v5.99: Rounder for Tracks issue

[pdp7]

I tried out the current master branch of this repo and the current v5.99 KiCad build. I know that v5.99 is not officially supported but I thought I would report in case it is useful.

When I try to round a track, the plugin does create the curve out of line segments like normal but the line segments are not visible unless I click on them. Here is a video to try to demostrate what is happening:

Feel free to close if this is not useful. And please let me know if any more information would be useful.

    Move specialized plotter classes from plotter.h to specific plotter_xx.h
    plotter.h contains now only a header common to all plotters.
    The code does not actually change, but it allows modifying a specific plotter
    without recompiling most of kicad files.

Interesting observation: the tracks are rounded as expected if I save the file, close it and then re-open.

@pdp7 this issue is in wip... https://github.com/easyw/RF-tools-KiCAD/issues/19 Unfortunately ATM I have little time to investigate (mainly I'm using kicad stable)

[pdp7]

@easyw thanks. in that case, should I close this issue?

[easyw]

@pdp7 I would take this open until I will have time to fix this issue... your report has useful feedback

[easyw]

@pdp7 it seems it fine now. I'm closing it.
