, and/or could be modified.
Mainly keepout zones are not yet exported to autorouters, and pads are not taken in account.
Some code cleanup in polygon.*
* Added a dialog to select options: one or 2 files, units (mm or inch), and force INSERT option.
* code cleaning
* Modify corresponding icon in menu to show a footprint, not a schematic component.
More about code refactoring in connect.cpp: RecalculateAllTracksNetcode() is 50 times faster with a board using 27000 tracks
Use right icon in pcbnew for load board and new board.
* Fixed bug on Windows that prevented the menu short cuts from working
properly.
* Fix duplicate menu short cut keys in KiCad, Pcbnew, and Eeschema.
* Add menu short cuts for all possible menu entries.
* Correct all user strings and comments for the correct capitalization of
application names according to JP. They are KiCad, Pcbnew, CvPcb,
Eeschema, and GerbView.
* Add a note the the user interface policy about the correct capitalization.
* Add hotkey "P" - place item
* Add record and play macros for sequence hotkey.
Macros set to numeric key 0..9.
<Ctrl>+<numkey> - start record macros
<hotkey> <mouse move> ... <hotkey>|<mouse place>
<Ctrl>+<numkey> - end record macros
<numkey> - play macros
* Add menu save/read macros to/from xml-file
* Add configure rotate angle for rotate module: 45 or 90 deg.
* fix segfault when move/drag segment if disconnected to pad
* Rename all ADD_MENUITEM_* functions to AddMenuItem and move them to
wxstruct.h since they are used by the Kicad main frame classes.
* Move SET_BITMAP and SETBITMAPS definitions to wxstruct.h.
* Fix a bug in SET_BITMAPS that prevented enabling menu item images on
OSX.
* Rename MsgItem to EDA_MSG_ITEM.
* Remove redundant includes from modified files.
* Doxygen and coding style policy fixes.
* Add in help menu a direct link to the new doc Getting_Started_in_KiCad.pdf, written by contributors (useful for beginners)
* Fix other very minor issues in CvPcb.
* Update howto doc about translation
* Fix grid select box update bug on context menu.
* Fix via size and track width select box update bugs.
* Fix layer pair indicator button update bug.
* Fix auto track width tool bar control enable bug.
* Fix via size and track width select status bug in context menu.
* Fix layer select box and layer control widget select bug when current
layer is removed.
* Add virtual function to notify objects derived from EDA_DRAW_FRAME that
the units setting has changed.
* Coding policy class naming fixes.
* Old control state handling code completely removed in all applications.
* Factor common control state handlers into EDA_DRAW_FRAME.
* Replaced EDA_ITEM test for newness with IsNew() method.
* Factor vertical right toolbar command handlers out of giant edit command
switch statement in EESchema and PCBNew.
* Remove redundant background redrawing RedrawActiveWindow.
* Remove redundant managed cursor callback in RedrawActiveWindow.
* Use refresh to redraw instead of directly calling RedrawActiveWindow.
* Remove unused SetDrawBgColor for drawframe.cpp.
* Fix compiler warning in cvpcb/cvframe.cpp.
* Fix menu spelling and syntax errors in pcbnew.
* Rename Trace_Curseur to DrawCursor in common/drawpanel.cpp.
