- make sure that the laser postprocessor that do move on the Z axis (like 'GRBL_laser_Z') accept negative values for the Z focus
- fixed issue in highlighter such that the keywords that have an underscore included are highlighted
- rearranged the default keywords
- fixed the generatecncjob() method default parameters to reflect new data structure names
- in Geometry object the default self.options dictionary is updated with keys that reflect new data structure
- fixed CNCJob plot scaling when using Roland preprocessors
- in Roland preprocessors added the use of spindlespeed
- made sure that the preprocessors that don't use the gcode_header still use the start gcode
- Fixed the SolderPaste Plugin regarding the special designation 'SP' job type and 'DN' tool shape
- some fixes in the GCode Editor regarding the new changes in the data structure
- some changes in data tools structure ('tool_type' to ['data']['tools_mill_job_type])
- some strings changes
4.07.2021
- optimized the Milling Plugin preferences
- added more preferences for v-shape tools in the Milling Plugin Preferences
- deactivated the automatic disable of the Cut Z parameter when selecting a v-shape tool in Milling Plugin
- in Milling Plugin added some protections against receiving signals from widgets without objectName set
- in Milling Plugin made sure that the Custom offset field is displayed only when it is needed (selected from Offset Type combobox)
- added some requirements asked by vispy v0.7.0
- if the generated Gcode is empty then the app will know and will not create a CNCJob object
- modified the Tool Table in Milling Plugin: now the tool type parameter is part of the Tool parameters and no longer in the Tool Table
- working on a Kosy CNC machine preprocessor file
- added a new preprocessor named 'Check_points' which is to be used to check if the PCB is well aligned in position (used by at least the Corners Tool)
- Tool Corners - added a new feature that creates a verification GCode by moving in the locations positions; modfied the UI a bit
- Drilling Tool - removed the mandatory Toolchange event added even if the Toolchange was not selected
- Excellon and Geometry objects no longer have the self.options dict overwritten with the application defaults
- Drilling Tool - first tool that benefit from using the object options instead of application defaults; this is useful if an object is recreated on project load
- Drilling Tool - fixed it to update the UI form also for common parameters on object change
- by default now a new blank Geometry object created by FlatCAM is of type multigeo
- made sure that optimizations of lines when importing SVG or DXF as lines will not encounter polygons but only LinesStrings or LinearRings, otherwise having crashes
- fixed the import SVG and import DXF, when importing as Geometry to be imported as multigeo tool
- fixed the import SVG and import DXF, the source files will be saved as loaded into the source_file attribute of the resulting object (be it Geometry or Gerber)
- Tool Drilling - more optimizations regarding of using Toolchange as opposed to not using it
- modfied the preprocessors to work with the new properties for Excellon objects
- added to preprocessors information regarding the X,Y position at the end of the job
- Tool Drilling made sure that on Toolchange event after toolchange event the tool feedrate is set
- fixed partially the Excellon Editor to work with the new data structure
- fixed Excellon export to work with the new data structure
- fixed all transformations in the Excellon object attributes; still need to fix the App Tools that creates or use Exellon objects
- fixed the issue with factory_defaults being saved every time the app start
- fixed the preferences not being saved to a file when the Save button is pressed in Edit -> Preferences
- fixed and updated the Transform Tools in the Editors
- in Excellon UI removed the tools table column for Offset Z and used the UI form parameter
- updated the Excellon Editor to add for each tool a 'data' dictionary
- updated all FlatCAM tools to use the new confirmation message that show if the entered value is within range or outside
- fix for plotting Excellon objects if the color is changed and then the object is moved
- laying the GUI for a new Tool: Punch Gerber Tool which will add holes in the Gerber apertures
