This branch is where I (jmarc) try to implement string_wise metrics
|
||
|
computation. This is done through a series of cleanups. The expected
|
||
|
speed improvement will only be visible at the end of the road: indeed
|
||
|
for now we intend to keep unchanged behavior for testing purposes.
|
||
|
|
||
|
What is done:
|
||
|
* Make TextMetrics methods operate on Row objects: breakRow and
|
||
|
setRowHeight instead of rowBreakPoint and rowHeight.
|
||
|
* change breakRow operation to operate on text strings on which
|
||
|
metrics are computed. Note that for now FontMetrics::width(docstring)
|
||
|
still computes the sum of character widths, so that behavior is
|
||
|
unchanged.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Next steps:
|
||
|
* Make breakRow build a list of elements (string, inset,
|
||
|
separator,...) in the row. This will be reused by other methods
|
||
|
* get rid of rowWidth (breakRow does compute this)
|
||
|
* re-implement getColumnNearX using row elements
|
||
|
* re-implement x2pos using row elements
|
||
|
* re-implement row painting using row elements
|
||
|
* Finally, implement proper string metrics computation (with cache)
|
||
|
* profile and see how performance can be improved.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Difference in behavior
|
||
|
* words longer than the screen are no monger broken at an arbitrary
|
||
|
point. This will not be useful anymore with horizontal scrolling.
|
||
|
* end of paragraph markers metrics are computed with the font of the
|
||
|
actual text, not default font. This will be extended to the other
|
||
|
methods.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The other differences should be considered as bugs.
