- 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)
- replaced in FlatCAM Tools and in FLatCAMObj.py and in Editors all references to hardcoded decimals in string formats for tools with a variable declared in the __init__()
- 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
