Use the function support:truncateWithEllipsis() to shorten a docstring with
... at the end. Actually we use U+2026 HORIZONTAL ELLIPSIS instead of "..." when
automatically shortening strings. This is to be consistent with Qt's own
truncation and is much nicer on the screen.
This includes the bugs #9575 and #9572 regarding broken text elision in the
outliner.
Known issues (non-regressions):
* TocBackend::updateItem() should be rewritten to update all TOCs. (#8386)
* "..." should be replaced with … everywhere else on the interface (including
translation strings).
* We should prefer to rely on QFontMetrics::elidedText() to truncate strings
with an ellipsis whenever possible, or an equivalent for the buffer view
dependent on the font metrics. See the warning in src/support/lstrings.h.
* TexRow now computes rows from a DocIterator. In practice, the cursor
highlighting is now correct inside insets, it is no longer restricted to the
topmost level. It certainly also makes forward-search more precise.
* Added the option to disable a texrow when not needed, for perf.
* Fixed a bug where the last paragraph was not properly highlighted.
Limitations:
* TexRow still does not handle: math (e.g. multi-cell), sub-captions, inset
arguments.
* New TOC "math-macro". This means that math macros can now be accessed in the
outline pane in their order of appearance or in alphabetical order, and can be
searched using the filter.
* Lists of floats now show subfloats deeper in the navigation menu
* The arbitrary 30 element cut-off after which nothing is shown except "Open
Navigator..." is removed. Menus now have no limit in size, so Qt may display
them scrollable. In exchange, we always show "Open outliner..." at the
beginning. I tested for performance issues with a rather complex document and
it is fine; but this does not exclude corner cases with lots of TOC entries of
a certain kind. If necessary, populating the navigation sub-menu should be
delayed like the main menu.
* Elements that do not contribute to the output (e.g. in a note, a disabled
branch) are now preceded with a symbol indicating this status. (The machinery
was already there; I wonder why it was not implemented already.) I have chosen
U+274E NEGATIVE SQUARED CROSS MARK.
* Fix the contextual menus in the outliner (bug introduced at 94e992c5).
* Toc item now move to the caption when present, but first center on the float,
to prevent the situation where the caption is at the top of the screen and the
contents of the float is off-screen above the caption.
(Internally, the action of the toc items can now be customised)
* Fix the LyXHTML output. Disabled captions no longer appear in the list of
figures.
There are still a few warnings of the kind
(style) Variable 'x' is assigned a value that is never used.
since I did not touch code where I was not sure whether there might be a real
bug, and I kept some for symmetry reasons as well.
This fixes cppcheck warnings (style) 'class x' does not have a copy constructor
which is recommended since the class contains a pointer to allocated memory.
These were all flagged by "(style) The scope of the variable 'x' can be reduced."
Narowing the scope improves readability, and if it is in a loop then the
compiler will be clever enough to produce efficient code, we do not need
manual optimization for POD types.
This generalises the new use of TocBuilder (97e8101) to listings and wraps and
removes some duplicate code.
Make sure that we will never write an empty float type again in the future
(#9760)
We introduce TocBuilder for building TOCs that take into account both float
insets and their captions.
* Floats without caption are shown with their content.
* Floats with a caption are shown with their caption, but clicking the entry now
correctly moves to the float and not to the caption.
* Subsequent captions produce additional entries in the TOC.
* Figures and subfigures are correctly ordered in the outliner.
* New TOC "senseless" for captions appearing alone (a bit like broken references
are still displayed in the menu and outliner).
* Disable LFUN_CAPTION_INSERT if there is already a caption in a listing
Known issues:
* Inconsistent output for includes located inside floats
* We should record the end of the float in addition of the beginning for a more
accurate cursor -> outliner entry conversion
These were all found by cppcheck. Even in constructors that are there "only
because of std containers" the class should be initialized correctly. You can
never know whether such an object does not get used, and then a nice crash
caused by dereferencing a NULL-pointer is better than undefined behaviour.
Fix bugs #6501 and #7359.
* Selection highlighting has been broken since a conflict with
reverse-search was repaired (at 00a62b7c), is now fixed.
* The selection highlighting was not accurate, for LaTeX formats (in
full source view), and meaningless, for non LaTeX formats.
