Qt4 code has been identidifed by
git grep -l 'QT_VERSION.*\(0x050000\|0x04\)' src
Uses of QT_VERSION_CHECK have been checked too.
been used to remember what places need further work.
Then remaining Qt4 references have been searched using
git grep -i qt4
git grep -i 'qt 4'
and relevant issues have been either fixed or noted in the new
TODO.killqt4 file.
LyX relies on a a backing store to draw when running under macOS or
Wayland, because Qt arbitrarily overwrites parts of the workarea
before we paint (and we paint only the parts that need to be painted).
However it seems that this is also necessary on X11 when the WM theme
is translucid. Since there is no way that I know of to detect this
situation, this patch adds a LyXRC setting to manually select this
drawing strategy.
Note that using a backing store is not always a good solution, since
this disables subpixel aliasing.
At this point there is no UI for the variable.
Fixes bug #12119
To do this, hard-coded test for xcb had to be replaced with a call to
platformName(). Since this method does not exist in Qt4, we emulate
it.
Note that Qt5 uses xcb bindings for X11 system, while Qt4 relies on
older X11 bindings. We return platorm == "qt4x11" in this case.
Fixes bug #11746.
Most of the RtL icons that we provide are simply mirrors of the LtR ones.
Therefore let the code do that by default if no +rtl icon is found.
The only RtL icon left for now is for "layout Enumerate" (notice the
numbers in it).
Also remove useless getPixmap wrapper and several old bidi_xxx icons
that were forgotten in previous patch.
When the cursor in RTL text, icons for "depth-increment" or
"layout-toggle Enumerate" look wrong.
Instead of relying on the clumsy "bidi" lfun of 2898c335, this new
version relies on a new Toobar tag BidiItem that inserts an action
which can have two icons, depending on the direction of the paragraph
containing the caret (or of the direction of the UI when no file is
open).
The alternative icon has the same name as the original one, with a
"+rtl" string appended to the lfun string. The alternative icon is
only active if the file is found. The icon themes `default', `oxygen'
and `classic' have been updated accordingly.
Fixes bug #4451.
In particular, the directory frontends/qt4 is renamed to frontends/qt.
Many configurations file have to be updated. All mentions of qt4 in
the source have been audited, and changed to qt if necessary.
The only part that has not been updated is the CMake build system.
