You had to set the line width in the SVG export dialog in order to
change the displayed line width in the 3d viewer. The line width did
not affect the SVG export. Removing in favor of the Board design
settings for line widths
Plot Gerber format default values: X2 attributes enabled.
Gerber job file: use a trick to truncate floating values to 4 digits in mantissa.
It gives a much better readability and 0.1 micron is enough for
mechanical dimensions
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.
* Split up the thirdparty code into the thirdparty folder (#3637)
* Create a new kimath static library containing all the math functions
This is part of cleaning the build system for #1906.
The board design settings file keeps our default values for various
thicknesses. We use this to replace a number of magic numbers with the
defined value to help self-document the code.
This option is not yet activated because the net attributes are not yet fully fixed by Ucamco, in Gerber file format specifications.
(To activate it, see dialog_plot.cpp, line 43)
Looked like a minor issue, but was due to a more serious bug, when using 2 different DSN_LEXERS which were not synchronized.
The fix is not perfect, but unfortunately, the parser used to read the PCB_PLOT_PARAMS in .kicad_pcb files is also used in legacy board file reader.
Therefore it is better than write 2 parser functions, one for legacy files, the other for the .kicad_pcb files, which make the same thing.
2) Change from legacy Cu stack to counting down from top=(F_Cu or 0).
The old Cu stack required knowing the count of Cu layers to make
sense of the layer number when converting to many exported file types.
The new Cu stack is more commonly used, although ours still gives
B_Cu a fixed number.
3) Introduce class LSET and enum LAYER_ID.
4) Change *.kicad_pcb file format version to 4 from 3.
5) Change fixed names Inner1_Cu-Inner14_Cu to In1_Cu-In30_Cu and their
meanings are typically flipped.
6) Moved the #define LAYER_N_* stuff into legacy_plugin.cpp where they
can die a quiet death, and switch to enum LAYER_ID symbols throughout.
7) Removed the LEGACY_PLUGIN::Save() and FootprintSave() functions.
You will need to convert to the format immediately, *.kicad_pcb and
*.kicad_mod (=pretty) since legacy format was never going to know
about 32 Cu layers and additional technical layers and the reversed Cu
stack.
