The first step is to move the MathRow cache to BufferView, alongside
coordCache. This was on the todo list anyway, since it allows to let
go the math row information when the math equation is not on the
screen anymore. With the old scheme, it would always remain in memory.
Then, when computing caret size in MathData::metrics, make sure that
the mathrow of the elements that are linearized in the MathRow object
get their caret size information initialized too.
Fixes bug #11587.
Instead of remembering the caret ascent and descent for the cell that contains the cursor, the new code remembers caret dimension for each MathRow object. This makes the code much less fragile (ans slightly smaller).
This fixes caret size issues when the Update::SinglePar flag is active.
Fixes bug #11541.
The code in 90cfe4ec3 only handled the cells which metrics are
computed directly, and missed those who were linearized inside a MathRow.
To fix this, we use the fact that all the positions in a math row have
the same height and make MathRow::metrics return a boolean indicating
whether it contains a caret for a given bufferview.
Fixes bug #11153.
The special mode used by macros where the macro name is displayed as
grey text in a box is now one of the possible marker types for any
inset. The new code puts the macro name below the text, which means
that only the text below the current line will be moved. This makes
edition much more comfortable. The grey border around the contents has
been removed too.
The marker_type enum has been moved from Inset to InsetMath. A
markerMargin() function returns the horizontal margin required on each
side for the marker. Only the corner-type markers MARKER and MARKER2
need some.
A new BOX_MARKER enum value has been added and is taken care of in
afterMetricsMarkers (renamed from metricsMarkerVertical) and
drawMarkers.
The InsetMath::marker() macro now takes a BufferView pointer as
argument, so that the marker type can depend on editing state.
MathRow::metrics now makes changes to the MathRow object when needed.
The specific metrics/draw code in MathMacro has been removed and
replaced by assertions. Code in addToMathRow and marker is adapted to
reflect the cases where linearization is possible.

The enum values BEG_MACRO/END_MACRO and BEG_AR/END_AR are replaced by a
single BEGIN/END pair.
The MathRow code now only knows about insets and math arrays.
New hooks (before|after)(Metrics|Draw) are run by the MathRow code
as needed. They are actually also used internally by the MathMacro
code.
The gain is that most traces of explicit macro handling (and
the MathRow::Element::macro member) have been removed from MathRw.cpp.
The next step will be to extend the tokenizing process to allow for
linearizing insets other than macros.
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.
The rewrite of macro_nesting done at 0f15dcc6 was faulty, in
particular since the information should be available also at draw
time. To this end, we revert the patch of the said commit that removes
macro nesting information from MathRow::Element. In the next commit,
we will change the marker code so that MathRow::draw does not need the
nesting information.
Actually the code is now cleaner since the macro nesting stack of
MathRow::metrics can be removed.
Tweak the algorithm so that a BOX math row element can have some
spacing. To this end, MathRow::before/after do not look at the type of
an element for deciding when to skip it, but rather to its math class.
In the new setting, the spacing algorithm works on all elements, but
skips the MC_UNKNOWN elements as if they were not present. As a
consequence, the two element types BEGIN and END have been replaced by
a single DUMMY (they can be recognized from their class).
To simply the code, add a new `mclass' argument to the
MathRow::Element constructor (default is MC_UNKNOWN).
Macro nesting is now recorded into the macro inset itself. This allows
the ArgumentProxy inset to determine whether it is editable or not by
looking at its macro.
Remove code in the metrics and draw methods of ArgumentProxy: this
code is AFAICS not active anymore, since arguments are linearized into
math rows.
Use Changer idiom to change locally the values of MecticsInfo::base.macro_nesting.
Empty insets should use a minimal amount of space, especially when
they are part of a built-in macro in lib/symbols.
With this change, blue rectangles signal actually editable places.
Empty macros in editable data are shown as grey boxes, but they do not
appear when further nested.
This is done by adding a new type BOX of MathRow::Element object and a
MetricsInfo::macro_nesting that keeps track of macros (and is reset to
0 in editable macro arguments).
* new MathRow class which contains the description of a MathData
object in terms of math class and spacing
+ macros and their arguments used in the MathData object are
linearized (replaced with their contents) so that all math insets
are typeset as a string together. To this end, we introduce a
method addToMathRow to InsetMath and MathData. This method allows
to linearize recursively a MathData object.
+ It is then necessary to set manually the dimension and position of
the macros and arguments.
+ the class class and spacing are computed using the MathClass helpers.
The MathRow data is cached in the MathData object in a bufferview-dependent
way (different dpi for different screens).
* delegate most of the work MathData::metrics/draw to MathRow metrics/draw.
The case of draw is trickier, since many draw() methods rely on their
metrics without any spacing added.
