Correcting the error is more trouble than it is worth, and anyway
might not be corrected exactly the same way plotting/filling/DRC
is corrected anyway.
Use a segment count multiple of 2, because we have a control point on the
middle of the arc, and the look is better if it is on a segment junction
because there is no arc to segment approx error
The radius correction does not fix correctly approximation errors,
and creates serious issues for thin arcs:
- control point outside the arc
- HitTest active area outside the arc shown on screen
- Cairo and opengl gives different arc positions.
- the formula used in radius correction is probably incorrect.
The OpenGL missing segments (when small) are due to rounding in larger
coordinates. The GAL shader uses floats to represent int32 values for
position and distance. Thus, at larger coordinates, the smaller integer
values cannot be represented accurately. This tests for the rounding
error and, if it exists, draws a plain circle instead

You can now enable and disable snap to grid when drawing/editing across
all apps. You can also tie snap to grid to the visibility of the grid
to allow rapid enable/disable via grid display.
Cairo Polyline and Polygon draw functions share a common routine. While
Polygons must have 3 points to allow triangulation, a polyline (like our
text) need only have 2
This resolves a crash when passing an empty polygon and alerts debug
users to possible generation cases when bad polygons are created.
Thanks for Frans Zellman
(https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/merge_requests/365) for
identifying the issue.
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.
The base GAL has the linewidth property already, and its
accessor will only return the base version. This was causing
problems with the Cairo printing GAL, since that setter wasn't
using the base class version. Also, this removes the print-specific
setter, since the actual setting of line width shouldn't be done
there and is instead done where the drawing happens.

On platforms with limited framebuffer attachments, like GC7000L
driven by the open source etnaviv driver, we can still use
GPU acceleration by drawing directly to the main buffer.
EDA_DRAW_PANEL_GAL::onPaint checks if an overlay target is
available in the GAL, and if not, redraws the whole view if the
overlay target should be dirty.
Clearing of the overlay target is a no-op if there is no overlay
buffer.

When drawing segments that are smaller than the segment width, OpenGL
did not use realistic values, leading to hidden, small tracks. Instead,
we set the track to only draw a segment when the length is at least 1
radius long (so that we can see the full semi-circle at the track end)

- New public static function OPENGL_GAL::CheckFeatures() gets called in EDA_DRAW_PANEL_GAL::SwitchBackend() before switching to OPENGL_GAL

Swap syncs can limit the redraw rate as the screen waits for previously
issued syncs. Setting this to -1 allows for adaptive swapping
(resorting to unsynced if it falls behind) if it is supported by the
card but will fall back to unsynced (0) if the adaptive is not
supported.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/4226
The scaling factor stored inside the canvas is created by a DPI_SCALING
helper, which will call the platform-specific functions if no user scaling
is specified. This change only affects OSX and Retina displays, so this
now also allows custom scaling to be used on OSX if desired (although it
shouldn't be needed, since wx has detection for it in 3.0.4).

* Split up the thirdparty code into the thirdparty folder (#3637)
* Create a new kimath static library containing all the math functions
This is part of cleaning the build system for #1906.
Ratsnest did not need a reserve and then iterative emplace. Instead, we
use resize(). Stroke font gets private vars initialized and kiway
variables that are only used in debug builds are properly scoped for
releases as well
Calling resize(size()) will only zero out elements that exist above the
vector size(). The memory is not freed in this case. shrink_to_fit()
will accomplish this action (at the discretion of the library)
This update replaces the existing uses of unique pointer creation with
the C++14 std::make_unique call that provides proper memory release in
event of an exception.
Don't accidentally flip the x-axis glyph size when resetting after

Note that since the markup might exist for other reasons, it has
to be turned on with a preference setting. (It goes through a set
of bitflags so the same architecture can be used for other markup
structures that we might want to support in the future.)
Note also that this is more about engineering nomenclature than
visual formatting. In that respect it's more similar to overbar
than italic or bold.
deque structures have higher overhead than vectors. Not usually
problematic, but with hundreds of thousands of characters each with only
a few strokes, the overhead becomes dominant.
Previously, a 600 DPI was used to set device scale (can create minor visible rounding issues).
Using now 4800 DPI to reduce these rounding artifacts.

