- Move under rectangular selection
- Simplify available modes
- Link to new icon
- Make selection state persistent
- Allow additive/subtractive with KiCad configurable keys
This isn't the best possible UX (having the various modes immediately
available as graphical affordances would be best). But it's somewhat
discoverable, and at least shows the hotkey, if any, and it in the
context menu and not hidden in a toolbar right click menu. So if the
affordance-type system doesn't make it for v10, this will at least
provide something in eeschema.
the bitmap BITMAPS::calculator, although in bitmaps_list.h, does not exists.
A suitable bitmap can be BITMAPS::icon_pcbcalculator_24.
So it is now used in ACTIONS::showCalculatorTool()
Added m_signalsGrid context menu entries, Create a new cursor from every cell but Delete only from Cursor 3 and above
New entries are saved into their *.wbk files. Loading of current files should not be affected, as tested,
and on save they get the new property added.
Updates *.wbk file version to "7".
If the tab has more cursors than the loaded file, extra cursors should not be affected, otherwise new cursors shown up.
CursorD left hopefully untouched and kept the legacy behavior close to Cursors 1 & 2.
No more known bugs. It is now working as expected as tested on win11 and Debian 12.
m_cursorsGrid events also work.

Remove this hotkey from "toggle show cursor always" as this is a more
global option, not as needed (probably) in hotkeys.
Also re-arranged MD_SHIFT + MD_CTRL+ <key> to MD_CTRL + MD_SHIFT + <key>
in order to standardize and help searches in the future

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
These are context sensitive actions that increment "something"
about the selected item.
A generic 'increment' action can be produced, e.g. by other tools
or UI events, which has in increment step (positive or negative)
and an 'index' which determines what about the item should be
incremented - it's up to the increment action handler to decide
what that means.
And then add a primary and secondary inc/decrement action,
which allows to bind hotkeys to each.
Bind these to:
* Sym edit: increment pin names/number
increment text items
* Sch edit: increment lables and text
* FP/PCB: increment pin numbers
increment text items
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!
Also fixes grammar and capitalisation in a few tooltips.
Also standardises some terminology, such as
"Add" vs "Draw"/"Place" and "Assignment" vs "Association".

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

ADDED: Horizontal/vertical zoom for simulator plots, via mouse wheel,
toolbar buttons, menu commands, and hotkeys.
ADDED: Simulator preferences panel, populated with mouse wheel
and trackpad settings that control pan and zoom of simulator plots.
ADDED: Zoom In/Out Horizontally/Vertically commands that can be bound
to hotkeys.
CHANGED: Simulator plot scroll wheel gestures are no longer hard-coded
and can now be configured via the new Simulator preferences panel.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/16597
Other unreported bugs that were fixed:
- Fixed wierd, jumpy simulator plot view limiting behavior.
- Fixed Zoom In Center and Zoom Out Center commands not preserving
the simulator plot center point.
- Fixed simulator plot nudging when exported as PNGs.
- Fixed rectangular selection zoom being able to exceed simulator plot
view limits.
Notes:
- Provided new SIM_PREFERENCES struct to be used for future
simulator preferences set via the simulator preferences dialog.
- Bundled pre-existing EESCHEMA_SETTINGS::SIMULATOR settings into
EESCHEMA_SETTINGS::SIMULATOR::VIEW.
- Replaced mpWindow::EnableMouseWheelPan with more general
SetMouseWheelActions.
- Refactored and tidied up wxMathPlot's mpWindow code involved with
fitting, zooming, and panning.
- Consolidated long lists of duplicated member variable initializers to
a new mpWindow private delegated constructor.
- Provided provisional Zoom In/Out Horizontally/Vertically toolbar
icons that need improvement by a graphics designer.
- Provided gitignore entries for the Qt Creator IDE
(Don't require the same text to be put into the tooltip.
It's error-prone and also disallows us from having a separate
tooltip for toolbar buttons.)

Note: while we try to omit sizing info from FBP files, the list
controls assume way too wide a minimum width if they're not set.
Furthermore, sizing the dialog ends up leaving them a certain size
and clipping other elements is the dialog itself doesn't have limits
set. Sigh.
