Recommendation is to avoid using the year nomenclature as this
information is already encoded in the git repo. Avoids needing to
repeatly update.
Also updates AUTHORS.txt from current repo with contributor names
Also adds a mode for AUTOADDED fields.
Also fixes a couple of bugs where a manual-level autoplaced
symbol would get reset back to auto-level when autoplaced.
Remove the PROFILE definitions from the incremental connectivity
profiling so a special build isn't required. If the starting and
stopping the profile timer is excessive, we can add this back.

This is useful when you want to copy text content out to some
external program (or put it in a text item/box).
I'm not sure it's possible to intuit exactly what a user wants,
as you will often want to copy items as the real items, and sometimes
as text. While KiCad might be able to make a smart guess, external
programs will have no chance!
The sheet list is returned as a copy of the cached list rather than a
reference to prevent external code from changing the list. While not as
performant, it eliminates the risk of the sheet list being altered in
ways that could break the schematic. The sheet list should only be
updated by calling SCHEMATIC::RefreshHierarchy() when any appropriate
sheet changes are made.
Note to developers: there is something inherently different about how the
QA tests are loading and handling schematics versus the schematic editor.
Using the cached sheet list for the SCHEMATIC object will cause some QA
test to fail. This is why SCHEMATIC::Hierarchy() has not replaced
SCHEMATIC::BuildSheetListSortedByPageNumbers() everywhere.
This makes it easier to see which pins have alt modes
available. There is an option to turn them off.
The icon positions are chosen so they they shouldn't
interfere as far as possible:
* If the text is inside, the icon goes more inside
the body
* If the text is above/below the pin, it goes away from
the body
This means it won't collide with a symbol wall in
most cases, but some symbols with alt pins on opposing
sides may need to be widened if the icons are show.
Includes a rather fiddly refactor of the SCH_PIN painter
function, which needs quite a lot of massaging to allow
it to figure out where an icon would go. Quite a bit
of logic is broken out into smaller encapsulations with
less visible state to each chunk.
Icon modes for base-name-selected and alt-selected are
included, but only the former works due to information
being thrown away during the SCH_PAINTER tempPin
process.

PCB and footprint editors were already blocking this. Otherwise we would
get weird issues when pasting while drawing things like sheets or
textboxes that aren't selected while drawing.
This is a little more primitive than the pcbnew tool,
in the same way that the arc tool is also more primitive
(no interactive manager).
It works just about well enough to get the curves drawn,
but all these tools could do with some interactivity
in esschema and symbol editor.

When resizing the panel, it retrieves the last defined pane size
instead of the current one. To fix this, we need to trigger the event a
second time after the pane size has been defined. This avoid calling
m_AuiPanels.Update() that crashes windows if called directly

Schematics, symbols, boards and footprints all get the ability to store
files inside their file structures. File lookups now have a
kicad-embed:// URI to allow various parts of KiCad to refer to files
stored in this manner.
kicad-embed://datasheet.pdf references the file named "datasheet.pdf"
embedded in the document. Embeds are allowed in schematics, boards,
symbols and footprints. Currently supported embeddings are Datasheets,
3D Models and drawingsheets

Not all UNDO_REDO items have screens associated with them. We only care
about items that are added, changed or removed. The others are
modifications to libedit, origins, page settings, groupings or the
repeat flag
They are particularly damaging when our event loop
gets tied up in knots with the log message window
behind a modal window -- thereby locking up KiCad.
- Add a test to be sure a SCHEMATIC exists before trying to use it
- Delete items in Repeat list and undo/redo list before deleting the schematic
- Delete also these items when loading a new schematic (the repeat list was
not cleaned previously)
Before these fixes I see a use after delete issue due to dangling pointers
stored in Repeat list.
Also removes the side-effect that SCH_SHEET_LIST's
c'tor would sort the list (and write virtual page
numbers) anytime the starting sheet was the root.
Also, definitely don't build a SHEET_LIST (sorted or
otherwise) if you're not even going to use it.
Also don't build SCH_SHEET_LISTs on idle events. Better
to just always have the Next Sheet button enabled (we
already beep if you click it and there's no next sheet).
Also, use a SCREEN_LIST when you can. It's much cheaper
to create.
The benefit of incremental connectivity is only for larger
schematics. For smaller schematics, the downside of larger bug surface
outweighs the current benefits
Includes:
- Fix GAL to draw closed polygons in eeschema
- Add functionality to eeschema to draw arbitary polygons
- Update polygon item previews to have customisable edge colour
- Add new SCH_RULE_AREA class, derived from a poly SCH_SHAPE
- Add SCH_RULE_AREA to paint and plot methods
- Add new rule area color preference to themes
When we replace a symbol with one that has fewer pins, the old pins
are released, which leaves points to them in the connection graph
dangling. This updates the pointer to use the cloned copy in the undo
stack until the connection graph is rebuilt with the new data
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/17851
When changing from a larger part to a smaller part, the previously
existing pins may be removed from the screen but still linked to
elements in the connection graph because we don't set them dirty unless
the changed element overlaps

Ignore bus member connection subgraphs. They do not have a valid net
name nor do they contain schematic items. This prevents empty nodes
from being added to the tree. They can be reintroduced in the future
if someone wants to pursue it.
Freeze the wxTreeCtrl while populating it and thaw when done to prevent
any unnecessary repainting.
Add profiling to test how long it takes to rebuild the net navigator.
The recently added populate the navigator with all nets when no net
is highlighted has exposed some potential performances issues with some
versions of wxWidgets on certain platforms. Namely wxWidgets 3.2.4 on
Linux GTK.
Fix an issue where a sheet name change would not update the highlighted
net navigator resulting in a stale human readable sheet path.
Prevent the highlighted net navigator from being rebuilt twice when
loading a schematic. SCH_EDIT_FRAME::RefreshNetNavigator() was being
called from both SCH_EDIT_FRAME::UpdateHierarchyNavigator() and
SCH_EDIT_FRAME::RecalculateConnectivity().
Add a new trace helper "KICAD_UI_PROFILE" to show trace output when
profiling user interface performance. It's used in the net navigator
profiling mentioned above.
Reuse PROF_TIMER::Show() to generate string for PROF_TIMER::to_string().
The connectivity routine would consider symbols, overwriting unused
subgraphs for pins that were not in the change list. This is resolved
by updating the full connectivity to only use pins in the graph since
symbols are not connected independently.
In the process of adding QA tests for this change, additional issues
with the schematic QA were discovered. Specifically, we were not
properly setting the root sheet UUID. This was partially masked by a
const_cast setting of the RefDes in sch_symbol when called the RefDes
getter. This exposed the fact that our QA ERC numbers did not match the
schematic editor stand alone ERC numbers. So the test value for one
check needed to be updated
