Added palette management from GUI, reworked settings management with …

[dowmeister]

• Added palette management from GUI with hex colors converted to SolidBrush RGB and saved to settings
• Reworked settings management adding new objects and served with a singleton object
• Tile generation in async with Task, no UI block anymore
• Added Status bar strip with label and progress bar managed async with Invoke and Action
• Added Tile Size and Map Padding setting in Tile Generator settings form
• All generator form options persisted in settings json

Very nice!
Just two things:
When starting the program and no settings file exists yet, it won't use the default values because it initializes the palette and tileGenerator settings in the Settings constructor, and so they will never be null in the SettingsManager constructor (where the default values get set).

Async tile generation seems to be missing?

oh yes, sorry. it was a bug already discovered and fixed on local version but I have other code edited so didn't committed it (was trying to play with GeoJson).

for the async....mmm.. It should be committed, I will check!

[dowmeister]

for some reason I've lost the async development... maybe messed up with some guy merge.. I'll rewrite it :)

Hi, any update on meeting this pr?

[dowmeister]

Hi,
i've continued to work on my fork and after the last changes you did on develop branch i've merged again solving all confilcts:

What i've got so far:

• Maintained my implementation of SettingsManager persisting to the disk and available in the whole app as a Singleton
• Map Palette settings saving
• Added Bus Stops saving with specific settings
• Added City boundaries detection to Overlays export
• Added specific button to export only map data without generating the tiles

Can you consider to merge it?
