Hello all!
Indeed, hierarchical sheet rotation was not straight forward to support, but I
finally managed it. :-)
The attached patch support bloc rotation on all objects.
The SCH_SHEET_PIN object is now inherited from HIER_LABEL who simplify somewhat
the code. sheetpin move is working in any
orientation, plot function is updated also.
As hierarchical sheet rotation was asked by Jean-Pierre, it was required to
also store extra information in .sch file.
I found a relatively transparent approach to avoid incompatibilities between
version:
The format is left unchanged, only the sheet_pin edge property is extended from
'L','R' to 'L','R','T','B' for respectively
Left,Right,Top,Bottom. Previous versions will read any edge value other than
'R' as 'L' with little complaint.
It would be easy to add hotkey event on hierarchical sheet object for rotate
and mirror (without block selection), but this is
behond the scope of adding support of block rotation and this patch is already
large enough.
I tested this patch with sheets containing various objects, editing and plot
functions are OK also. But I don't have really
complex shematics to extensively validate everything. your experience maybe
helpful.
I hope this contribution will be useful to many!
regards
Pascal

Hi,
I recently switched to kicad and found it very promising!
Block rotation was however a missing feature in schematic editor, quite
annoying ....
Please find below my first contribution to this great project.
The attached patch file adds the following feature to eeschema:
* block vertical mirror + popup menu
* block counter-clockwise rotate + popup menu
* hotkey on block mirror_X (X)
* hotkey on block mirror_Y (Y)
* hotkey on block rotate ccw (R)
* Some cleaning on existing code of block mirror: code defined in
headers (.h) is moved to corresponding (.cpp) file
Theses block operations are repeatable, (ie could be executed more than
once; usefull for rotations) and move block remain
active until placement. (comparable behaviour as moving/rotating single
components)
Your patch was committed in rev 2475
Thanks.
