- moved all the parsing out of the PDF Tool to a new file ParsePDF in the flatcamParsers folder
- trying to fix the pixmap load crash when running a FlatCAMScript
- updated the Cncjob to use the 'endxy' parameter which dictates the x,y position at the end of the job
- now the Tcl commands Drillcncjob and Cncjob can use the toolchangexy and endxy parameters with or without parenthesis (but no spaces allowed)
- modified the Tcl command Cncjob such that if some of the parameters are not used then the default values will be used (set with set_sys)
- modified the Tcl command Drillcncjob to use the defaults when some of the parameters are not used
- added a first new example script and added some files to work with
- added a new parameter that will store the home folder of the FlatCAM installation so we can access the example folder
- 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
- moved all the 'share' resources (icons) to the 'assets/resources' folder
- some more fixes to problems generated by latest changes in the open handlers
- modified the make_freezed.py script for the new location of the icons
- added a fix for the ConnectionRefusedError in Linux that is issued when first running after a FlatCAM crash
- 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']
- removed the import of the whole FlatCAMApp file only for the usage of GracefulException
- remove the import of FlatCAMApp and used alternate ways
- optimized the imports in some files
- moved the Bookmarksmanager and ToolDB classes into their own files
- solved some bugs that were not so visible in the Editors and HPGL parser
- split the FlatCAMObj file into multiple files located in the flatcamObjects folder and renamed the contained classes with names more suggestive
- updated the Google Translation for the German language
