Also simplifies the scoring algorithm so that it only
differentiates between exact-match, match-at-start and
any-match. The rest of the position-based matching
stuff is gone, as is the knowledge of the name vs the
keywords vs the description. All that is left to the
provider of the weighted search terms array.
CHANGED: Symbol chooser search now considers custom symbol fields
Visible columns can be controlled in database libraries.
In standard KiCad libraries, we show columns for all custom fields for now.
Customizable column visibility will be added in the future.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/11946
When using the "Filter" search for footprints/symbols, the least
surprising outcome is that the window filters the existing
(alphabetically sorted) list but does not change the display order based
on scoring.
This also needs to adjust the fix for
https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/259 as that assumed the
selected element would be the first below the group (not the case if we
are sorting alphabetically)
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/11746
This is under the supposition that we can't set the column widths
on some Mac instances because the host controls haven't yet been
created. This is primarily conjecture based on looking at things
that have the *possibility* of going wrong. Why this only happens
in some installs is beyond me.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/5479
So many things can go wrong with this control in GTK. We have to
collapse the tree when updating the search string to avoid a crash when
referencing a child object but collapsing the tree will iterate over
elements and crash when we have deleted a symbol.
The temporary fix for this nonsense is to carefully order the calls.
We only need to collapse the search tree if we are not keeping our state
(in other words if we are fully re-building the tree)

Various architecture upgrades to support this.
Creating a BOARD now requires a valid PROJECT, which caused
some (mostly transparent) changes to the Python API internals.
ADDED: Project local settings file
CHANGED: Board design settings are no longer stored in PCB file
CHANGED: Net classes are no longer stored in PCB file
CHANGED: Importing board settings now reads boards, not just projects
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/2578
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/4070
CHANGED: Settings are now stored in versioned sub-directories
ADDED: First-run dialog for migrating settings from a previous version
CHANGED: Settings are now stored as JSON files instead of wxConfig-style INI files
CHANGED: Color settings are now all stored in a separate settings file
CHANGED: The symbol editor and footprint editor now have their own settings files
CHANGED: Color settings are no longer exposed through BOARD object
CHANGED: Page layout editor now uses Eeschema's color scheme
Settings are now managed through a central SETTINGS_MANAGER held by PGM_BASE.
Existing settings will be migrated from the wxConfig format on first run of each application.
Per-application settings are now stored in one class for each application.
Using a UTF8 char inside a C string can work on unix, but not on Windows.
It must be explicitly converted in a unicode value inside a wide string
(like a wxString)
* Move column width manipulation into the lib tree adapter
* Fix issue with GTK where if someone types too fast, the part
column gets 0 width.
Fixes: lp:1841584
* https://bugs.launchpad.net/kicad/+bug/1841584
When filtering, we update the width of the displayed column to ensure
the full text is visible to the user. Check is rough, based on line
width (doesn't completely account for differing char widths) but is
sufficient for the approximate difference

Be more intelligent about sorting lib tree items. (Footprint
entries, for instance, come out of an already-sorted list.)
Don't recreate menus twice when laoding Footprint Editor.
More pervasive use of WX_FILENAME to avoid expensive calls to
wxFileName::SplitPath() and string concatenation.
For POSIX kernels do all the work on the file-system side so we
don't have to keep converting back and forth between encodings.
