Rename cursor to caret to in order to avoid ambiguity. The caret is
now the blinking thing only.
Remove unused header contents, and some not so useful methods.
No intended change of behavior.
The trick is to remember in BufferView what has been done at the
previous draw, so that the row that contained the caret can be
repainted if needed.
To this end, add an argument paint_caret to BufferView, although
painting the caret is not the job of the BufferView (at this point).
BufferView::needRepaint will act as an interface with
TextMetrics::drawParagraph to know whether the painting of a given
row should be forced.
Currently everything is done at the top row level, so that, if the
caret is in a large table, the whole table will have to be repainted.
It is not clear yet that this is necessary.
Historically, because of two-stage drawing, LyX has been painting on a
Pixmap, and this pixmap is copied to screen at paint event time.
Now that we have three-stage drawing, it is possible to delay the
painting to actual paint event and avoid the intermediate Pixmap.
Known bug: the cursor is never erased.
Normally the two stages of drawing are
1/ compute metrics of insets/rows/paragraphs/mathrow...
2/ draw the elements and cache their positions
Now the three stages are
1/ metrics
2/ nodraw: do not draw the elements, but cache their position
3/ draw the elements (and store again their position; it does not
seems to hurt performance).
Revive the NullPainter: this replaces the setDrawingEnabled mechanism
with a painter that does nothing. The advantage is that updatePosCache
(renamed from setPosCache) does not need anymore to be invoked from
the frontend.
updatePosCache (the nodraw stage) is called at the end of
BufferView::updateMetrics.
Allow a LaTeX backend to run external commands after user confirmation.
This is a per document and per machine setting. The authorization has
to be given through the document settings pane, but is not recorded in
the document itself. Moving the document to either another computer or
another directory on the same computer revokes the authorization.
This can also be done by right clicking the red icon that appears in
the status bar when a document is marked as one requiring shell escape.
The patch also checks whether the user has added the -shell-escape
option to a LaTeX converter and nags the user to remove the option
(which would be used for all documents) in favor of the (per document)
support offered by LyX.
QSignalBlocker in updateScrollbar is too strong and prevents the scroll bar from
communicating with its scroll area. The only solution to block signals between
specifically between two objects is to disconnect. This makes sense in this
case, by making updateScrollbar responsible for managing the connection in the
first place.
This is a consequence of e91572a0, although it is not clear why. The
contextMenuEvent code of the workarea should not delegate context
menu when it cannot honor it.
Also fix a small memory leak.
Fixes bug #10616.
In some (not yet understood) situations, the paragraph metrics cache
is empty in generateSyntheticMouseEvent(). We just avoid a crash in
this case, but there is probably an underlying problem that deserves
being fixed.
Fixes bug #10324.
Starting at 61b2bd5e, boost::bind was progressively replaced with
std::bind. They are not interchangeable though. boost::bind implements
the tracking of boost::signals{,2}::trackable objects. Now that
std::bind has completely replaced boost::bind, tracking never occurred.
This commit replaces boost::signals2::trackable with the new preferred
boost::signals2 methods: scoped_connections or slot::track_foreign. The
support::Trackable class introduced is less safe but easier for transitioning
old code.
Fixes the crash at #8261.
- Adds a currentZoom variable which holds the current zoom level.
- The zoom stored in preferences is used as default zoom level (default binding:
M+0).
- The currentZoom is saved and restored via QSettings.
- Adds LFUN buffer-zoom for (re)setting zoom.
Introduce a distinction between being read-only and having the read-only flag. A
buffer is read-only if either it has been externally modified or if it has the
read-only flag.
Instead of using a coverity annotation (that does not work) it is
better to really iinitialize the members of the object, just in case
somebody decides to actually use the DisplayPath() constructor.
Starting with Qt 5.6, setting the environment variable QT_SCALE_FACTOR
makes everything accordingly bigger. So, if QT_SCALE_FACTOR=1.2, all
text and GUI elements are rendered 20% bigger. However, if an application
does not account for this, everything will also look "blocky".
With this commit, all text and images will be scaled remaining sharp.
This works whether a HiDpi screen is used or not, but is mostly useful
with a HiDpi screen, as all GUI elements are more spaced apart and one
can use the mouse for selecting things without requiring a high precision.
It turns out that Cursor::getFont() does not return a fully realized
font in some cases. This patch uses real_current_font instead, which
seems better anyway.
I suspect that all uses of getFont() should be removed, but this is
not code that I know well.
Fixes bug #10478.
This should avoid performance problems related to the window update machinery.
Moreover this fixes a crash introduced by 82808fea when closing a file.
Note that GuiWorkArea::Private already had a read_only_ member, but it
was unused.
Also rename LyXVC::vcname() to LyXVC::vcstatus() since it now contains
directly the UI string to be shown.
