These changes fix a few instances of the following type of warning:
error: ‘void QListWidget::setItemSelected(const QListWidgetItem*, bool)’ is deprecated: Use QListWidgetItem::setSelected() instead [-Werror=deprecated-declarations]
as well as similar warnings for setItemHidden() and
setItemExpanded(). These are just warnings now, but it is planned to
remove the methods for Qt 6:
https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-73048
I tested that LyX can still be built against Qt 4.8.7 with this
commit. Indeed, these methods have been deprecated for a while (it
is just that QT_DEPRECATED_WARNINGS was only turned on by default
starting with 5.13.0). See, e.g.,
https://doc.qt.io/archives/qt-4.7/qlistwidget-obsolete.html
Using a dialog may trigger a redraw at times where the metrics caches
have not been updated yet. To fix this, do as in paintEvent() and
abort caret blinking if there is an open undo group.
Move the decision to skip the caret painting to showCaret(), closer to
where real work happens. hideCaret () is now an alias for
showCaret(false), which allows some code refactoring.
See also commit c7496a11b2.
Fixes bug #11763 (although it does not trigger on master).
I've long wondered why dialogs seem to update twice when it seems
they just need to update once. It seems it was this code. But it
was only put there to deal with a problem with code in the button
controllers that was disabled in 2007! So I'm going to try removing
it. If we start seeing weird behavior with dialogs in master, then
this will be why.
The above mentionned patch did paint the background of the sublabel to
avoid "bold-like" effect. However the correct backgound color is the
row's one, not the inset's one.
The realPath() implementation on Windows works only for files and
not for directories. By using an API available starting from Vista
it is possible to fix it in a simple way.
I also took into account using the Qt QFileInfo::canonicalFilePath(),
but it turns out to not work when a path component is a junction
(tested with Qt 5.14.1).
Due to this, it is not possible compiling or using LyX on Windows
versions earlier than Vista.
