The settings and project dialogs list their pages with 64 or 128 pixel
icons, and two pages had theirs at 22 pixels only: the terminal-strip
page and the shortcuts page, which borrowed configure-toolbars. Both get
a 128 pixel icon drawn in the style of the other page icons, the
shortcuts page under its own name, configure-shortcuts. The SVG sources
sit beside the PNGs.
On a dark palette the Printing and Export pages were small too: their
128 pixel icons exist in the light theme only, and Qt inherits by name,
not by size, so the dark theme's small copies were scaled up instead.
make_icon_themes.py now aliases the light files of the sizes a dark name
lacks, when they read on the dark window at 3:1.
A test asks the theme for every page icon at 128 pixels, on both
palettes.
Fixes#960
QET had no icon theme: the 446 entries of the icon table and the 116
iconsets in .ui files each named a resource path, so an icon could only
ever be one file, and a variant for another palette or a vector source
had nowhere to go (GitHub #466, #690, #870). This adds the theme layout
without changing a single pixel; a dark variant comes in a follow-up.
The theme "qet" follows the freedesktop layout Qt's icon loader
understands. misc/make_icon_themes.py generates ico/icon-themes.qrc,
which aliases the existing ico/<size>/<name>.png files into
themes/qet/<size>/<name>.png, and ico/themes/qet/index.theme. No file
moves. The four table entries that paired a 16 pixel file with a 22
pixel file of another name (ConductorSettings, DiagramAdd,
DiagramDelete, DialogInformation) get the 22 pixel file aliased under
the 16 pixel name.
QETApp::initIconTheme() registers the theme before initIcons() and makes
it current on every platform, so a desktop icon theme cannot replace
QET's icons. Icons are then looked up by name: QIcon::fromTheme() in
qeticons.cpp and in the few places that built a QIcon from a resource
path directly, and theme="..." on the iconsets in .ui files, with the
resource path kept as fallback. Flags, color swatches, application and
MIME icons stay on their paths.
One entry does not go through the theme. The elements panel draws the
project root with ProjectFileGP in the 50 pixel slot it reserves for
element previews, and the name "project" also carries the 128 pixel
file the configuration dialog uses. On a 2x display Qt's loader picks
that file for a 50 pixel request and fills the slot. ProjectFileGP
loads the 16 and 22 pixel files directly, as before.
tests/qttest/tst_qeticons: every name in the theme resolves, the four
aliases resolve at 22 pixels, a Fusion tool button shows its icon at
3:1 with disabled weaker than enabled, and the project root icon stays
at 22 pixels or less when asked for 50 at 2x while the configuration
dialog still gets its 128 pixel file. The rendering helpers shared
with tst_qetpalette moved to tests/qttest/inkcontrast.h.
Shapes and images can now be resized, rotated, and skewed directly
on the canvas, not just moved. Both share one small transform
struct (rotation, then skew, then scale, anchored on a movable
pivot) and one handle widget, so a corner drag, an edge skew, or
grabbing the rotate handle behaves the same way and runs through
the same matrix math everywhere, instead of every item type
reinventing its own.
Shapes also gained a proper pen tool (bezier paths, corner/smooth/
symmetric nodes), arc support, and mirroring. Images gained
non-destructive cropping and colour-keyed transparency, both
remember their own settings, so reopening the dialog picks up
where you left off instead of starting over.
Properties dialogs for both were extended to match (position,
size, angle, skew), with undo/redo wired through for every handle
drag.
Old XML files can read easily as the transformation is only added
if needed and the old syntax is still used and understood if it is
not needed.
- Add DPI selection (150/300/600) to the page selection dialog
- Add live page preview in the selection dialog
- Conditionally compile PDF import only for Qt6 (#if QT_VERSION)
- Add custom pdf-import icon (PDF document with + symbol)
- Register new icon in qelectrotech.qrc
- Qt5 builds: PDF import action is hidden, everything else works as before
Now that the problem with the translations of keyboard shortcuts has been resolved and rotation using the space bar works reliably in principle, I took a closer look at the rotation function itself in the element editor.
I noticed, for example, that arcs can be rotated at an angle of 15°. This doesn't really make sense, as the “arc” part doesn't have the “rotation” property. There is only width and height.
And somehow rotating arcs didn't work well: start- and span-angles weren't adjusted.
Lines and polygons can be rotated in 15° increments, which doesn't make much sense, if other parts that can only be rotated in 90° increments are selected at the same time.
To make a long story short:
I reworked the rotation functions of the graphical parts so that now all parts are rotated in 90° steps around the origin! This means that it is now possible to mark several parts and rotate them around the same point at the same time!
In addition, the functions for mirroring graphic parts at y-axis (shortcut "M") and flipping at x-axis (shortcut "F") have been implemented.
I have saved the text elements for later!
