* Only check for search cache update on close dialog event instead of every
update of the find/replace view which caused an infinite loop when replace
all was called.
* Check for dirty search cache for each find/replace event.
* Add code to save and restore last replace index on cache refresh.
* Rename Eda_FileSelector to EDA_FILE_SELECTOR.
* Add optional pointer to wxString to save the most recently used path to EDA_FILE_SELECTOR.
* Rename Eda_DirectorySelector to EDA_PATH_SELECTOR.
* Replace wxGetCwd() with wxStandardPaths::GetDocumentsDir(). This fixes the windows issue
where wxGetCwd() returns the path where the executable files are located.
* Add code to handle most recently used path to EDA_BASE_FRAME.
* Fix string formatting error in kicad/files-io.cpp.
* Remove setting and restoring current working directory when launching GerbView. Setting the CWD
has no effect on the launched executable which starts with it's own CWD.
* Allow project path to be passed to GerbView when launched from KiCad.
* Note: this is a work in progress. Do not expect every path and/or file selection dialog to properly
update the most recently used path. The correct solution to this problem requires a much more
well though out solution which will not happen until after the next stable release.
Fix a very minor issue about accelerator key in help menu: for "Eeschema Manual" of library browser it was "H". It is now "M" like in other help menus.
* Move color conflict checking code into TranferDataFromWindow so that it can be used in both the
OK and Apply button message handlers.
* Change Erc to ERC in text labels.
* Check for color conflicts and give the user the option to dismiss the changes before applying them.
* Add color conflict checking when apply button is pressed.
* Use default dialog size to allow sizers to set the initial size of the dialog.
* Enable CvPcb launching in stand alone mode.
* Enable footprint editor launching in stand alone mode.
* Remove some dead code left over from the change in CvPcb behavior.
* These changes were made for users who prefer to work in a less project-
centric work flow. KiCad should not be in the business of dictating
work flow whenever possible.
* Push center on zoom, use middle mouse button to pan, limit panning, and
pan while moving object settings from schematic editor to symbol library
editor and symbol library viewer child windows.
* Push center on zoom, use middle mouse button to pan, limit panning, and
pan while moving object settings from board editor to footprint library
editor and footprint library viewer child windows.
* Add code to allow each editing window it's own undo/redo count.
* Add code to allow for infinite undo/redo when count is set to 0.
* Add edit control to all editing windows general options dialog for
user configuration of undo/redo count.
* Add code to save and restore undo/redo count for each editing window.
* When multiple pins are in the same position and one is not connected,
show connection indicator correctly.
* LIB_PIN::IsVisible should be a const method so it can be called on
DANGLING_END_ITEM children without having to discard const.
* Test the (!IsVisible() && GetType() == PIN_POWER_IN) condition in a method
LIB_PIN::IsPowerConnection to avoid duplicating that condition if the test
needs to be performed in more than one place. (e.g. dunderheads like myself
might forget about the necessary GetType() == PIN_POWER_IN and just check
visibility.)
* Coding style fix: break a couple lines that were above the 99-column maximum.
* Add and/or improve Doxygen comments on SCH_COMPONENT::IsPinDanglingStateChanged
and SCH_COMPONENT::IsDanglingStateChanged.
- Slightly change the info text in the dialog. Add a definition of exactly what it means to "rescue" a component.
- Reload the project libraries when a project is opened, even if kicad is already running and the same project is open (to be sure the lib cache is up to date).
- Set the Modified flag on cancel, because a change has indeed been made (choosing not to rescue is equivalent to updating the components)
* Components with multiple "converts" were rendered with all of them overlapping instead
of just one.
* Schematics missing a -cache.lib resulted in unnecessary renaming suggestions.
* The dialog title "Conflicts Checking" is inaccurate now (as we're checking for more than
just conflicts) and also somewhat awkward, unidiomatic GUI English; I renamed it to
"Project Rescue Helper".
