This defines a new behaviour for Ctrl[+Shift]+Arrow in math:
* Left/Right does not enter insets
* Left/Right jump groups of insets that have the same math class ("words")
* Enable Up/Down for consistency.
This helper method is used to set the inset position cache at drawing
time. However this is already done by the drawing code itself
(MathRow::draw, RowPainter::paintInset), so that there is no need to
do this same work again in a different place.
Note that the inset positions are still set in InsetTabular::draw for
each cell.
This commit comes with a mild risk attached (it might be that some of
these calls were useful after all!), but all of this is fixable.
It should be now possible underlining or striking out any kind
of math inset containing any math construct indigestible to ulem.
While this was already possible for inline math insets, they could
have break if an aligned environment was used, for example.
This is now possible also for diplay math. Even if this can be
nonsensical and not visually perfect, at least no latex errors
should be generated if one tries to.
Showing deleted display math by enabling "Show Changes in Output" was
only possible with dvi (through dvipost). Although LyX strikes out
such formulas on screen, it was impossible obtaining an output
directly using pdflatex (or other engines producing pdf) because
ulem cannot cope with display math material and gives errors.
The solution is to strike out by ourselves such deleted formulas.
I took into account several options. One of them would produce
an output similar to dvipost (which strikes out each element), but
would have required much more changes in the output routines.
Eventually, I opted for using tikz, which gives a more clean
output (as it requires to simply adding a preamble and a postamble
to the latex code of any displayed math, instead of a mark up
tailored to each particular math construct). The look of the pdf
output is similar to the way LyX strikes out the equations on screen.
The main thing it does is integrate mouse-modifiers into the
FuncRequest machinery. Previously, these had to be passed
separately, which led to some ugly function signatures.
There was also an unnecessary form of the constructor, which
can now be removed.
No change of behavior is intended.
The only exceptions are:
- The purpose of the header is to drag in the used symbol, e.g. unique_ptr.h
- The used symbol is inside a class or a namespace other than lyx
The reason for this is that global 'using' statements effectively forbid to
use the used symbols in any other namespace in the whole program, since simply
adding or removing an #include of the corresponding header subtly changes the
name lookup. The namespace lyx is sort of global, so it should not have these
statements either.
Replace the manual manipulation of a stack of RowEntries with a Changer
function. When I introduced the stack of RowEntries, I did not know about the
Changer mechanism.
The old name would be confusing wrt setSelection(), which does additional checks.
This one is a pure acessor, and the more complete methods are
* setSelection(), which avoids empty selections
* clearSelection(), which resets anchor, and sets word selection and mark more to false.
Most of the code should use these two instead of selection(bool), but this is for later.
WriteStream is now built from an otexstream instead of an odocstream, and
therefore counts lines in a TexRow. Calls to TexRow are added in relevant places
in math insets.
This finishes adding line tracking for math in the source panel and for forward
search.
The functions reverseDirectionNeeded() and reverseDirectionNeeded() do
not rely on the Bidi class. The first one is changed into a Cursor
method, and the second one is replaced with explicit code.
We have some math macros that exist only because LyX can display them easily,
but which require user preamble code. These commands should not appear in
autocompletion, they are only there to make the formulas of users who actually
need thgese symbols and know what to put into the preamble more beautiful.
The math icons for the symbol image in the math completer were hardcoded to the
command names. This is wrong for some icons for various reasons, e.g. the case
insensitivity of windows file systems. Therefore we have to use the replacement
list which is also used for the toolbar icons. Bug #3538 is not closed because
of this problem, but IMHO it has nothing to do with this bug, it is a more
general one.
The problem was that the conversion to plain text (which is used as an
intermediate step) requires for some insets a valid buffer pointer, but
insets in the cut stack do not have one. Now we use the same temp buffer
business as for copying to the external clipboard.
There are 3 possible actions (in order)
* select current cell
* select all calls of inset
* select the inset from outside (in the containing inset)
This fixes completely #7727.
* remove unused class TexStream.
* remove unused virtual method Inset::cellXOffset
* remove second argument of FileDialog constructor, which was actually
not used
* remove some dead local code
* remove some unused private members of classes
* in InsetMathNest::updateBuffer, fix the logic of a test
Now interactive insertion of \smash[t] and \smash[b] is possible again.
\smash with optional argument behaves now exactly as in LyX 2.0.x, and without
optional argument it is supported by InsetMathPhantom.
each failure.
There are several places I was not sure what to do. These are marked
by comments beginning "LASSERT:" so they can be found easily. At the
moment, they are at:
Author.cpp:105: // LASSERT: What should we do here?
Author.cpp:121: // LASSERT: What should we do here?
Buffer.cpp:4525: // LASSERT: Is it safe to continue here, or should we just return?
Cursor.cpp:345: // LASSERT: Is it safe to continue here, or should we return?
Cursor.cpp:403: // LASSERT: Is it safe to continue here, or should we return?
Cursor.cpp:1143: // LASSERT: There have been several bugs around this code, that seem
CursorSlice.cpp:83: // LASSERT: This should only ever be called from an InsetMath.
CursorSlice.cpp:92: // LASSERT: This should only ever be called from an InsetMath.
LayoutFile.cpp:303: // LASSERT: Why would this fail?
Text.cpp:995: // LASSERT: Is it safe to continue here?
As discussed on the list. No automatic contents detection is done, the user
needs to use the special paste menu instead. I used the new TempFile class
for safe temporary file handling.
The documentation would go into section 2.2 of UserGuide.lyx, but I am not
allowed to edit that document.
The fix is basically mechanical, the additional code for fraction like insets
with three arguments was stolen from \unitfrac. As any math package,
stackrel.sty needs a buffer parameter to switch it off.
I also added the two stackrel flavours to the toolbar.
While cppcheck did not turn out any suspicious error messages, using
the "performance" flag highlighted several nitpicks in three categories
* do not use it++ for iterators, ++it is better
* do not use size() to test for emptyness, empty() is here
* do not use "const T" as a function parameter, "const & T" is better
I doubt that any of these is a real performance problem, but the code is cleaner anyway.
* Avoid undo step when using backspace in macro mode
* Use recordUndoInset when entering macro mode (if one enters something like \hline, the outer inset itself will be modified)
* Use recordUndoInset when pasting in an INsetMathGrid (same reason as above)
