These functions were previously in `draftutils.utils`,
and are related to grouping objects and finding objects
inside groups. These include `get_group_names`, `ungroup`,
`get_windows`, `get_group_contents`, `get_movable_children`.
These are imported in the main `Draft.py` module, so compatibility
is retained.
Modules which use these functions are updated; these include
Gui Commands like `Move`, `Rotate`, `Scale`, `AddToGroup`,
as well as objects like `DrawingView` and `Shape2DView`,
and `ViewProviderClone`.
The code inside the `importDXF` module is also updated.
The Arch Workbench uses many of these functions
but it does so from the `Draft` namespace, so these edits
don't change the situation for these commands.
In Python 3 `super()` can be used without an argument
in order to get the parent class, `super()`.
In Python 2 the present class must be used as an argument,
`super(ThisClass, self)`.
This commit is done to support Python 2,
as without it all Gui Command tools will be broken
and will fail to launch, even if the unit tests pass.
Also, set the `__metaclass__` variable to `type`.
This is done to turn all classes into "new style" classes
in Python 2. This is required so `super()` works correctly
in this version of Pyton.
This commit can be reverted once Python 2 support
is completely dropped, and only Python 3 compatible code
is used.
The scale operation can be used with subelements, vertices
and edges, but in this case this only works with polylines
(wires) because internally the functions `scaleVertex`
and `scaleEdges` only work with polylines that have a `Points`
property.
When doing a copy and scale, it also calls `copyScaledEdges`
which calls `joinWires`, so problems with joining wires
may also be present when performing this operation.
