- found that Pillow v >= 7.2 breaks Reportlab 3.5.53 (latest version) and creates an error in Film Tool when exporting PNG files. Pillow 7.2 still works.
- fixed the issue with factory_defaults being saved every time the app start
- fixed the preferences not being saved to a file when the Save button is pressed in Edit -> Preferences
- fixed and updated the Transform Tools in the Editors
- activated and updated the editing in the Aperture Table in the Gerber Editor; not all parameters can be edited for every type of aperture
- some strings updated
- added a new Tcl Command named SetPath which will set a path to be used by the Tcl commands. Once set will serve as a fallback path in case that the files fail to be opened first time. It will be persistent, saved in preferences.
- added the GUI for the new Open Example in the FIle -> Scripting menu.
- I am modifying all the open ... handlers to add a parameter that will flag if the method was launched from Tcl Shell. This way if the method will fail to open the filename (which include the path) it will try to open from a set fallback path.
- fixed issue #406, bug introduced recently (leftover changes).
- modified the ImportSVG Tcl command name to OpenSVG (open_svg alias)
- added a new Tcl command named OpenDXF (open_dxf alias)
- fixed some errors in Scripting features
- added a new Tcl command named GetPath as a convenient way to get the current default path stored in App.defaults['global_tcl_path']
- fixed a bug in extension detection for Gerber files that allowed in the filtered list files that extension *.gb*
- added a processEvents method in the Gerber parser parse_lines() method
- fixed UI showing before the initialization of FlatCAM is finished when the last state of GUI was maximized
- finished updating the TclCommand cncjob to work for multi-geo Geometry objects with the parameters from the args
- added a new splash image
- added a control in Preferences -> General -> GUI Settings -> Splash Screen that control if the splash screen is shown at startup
- the edited Gerber (or Excellon) object now is kept in the app after editing and the edited object is a new object
- added a message to the splash screen
- added the ability to choose an App QStyle out of the offered choices (different for each OS) to be applied at the next app start (Preferences -> General -> Gui Pref -> Style Combobox)
- added support for FlatCAM usage with High DPI monitors (4k). It is applied on the next app startup after change in Preferences -> General -> Gui Pref -> HDPI Support Checkbox
- reorganized the Edit -> Preferences -> Global
- redesigned the messagebox that is showed when quiting ot creating a New Project: now it has an option ('Cancel') to abort the process returning to the app
- add setup.py script,
- switch to use images via "share:" resource name
(this allows to work both versions of application:
- system wide installation,
- directly from source),
- add .desktop file,
- rename FlatCAM.py to flatcam and install it as an
executable script.
implement executing of tasks inside worker thread
cleanups, reimplement Isolate/New/OpenGerber as OOP style Shell commands
disable edit during shell execution, show some progress
add ability for breakpoints in other threads and only if available
add X11 safe flag, not sure what happen on windows
