When it turns out that breaking a STRING row element was not
sufficient in Row::shortenIfNeeded, we still remember the shortest
width that one can obtain. Later, when we try to split a previous
element of the row, we have a better idea of how much of the row
remains after it.
To this end, change the signature of Element::splitAt to use an enum:
FIT (was: force=false), FORCE (was: force= true) and BEST_EFFORT
(split at max_width, but do not return an error if the string is too
large).
Fixes bug #12660.
It is not a good idea to contruct a QChar from a char_type that is
really 32bits.
Use lyx::isSpace, which already catters for this case.
Since this code does not depend on qt anymore, move it to
support::countExpanders.
Get rid of Row::countSeparators, which is not used anymore.
Fixes bug #12519.
The spacing of Labeling, Description and friends shall be computed
when breaking the row, not when tokenizing it. Indeed, this is the
right place to determine its correct value.
To this end add a new MARGINSPACE row element type.
This allows to remove TextMetrics::labelEnd, which is not used anymore.
When a string is broken at the margin by the Qt algorithm, the space
at which breaking occurred is automatically skipped in width
computation. However, the ending space of the string is taken into
account and is visible for example at paragraph end.
When the trailing space is followed by a displayed inset, then the
space should be skipped too, which means that the width of the last
row element has to be recomputed. For the sake of performance, the
width of the element without trailing spaces is computed in advance in
FontMetrics::breakString.
This "no space" width will be used when trimming a row element of its trailing
spaces instead of the original one.
Additionally, do not trim trailing spaces when the row is flushed.
Fixes bug #12449.
Replace FontMetrics::breakAt, which returned the next break point,
with FontMetrics::breakString, which returns a vector of break points.
To this end, an additional parameter gives the available width for
next rows.
Rename various variables and methods accordingly. Factor the code in
breakString_helper to be more manageable.
Adapt Row::Element::splitAt to return a bool on sucess and provide
remaining row elements in a vector. The width noted above has been
added as parameters.
Rename the helper function splitFrom to moveElements and rewrite the
code to be more efficient.
Remove type of row element INVALID, which is not needed anymore.
The code in TextMetrics::breakParagraph is now much simpler.
In Row::finalize, remove the code that computed inconditionnally the
current element size, and make sure that this width will be computed
in all code paths of Row::Element::splitAt.
Move to Row::Element::rtrim the code in Row::shortenIfNeeded that
removes trailing spaces from last element in row, so that it can be
called when actually breaking a row.
Fixes bug found by Kornel.
Change semantics of Row::shortenIfNeeded: instead of breaking the row
and returning a boolean, it returns the list of row elements that have
been removed (or broken) from the row. The logic of the method remains
the same.
Use shortenIfNeeded in breakParagraph. This was the last missing block.
Remove Row::breakAt and the old breakRow. Only bugs remain now :)
Move the enum definition RowFlags in its own include file, to avoid
loading Inset.h. Document it more thoroughly.
Rename RowAfter to AlwaysBreakAfter.
Add CanBreakInside (rows that can be themselves broken). This allow to
differentiate elements before bodyPos() and allows to remove a
parameter to shortenIfNeeded().
Make the Inset::rowFlags() method return int instead of RowFlags, as
should be done for all the bitwise flags. Remove the hand-made bitwise
operators.
Set R::E::row_flags when creating elements.
* INSET elements use the inset's rowFLags();
* virtual element forbid breaking before them, and inherit the *After
flags from the previous element of the row;
* STRING elements usr CanBreakInside, except before bodyPos.
More stuff may be added later.
Move declaration of RowList to Row.h
Move initialization of POD members of Row and Row::Element to declaration.
Make method isVirtual() depend on type.
Add new row element type INVALID and method isValid()
Make methods R::E::left/right_pos inline.
Add method R::E::splitAt() that returns an element containing the
remaining stuff, or an invalid element if nothing was split. breakAt
is now a simple wrapper around this function.
Add method R::push_back().
Introduce a new Row::contents_dim(), which height is restricted to the
row contents and does not contain any extra vertical spacing.
Rely on this for painting selections: if the selection starts on row,
for example, the ascent of the contents dim is considered. If ot was
started above, then the full dim is used.
Fixes bug #3899.
The 20px space on top and bottom of document have traditionally been
obtained by adding the to the ascent/descent of the first/last row.
This reads to annoyances like selections that are drawn in these
margins and issues with the nesting marker.
The change is to add the values to a separate member of the Row
object, and to add new Row::total(Ascent|Descent) methods that add the
effect of this padding.
Moreover, some methods are added to TextMetrics to simplify the
BufferView code.
Fixes bug #9545.
This is preliminary work, this code still feels too complicated for
its own good.
Let Row::isMarginSelected return false when Row::selection() is false
(the other changes are indentation).
This allows to remove the test for selection() in
setSelectionAndMargins, so that begin/end_margin_sel are always set
correctly.
Add clearSelectionAndMargins() instead of calling directly setSelection
(which is now private) with arguments (-1, -1).
Fixes bug #10972.
The bug is the following: when selecting several paragraphs quickly
enough, some rows do not get selected.This is a consequence of the
removal of row crc, which lead to not taking into account the
selection status of the row in the decision to repaint.
The solution chosen here is to add a Row::change() helper function to
modify row members. This will set the Row changed status whenever the
value of the member changes.
This computation did not make sense anymore since we began to put the
contents in the Row object. The fact that it worked was a coincidence.
Instead, we set rows as changed() on creation and reset that once they
have been drawn. This will allow in the future for a finer definition
of what to redraw or not.
