Version 0.100
Compiled from provided commit logs and contributor notes.
Overview
This release (v0.100) collects a large set of new features, UI and editor improvements, element and symbol updates, build and packaging fixes, dependency upgrades, translations, and a broad set of bug fixes and stability improvements. It is intended as a stable, feature-rich stepping stone toward the next major workflows for symbol editing, terminal/strip handling and export improvements.
Highlights / Key Features
- Terminal Strip / Terminal Strip Editor
- New TerminalStripItem type and related editor workflow added.
- Support for drawing and displaying terminal bridges and links in the editor.
- Full editor support (layout preview, save/load into .qet files) and undo support for terminal strip operations.
- New Example Projects
- Several new example projects included, notably photovoltaic (PV) examples to help users getting started with PV designs.
- Improved Export / Print Handling
- Export limits adjusted and better handling of QPainter/printing boundaries to avoid export artefacts and out-of-range errors.
- Export dialog updated to allow larger pixel limits where appropriate.
- Element & Symbol Additions
- New elements and symbols added (including vendor-specific elements and additional sensors/Arduino components).
- Improvements to element import & metadata handling.
- Packaging & Multi-arch Support
- Updated packaging scripts for AppImage, Flatpak, Snap and macOS deployment. Improved aarch64/arm64 support.
Detailed Changes
Editor & UX
- Better handling for rotation, flip and mirror operations in the element editor:
- Primitives and text rotation behavior improved.
- Finer rotation increments and predictable text orientation after flips/rotations.
- Wiring and conductor behavior:
- More robust creation and movement of wires and conductor bundles.
- Improved text attachment and positioning for wires and improved stability while editing complex conductor networks.
- TerminalStrip editor: see Highlights - includes drawing, preview, layout editing, persistent storage in the project file and undo support.
- Element Editor & Symbol Trim/Sort:
- Improved trimming/normalization of element metadata.
- Better sorting and error handling for element imports (DXF and other formats).
- Small UI improvements: About dialog updates, autosave spinbox ranges, improved tooltips and mouse-hover help for dynamic texts.
New & Updated Elements
- New elements added for industrial and automation workflows (including Siemens-related elements, logic elements, sensors and Arduino components).
- Symbol library additions and cleanup; improved defaults for newly added symbols.
- Element meta-data cleanup: article numbers, descriptions, and manufacturer fields were normalized and trimmed on import.
Export / Printing / PDF
- Adjusted internal export limits to avoid hitting QPainter size restrictions; users can now export larger, high-resolution images/prints in more cases.
- Better handling of page sizes and printer-related geometry using QRectF improvements.
- PDF export improvements to increase reliability of exported vector content.
Build, Dependencies, Packaging
- Upgrades of core test and build dependencies:
- Catch2 upgraded to v2.13.10.
- googletest upgraded to v1.17.0.
- CMake fixes and i18n handling corrected for nl_BE and other locales.
- Packaging scripts updated across platforms (AppImage/Flatpak/Snap/macOS deploy) including fixes for aarch64/arm64.
- Submodule updates (e.g., qelectrotech-elements, pugixml, SingleApplication) synchronized where needed.
Internationalization & Translations
- Large translation updates across many languages: German (DE)
