In some cases, the insets may change height or width without changing
the other apsects of the row.
Fixes bug #6991 and #10182.
(cherry picked from commit 508518ad95)
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.
(cherry picked from commit 8851645799ef67015e49fd75b9dfeed65d685e85)
While a one paragraph large collapsable inset (containing for example a tabular) could be very wide and trigger horizontal scrolling, the code that makes collapsable insets wide when they contain several paragraphs would actually make them narrower in this case.
Typical example is a wide tabular and a caption in a table float, where horizontal scrolling would not trigger.
(cherry picked from commit a879bc2575)
There are two regressions that are fixed here:
* empty rows at the end of a paragraph (think after newline at end of
paragraph or empty line in Verbatim) do not have an end-of-par
marker. This is fixed by removing the early return in breakRow and
letting the whole function be executed. This requires to relax an
assertion in Paragraph::fontSpan. It makes sense here to query
position at the end of the paragraph.
* a newline at the end of a paragraph will be followed by and
end-of-par marker. This is fixed by skipping the end-of-par marker
when a new row has been requested.
When a row is broken by for example a display math inset, it is
possible to put the cursor at the end of the previous line using the
boundary setting of cursor.
For newline insets and separator insets, we want to force the cursor
to be before this inset. Also, in the other cases, do not force
boundary property (effectively reverts part of f29e7803).
* breakRow: remove wrong condition that would silently eat the contents of the
paragraph when the window is narrower than left margin
* breakRow: make sure that there is at least one element in each row
* breakAt: when force-breaking a row element, make sure it is not empty. Doing
so may create empty rows and therefore a endless loop.
Fixes bugs #9962 and #10001.
This is a fixup to commit cdb9f043, which fixed bug #9757.
It is necessary to make a special case for inserting an InsetCaption
in a tabular cell, because this commonly happens in longtable mode.
Fixes bug #9945.
The active/inactive status of hfills was not checked in numberOfHFills.
The code is reorganized a bit, but the important part is the change in the above function.
Part of bug #9870.
The computation of the legth of expanded hfills did not take into account their unexpanded size. This is done now by increasing the dimension (+=) instead of merely setting it.
Moreover, since the insets sizes are integer number, rounding effects have to be taken in account. To this end, the extra number of pixels is added to the last hfill in the row.
This fixes part of bug #9860.
Note not everything is fixed by this patch: the logic of ParagraphMetrics::hfillExpansion seems bogus to me. I do not see why consecutive hfills at the beginning of a row should not be all expanded. Since I do not know what are the peculiarities of hfill handling in LaTeX, I did not change it (yet).
I did not either try to investigate the label hfill part, because I do not even know what is so special about it. I think there is a lot of old logic that nobody ever tried to question.
This is done by implementing contentAlignment() for this inset.
In order to display properly 'stretch' alignment, the code for TextMetrics::getAlign is rewritten to include some code that was in computeRowMetrics.
In computeRowMetrics, the right margin of the row shall be taken in account when the text is not left-aligned. Rewrite the code in terms of the available width `w' to avoid this pitfall.
We already have a CoordCache of insets dimensions. It is not necessary
to store the same information in two places.
Give a name to CoordCache tables types to improve code readability.
Remove ParagraphMetrics::singleWidth, which is not used anymore.
Previously, if one clicked onto a large non-editable inset like the new LyX
logo inset, the cursor was always positioned in front of the inset, even if
the click was almost at the back edge. Now the cursor is positioned at the
correct edge. I tested this also with RTL contents, where from means right
and back means left, but the inset anchor position anchor point is still
at the left, and the right edge is dim.wid pixels to the right of it.
This was a regression from 2.1.x. I failed to copy the horrible hack that was present for the special case of () in Hebrew.
There is a real need for someone who understands RTL language stuff to fix this. Currently () are wrong in .lyx files IMO. We should not have to swap them for display.
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.
In breakRow set left and right margin properly for RTL paragraphs.
Remove corresponding code from ComputeRowMetrics.
In row painter, check the use of left and right margin depending on
context. The problem in the original text is that the various
leftMargin() methods actually represent right margin for RTL
paragraphs. This should be fixed eventually.
The document iterator now skips math insets and insets like notes where spell check is disabled.
The continuous spell checking is part of the row painter drawing and the spell check disabled state
has to be passed down recursively while doing the inset painting.
* Remove the UndoKind parameter in the general interface
* move recordUndoInset to Cursor
* remove one variant of Undo::recordUndo.
* get rid of Text::recUndo.
The computation of length on screen depend in particular of the computation of the size of an em. Many places of the code used to rely on the width of the M character, which is not really correct:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Em_%28typography%29
In digital typography, the best value to use is the point size of the font.
* Implement FontMetrics::em(), which returns the value in pixels of the EM unit.
Convert code to use it.
