2010-Feb-04 UPDATE Jean-Pierre Charras <jean-pierre.charras@gipsa-lab.inpg.fr>
|
|
================================================================================
|
|
++ gerbview:
|
|
Use layer_widget to manage gerber layers colors and visibility.
|
|
|
|
2010-Jan-31 UPDATE Jean-Pierre Charras <jean-pierre.charras@gipsa-lab.inpg.fr>
|
|
================================================================================
|
|
++ pcbnew:
|
|
More about work on color selection and items visibility:
|
|
removed global variables and a lot of redundancies
|
|
Now Modedit does not uses the visiblity options of the board editor
|
|
(That can create a problem if hide modules is activated)
|
|
work in progress but almost finished
|
|
|
|
|
|
2010-Jan-30 UPDATE Jean-Pierre Charras <jean-pierre.charras@gipsa-lab.inpg.fr>
|
|
================================================================================
|
|
++ pcbnew:
|
|
More about work on color selection and items visibility
|
|
work in progress
|
|
|
|
2010-Jan-29 UPDATE Jean-Pierre Charras <jean-pierre.charras@gipsa-lab.inpg.fr>
|
|
================================================================================
|
|
++ All:
|
|
added a test to solve a problem when cross compiling Kicad under Linux for Windows
|
|
Specific to countries that use a comma as separators in floating point numbers notation:
|
|
Depending on wxWideget version:
|
|
printed as 0,5 and read as 0.5
|
|
or
|
|
printed as 0.5 and read as 0,5
|
|
So float values are always broken in dialogs (many are seen as 0)
|
|
Now a test is made, and if there are problems relative to floats
|
|
(write/read conversion error),
|
|
use the C convention (always a point as separator)
|
|
|
|
++ eeschema:
|
|
Removed metrics grid values, that cannot be handled in schematic.
|
|
(because 2 items are seen as connected if they have the same coordinates
|
|
mixing mm and mils with internal units = 1 mil break netlist
|
|
and ERC calculations
|
|
So grid value *must* be an integer (in 1/1000 inch).
|
|
And metric grid is not very useful in schematic.
|
|
(Also 1 mil and 0.025 mm can be seen as the same value for a schematic that do not
|
|
needs precision in dimensions, so no need to have mils and mm in grid values)
|
|
|
|
++ pcbnew:
|
|
Starting work on color selection and items visibility
|
|
* code cleaning and removing global values.
|
|
* Separe visibility options for board editor and module editor
|
|
(work in progress, just starting)
|
|
|
|
|
|
2010-Jan-28 UPDATE Jean-Pierre Charras <jean-pierre.charras@gipsa-lab.inpg.fr>
|
|
================================================================================
|
|
*fixed eeschema crash when using the hotkey m (move) command.
|
|
* Pcbnew :added option to show/hide footprints values and/or references
|
|
See if show/hide footprints texts option is now always useful.
|
|
|
|
2010-Jan-27 UPDATE Jean-Pierre Charras <jean-pierre.charras@gipsa-lab.inpg.fr>
|
|
================================================================================
|
|
++ Pcbnew:
|
|
Code cleaning about visibility variables (duplicates) in draw functions.
|
|
Removed old color and visiblity dialog
|
|
work in progress
|
|
|
|
2010-Jan-24 UPDATE Jean-Pierre Charras <jean-pierre.charras@gipsa-lab.inpg.fr>
|
|
================================================================================
|
|
++ Pcbnew:
|
|
in variable names, change non existent word Hight to High
|
|
Remove redundant tool in left toolbar (option toolbar)
|
|
(this option is now in layers manager)
|
|
Show layers in horizontal combo box in same order as in layer manager.
|
|
|
|
++all:
|
|
minor code cleaning.
|
|
|
|
2010-Jan-23 UPDATE Dick Hollenbeck <dick@softplc.com>
|
|
================================================================================
|
|
++pcbnew's PCB_LAYER_WIDGET
|
|
Removed wxformbuilder dependency from LAYER_WIDGET, thus killing off
|
|
layer_widget_base.* and panel_layer_select.fbp.
|
|
Added aPointSize to LAYER_WIDGET constructor so it uses that font size.
|
|
Removed layer_widget.h from wxPcbStruct.h for faster compiles with less
|
|
dependencies, and this meant moving the class LYRS out of
|
|
class WinEDA_PcbFrame. While doing that I renamed it to PCB_LAYER_WIDGET.
|
|
Integration of PCB_LAYER_WIDGET into WinEDA_PcbFrame to fully support
|
|
the layer change logic. Added syncLayerWidget(),
|
|
* WinEDA_PcbFrame:
|
|
Added syncLayerWidget(), syncLayerBox() (via a rename), setActiveLayer(),
|
|
and getActiveLayer().
|
|
Use a font size in PCB_LAYER_WIDGET 80% of the system font size for systems
|
|
with screen resolution height <= 900, or 100% if not. See WinEDA_PcbFrame
|
|
constructor.
|
|
* See TODO.txt for more things that need to be done.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2010-Jan-23 UPDATE Jean-Pierre Charras <jean-pierre.charras@gipsa-lab.inpg.fr>
|
|
================================================================================
|
|
++ Pcbnew:
|
|
Update Layer manager display when changing active layer (from hotkey or menus)
|
|
fixed minor problems and fixed Layer Alignment Target bug.
