(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
The attached patch ensures the S3D_MASTER class does not cause
a segfault in pcbnew when used from Python scripting.
The issue is due to an "extern KIWAY* TheKiway" which was exposed
to allow S3D_MASTER to use the new resolver to handle 3D filenames.
Unfortunately TheKiway cannot be assigned a value until a window is
created which implements Kiway. The change introduced by this
patch should not alter the behavior of S3D_MASTER compared to
the behavior before the 3D merge.
The extern variable is only there to support S3D_MASTER which in
turn is there to support the current 3DViewer. In the planned software
structure the rather complex S3D_MASTER class is replaced with
a simple struct which only holds the model name and position/
orientation/scale data as stored in the PCB file; since the replacement
does not perform filename resolution there is no need to expose the
Kiway. For example in Mario's branch we removed the extern and
S3D_MASTER class many months ago.
* Prevent power component warning from being shown when edit normal component
fields.
* Make text edit dialog size itself instead of using a fixed size.
* Improve the alignment and spacing in the text edit dialog.
* Refactor edit one field dialogs to use validators and transfer data to and
from window functions.
* Add code to DIALOG_SHIM to handle validation and transfer functions since
the base dialog class code is not called by EndQuasiModal().
* Add custom validator class for filtering field text control characters.
* Add new field validator to edit schematic component dialog field text
control.
* Add new field validator to edit fields in library editor dialog field
text control.
* Make a few LIB_PART member functions const.
The new (eeschema, so far) hotkeys editor uses the right-click menu for the
reset command, so the reset-to-default function that was added in 6652
(git:0cd7476) was not accessible from eeschema.
Still isn't perfect, but removes an actual bug. It's still possible to get
weird things if you try hard, but they're not corrupt and don't trip
assertions. Consider a temporary fix.
* remove duplicate code between draw functions and STROKE_FONT used in GAL. Use only STROKE_FONT methods in draw, plot and test DRC function for texts. It remove slightly different shapes between GAL and other calculations.
* fix incorrect bounding box for texts with overbar. Especially noticeable for texts with overbar inside a copper zone in Pcbnew.
* fix a few minor other bugs related to graphic texts.
The attached patch makes the following changes to the IDF
tool 'dxf2idf':
1. DXF units are now correctly scaled to mm
2. Polylines are now supported
3. LWPolylines are now supported
- When the Kicad manager is iconized, all other child frames are iconized (normal wxWidgets behavior)
- For viewer frames in modal mode, there is a more annoying issue: they have the wxFLOAT_ON_PARENT frame style on unix, and wxSTAY_ON_TOP on Windows.
wxFLOAT_ON_PARENT frame style is incorrect (although on most WM it works) because the parent frame (Kicad manager Frame) is not the caller. It is usually a main editor frame.
It does not work on Windows (wx STAY_ON_TOP is used).
* Now each editor frame has a null parent.
Therefore iconizing the Kicad manager frame does not iconize other frames.
* Viewer frames have null parent in normal mode and the caller parent in modal mode (therefore wxFLOAT_ON_PARENT frame style is always and correctly used)
* References to opened/closed main frames are no more managed by the (complicated) kicad code. Instead of, a non critical and more easy to understand code just uses FindWindowByName to know if a main window exists or not.
These changes do not fix all issues about Kicad frames brought to the foreground or the background, but it fixes a few issues, and AFAIK do not add other issues.
