|
* List control for layer sort on the fly
|
|
* Add excellon2 drill file support (small good library)

KiCad
|
|
-----
|
|
Add to the Wiki what the minimum screen size resolution requirement is to run
|
|
Kicad, so that people do not try and use the program and then whine that they
|
|
cannot see everything they need. We cannot make everyone happy, and by trying
|
|
to make those with crappy computers happy, we risk making those with high res
|
|
computers unhappy. Establish a minimum, then ignore support complaints coming
|
|
from folks with less than that minimum.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
PCBNew
|
|
------
|
|
P0) JP Charras:
|
|
We should need to separate color handling from visibility handling:
|
|
Visibilty variables nus be owned by the current board.
|
|
(Modedit and Board editor must have separate visibility options:
|
|
Modedit should have always all items and layers visibles)
|
|
Colors options must be left global
|
|
(Modedit and Board editor must have common color options)
|
|
|
|
P1) Fix the color box which shows which layer is selected, or change tool tip.
|
|
It is not tracking layer changes. Look into WinEDA_PcbFrame::syncLayerBox(),
|
|
which is probably where fix should go.
|
|
>> JP Charras: For me this is now working.
|
|
|
|
Dick:
|
|
P2) Write accessors for all items in PCB_VISIBLE such as grid control, so that
|
|
the write accessor can fire change notifications to known listeners.
|
|
(Accessors should always be used in general for every class, but in the case
|
|
of PCB_VISIBLE I think we need them in WinEDA_PcbFrame, BOARD and
|
|
EDA_Settings.
|
|
<class>::IsElementVisible( aPCB_VISIBLE );
|
|
<class>::SetElementVisiblity( aPCB_VISIBLE, bool isVisible );
|
|
Two of the 3 classes already have these functions. Once the functions are
|
|
in place, it is a simple matter to decide and move where the actual data
|
|
is stored without affecting client code. The top most access point should
|
|
be WinEDA_PcbVisible, because some data is best retained there and this is
|
|
the "controller" part of MVC in PCBNEW. Some data is best saved in the BOARD.
|
|
We should go through the list of PCB_VISIBLE and decide on this in a separate email.
|
|
|
|
* Fix block copy/move preview to not view only a border, we should
|
|
see the moved/copied parts.
|
|
|
|
* Fix DIALOG_PAD_PROPERTIES_BASE class to use actual layer names in the BOARD.
|
|
|
|
* Use BOARD_ITEM::MenuIcon() in the onrightclick.cpp
|
|
* Document specctra round tripper, and fix the english translation of help.
|
|
* Add ARC support to gerber polygons.
|
|
* Need to add polygon aperture type.
|
|
Then example 2 in RS274xrevd_e.pdf will draw properly.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Dick:
|
|
D1) Get the nested quote support for DSNLEXER fixed up and committed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
LAYER_WIDGET for PCBNEW (Dick)
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
L6) Test, and fix up any remaining issues with the PCB_VISIBLE support after P2)
|
|
is done. This way we can fire change notifications to multiple GUI items
|
|
all interested in the same setting, such as the two grid buttons which
|
|
have to remain synchronized. Using accessors makes this easy.
|
|
|
|
L7) make the bitmapbutton a staticbitmap, and make its size dependent on
|
|
the point size.
|
|
|
|
L8) LAYER_WIDGET::GetBestSize() needs platform independence.
|
|
|
|
L9) On board load, ReFill() is called, this should also update the Render
|
|
checkboxes and colors. Will need to extend the widget API.
|
|
|
|
L10)still thinking about background colors, easier now without wxformbuilder.