|
|
|
|
2010-Jan-22 UPDATE Wayne Stambaugh <stambaughw@verizon.net>
|
|
================================================================================
|
|
Minor fixes and code cleaning.
|
|
|
|
* 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.
|
|
|
|
2010-Jan-21 UPDATE Dick Hollenbeck <dick@softplc.com>
|
|
================================================================================
|
|
++pcbnew
|
|
Integration of LAYER_WIDGET into WinEDA_PcbFrame. See
|
|
TODO.txt for more things that need to be done.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2010-Jan-17 UPDATE Jerry Jacobs <xor.gate.engineering[at]gmail[dot]com>
|
|
================================================================================
|
|
More work to make kicad more Mac OS X compliant.
|
|
* Workaround for wxAboutDialog bug.
|
|
* WXMAC needs wxID_EXIT to make closing the application function properly.
|
|
* Workaround for hotkeys, on Mac OS X we can't use Fx keys.
|
|
This needs to be further implemented and is a work in progress.
|
|
We need to modify the hotkey code to display Mac OS X the
|
|
special modifier keys in the hotkey list.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2010-Jan-18 UPDATE Dick Hollenbeck <dick@softplc.com>
|
|
================================================================================
|
|
++any
|
|
Finished up complete implementation of class LAYER_WIDGET and am now ready to
|
|
integrate it into PCBNEW. This class was kept as general as possible by
|
|
omitting as many Kicad document structures as possible, and so can be used
|
|
in GERBVIEW. For GERBVIEW it could benefit from some minor additional
|
|
work such as a "move up" function for layer order changes. This is a matter
|
|
of rearranging wxWindows within the m_LayersFlexGridSizer.
|
|
Integration into PCBNEW should be done in just a few days.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2010-Jan-17 UPDATE Jerry Jacobs <xor.gate.engineering[at]gmail[dot]com>
|
|
================================================================================
|
|
+ EESchema
|
|
+ Added Torsten Huter's patch for hotkeys
|
|
+ Moved recent opened documents to submenu
|
|
|
|
+ Pcbnew
|
|
+ Big (re)organisation of pcbframe menubar and cleanup
|
|
|
|
2010-Jan-13 UPDATE Wayne Stambaugh <stambaughw@verizon.net>
|
|
================================================================================
|
|
Minor bug fixes, compiler warning fixes and code cleaning.
|
|
|
|
* Fix debug asserts when passing NULL pointers to wxAuiPaneInfo.
|
|
* Fix Kicad main window sash sizer bug when using wxAui.
|
|
* Remove specctra_test from Visual Studio builds to prevent build errors.
|
|
* Add WIN32 to layer widget test so it will build properly on Visual Studio.
|
|
* Fixed compiler conversion warnings in PCBNew.
|
|
* Fixed worksheet print scaling in PCBNew.
|
|
* Minor code renaming.
|
|
|
|
2010-Jan-12 UPDATE Jean-Pierre Charras <jean-pierre.charras@gipsa-lab.inpg.fr>
|
|
================================================================================
|
|
++All
|
|
Use wxAutoBufferedPaintDC in OnPaint event
|
|
Seems solves slow grid redraw on some PC (tested under Window 7)
|
|
and is faster than use wxPaintDC, not buffered
|
|
(note MACOSX has natively a double buffer, so no change for MACOSX)
|
|
|
|
2010-Jan-08 UPDATE Jean-Pierre Charras <jean-pierre.charras@gipsa-lab.inpg.fr>
|
|
================================================================================
|
|
++Gerbview
|
|
Added support of arcs in polygons outlines.
|
|
Needed to show copper areas in some gerber files
|
|
Not fully tested but works better than without this support...
|
|
|
|
|
|
2010-Jan-03 UPDATE Jean-Pierre Charras <jean-pierre.charras@gipsa-lab.inpg.fr>
|
|
================================================================================
|
|
++pcbnew
|
|
- fixed a potential bug in a fill zone function: AddClearanceAreasPolygonsToPolysList()
|
|
- Try to fix a problem with AddClearanceAreasPolygonsToPolysList() under Window Vista and Window 7
|
|
This is perhaps a problem in kbool library
|
|
(a bug in Bool_Engine destructor ?)
|
|
It happens when:
|
|
- a lot of polygon corners are added in group A
|
|
- nothing in group B
|
|
- No operation asked in kbool engine ( that also has a bug if an operation is asked
|
|
with no polygon in group B)
|
|
- and call the Bool_Engine destructor.
|
|
Could be a stack error or overflow, very hard to locate and debug.
|
|
- Under Vista seems create always a crash.
|
|
- Under Window 7 sometimes create a crash.
|
|
- No problem under XP and Linux.
|
|
-Workaround:
|
|
Leave the group A void if group B is void.
|
|
I am not sure this change fix the problem.
|
|
Just it solves this problem with 2 samples boards that crash Pcbnew without this change.
|
|
|
|
2010-Jan-01 UPDATE Jean-Pierre Charras <jean-pierre.charras@gipsa-lab.inpg.fr>
|
|
================================================================================
|
|
++pcbnew
|
|
Rewrite plot dialog using wxDialogBlocks.
|
|
Display layers list according to the Setup layers dialog order.
|
|
++Gerbview
|
|
Write Gerbview plot dialog using wxDialogBlocks.
|
|
Do not use anymore the Pcbnew one.
