Debugging spree:
----------------
Rules:
1. bugs that aim for 1.5.0 should be listed here.
2. whoever fixes a bug sign his name before the bug and move it to the
end of this file,
along with a lyx-devel announcement.

BUGS:
-----
* Spell checking cannot be invoked a second time!
SPELL CHECKING (Joost 4/11/06)
* In the TOC dialog, switching between the different TOC types (TOC,
Table, Float, etc.) is broken
* Spell checking cannot be invoked a second time.
* The first time the spell checker is started, an empty window shown instead
of the first misspelled word.
TABLE OF CONTENTS
* In the TOC dialog, switching between the different TOC types (TOC, Table,
Float, etc.) is broken.
* In the TOC dialog, the slider for altering the display level is
non-functional (not implemented).
* TOC crashes (simply make a few sections, subsections, sections; then
add TOC before all sections and click on the left button)
* TOC crashes (simply make a few sections, subsections, sections; then add TOC
before all sections and click on the left button)
* If you open Document>Settings... for the first time,
the dialog is much too small to show its content; if
you invoke it the second time, everything is fine
* Items in the TOC cannot be moved using drag & drop (Joost 4/11/06).
* If you open Edit>Test Style... for the first time,
the choice text for "Never Toggled>Size" doesn't fit
in the selection box (note that in German, texts
are a bit longer than in English). Interestingly,
if you invoke the dialog a second time, its button sizes
are adjusted to their content.
* In the math control panel, "Detach panel" is broken
(only 1 button is visible in the detached panel)
* In the math control panel, switching between different
"functions" is broken (retry a couple of times)
* edit->text style->capitalize/lower/upper case doesn't work
due to the change tracking-related changes
* The multi-window thing is broken. When I switch windows I get crashes
all the time.
* Spell checking is broken. The first time I run it an empty window is
shown instead of the first misspelled word. After clicking a button I'm
able to correct some words, but afterwards the spell checker will never
run again.
* Window positions are not remembered correctly. Each time I open a
window again it has moved towards the bottom of the screen. Maybe the
inner window position is applied to the outer window?
* The visual table size selection on the the "Insert Table" dialog is gone.
* Icons in the toolbars do not have the correct size, they are stretched
a few pixels compared to 1.4. This makes the images look jagged and the
initial window size has also become to small to show the whole toolbar.
* Toolbars always show on the top of the screen, even though they are
set to "bottom" in the ui file.
* The initial size of Preferences window is too small. When I try to
resize it the window jumps to the right size.
* There should be a close button on the tabs.
* Polishing:
- In TOC, the buttons "Up", "Down", "Promote", and
"Demote" are not self-explaining. Why don't we group
them in two pairs: Section Up/Down, Level Up/Down?
The arrangement of the buttons may also give some hint
to the user.
- In the math control panel, there is no icon for
"Set Math Font"
- In the math control panel, the buttons are too small
- In the "Math Delimiters" dialog, there is no need
to repeat the term "Size" for all values in the selection box;
the label is already named "Size"
- some English menu items don't have a '&' character.

* Too much painting 1 (Edwin 3/11/2006): when i click in the workarea (to put the cursor
in another part of the text) the screen is repainted *twice* whereas
it seems to me that no repainting is necessary at all.
DIALOGS
* Too much painting 2 (Edwin 3/11/2006): There is also a lot of painting going on when
selecting text. When selecting a word the whole screen is repainted.
* If you open Document>Settings... or Tools>Preferences... for the first time,
the dialog is much too small to show its content; if you invoke it the second
time, everything is fine.
* Too much painting 3 (Edwin 3/11/2006): the screen is repainted even when the selection
does not change (moving the mouse with the left button pushed down

MATH CONTROL PANEL

visible in the detached panel).

