The goal of this patch is to be able to properly remove the space
needed for markers in the case of insets that are inside macros and do
not need these markers. This was attempted at 9a9a6a8, but did not
work reliably.
To this end, the following simplifications are made:
* instead of drawing its own markers, each inset has a virtual method
marker() which prescribes either NO_MARKER, MARKER (normal bottom
marker) or MARKER2 (top and bottom marker). All explicit calls to
(draw|metrics)Markers(|2) are removed.
* the space necessary for the markers is now counted in the
before/above margins in the row structure. Therefore painting will
not happen at (x + 1, y), but just (x,y).
* the methods drawDecoration are removed.
* the helper methods InsetMath::(draw|metrics)Markers(|2) are removed
and replaced by a new function drawMarkers in MathRow.cpp.
Now the marker type is kept in the MathRow::Element object (and set to
NO_MARKER in not editable context) and the marker is accounted for in
MathRow::(metrics|draw).
Moreover, the extra pixel for the marker is taken on the before/After
space if possible. The marker will only require extra space when
before/after is 0.
See comment 168 of #8883 to understand what issues are fixed.
There is no reason to reserve pixel space in macros replacement text,
which is not editable. This makes macros more compact and eases the
writing of lib/symbols.
* introduce new InsetMath::drawMarkers and friends that do nothing
when nested inside a macro. This required to move macro_nesting
inside MetricsBase, and to pass MetricsInfo & to metricsMarkers.
* keep track of nesting when drawing rows or macros.
RefChanger temporarily assigns a value to a non-const reference of any
kind. RefChanger provides a flexible and uniform generalisation of the various
scope guards previously derived from the old Changer class in MetricsInfo.h.
As before, a temporary assignment lasts as long as the Changer object lives. But
the new Changer is movable. In particular, contorsions are no longer needed to
change a private field. Special code can be moved into the appropriate classes,
and it is no longer necessary to create a new class for each specific use.
Syntax change:
FontSetChanger dummy(mi.base, value);
-> Changer dummy = mi.base.changeFontSet(value);
New function for generating arbitrary Changers:
Changer dummy = make_change(ref, val, condition);
Bugfix:
* Fix the display of \displaystyle{\substack{\frac{xyz}{}}} (missing style
change).
Somehow I overlooked that \sideset also supports nonscript arguments for
left and right. This is now fixed, although I do not like the toolbar names.
If somebody knows something better, please improve.
The toolbar image is the one Uwe attached to the bug report. Note that
\sideset works only for operators like \sum in the nucleus. LyX allows
any content, so you might get a LaTeX error. I don't know how to prevent
wrong content in the nucleus.
