Previews are now generated when previews are turned on in
preferences. This change ensures that when users activate previews
for the first time, they are not confused by no previews showing up
(a restart of LyX or a triggering of each individual preview would
be required).
There was a previously attempted fix for #9507 at 390ae054 which was
reverted at 358745d0 for performance reasons: it updated previews
after every preference change and updating previews is costly (even
if the cache signals there are no changes needed).
This implementation is consistent with what we do for updating the
system fonts in preferences.
The referenced commit lead to performance issues and possibly
crashes in some cases when saving preferences. Thanks to Guillaume
for discovering the issues. See #9828 for more discussion.
I hope to come up with a better fix for #9507.
This reverts commit 390ae05444.
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.
A new preference is introduced for allowing the record of the document
directory path in the saved file. Without explicit consent, it is not saved.
If the origin tag contains an invalid/wrong path or garbage, LyX behaves
exactly as before, i.e., included files are simply not found.
Add a new tag HasGuiSupport to language file. Add it for all l10ns
that we currently ship. The po files that are unused are not currently
tagged as available, but this could be done, since the code later
checks that the translation is actually there.
This new information is used in GuiPrefs when populating the language
combox.
The new scheme implies that adding a new language is now a two-step
process:
* the language code has to be added to po/LINGUAS, as before;
* one of the entries of the lib/language file has to be selected as
reference and be given the "HasGuiSupport true" property.
Normally the theBufferList().updatePreviews(); statement would go inside
of PrefDisplay::applyRC. However, that would not work well because
Buffer::updatePreviews() calls loader() which conditions on
(lyxrc.preview == LyXRC::PREVIEW_OFF) but the new RC has not been set at
this point.
This commit fixes a thinko in [8bab2338/lyxgit] causing the warning:
QObject::connect: No such slot lyx::frontend::GuiPreferences::slotApplyRC() in ../../../../src/frontends/qt4/GuiPrefs.cpp:3308
QObject::connect: (sender name: 'applyPB')
QObject::connect: (receiver name: 'PrefsUi')
This fixes the -geometry command line option and restores the
"Use icons from system's theme" checkbox in the preferences.
There is still code addressing Qt4 and xlib that has to be
audited. This code cannot be compiled with Qt5 because the
default backend is now xcb and not xlib. I have marked such
code with a "FIXME QT5" comment.
This patch fixes a series of warnings like:
{{{

For a description of the problem, see for example:

3 different strategies have been used:
* in frontend, some functions have been renamed.
* in InsetMath.h, Inset::write has been explicitly imported too
* in InsetMathNest.h, since a comment said that hiding Inset::metrics is intended, a special trick has bee used to silence the warning.
This branch implements string-wise metrics computation. The goal is to
have both good metrics computation (and font with proper kerning and
ligatures) and better performance than what we have with
force_paint_single_char. Moreover there has been some code
factorization in TextMetrics, where the same row-breaking algorithm
was basically implemented 3 times.
Globally, the new code is a bit shorter than the existing one, and it
is much cleaner. There is still a lot of potential for code removal,
especially in the RowPainter, which should be rewritten to use the new
Row information.
The bugs fixed and caused by this branch are tracked at ticket #9003:
http://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/9003
What is done:
* Make TextMetrics methods operate on Row objects: breakRow and
setRowHeight instead of rowBreakPoint and rowHeight.
* Change breakRow operation to operate at strings level to compute
metrics The list of elements is stored in the row object in visual
ordering, not logical. This will eventually allow to get rid of the
Bidi class.
* rename getColumnNearX to getPosNearX (and change code accordingly).
It does not make sense to return a position relative to the start of
row, since nobody needs this.
* Re-implement cursorX and getPosNearX using row elements.
* Get rid of lyxrc.force_paint_single_char. This was a workaround that
is not necessary anymore.
* Implement proper string metrics computation (with cache). Remove
useless workarounds which disable kerning and ligatures.
* Draw also RtL text string-wise. This speeds-up drawing.
* Do not cut strings at selection boundary in RowPainter. This avoids
ligature/kerning breaking in latin text, and bad rendering problems
in Arabic.
* Remove homebrew Arabic and Hebrew support from Encoding.cpp. We now
rely on Qt to do handle complex scripts.
* Get rid of LyXRC::rtl_support, which does not have a real use case.
* Fix display of [] and {} delimiters in Arabic scripts.
This variable was introduced to guard against any bad consequence of the then-new right-to-left
languages support. Let's be bold and get rid of it altogether!
Now right to left support is always enabled.
* 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
(unless it's already there, in which case it should move to the end of the next paragraph).
Change the preference setting name (mac_like_word_movement to mac_like_cursor_movement)
to better reflect its function.
Patch and description from Bennett Helm
The panels in GuiDocument and GuiPrefs are stored in a map. The keys are
the translated descriptions of these panels. Whenever someone changes the
gui language and reopens the Document Settings pane, LyX asserted because
it could not find the "Child Documents" pane.
If the WA is the last one showing a buffer, then the buffer may either be
closed or kept hidden, or the user is asked. The behaviour is controlled
by a new preference option.
For discussion, see http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.editors.lyx.devel/142638
The previous scheme of loading all possible translations and checking
whether the work is a bit too much "brute force" and causes problems
on Mac OS X (documents loaded with the wrong language).
Now there is an helper static method in Messages class that checks
whether a readable .mo file exist for the language. There should be an
API in gettext for doing that, but alas it is not possible.
As a consequence the method Language::translated() has been removed,
along with its cache.