* Introduce Length::inPixel(MetricsBase const &), which takes the textwidth and em information from the MetricsBase object. Convert code to use it.
* Fix several places where Length::inPixel is used without a proper em value.
* add mathed_font_em() helper function. It should eventually be removed like some other functions in MathSupport.
* Add dummy implementation of FontMetrics to tex2lyx for linking purposes.
There are several places in the code where a row is painted with drawing disabled in the painter. The goal is only to recompute inset positions.
Such a case happens in BufferView::checkCursorScrollOffset, as part of the horizontal scrolling patch. Note that this particular piece of code should eventually be removed, since it is a performance problem.
It makes sense to consider that only a real painting of a row should change its status. However, I would not be surprised if this change would break other things.
Fixes: #9388

This implement horizontal scrolling of rows to allow editing insets
(math, tabular...) that are larger then the screen. The scrolling happens
as the cursor moves, in order to make sure that the cursor is always visible.
This effectively closes an 11 years old bug.
This feature is the result of the work of Hashini Senaratne as part of
Google Summer of Code 2013. The code has been cleaned-up for inclusion
and remaining bugs have been fixed.
Fixes bug: #1083.
* When doing a redraw with drawing disabled (to set inset positions properly), take horizontal scroll offset in account
* reset horizontal scroll offset when it is smaller than the left margin.
* when drawing a paragraph, do not modify x globally, only for the row that is offset.
[This commit is the output of the "horizontal scrolling" GSoC 2013
project, by Hashini Senaratne. The code has been cleaned up, some
variables have been renamed and moved from the Cursor class to
BufferView::Private. This is the base from which I (jmarc) will polish
the feature for landing on master.
Below is the original commit log of Hashini, updated to reflect the
changes that have been done.]
This feature also applicable for other insets; graphics and labels.
This implementation is capable of scrolling a single row when reaching
its content which is beyond the screen limits, using left and right
arrow keys.
The attribute 'horiz_scroll_offset_' introduced in the
BufferView::Private class plays a main role in horizontal scrolling of
the wide rows that grow beyond the screen limits. This attribute
represents by how much pixels the current row that the text cursor
lies in should be get scrolled.
The main logic that is responsible for drawing the scrolled rows is
within the BufferView class, BufferView::checkCursorScrollOffset.
* The main logic is called via BufferView::draw.
* What this does is set the horiz_scroll_offset_ attribute in in order to
show the position that the text cursor lies in.
* To make sure that BufferView::draw gets involved when Update flag is
FitCursor, necessary changes are made in BufferView::processUpdateFlags.
Basically what the logic that used to set the horiz_scroll_offset_
does is,
* The row which the text cursor lies in is identified by a
CursorSlice that points to the beginning of the row. This is the
'rowSlice' variable used in BufferView::checkCursorScrollOffset. Acessors
are added to obtain this variable. Here row objects were not used to
identify the current row, because it appears that row objects can
disappear when doing a decoration update for example. This means that
comparing row pointers is not a good idea, because they can change
without notice.
* Stop calculations of horiz_scroll_offset_ variable, if metrics have not been
computed yet. Otherwise the calls to TextMetrics::parMetrics, calls
redoParagraph and may change the row heigths. Therefore vertical scrolling
feature may get disturbed. This is avoided.
* Using BufferView::::setCurrentRowSlice resets horiz_scroll_offset_
when changing cursor row. This is done in order to prevent unwanted
scrolling that happens when changing the selected row using up and
down arrow keys.
* Recompute inset positions before checking scoll offset of the row, by
painting the row insets with drawing disabled. This is done because the
position of insets is computed within the drawing procedure.
* Current x position of the text cursor is compared with the
horiz_scroll_offset_ value and the other variables like row.width(),
bv.workWidth(). Compute the new horiz_scroll_offset_ value in order
to show where the text cursor lies in. The basics conditions that we
check before recomputing it are, if the text cursor lies rightward to
the current right screen boundary, if the text cursor lies leftward
to the current left screen boundary, if the text cursor lies within
screen boundaries but the length of the row is less than the left
boundary of the screen (this happens when we delete some content of
the row using delete key or backspace key).
* Change update strategy when scrooll offset has changed. This allows to
redraw the row when no drawing was scheduled. By doing so, it was
possible to redraw a wide row when moving to the leftmost position of the
wide row, from the leftmost position of the row below, using the left
arrow key.
In TextMetrics::drawParagraph it is checked whether the current row is
what is drawing now. If it is so, the value used to the x value of the row
for drawing is adapted according to BufferView::horizScrollOffset.
The method used to pass boundary() was fixed to get row when cursor was in
a nested inset. This matter is considered in Cursor::textRow and it is
modified accordingly.
GuiWorkArea::Private::showCursor() is modified to show the cursor position
in a scrolled row.
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.