* Eliminate modal annotation warning dialog when generating a netlist fails
due to components that are not annotated.
* Add warning message to annotate dialog.
Fix also an issue on Windows, when using the footprint viewer or the component viewer in modal mode:
Reason: these frames (when run under the Kicad manager) have the Kicad manager as parent, and were built with wxFRAME_FLOAT_ON_PARENT style.
On windows, when the frame with style wxFRAME_FLOAT_ON_PARENT is displayed its parent frame is brought to the foreground, on the top of the calling frame.
and stays displayed when closing the frame in modal mode.
This issue does not happen on unix so we use now wxSTAY_ON_TOP on Windows, and wxFRAME_FLOAT_ON_PARENT on unix to simulate a dialog called by ShowModal.
This is not perfect, but at least it works.
* Change 'Silent mode' -> 'Always ask for confirmation'. Default on
(Same behavior as before, though arguably, it is very annoying and
should probably be default off)
* 'Automatically close dialog' -> 'Keep this dialog open'. Also changed
the default to _not_ keep the dialog open (what is keeping it open even
useful for ?)
* Change leave sheet hot key from back space to alt + back space. Note: for
some reason ctrl + back space did not work at least on windows.
* Add back space as delete node hot key which is consistent with the delete
track segment hot key in Pcbnew.
Now all are calculated using the top to bottom draw Y axis. This is perhaps not a good idea, but at least it will be easy to change, later.
Code cleaning relative to these bounding boxes.
* If a bus entry is drawn between two WIRES (not a wire and a bus, or two
buses), it looks like it's connecting the wires together, but doesn't
actually represent a connection. Display them as dangling in that case,
to make it clear to the user that a connection has not actually been made.
* Enable and disable save schematic button and menu entry depending on
modification status.
* Add toolbar and menu entries for leaving sheet.
* Enable and disable leave sheet menu entry and toolbar when in root sheet
or descended into the hierarchy.
* Add code to test for sheet path recursion to SCH_SHEET_PATH and SCH_SHEET_LIST.
* Add recursion tests to edit sheet code in Eeschema.
* Add recursion tests to block paste code in Eeschema.
* Remove global s_NetObjectslist.
* Separate out non-owning version of NETLIST_OBJECTS_LIST into NETLIST_OBJECTS.
* Fix double free pertaining to ~NETLIST_READER().
* Remove all file-io from CvPCB.
* Remove exe launcher cvpcb, retain only cvpcb.kiface, since cvpcb.kiface has no file i/o.
* Add void CVPCB_MAINFRAME::KiwayMailIn( KIWAY_EXPRESS& mail ) and teach it to use old
netlist loading code with a STRING_LINE_READER LINE_READER.
* Fix BEGIN_EVENT_TABLE( CVPCB_MAINFRAME, KIWAY_PLAYER )
Previously, acute angles (especially small angles) in zone outlines create incorrect shapes and sometimes strange shapes for clearance areas, when using generic algorithms.
This happens when zones outlines have "spikes", but not usually for smooth outlines.
* auto-save was broken for all sub sheets with are in a sub-directory of the project directory. (reason wxFileName::Normalize(), used to create the absolute path has issues with filenames starting by '$', perhaps due to env var which also start by $). the auto-save prefix is modified ( now AUTOSAVE_PREFIX_FILENAME which defines "_save_" ) and defined only once.
* auto-save files from sub-sheets were not found due to the fact the path was not set (fixed by Blair Bonnet's patch)
added the example gen_gerber_and_drill_files_board.py in demos, which shows how to do that.
Fix a Printf format issue (shown in Debug mode) in Libedit (%d used for a size_t, changed in %zu)
Fix a i18n issue in field names when loading a component, if the language was changed during a session, and kicad not restarted (see Bug #1448654).
However changing the language needs restarting kicad, in order to have all messages or menus translated.