OTHER PANELS
* The visual table size selection on the the "Insert Table" dialog is gone
(Joost 3/11/06).
* The UI for bullet selection in the documents settings looks weird
(Joost 4/11/06):
There is a big listbox just to select one of the four levels.
Isn't this supposed to be a drop-down list or something like that?
MULTIPLE WINDOWS / DOCUMENTS
* There are cursor problems when the same document is opened in two windows
(Joost 4/11/06).
Information from Abdel:
Yes, this is the famous dEPM bug (delete Empty Paragraph Mechanism).
There are two ways to fix that:
1) the correct way: fix the dEPM to not invalidate the cursor.
2) the easy way: disable the cursor on focus out event and re-enable it at
focus in event and jump the saved position (at focus out).
* The title bar does not contain the document name when a new window is opened
(Joost 4/11/06).
* There should be a close button on the tabs (Joost 3/11/06).
TOOLBARS
* Toolbars always show on the top of the screen, even though they are set to
"bottom" in the ui file (Joost 3/11/06).
* When toolbars are hidden, they pop up again after clicking on the document
area (Joost 4/11/06).
* Icons in the toolbars do not have the correct size, they are stretched a few
pixels compared to 1.4. This makes the images look jagged and the initial
window size has also become to small to show the whole toolbar
(Joost 4/11/06).
EDITING
* edit->text style->capitalize/lower/upper case doesn't work due to the change
tracking-related changes.
MENUS
* Some English menu items don't have a '&' character. (box, date, paste...)
- src/frontends/qt4/ui/QCitationUi.ui:70 "&Selected citations:" should be
"&Selected Citations:".

* Too much painting 3 (Edwin 3/11/2006): the screen is repainted even when the
selection does not change (moving the mouse with the left button pushed down
always triggers a repaint).
* Slowness on MAC 1 (Bennett 3/11/06):
There seems to be a fraction of a second lag
between when I press a key and when the letter appears on screen --
but the time lag doesn't obviously vary with the amount of text on
the screen (as was the case previously). Right now, the speed of
normal text entry makes LyX-1.5 usable on my
not-fast-but-still-not-outdated computer. (Not sure how it would be
on my slow-but-still-usable laptop.)

Speed is still an issue typing in insets: noticeable lag between
typing and text appearing on screen. This does not seem to be
compounded by having nested insets, and it seems to be compounded
only a little by the amount of text in the inset. (This is

especially a problem in math environments.)
* Slowness on MAC 3 (Bennett 3/11/06): Some operations that with
1.4 are pretty much instantaneous (inserting a footnote, dragging
the mouse, switching to LyX from another application, opening
dialogs, etc.) take quite a long time to complete in 1.5.

MAC OS X
* Cursor is still not visible on MAC Bennett (3/11/06).
* Drawing oddities on MAC (Bennett 3/11/06):
lines occasionally overlapping vertically, math characters not properly
aligned vertically. Not sure if anyone else has seen these.
Lines occasionally overlapping vertically, math characters not properly

* Many issues with toolbars on MAC (Bennett 3/11/06):
Most obvious of which are that icons are spaced too widely and that
changes in the visibility of the toolbars with the GUI do not stick
after the screen is redrawn).

* Mac Crash (Bennett 3/11/06):
On launch from GUI (by double-clicking on the LyX
icon). As I reported before, this happens only when using the GUI;
I can successfully start LyX from the Terminal, with or without gdb.
Hence the only debug information I get is this, printed out in Console.app
when I try launching from the GUI (note that the number changes everytime):

Wrong command line option `-psn_0_182321153'. Exiting.
Hint from Andreas Vox: LyX must accept any option starting with '-psn' and pass it oon to the
Qt initialisation. On Mac this gives the app a link to the Window system.

* Performance on Windows is bad. On my system, scrolling the User Guide
takes 10 seconds with LyX 1.4 and more than 30 seconds with LyX 1.5.
Although I have a modern computer, it all feels very slow.
FIXED (Abdel 04/10/06): This was due to spurious message in QLPainter.C,
I've put that in Debug::PAINTING, so 1.5 is faster than 1.4 on Windows XP
on my 3 years old laptop (18s for the UserGuide test).
