- finished the solid_geometry restore after edit in Excellon Editor
- finished plotting selection for each tool in the Excellon Tool Table
- fixed the camlib.Excellon.bounds() function for the new type of Excellon geometry therefore fixed the canvas selection, too
- fixed a bug where in Excellon editor when editing a file, a tool was automatically added. That is supposed to happen only for empty newly created Excellon Objects.
- in Excellon Editor added a shortcut key 'T' that popup a window allowing to enter a new Tool with the set diameter
- in App added a shortcut key 'T' that popup a windows allowing to enter a new Tool with set diameter only when the Selected tab is on focus and only if a Geometry object is selected
- changed the shortcut key for Transform Tool from 'T' to 'ALT+T'
- fixed bug in Geometry Selected tab that generated error when used tool offset was less than half of either total length or half of total width. Now the app signal the issue with a status bar message
- added Double Validator for the Offset value so only float numbers can be entered.
- in App added a shortcut key 'T' that popup a windows allowing to enter a new Tool with set diameter only when the Tool tab is on focus and only if a NCC Tool or Paint Area Tool object is installed in the Tool Tab
- fixed FlatCAM crash when trying to make drills GCode out of a file that have only slots.
- made the shell toggle shortcut key work when focused on Selected Tab; toggle units shortcut also
- changed the messages for Units COnversion
- fixed bug in multigeometry geometry not having the bounds in self.options and crashing the GCode generation
- fixed bug that crashed whole application in case that the GCode editor is activated on a Tool gcode that is defective.
- fixed bug in Marlin postprocessor for the Excellon files; the header and toolchange event always used the parenthesis witch is not compatible with GCode for Marlin
- fixed a issue with a move to Z_move before any toolchange
- now the special messages in the Shell are color coded according to the level. Before they all were RED. Now the WARNINGS are yellow, ERRORS are red and SUCCESS is a dark green. Also the level is in CAPS LOCK to make them more obvious
- some more changes to GUI interface (solved issues)
- added some status bar messages in the Geometry Editor to guide the user when using the Geometry Tools
- now the '`' shortcut key that shows the 'shortcut key list' in Editors points to the same window which is created in a tab no longer as a pop-up window. This tab can be detached if needed.
- fixed gcode conversion/scale (on units change) when multiple values are found on each line
- replaced the pop-up window for the shortcut list with a new detachable tab
- removed the pop-up messages from the rotate, skew, flip commands
- more fixes in camlib.CNCJob regarding usage of toolchange (in case it is None)
- fixed postprocessor files to work with toolchange_xy parameter value = None (no values in Edit - Preferences fields)
- in case that the Toolchange X,Y parameter in Selected (or in Preferences) are deleted then the app will still do the job using the current coordinates for toolchange
- fixed an issue in camlib.CNCJob where tha variable self.toolchange_xy was used for 2 different purposes which created loss of information.
- added a new menu entry for the Gerber Join function: Edit -> Conversions -> "Join Gerber(s) to Gerber" allowing joining Gerber objects into a final Gerber object
- 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
- updated function for copy of an Excellon object for the case when the object has slots
- updated FlatCAMExcellon.merge() function to work in case some (or all) of the merged objects have slots
- added tooltips in Excellon tool table headers
- in Excellon Tool Table the columns are now only selectable by clicking on the header (sorting is done automatically)
- if CNCJob from Excellon then hide the CNC tools table in CNCJob Object
- the units mentioned in HPGL format are only METRIC therefore if FlatCAM units are in INCH they will be transform to METRIC
- the minimum unit in HPGL is 0.025mm therefore the coordinates are rounded to a multiple of 0.025mm
- fixed the message box layout when asking to save the current work
- made sure that whenever the HPGL postprocessor is selected the Toolchange is always ON and the MultiDepth is OFF
- the HPGL postprocessor entry is not allowed in Excellon Object postprocessor selection combobox as it is only applicable for Geometry
- the version date in GCode header is now the one set in FlatCAMApp.App.version_date
- fixed bug in postprocessor files: number of drills is now calculated only for the Excellon objects in toolchange function (only Excellon objects have drills)
