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
First, ensure that we calculate the bbox of the imported elements.
If the total BBOX is outside our allowed value, refused to import. This
needs to be scaled or addressed in an external editor
If the bbox fits, then make sure that we clamp it such that the largest
element is still within our bounds
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/18523
- fix regression: allow grouping or not imported items
- store more settings in Pcbnew settings: all options are now stored.
- default tolerance to connect items is now 0.01 mm. 1 mm is a too big value,
and can create serious artifacts in imported outlines.
Removed no-longer-required differentiation between importing
footprint vs board objects.
Renamed files to match the dialog.
Made Position At and Set Layer optional checkboxes.
Removed Group Items checkbox. (In the unlikely event that you don't
want a group, do an UnGroup after importing.)
Flattened out labelled-sizers in the dialog.
Removed importers blacklist, which hasn't been active for at least 4
years.
Fixed undo/redo bug that caused items to be no-longer-grouped after
a redo.