The window title is built from the current file name and its
mofidication state. We use our own code instead of the automatic title
bar provided when windowFileName() is set because
1/ Qt does not keep the full path name
2/ Qt does not yield a nice application name
The "read only" and "version control" status are shown in the status bar:
* for read only we use the tab read only emblem (with the right size)
* for version control, we show the name of the backend (using a new
vcname() method of the backend).
The iconText() of the view is not updated anymore, since this is
deprecated in Qt5.
A static local variable is guaranteed to be initialized only once, and in time.
Lambda expressions can be used to perform complex initialization of those static
variables on the spot.
(starting from: gcc >= 4.8, msvc >= 2015)
Prevent setRange() from causing a recursive call to scrollTo(). Reduces three
calls of scrollTo() to one call for all scrolling functions of the scroll bar
(e.g. clicking on the arrow, dragging, or clicking somewhere on the scrollbar).
The Qt documentation states that tabAt() returns -1 if the position
is not over a tab. This behavior has been consistent since Qt 4.3
[1]. This commit's improvement likely makes the code faster in two
ways:
(1) we do not need to loop through potentially all tabs
(2) we only need to look up the tab index corresponding with one
position
posIsTab() is not currently used intensively so no practical gain in
speed is achieved, but it protects against future use.

This is the default behavior of Chromium and Firefox. The main
appeal is that instead of having to precisely click on the 'x' to
close a tab, one can more easily middle-click anywhere in the tab.
The tab is closed if the middle button is pressed on a tab and is
relased on the same tab. After pressing, the user may move the mouse
over other tabs but as long as they move it back to the tab where
they initiated the press before they release, the close will
execute. This is how the feature works in Chromium and Firefox.
Nothing is done if the user middle-clicks on the blank part of the
tab bar. This is consistent with Chromium. Firefox, on the other
hand, opens a new tab. In LyX one can already double-click the blank
part to open a new tab, and in feedback from lyx-users [1] most
expected and desired that nothing be done in this case.

A chunk of code in an event handler seems to be unnecessary to me
because the event that the situation handles never makes it this far
in the event handling hierarchy. I'm not sure why this is, and thus
I'm not sure if this is true in all cases (e.g. Qt version) and if
it will be true in the future so I leave this code for now.
* Fix bug #10261 : KDE smartly adds conflicting accelerators.
* Prevent bugs like #9495 in the future.
Issues (non-regression):
* It does not appear possible to prevent Ubuntu's Unity from grabbing the
accelerators for the menus. For instance Alt+A still opens _Affichage in the
French localization.
* Justification and nicer line breaks.
* Much nicer tooltip for lists of bibliographical references.
* Removed unnecessary iterated copies of the string buffer in
InsetText::ToolTipText() which looked bad. This function used to be costly
(cf64064), maybe it is quicker now.
The main thing it does is integrate mouse-modifiers into the
FuncRequest machinery. Previously, these had to be passed
separately, which led to some ugly function signatures.
There was also an unnecessary form of the constructor, which
can now be removed.
No change of behavior is intended.
These were found by cppcheck:
Member variable 'x' is not initialized in the constructor.
The crash #9788 would not have happened if this had been done earlier.
Use the function support:truncateWithEllipsis() to shorten a docstring with
... at the end. Actually we use U+2026 HORIZONTAL ELLIPSIS instead of "..." when
automatically shortening strings. This is to be consistent with Qt's own
truncation and is much nicer on the screen.
This includes the bugs #9575 and #9572 regarding broken text elision in the
outliner.
Known issues (non-regressions):
* TocBackend::updateItem() should be rewritten to update all TOCs. (#8386)
* "..." should be replaced with … everywhere else on the interface (including
translation strings).
* We should prefer to rely on QFontMetrics::elidedText() to truncate strings
with an ellipsis whenever possible, or an equivalent for the buffer view
dependent on the font metrics. See the warning in src/support/lstrings.h.
If a compressed svg icon is present, load it instead of a png one.
Also introduce two more sizes (huge and giant icons) that should be
useful when using hires displays, as svg icons automatically scale
to the desired size without loss of quality.
This fixes the -geometry command line option and restores the
"Use icons from system's theme" checkbox in the preferences.
There is still code addressing Qt4 and xlib that has to be
audited. This code cannot be compiled with Qt5 because the
default backend is now xcb and not xlib. I have marked such
code with a "FIXME QT5" comment.
This implement horizontal scrolling of rows to allow editing insets
(math, tabular...) that are larger then the screen. The scrolling happens
as the cursor moves, in order to make sure that the cursor is always visible.
This effectively closes an 11 years old bug.
This feature is the result of the work of Hashini Senaratne as part of
Google Summer of Code 2013. The code has been cleaned-up for inclusion
and remaining bugs have been fixed.
Fixes bug: #1083.
