- fixed issue in Paint Tool where the first added tool was expected to have a float diameter but it was a string
- updated the translation files to the latest state in the app
- re-added the CNC tool diameter entry for the CNCjob object in Selected tab.FCSpinner
- since the CNCjob geometry creation is only useful for graphical purposes and have no impact on the GCode creation I have removed the cascaded union on the GCode geometry therefore speeding up the Gcode display by many factors (perhaps hundreds of times faster)
- added support for key-based panning in 3D graphic engine. Moving the mouse wheel while pressing the CTRL key will pan up-down and while pressing SHIFT key will pan left-right
- marked in gray color the rows in the Bookmark Manager table that will populate the BookMark menu
- made sure that only one instance of the BookmarkManager class is active at one time
- changed the way a new FlatCAMScript object is made, the method that is processing the Tcl commands when the Run button is clicked is moved to the FlatCAMObj.FlatCAMScript() class
- reused the Multiprocessing Pool declared in the App for the ToolRulesCheck() class
- adapted the Project context menu for the new types of FLatCAM objects
- modified the setup_recent_files to accommodate the new FlatCAM objects
- made sure that when an FlatCAM script object is deleted, it's associated Tab is closed
- created a new class that holds all the Code Editor functionality and integrated as a Editor in FlatCAM, the location is in flatcamEditors folder
- remade all the functions for view_source, scripts and view_code to use the new TextEditor class; now all the Code Editor tabs are being kept alive, before only one could be in an open state
- added new settings in Edit -> Preferences -> Gerber for Gerber Units and Gerber Zeros to be used as defaults in case that those informations are missing from the Gerber file
- for Gerber object in Selected Tab added ability to chose a V-Shape tool and therefore control the isolation better by adjusting the cut width of the isolation in function of the cut depth, tip width of the tool and the tip angle of the tool
- added a new tool named Minimum Distance Tool who will calculate the minimum distance between two objects; key shortcut: SHIFT + M
- finished the Minimum Distance Tool in case of using it at the object level (not in Editors)
- made sure that if the big mouse cursor is selected, the utility geometry in Excellon Editor has a thicker line width (2 pixels now) so it is visible over the geometry of the mouse cursor
- if there are (x, y) coordinates in the clipboard, when launching the "Jump to" function, those coordinates will be preloaded in the Dialog box.
- when the combo SHIFT + LMB is executed there is no longer a deselection of objects
- when the "Jump to" function is called, the mouse cursor (if active) will be moved to the new position and the screen position labels will be updated accordingly
- changed the icon for Open Script and reused it for the Check Rules Tool
- added posibility of using a big mouse cursor or a small mouse cursor. The big mouse cursor is made from 2 infinite lines. This was implemented for both graphic engines
- added ability to change the cursor size when the small mouse cursor is selected in Preferences -> General
- added a 'Milling Type' radio button in Geometry Editor Preferences to contorl the type of geometry will be generated in the Geo Editor (for conventional milling or for the climb milling)
- added the functionality to allow climb/conventional milling selection for the geometry created in the Geometry Editor
- now any Geometry that is edited in Geometry editor will have coordinates ordered such that the resulting Gcode will allow the selected milling type in the 'Milling Type' radio button in Geometry Editor Preferences (which depends also of the spindle direction)
- some strings update
- French Google-translation at 100%
- German Google-translation update to 100%
- in legacy graphic engine, fixed issue where immediately after changing the mouse cursor snapping the mouse cursor shape was not updated
- in legacy graphic engine, fixed issue where while zooming the mouse cursor shape was not updated
- in legacy graphic engine, fixed issue where immediately after panning finished the mouse cursor shape was not updated
- fixed a color format bug in Tool Move for 3D engine
- made sure that when the Tool Move is used on a Gerber file with mark shapes active, those mark shapes are deleted before the actual move
- fixed bug in display of the apertures marked in the Aperture table found in the Gerber Selected tab and through this made it to also work with the legacy graphic engine
- fixed annotation in Mark Area Tool in Gerber Editor to work in legacy graphic engine
- in legacy graphic engine fixed the travel vs cut lines in CNCJob objects
- final fix for key shortcuts with modifier in legacy graphic engine
- refactored some of the code in the legacy graphic engine
- legacy graphic engine - made the key events work (simple or with modifiers)
- legacy graphic engine - made the mouse cursor work (enabled/disabled, position report); snapping is not moving the cursor yet
- added some fixes in the the file extension detection
- added some status messages for the Tcl script related methods
- made sure that optionally, when a script is run then it is also loaded into the code editor
- added control over the display of Sys Tray Icon in Edit -> Preferences -> General -> GUI Settings -> Sys Tray Icon checkbox
- added a new entry in Menu -> View -> Redraw All which is doing what the name says: redraw all loaded objects
- fixed issue where in TCl Shell the Windows paths were not understood due of backslash symbol understood as escape symbol instead of path separator
- made sure that in for the TclCommand cncjob and for the drillcncjob if one of the args is stated but no value then the value used will be the default one
- made available the TSA algorithm for drill path optimization when the used OS is 64bit. When used OS is 32bit the only available algorithm is TSA