It was due to a angle normalization between -360 and 360 degrees.
So, in arcs, if the start angle and end angle diff is n*360 deg,
this normalization gives start angle = end angle.
The fix forces end angle = start angle+360deg in this case.

This allows a const BITMAP_BASE to expose const image
data. This is currently done with const_casts, which is
"OK", only as long as the source image is not declared
const, in which case it's undefined behaviour.
Also immediately dereference the pointer to a reference
if it's not checked to make the non-null requirements
explicit at the point of access.
Move repeated GAL config reading routines into GAL_DISPLAY_OPTIONS.
THe app-level config is in here already, do the same for the
common config.
This means that the configs are loaded consistently, which fixes
the symbol-chooser preview window, which previously didn't use the
same config routine as other GAL canvases.
Future work could move these functions to free functions that
act on the public interface of GAL_DISPLAY_OPTIONS to avoid
GAL_DISPLAY_OPTIONS having to know about wxConfig and wxWindow.

Both Cairo and OpenGL had issues (different, though) with circles that are
thicker in line width than they have radius. This corrects the OpenGL
implementation (radius is calculated to the outer edge) as well as Cairo
(line width needs to be clamped to twice the radius)

First, add automatic detection of toolkit DPI scaling options. For now, this
is, in order,
* Check the GDK_SCALE option under GTK+ (users can set this to force the scaling)
* Check the value from WX's GetContentScalingFactor(). This will start to work
correctly from WX 3.1 and GTK+ 3.10.
Then, add a user-settable override in the main prefs panel, next to the icon
scaling. This is independent of the icon scaling options.
DPI handling is performed in a standalone class, so they can be shared between
the prefs UI and the OpenGL backend easily. Also means Cairo could use the same
interface in future.
Also adjust the OpenGL grid drawing code to use the computed scale factor,
which avoids over-thick grids in scaled environments (the user can manually
thicken the grid if wanted).

Arc pixel adjustment needs to be limited to +/-1 pixel. But making this
adjustment to nearby points and then using the projection to correct the
center point accumulates errors that are large for angles near 0 and
near 360. This is a compromise that aligns _most_ arcs and provides
stable generation for all angles.

Cairo supports antialiasing when rendering but can be slow when set to
sub-pixel mode. This bumps the minimum version of Cairo to 1.12
(available in 14.04 LTS as well as mingw) to support three antialias
settings (fast, good, best) that offer speed/appearance tradeoffs.
This can provide a higher-quality eeschema render as it works on a
per-element basis as opposed to the OpenGL per-screen antialias.
If a page layout contains bitmaps and is used in all sheets of a hierarchy, and in the board editor,
the cross-probing from pcbnew to eeschema invalidate textures associated to these shared bitmaps,
when switching active sheets.
Usually a crash happens after switching or when closing editors.
As a workaround, I disabled bitmaps (therefore associated textures) cache.
Not optimal, but at least it avoid crashes.
Due to the implicit floor of the cast from double to unsigned char,
there was a small rounding error in COLOUR4D's WX conversion function.
This fixes the failing tests.
Also make the cast to unsigned char explicit.
Display GALs had an incorrect world unit value set. Now the world unit
value says how many internal units are in an inch, in accord with the comments
in the GAL header. Bitmap drawing code relied on the information about DPI,
so scaling worked differently for display and print GALs.
CAIRO_PRINT_CTX provides a Cairo context created from wxPrintDC.
It allows one to prepare printouts using the Cairo library and
let wxWidgets handle the rest.
Fixes a crash when typing fast in the place footprint filter box.
Also adds a bunch more checking to GAL locking, including making
sure the same person unlocks as locked, and preventing piece-meal
calls (the RAII objects must be used).
It happens when the char is not found in the font used to display netnames/pad names.
When happens, a wxASSERT is raised.
Unfortunately it can crash the application if it is during a paint event or some critical time.
This prevents deadlocks when exceptions are thrown and the context
ends up not getting unlocked.
It also removes an earlier hack to try and minimize this which
didn't work anyway.
