If pdftocairo is detected, it is used for generating bitmaps in the
legacy method route in preference to ghostscript. This is justified
by the fact that the conversion is 4 to 5 times faster and the
quality of the generated images is superior.
When the dvipng route is selected and latex fails, the lyxpreview2bitmap.py
script simply bails out. The failure may be due to using a specific pdf
only feature in ERT (for example, the inclusion of a pdf image).
In this case the procedure may succeed simply trying to use pdflatex
and the legacy conversion method.
Note that I move the definition of cur up because we need to check if
it changed before the return. I also removed the const because
notifyCursorLeavesOrEnters() requires that.
This commit probably fixes other issues for any inset that defines
notifyCursorLeaves().
This fixes only part of #6173.
The reason we want to do this is for if there is pasting across buffers.
For within buffer, the previews should already be updated. Calling the
buffer-wide updatePreviews() might seem like overkill, but actually it
should be quick because only the previews that need updating are updated
(and this check feels quick to me, although I did not profile).
If we were to loop through the pasted text and update each preview
individually, this might take more time. When updating previews
together, only one .tex file is compiled.
Normally the theBufferList().updatePreviews(); statement would go inside
of PrefDisplay::applyRC. However, that would not work well because
Buffer::updatePreviews() calls loader() which conditions on
(lyxrc.preview == LyXRC::PREVIEW_OFF) but the new RC has not been set at
this point.
When editing a preview inset, or math, when we leave the inset, we
should update the preview. This update now happens for screen-up and
screen-down (commonly bound to Page Up and Page Down).
Note that this is only relevant if preview is turned on in
preferences.
This commit probably fixes other issues for any inset that defines
notifyCursorLeaves().
This fixes only part of #6173.
The bug that caused these tests to enter into infinite loops
(and have a memory leak) has been fixed. These tests now
pass on an updated TeX Live 2014 as well as the current TeX
Live 2015 pretest.