* Add code to test if any of the components in the schematic cache have been changed
in the component libraries.
* Prompt user to accept or reject components when changes are found.
* If the user chooses to use the components in the cache, create a new library with the old
components and add it to the beginning of the component library list so the schematic will
not be changed.
* Create dialogs to handle user feedback and status.
* Use "Close" in the file menu of every main frame window instead of the
mismatch of the terms "Close", "Exit", and "Quit".
* Change the terminology in the Pcbnew graphic text edit dialog to match the
module text edit dialog.
* Improve the layout of the Pcbnew graphic text dialog.
* Fix some wxPrintf parameter type assertions for 64 bit time_t.
* Fix all (at least I think I got all of them) duplicate menu accelerator
characters.
Now these parameters are stored in user config, not project config ( they are not really related to a given project, they are just a setup during an edition),
and the schematic editor and the component editor have now separate parameters, because they are separate editors with different constraints.
component editor: repeat pin enhancement (from and idea of Edward Johns)
Previously, only the lib named "power" was used (and therefore power parts defined in other libs not shown).
Now, all power parts can be loaded from any library.
Also, when loading power parts from the chose component dialog or the lib viewer, libs and parts are filtered: only power parts and libs containing power parts are listed.
Hotkeys: move a few global strings in the files where ther are actually used (and make them local.) and code cleaning.
Fix a few other minor issues.
* The SCH_COLLECTOR m_foundItems was being obsoleted after a pin name search.
If a library edit changed the found pin name, the cache still held the now
missing library pin and would segfault on next search due to the cache being
out of date.
This is due to the fact static strings flagged translated ( _("string") notation) are not translated when they are static only if they are not inside a dll.
When they are static inside a dll, the dictionary is already loaded, and the constructor translate them.
Therefore they can be translated twice in dialogs are calling wxGetTranslation to show them, if the application is run from kicad.
But if the application is run as stand alone, the translation is made only once (as expected).
Fix minor 3D viewer issues (includling change number of segments and its optimization to draw pad holes.)
Fix Bug #1439132 (track and via list on toolbar not always refresh after loading a board).
Remove useless tool in Modedit.
* Add footprint and drop table from the Pcbnew footprint library table menu
entry to make it clear to new users.
* Add component to the Eeschema library configuration menu entry.
legacy plugin: better compatibility with old brd files (current track width and current vias size, stored in SETUP section, were not read from file and incorrectly set)
Eeschema now uses dashed lines for graphic lines (to be consistent with plot functions and toolbal icon).
Fix an old bug in some envionments which warp the mouse on a bad monitor when opening eeschema, pcbnew and some other windows, only noticeable guys who are lucky enough to have more than one monitor.
Move items rework: enhancements: for some items (sheets, components, bus entries) the mouse cursor is no more wrapped to the anchor. For large symbols, this is better: they are more easy to place.
There is also a change when starting a move item command: the full screen is redraw, and therefore there is no artifact due to the XOR draw mode.
Some other minor coverity fixes (uninitialized members).
* move not shared files (sch_item_struct.*, sch_base_frame.h) to eeschema;
* move wxEeschemaStruct.h to eeschema and rename it schframe.h to be consistent with the other corresponding file name schframe.cpp;
* remove few not needed #include
Rename eeschema/dialogs/dialog_sch_find.fbp to dialog_schematic_find_base.fbp, to be consistent with other dialogs.
Pcbnew run from the project manager: add menu Save Copy As..., which is the same command as Save As ... in stand alone mode, but with the constraints of a project (no cwd change, no board filename change, and keep project settings)
- the net file now has all project sheet title block using node 'sheets' and 'sheet'
- Updated bom_with_title_block_2_csv. Note, its only going to output the root title block.
- corrected the code that violated the code policy. i.e. added the extra space to make the code more readable
- Restored bom2csv.xsl to its original form
- Added bom_with_title_block_2_csv.xsl which has the new BOM generator.