* fix regression at cc00b9aa: force_getcontent_ was always true
therefore the code to detect changes in the generated source was
dead. The consequence is that the source view would jump to the
beginning at each updateView() even if no change occurred. Cc00b9aa
was meant to fix#5600, which I cannot reproduce with the new
implementation.
* Various improvements:
* When the position-to-line conversion is unavailable (LyXHTML, LyX
source, etc.) we focus on the first difference instead.
* Get some space around the cursor
* Respect the scrollbars
* Highlight with QTextEdit::ExtraSelections instead of cursor
selection (the latter used to break syntax highlighting of the
TeX code... which was not so much of an issue before because the
wrong part was selected)
Known issues:
* The highlighting is off by one line in very last paragraph of a
document. This appears to be a bug in TexRow.cpp.
* The highlighting is off for any kind of inset. This could be
solved by adapting TexRow so that it accepts CursorSlices as
and argument for the conversion to line number. (this is bug
#4725)
Fix bug #9493. The source panel was very slow with auto-update on. Now
we use a timer that ensures that the source is generated only at
rest. The delay is short or long depending on whether we show the
source of a paragraph or the whole source.
* 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.
When adding units to the external inset bounding box I overlooked that
InsetGraphics supports only bb, cm, mm and in. Therefore I added too many
units for the external insets. We are not as strict as the graphics inset
and allow all absolute units, but no relative ones.
This brings the external inset on par with the graphics insets as far as the
clipping option is concerned. The graphicxs package supports both: A bounding
box without units (which means that bp ia assumed), and a bounding box with
units, so we can simply output the values including the units.
Being able to compile document with zipped .eps files was a useful feature of
the graphicxs package 20 years ago, but the LyX support is no longer relevant:
- The flag is ignored if preview is on
- If pdflatex is used then uncompressing happens during the compilation anyway
- If set, the flag prevents LyX from issuing proper error messages if
something with the image is wrong
- For hard disk capacities from 20 years ago not uncompressing is a useful
feature, but for current hard disk capacities it does not matter
- The external inset does not have it, and if we want to merge both insets
one day we would need to implement it there, which is even more difficult
than in InsetGraphics
Since commit 7ac70092, lyx::dispatch returns a DispatchResult const &,
which is ignored in the cases below. Nevertheless, the windows
compiler complains that it does not know this type. Gcc and clang can
deal with it without problem.
Now the minibuffer toolbar is "auto" by default. It is opened by
command-execute (M-x) and closed when the command is executed without error.
* make lyx::dispatch return a DispatchResult struct
* there is a new MINIBUFFER type of toolbar, that can be used for this use.
* remove special handling of M-x in minnibuffer; Escape can be used instead. Fix focus in this case.
* when minibuffer toolbar is "auto", make the toolbar close itself after
- a command has been executed without error
- an empty command has been executed
- the Escape key has been used
[this is actually commit fdcff02a, which was later reverted at dd61d8cf]
There is a second solution in the code which uses some undocumented Qt
stuff, but it does not work in some cases. The best is to rely on the
documented way.
There is no need for real-valued line width in painters. Actually, this even leads to uneven dashes for continuous spell checker.
The new code is supposed to be equivalent to the old one, just more readable. From this, we can try to see whether some lines need to be made thicker on HiDPI screens.
This effectively makes the horizontal size policy "minimum", which
makes it clear that there is no advantage for this widget of
increasing the horizontal size past the minimum, allowing other
GUI elements to use the horizontal space if useful.
This change for caseCB is consistent with wordsCB and searchbackCB.
Now the minibuffer toolbar is "auto" by default. It is opened by
command-execute (M-x) and closed when the command is executed without error.
* make lyx::dispatch return a DispatchResult struct
* there is a new MINIBUFFER type of toolbar, that can be used for this use.
* remove special handling of M-x in minnibuffer; Escape can be used instead. Fix focus in this case.
* when minibuffer toolbar is "auto", make the toolbar close itself after
- a command has been executed without error
- an empty command has been executed
- the Escape key has been used
The horizontal size policy is now set to "MinimumExpanding", which
means that sizeHint() is enforced as a minimum, but that the widget
can make use of extra available space.
Before, the size policy was ignored, and often resulted in a
scrunched pane that had to have its size manually increased.
The symptom of the bug is that the preference could be incorrectly
displayed (based on the value of the statusbar preference).
This seems to have been a copy/paste mistake introduced in 214f7ed2.