Also update the PAINTING_ANALYSIS document
It is wrong to compute this at paint time. In general, painting a row
should not require any access to a paragraph object, but we are far
from there now.
This allows to somewhat simplify the text and avoid some uses of
Paragraph (in the long term, RowPainter should not have to access
these things).
At the same time do a small cleanup to RowPainter: rename
text_metrics_ to tm_, remove pm_ and width_.
When using Qt stuff in breakAt, it may happen that the row is broken
after an hyphen (whereas the old code would only consider spaces).
The fact that we abuse the Row::right_boundary() property to detect when
a row should be flushed broke justification when a row is cut at an
hyphen.
Fix this by introducing a new Row::flushed() property and set it as needed.
The code that tries to decide whether it is worth splitting a given
text row element had a shortcoming: it did not take into account the
left margin of the new row that would be created.
The problem is that this left margin is not the same as the left
margin of the current row, because there can be for example
indentation effects.
To fix this problem, we pass the amount of available space on the
next row as a parameter of Row::shortenIfNeeded.
Note that there is no need to care about RtL row elements at this
point, since the bidi algorithm will be applied to the row
subsequently.
1) Distinguish expanding characters from separators, to fit with Qt's notion of
expanding character which comes from the Unicode std. CountExpanders() is moved
to FontMetrics to fix a discrepancy with the duplicate implementation from
598f7e4a.
2) Make these expanders stretch on-screen proportionally to the em of the font.
If a row mixes large and small text, LyX let us see which spaces are set in the
bigger font.
3) Now that the stretch is defined in ems, add a limit such that an expander
never stretches more than 1.5em to avoid weird and hard to read justified lines.
4) Add a return boolean to setSeparatorExtraWidth for future use.
Change the various paint* helpers to take a single row element as argument.
Do not update x_ in the various paint* helpers. Constify them. Update x_ in paintText and paintOnlyInsets instead.
Remove an empty call to paintForeignMark in paintInset (the call did nothing since orig_x == x_ at this point).
If we do not do that, it is not possible to position the cursor after
a long inset with the mouse.
To do this, it is necessary to add the pit information to the Row
object. This is a good idea in any case, and will allow to simplify
some code later on.
Fixes bug #10094.
New method TextMetrics::findRowElement, excerpted from CursorX.
Reimplement getSurroundingPos using Row information. This is easy when
the cursor is inside a row element. At row element edges, different
situations can occur; hopefully all these situations are taken into
account.
Rename the old getSurroundingPos to getSurroundingPosOrig and
transform getSurroundingPos into a wrapper that compares the two
methods. This will be removed when we are confident that the new
function is equivalent to the old one.
It will then be possible to remove also the Bidi class (at last!).
* GuiFontMetrics::pos2x, x2pos: add support for inter-word spacing.
* GuiPainter::text: idem
* Row::Element::countSeparators:
Row::countSeparators: new methods that count spaces in strings.
Row::setSeparatorExtraWidth: new method (code lifted from TextMetrics.cpp).
* TextMetrics::computeRowMetrics: rely on the above methods.
* RowPainter::paintMispelledMarked: pass only a Row::Element object reference
RowPainter::paintStringAndSel: idem; do not rely on values returned by
Painter::text (trailing spaces do not honor wordspacing value).
The goal of this commit is to make painting faster by reducing the
number of strings to paint. To this end, it is necessary to include
spaces in row elements.
Also importantly, this commit should fix existing problems with line
breaking in chinese text.
* TextMetrics::breakRow: do not do anything special for word separators.
* Row::add: when adding a character to a row element, keep the string
width updated. If need be, it is possible to tweak this by updating
every 10 characters, for example.
* GuiFontMetrics::breakAt (new): use QTextLayout to break text either
at word boundary or at an arbitrary width.
* Row::Element::breakAt: use the above method.
* Row::shortenIfNeeded: simplify now that because there is no need for
handling separator elements. This will be taken care of by the
improved breakAt.
Two things remain to be done:
* remove all traces of separator row element
* re-implement text justification.
All the code that is run before row metrics have been computed should use int arithmetic. After metrics have been computed, we still need doubles because fully justified rows use double for Row::Element::extra.
Rename Row::x to Row::left_margin and change its type to int.
Rename Row::Element::width() to full_width(). In some places of the code, use dim.wid (the int version without the extra separator) because metrics have not been computed.
Let Row::Element::x2pos take a int& argument instead of double&
Let Row::Element::breakAt take a int argument instead of double
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.
Moreover, breaks row at insets when there is no suitable separator.
Also make the code of Row::shorten_if_needed somewhat simpler by using
iterators and factoring the code.
Fixes: #9120
The old implementation of Row::Element::pos2x and x2pos did not work
correctly with Arabic text, because characters can have shapes that
depend on context.
This new implementation leverages QTextLayout in a simplified way,
since only one word is added to the layout.
This allows to make Row::Element::x2pos more readable.
Fixes: #9115.
All these problems are related to what happens at the extreme points of rows
* since VIRTUAL elements have a width but no contents, they have to
be treated specially at some places. It would have been better to
avoid testing for them explicitly, but I did not find a way.
* Improve and cleanup the code in breakRow and fix in passing a crash
when clicking on the right of an incomplete MARGIN_MANUAL
paragraph.
* improve the computation of row width in TextMetrics::computeRowMetrics.
* handle properly the case where a position if not found on the row
in both cursorX and getPosNearX (actually, this happens when
selecting).
* Some code cleanup and comments.
