Previously, LyX did replace some words with typeset logos, and there was no
way to prvent this except putting them, in ERT (bug #4752). Now we have
special insets for these words, and standard text is left alone.
Previously, consecutive dashes in .lyx files were combined to endash and emdash
in some cases, and in other cases they were output as is. This made the code
complicated, and resulted in inconsitencies ((bug #3647).
Now, a dash in a .lyx file is always a dash in the output, for all flavours.
The special handling is moved to the input side, so that you still get an
endash if you type two hyphens. If needed, this can be changed or made
customizable without the need to update the file format again. Many thanks
for the fruitful mailing list dicsussion, which contributed significantly to
the final version.
For exports based on LaTeX, consecutive hyphens are only converted to endash
and emdash if the current font family is not typewriter, and if none of the
parent insets is an IPA inset. Now this is done for XHTML export as well.
This is a patch I originally sent to lyx-devel in 2012 with subject
'Load footmisc.sty instead of using copied code from obsolete stblftnt.sty'.
It now takes all comments into account: It works also if the user loads the
package herself, it can be disabled by providing the footmisc feature in a
layout, and it does not use the ugly \AtBeginDocument{}.
This branch implements string-wise metrics computation. The goal is to
have both good metrics computation (and font with proper kerning and
ligatures) and better performance than what we have with
force_paint_single_char. Moreover there has been some code
factorization in TextMetrics, where the same row-breaking algorithm
was basically implemented 3 times.
Globally, the new code is a bit shorter than the existing one, and it
is much cleaner. There is still a lot of potential for code removal,
especially in the RowPainter, which should be rewritten to use the new
Row information.
The bugs fixed and caused by this branch are tracked at ticket #9003:
http://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/9003
What is done:
* Make TextMetrics methods operate on Row objects: breakRow and
setRowHeight instead of rowBreakPoint and rowHeight.
* Change breakRow operation to operate at strings level to compute
metrics The list of elements is stored in the row object in visual
ordering, not logical. This will eventually allow to get rid of the
Bidi class.
* rename getColumnNearX to getPosNearX (and change code accordingly).
It does not make sense to return a position relative to the start of
row, since nobody needs this.
* Re-implement cursorX and getPosNearX using row elements.
* Get rid of lyxrc.force_paint_single_char. This was a workaround that
is not necessary anymore.
* Implement proper string metrics computation (with cache). Remove
useless workarounds which disable kerning and ligatures.
* Draw also RtL text string-wise. This speeds-up drawing.
* Do not cut strings at selection boundary in RowPainter. This avoids
ligature/kerning breaking in latin text, and bad rendering problems
in Arabic.
* Remove homebrew Arabic and Hebrew support from Encoding.cpp. We now
rely on Qt to do handle complex scripts.
* Get rid of LyXRC::rtl_support, which does not have a real use case.
* Fix display of [] and {} delimiters in Arabic scripts.
This variable was introduced to guard against any bad consequence of the then-new right-to-left
languages support. Let's be bold and get rid of it altogether!
Now right to left support is always enabled.
This is handled by Qt now.
Note that a small optimization (do not draw text that is to the left
of WorkArea) is removed because it cannot be guaranteed to be exact
anymore. It was probably not very useful anyway, and would become
useless once the RowPainter is rewritten to use Row information.
Update 00README_STR_METRICS_BRANCH.
The statement
if (pos < from + lyxrc.completion_minlength)
triggers a signed vs. unsigned warning. I don't know why this happens, it
could be a MSVC bug, or related to LLP64 (windows) vs. LP64 (unix)
programming model, or the C++ standard might be ambigous in the section
defining the "usual arithmetic conversions". However, using a temporary
variable is safe and works on all compilers.
With the old code, the last word of a paragraph would not be added in
the completion list. The key difference is to pass `from' instead of `pos'
to FontList::fontiterator.
Slight cleanup of the code.
The algorithm used for breaking a paragraph in LaTeX export is changed
for avoiding spurious blank lines causing too much vertical space.
This change is tied to the introduction of a new inset (with two
different specializations) helping in either outputing LaTeX paragraph
breaks or separating environments in LyX. Both of the above goals were
previously achieved by the ---Separator--- layout and can now be
accomplished by the new inset in a more natural way. As an example,
after leaving an environment by hitting the Return key for two times,
a third return automatically inserts a parbreak inset, which is
equivalent to the old separator layout, i.e., it also introduces a
blank line in the output. If this blank line is not wanted, the
parbreak separator can be changed to a plain separator by a right
click of the mouse. Of course, an environment can still be separated
by the following one by using the Alt+P+Return shortcut (or the
corresponding menu key), but now the plain separator inset is used
instead of the old separator layout, such that no blank line occurs in
the LaTeX output.
Old documents are converted such that the LaTeX output remains unchanged.
As a result of this conversion, the old separator layout is replaced by
the new parbreak inset, which may also appear in places where the old
algorithm was introducing blank lines while the new one is not.
Note that not all blank lines were actually affecting the LaTeX output,
because a blank line is simply ignored by the TeX engine when it occurs
in the so called "vertical mode" (e.g., after an alignment environment).
The old ---Separator--- layout is now gone and old layout files using it
are also automatically converted.
Round trip conversions between old and new format should leave a document
unchanged. This means that the new behavior about paragraph breaking is
not "carried back" to the old format. Indeed, this would need introducing
special LaTeX commands in ERT that would accumulate in roundtrip
conversions, horribly cluttering the document. So, when converting a
modified document to old formats, the LaTeX output may slightly differ in
vertical spacing if the document is processed by an old version of LyX.
In other words, forward compatibility is guaranteed, but not backwards.
In the current code each paragraph contains a map<Language,
WordList*>, which means that it contains a full copy of the language
object. Since these objects contain translation tables nowadays, this
is a very bad idea.
This patch simply replaces the Language key by a string.
When loading the Userguide on linux/x86_64, the total memory
consumption decreases from 36.27MB to 31.50MB.
We are not capable of handling two bibitems within one biblio paragraph.
That's why we have functions like Paragraph::brokenBiblio() and
Paragraph::fixBiblio(). So, if we fix the biblio by deleting the second
bibitem, we should not keep it as deleted.
This code caused a crash because the inset was released, but still kept as
deleted.
Fixes-bug: #8646.
Move the cursor in front of a bibitem and press enter.
Paragraph::fixBiblio will insert a new bibitem without a font in the new
paragraph. This will make Paragraph::fontSpan assert because the fontlist_
of the new paragraph is empty.
Using "Font no_font" in case no font was supplied was wrong. Instantiating a font object without specifying the language lead to a font object having the default_language that is hardcoded to "english". See Language::read().
This caused that there were spurious language changes in the LaTeX output
and made some document uncompilable.
This reverts commit 3619954590.
Previously, an empty paragraph would always yield something like:
<div><a id='magicparid-35' /></div>
because we had no way to "defer" the anchor tag. Now this is wrapped
into the div, in effect, and we abandon it all if there's no content.
An iterator is typicall incremented passed the valid data into the 'end'
state. However, if this means that other functions are called with invalid
parameter, we should fix this.
This explains why fontSpan was called with pos==size() while this was not
expected to happen.
This patch reverts partly f5ad0c128a (Jean-Marc Lasgouttes; Get rid of
annoying warning message).

