A similar fix was reverted (453ce611) because of crashes.
The crashes occurred simply because of a failed check that
we have a buffer view before using it. That is now done in
this commit.
The below commit description is copied from the original
commit (fb05011a):
Empty selections can cause confusing behavior for a few reasons:
(1) some functions behave differently depending on whether there is a
selection. If I press delete, nothing happens (where I expect the
character or inset before the cusor to be deleted). If I toggle bold or
emphasize nothing happens (where if there is no selection the entire
word is toggled). There are other LyX functions that depend on whether
there is a selection or not. Further, I wonder if any part of LyX's code
assumes that if there is a selection it is non-empty.
(2) menu options are incorrectly set. For example, the scissors icon.
For remaining empty selection issues, see #9222.

Our TempFile class uses QTemporaryFile internally, and, on Windows,
this keeps the file locked so that we cannot rename it. So we have
to release the lock.
There are 3 possible actions (in order)
* select current cell
* select all calls of inset
* select the inset from outside (in the containing inset)
This fixes completely #7727.
The shape of the parbreak separator is slightly changed in order to
better distinguish it from the forced newline. This allows using the
same color of the plain version without risk of confusion.
The problem was that some parts of the code assume that the right margin is part of the width of the row. This is not the case, only the left margin (Row::x) is counted.
The code has been fixed and documented to reflect this.
Add display_pixel_ratio to buffer params to use it for displays with high resolution.
It holds the highest ratio between physical pixels and device-independent pixels of the LyX application.
Preview snippets will be generated using this value to get high resolution preview.
Add pixel_ratio to graphics params to use it for displays with high resolution.
It holds the ratio between physical pixels and device-independent pixels of the graphics.
Introduce the concept of pixel ratio: the ratio of physical and device independent pixels.
This is useful for rendering of content on Retina-displays of Mac hardware with high resolution.
Qt has real support for this starting with Qt5 - therefore it has to be compiled conditionally.
This change uses some work of Marcelo Galvão Póvoa, thank you.
What a selection spans several cells in mathed, and a deletion occurs though LFUN_CHAR_DELETE_FORWARD for example, only the case of a proper grid was handled. When no such grid exists, all cells between the first and the last index are cleared now.
If there is only one row, a new line should not be appended. If
there is more than one row, the new line should not be appended for
the last row.
For example, if in LyX there was "as you can see in $x$ there..." a
copy/paste would lead to a newline after "x".
lyxfind.cpp(findNextChange, findPreviousChange, findChange, selectChange): factor the change-selection part out of the change-finding part
Text.cpp (acceptOrRejectChanges): call only selectChange
mhchem loads amsmath and needs therefore be loaded after it but before packages that redefine commands of amsmath. We already take care of esint but not of wasysym
If we are testing tex2lyx the first time, then the userdir
is empty. We call now configure.py to initalize in case it is needed.
The algorithm to detect if reconfigure is needed mimics the lyx behaviour.
The check for a latex format is very fragile. Both libmagic and our
guessing from contents cannot distinguish the pstex and pdftex formats
used by the xfig external inset. Moreover, it may also happen that
lyx files are mistaken as latex ones. Thus, when the guessed format
is latex, the only solution is to give precedence to the format
determined by the file extension.
This commit replaces almost all occurrences of Q_WS_WIN to comply
with Qt5. The remaining occurrences should *not* be replaced,
because the guarded code won't compile on Qt5.
The command line argument -geometry WIDTHxHEIGHT±XOFF±YOFF
specifies a preferred size and location for the main window.
Currently, this is semi-broken on Windows. Indeed, only
specifying WIDTH and HEIGHT places the main window such that
the left and top borders are invisible such that the window cannot
be moved. Moreover, the XOFF and YOFF parts (when present) are
used to specify the distance of the window from the left and top
or right and bottom edges of the screen, when using '+' or '-',
respectively. However, -geometry 800x600-20-20, instead of placing
the window such that its bottom and right edges are at a distance
of 20 pixels from the corresponding screen edges, places the
window such that its left and top borders are out of the screen.
This is corrected by this commit, which also addresses the fact
that Qt5 does not define Q_WS_WIN anymore.
Investigation of bug #9236 showed that crash to be due to a Paragraph's
holding a dangling pointer to an old and deleted Layout after the
DocumentClass was reset. Since the backtraces look almost identical, it
seems likely that we have the same problem here.
Since this crash seems almost always to involve tables, I looked at the
code in switchBetweenClasses() and found that the Paragraphs that belong
to "hidden" table cells are not seen by the initial recursion using a
ParIterator: It skips right over them. This was confirmed by test code
suggested by Enrico, with results reported in Trac.
The present patch attempts to deal with this problem in the second
recursion, over Insets. When we see an InsetTabular, we call a new
routine that recurses through the cells, looking for hidden ones. If it
finds a hidden one, it then resets the Layout for the cell's Paragraphs
(there should be only one, but we do not make any assumptions) to the
PlainLayout that belongs to the new DocumentClass. This is good enough,
since such cells never have content.
There is extensive discussion of the patch here:
https://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org/msg185095.html
Additional testing by Enrico and me confirmed the existence of the
dangling pointer.
This makes virtually impossible copying a separator inset whithout
also copying the end of paragraph. These insets are not supposed to
be directly inserted by users. For example, the parbreak version
represents a LaTeX paragraph break, not a LyX one. So, if it is
possible to copy and paste it by alone, an unsespecting user may be
surprised to see a paragraph break in the output but not on the LyX
screen (because of the lack of indentation, for example).
In this way, it also becomes a LyX par break from a user point of
view, not any more useful than simply introducing a par break by
hitting <return> (except in those cases where it makes a difference,
in which case they are automatically inserted by LyX).
