* zoom and center to extents - variables in tables weren't properly initialized, causing stray recursive evaluation errors - replaced table->active index with table->active_row pointer - added row selection - for fun, added tab.fpd row selection example git-svn-id: http://svn.openmoko.org/trunk/eda/fped@5375 99fdad57-331a-0410-800a-d7fa5415bdb3

Missing features:
|
|
- populate input area (still needed: mm/mil, rezoom)
|
|
- add vec editor (need to be able to edit name, x, and y)
|
|
- add obj editor
|
|
- add table/var/loop editor (missing: add col/row, add/del var/table/loop)
|
|
- add default unit (combine with grid unit selection ?)
|
|
- consider adding auto/mm/mil selection for each dimension
|
|
- add measurements (partly done. still needed: find out how to define
|
|
non-trivial endpoints, e.g., some vector in last iteration of loop)
|
|
- add KiCad output
|
|
- add postscript output
|
|
- add option to include/omit helper vecs and frames (display and postscript)
|
|
|
|
Error detection:
|
|
- eliminate duplicate instances
|
|
|
|
Style:
|
|
- make column of entry field greedily consume all unallocated space
|
|
|
|
Bugs:
|
|
- default silk width has no business being hard-coded in obj.c
|
|
|
|
Code cleanup:
|
|
- merge edit_unique with edit_name
|
|
- merge find_var_in_frame with similar mechanisms in expr.c and fpd.y
|
|
- add regression tests
|
|
|
|
Open decisions:
|
|
- decide on table presentation (merge frame and vars into single entity ?)
|
|
- Q: should loop be (start, last) or (start, iterations) ? or start ... last ?
|
|
- change vector circle color ? (also, highlight on hover ?)
|
|
- Q: allow reassignment of vector names ?
|
|
A1: no: would cause confusion in GUI (vectors could become orphaned)
|
|
A2: yes. but we don't change the linkage.
|
|
- Q: how do we handle stacks of objects ?
|
|
A: we don't but we make it easy to avoid them, by giving a good zoom,
|
|
flexible selection, and by disallowing stacks of identical objects in the
|
|
first place.
|
|
- Q: add frame arguments ? (e.g., .frame pad(pin_num_offset) ...)
|
|
we can already approximate this by introducing an intermediate table that
|
|
sets up the arguments (provided that we don't consider vectors as well)
|
|
- Q: should we make it a requirement to generate objects only once ?
|
|
A: almost certainly yes.
|
|
|
|
Future directions:
|
|
- future: consider using cairo instead of gdk
|
|
- live update of value when entering strings and expressions ?
|
|
- advanced: non-standard solder mask
|
|
- advanced: solder paste exceptions (subtractive, additive)
|
|
- advanced: silk line width
|
|
- future: when encountering an error after a change, we could try to find the
|
|
same element in the old instance, and select it
|
|
- future: consider editing off-canvas items in place