need the master buffer here, too: in looking up fonts during XHTML

I'm half tempted to pass the master buffer to these routines, though
there are times, I think, when we want the actual buffer: e.g., when
looking up branches.
work we do when calling plaintext() for the purpose of generating
material for the advanced search function.
Here again, not only were we parsing BibTeX files, since Julien's
(sensible) introduction of plaintext output for that inset, but we
were in fact writing (to disk) complete plaintext output for
included files every time we did such a search.
so we can write a limited amount when using this for TOC and
tooltip output.
This should solve the problem with slowness that Kornel noticed,
which was caused by our trying to write an entire plaintext
bibliography every time we updated the TOC. We did that because
he had a bibliography inside a branch, and we use plaintext for
creating the tooltip that goes with the branch list.
Other related bugs were fixed along the way. E.g., it turns out
that, if someone had an InsetInclude inside a branch, then we would
have been writing a *plaintext file* for that inset every time we
updated the TOC. I wonder if some of the other reports of slowness
we have received might be due to this kind of issue?
Fixes bug #7111: Assertion with undo and InsetBibitem
* add Paragraph::brokenBiblio(), with tells whether there is something to fix.
* rename Paragraph::checkBiblio to fixBiblio; simplify it greatly by using
InsetList methods
* In TextMetrics::redoParagraph, call recordUndo before fixBiblio (only when
there is something to fix obviously)
Special care is taken to update cursor only when it makes sense. Note
that there are cases where undo information is not recorded (current
cursor not in the slice where action happens)
While cppcheck did not turn out any suspicious error messages, using
the "performance" flag highlighted several nitpicks in three categories
* do not use it++ for iterators, ++it is better
* do not use size() to test for emptyness, empty() is here
* do not use "const T" as a function parameter, "const & T" is better
I doubt that any of these is a real performance problem, but the code is cleaner anyway.
Math commands need it as well as text commands. At the same time, this
further unifies the checking for termination and fixes cases of wrong
output (e.g. for 0x2005).
* do not terminate macros by {} if not necessary (prevent kerning violation)

- Interpret argument of LFUN_SPACE_INSERT correctly
- Use InsetMathSpace instead of InsetMathSpecialChar for "\ " (bug # 7728)
- Use InsetMathSpace instead of InsetMathChar for ~ (bug # 7728).
This fixes also the display in LyX (previously a literal ~ was displayed).
Using InsetMathSpace enables also the "Insert Formatting" menu entries.
No file format change is needed, since the LaTeX export is unchanged.
Note that there are still some bugs related to spaces in math:
