Beta Build

• Add user input validation to the TOML information form
  • Make all fields required, user can’t proceed without providing all fields
  • Ensure user is not attempting to duplicate an existing board
• Add designate pinout functionality
  • Left-clicking image adds a blue pin circle to the UI with the pin name
  • Right-clicking an existing pin deletes it
  • Double-clicking a pin renames it with the name in the pin name box
  • User can change the size of all pins with the pin radius slider
  • Information about the user’s pinouts are saved as EGUI Rects and a vector of String pin names
• When the user selects done, the pinout information is translated into SVG circle elements, and these are appended to the end of the SVG file
• When the user adds the generated board to the editor, they can access their created pins and make connections
• Improve error messages for user when selecting an SVG file
  • Display the specific error that is thrown
  • Add a new error kind (ImageNotPNG) that specifies that the SVG was not derived from a PNG
    • SVG parser only support PNG image types
  • Previously, a confusing NoImage error was thrown when the image type was not a PNG
  • Add supporting error messages for the user when the ImageNotPNG error is thrown
    • “SVG Image must be derived from a PNG”
• Add Unit Tests for generating TOML File and SVG File
