With Qt 5.11 at least, RtL text will be drawn RtL even when the
(undocumented) flag Qt::TextForceLeftToRight is applied to the
QTextLayout object. This creates selection issues for Hebrew text
marked as English.
The solution is to do the same as in breakAt_helper, that is prepend
the string with a direction override unicode character.
Doing this requires to introduce a TEXTLAYOUT_OFFSET constant that has
to be used wisely to account for this extra character.
Fixes bug #11284.
We used to need a hack to set the size of the layout combo, but
the code was changed in Qt 4.5 or so. Hence the appearance of this
bug in 2009. We can now just remove this hack, and all seems to
work correctly.
The filters for the layout combo and document class combo share a
problem: If you type "beam", e.g, in the latter case, then we will
show any document class that contains those letters, in that order,
but not necessarily consecutively. This is extremely confusing and,
as José put it, just weird. So let's fix it.
I'd call this a bug so would be happy to see this in stable, too.
This code has issues and there is no evidence that it improves performance.
Remove LyXRC variable \use_pixmap_cache and update rc format to 29.
Now the global pixmap cache is only used by GuiCompleter. Therefore
there is no need to reset it when fonts change.
If we were not ready to paint the screen, this does not mean that we
should give up on repainting, just potpone it.
I thought that it was bad to call update() in the paint event, but I
cannot find reference to this anymore and everything seems to work as
intended.
We do not know what to do with horizontal scrolling events, so we ignore them.
Note that the code has to be different between Qt4 and Qt5.
Fixes bug #11257.
This returns a localized version of a string (in the GUI language)
if available, removing trailing colons and accelerator marks.
This can be used to refer to dialog items in the docs in a portable way.
When searching for and item in the menu, also try to consider those that
require a BufferView (such as View/Update formats).
Also, be explicit for the default format in order to find it.
Fixes: #9851
With this commit, info insets leave the dark backstage room of an opaque
and quite hidden dev-only feature and come frontstage.
In the UI, they present themselves as "Fields" since this is what people
know from word processors. Other user-related fields that could be
implemented next: time, user name (I plan to do that for 2.4).
Since this supersedes date-insert, I removed Insert > Date from
the menu and propose to ditch date-insert and the corresponding rc.
The lyx2lyx reversion routine has lots of room for improvement and
attractive tasks for pythons (file timestamp, switch of localization).
Please feel invited!
This is a file format change.
A new UNDECIDED state is used if multiple cells with differing border
settings are selected.
This prevents additional borders to be set without being asked.
Fixes: #10010
It is a general problem when doing graphics to know where a line
begins and where it ends pixel-wise. At the instigation of Scott, and
with the use of the kmag magnifier, this commit corrects 3 areas:
* foreign marks were larger than the row element they were supposed to
mark. This could lead to moving lines, depending on paint ordering.
* visible spaces were drawn outside of their box (select a single
space to see this).
* the `L' blinking caret would leave a cursor dropping because the
horizontal part was too wide.
Minted does not have a language option but it is possible to enter
this option in the LyX interface for compatibility with the listings
package, and also for letting to enter a language not present in the
gui. So, this option is only used for properly specifying a language
in a listing, unless it is entered in the document settings dialog.
This case was not foreseen and thus the option was being passed to
the package as is, causing havoc. With this commit the option is
still available but is used to set a default language for a new
listing in place of the default "tex" language used so far.
This reuses code intended only for mac manus and generalizes it. The
list of strings to add to po files is found in
GuiTranslator::translate.
This is useful now that LyX relies on QDialogButtonBox class for its
dialogs. Indeed many languages are not covered natively by Qt.
It is possible to enable the "locace" debug channel to see what
strings are not covered and should be added to our own translation
tables.
In order to make things easier, a new method getIfFound() has been
added to the Messages class, which returns an empty string when no
translation has been found, as Qt's translate() does.
This assures the OK/Apply/Cancel/Restore buttons use the layout/style
of the OS (button order, icons).
The goal is to move all dialogs to this for 2.4.
See #11003
The goal of this patch is to make "self-insert <string>" act as a
sequence of individual self-insert calls. Once it is done, the
insertion of the commit string in GuiWorkArea can use that, which
fixes the issues described in bug 11183.
1/ in InsetMathNest, SELF_INSERT is rewritten to be a proper loop of
interpretChar, instead of inserting the string as characters. This
solves the issue of interpreting ^ properly.
2/ the text version does not need to be changed (the loop is rewritten
using a range, though).
3/ Then {{{GuiWorkArea::inputMethodEvent}}} is changed to invoke
directly self-insert. This removes the update issues.
Fixes bug 11183.
Completion uses a complicated async scheme based on timers to update
itself. This is probably not necessary anymore and is fragile to
event order changes.
This is what happens with the new painting scheme. Therefore the
asyncHideXXX() methods have to be made more robust and detect whether
completion state has changed by the time they are triggered.
This is detected when an undo group is open and contains at east one
element. This means indeed that changes are in progress. Note that the
group is in general opened in GuiApplication::dispatch. The code there
is changed to ensure that the group is closed before updating the
screen.
This patch is experimental. It is expected to be replaced in master by
a more complete solution. It could in the meantime be backported to 2.3.x.
Fixes bug #11159.
As opposed to modules (from which the framework was initially borrowed),
we only allow one cite engine per document. Thus, we don't need to fiddle
with lists.
It is now possible in the float settings (doc dialog) to specify a global
(inner) alignment for floats, and in the float settings, this can be
overridden (just as with float placement)
Fixes: #8665
File format change.
This revives a ten year old idea (and patch) by Dov.
You can now mark in the character dialog text and exclude it from spell
checking.
Fixes: #1042
File format change
Remaining issue: The instant spell checking marks are not immediately
removed, but only after some editing.
