Two bugs reported by @arummler on #591 after merge:
"It works but to select the text field one has to right click on
it...I think there are competing handlers or something."
"the drag elements should be on the border of the box. In the
moment they appear directly left and right from the text."
Both reproduced headlessly (scripts/qet-gui-dialog.sh) against a fresh
build of current master and root-caused before touching anything.
Selection: DynamicElementTextItem::mousePressEvent() forwards a plain
click (no Shift) straight to parentElement()->mousePressEvent(), by
design and pre-existing -- it's what lets dragging a symbol by its own
label move the whole symbol rather than just the label. That's correct
and untouched here. But it means a plain click leaves the *parent*
selected, not the text, and #591's handles were wired only to the
text's own ItemSelectedHasChanged -- so they were only reachable via
Shift+click or a right-click's context menu (which happens to select
the item under the cursor for its own context menu, unrelated to the
Shift path), neither of which anyone reaches for to resize a text.
Confirmed with screenshots at each step, including that Shift+click
already reached the existing (if misplaced) handles correctly.
Fix: DynamicElementTextItem::refreshResizeHandlesVisibility() shows the
handles when either the text itself or its parent element is selected,
and Element gets an itemChange() override (it had none) that calls it
on each of its own texts when the element's own selection changes. Both
sides driven from itemChange(), Qt's own hook for exactly this and the
same one already used for the text's own selection.
First attempt drove this from paint() instead, since the PR's own
updateResizeHandlesPos() already runs there. That crashed reproducibly
(SIGABRT) on deselecting a text: paint() runs while QGraphicsScene
iterates its item list to draw it, and addResizeHandles()/
removeResizeHandles() mutate that list via QGraphicsScene::addItem()/
removeItem(), which cannot safely happen mid-iteration. Caught it with
the same headless repro before it went anywhere near a PR, moved the
logic to itemChange(), and re-ran the full sequence -- select, resize,
undo, deselect, twice through -- clean.
Position: updateResizeHandlesPos() placed the handles on frameRect(),
which is a box sized to the text's natural (idealWidth()) content and
then re-centred inside boundingRect() -- it does not grow with
textWidth(). Once a text has been widened, frameRect() stays tight
around the glyphs while boundingRect() -- the box QGraphicsView actually
outlines as the selection, and the box a user drags relative to -- grows
around it, leaving the handles stranded well inside the visible
selection border. Fix: position them on boundingRect() instead, which
does track textWidth(); confirmed by widening a text and checking the
handle lands exactly on the new edge rather than partway across it.
Verified headlessly end to end on the original report's own element
("motor off" on grafcet.qet, folio 1): a single plain left-click (no
Shift, no right-click) now shows both handles at the true box border;
dragging resizes correctly and the handle tracks the growing edge;
Ctrl+Z restores the -1 auto-width sentinel and the handles stay at the
reverted position; clicking away removes them; repeated twice with no
crash. Qt 6.10.2, ctest 12/12, no new warnings in either changed file.

When duplicating a diagram page, copied slave elements retain stale
data from the source: labels, descriptions, link references, and PLC
master information (type, address, function, comment, cross-ref, timer
values) remain in the copies.
Fix by adding clearPendingLinks() to Element to prevent copies from
linking back to source elements via stale UUIDs, and by cleaning up
copied element data after fromXml():
- Slaves always lose their label, formula, comment, location, and
PLC master data, since their text comes from a master element which
is not available on the copy. The displayed text on slave elements
is cleared directly via setPlainText(), but UserText items (free
text typed by the user) are preserved.
- For PLC slaves, setElementInformations() is called without
m_block_alignment so that elementInfoChanged() can run
finishAlignment() to correctly adjust text positions for the
cleared content.
- Non-slave elements respect the existing erase-label-on-copy
preference, same as PasteDiagramCommand::redo().
- Conductor labels are also reset when erase-label-on-copy is
active, matching PasteDiagramCommand::redo() (issue #413).
- Text alignment is preserved by wrapping setElementInformations()
with m_block_alignment for non-slave elements, same as
Element::fromXml().
- Element::reloadPicture() now returns a ReloadPictureResult and never
clears the current drawing before a successful rebuild: a missing or
unreadable definition leaves the element as it was instead of blank.
- Elements whose size, hotspot or terminals (added, removed or moved)
differ from the new definition are not redrawn: the new drawing would
no longer match their bounding rect and live terminals.
- The action lists those elements and warns that they must be removed
and re-inserted, which deletes the conductors already connected to
them.
- Status tip states the action is not undoable.
A placed element is drawn once from its definition at construction --
buildFromXml() only turns terminal/input/dynamic_text tags into live
child objects, every other primitive (line, rect, ellipse, polygon,
arc, text) is pre-rendered into a QPicture by ElementPictureFactory,
cached forever under the element's uuid with no invalidation path
anywhere in the codebase. Edit and save a symbol's drawing and every
already-placed instance keeps showing the old one until the project
is closed and reopened.
Fix, scoped to what is safe to do without ever risking a conductor or
a dynamic text's per-instance state:
- ElementPictureFactory::dropCache(location) forgets the cached
drawing for one location, so the next fetch rebuilds it from the
definition's current content.
- Element::reloadPicture() re-fetches and repaints one instance.
- Projet > "Recharger les dessins des éléments": walks every diagram,
drops each distinct location's cache once, then reloads every placed
instance.
Deliberately does not touch terminals or dynamic texts -- a definition
whose terminal positions moved still needs the existing remove-and-
reinsert workflow, since terminals are what conductors are attached to
and a wrong guess there would silently misconnect wires.
Verified: build clean, ctest 6/6. Triggered the new action on a real,
densely-wired project (76 elements) via exact keyboard-menu navigation
cross-checked against the menu's own addAction order -- ran to
completion, correct confirmation dialog, no crash, diagram unchanged
and uncorrupted afterward. Could not complete a live edit-and-watch-
it-update trace: opening the element editor on a selected item via
GUI automation was unreliable in this environment (same class of
friction as PR #888), and this sandbox has no file-based (common://)
element to mutate on disk as a shortcut -- every example project
embeds its elements. The mechanism itself is traced correct:
ElementsLocation::xml() for an embed:// location reads the project's
live in-memory collection DOM on every call, so a dropped cache
rebuilds from whatever was most recently saved.

Placing an auto-numbered element or conductor advances a shared
NumerotationContext counter (QETProject::addConductorAutoNum/
addElementAutoNum) as a side effect that sat entirely outside the undo
stack. Undoing the placement removed the visible number but left the
counter advanced, so every undo of an auto-numbered placement silently
burned a number, with no way to get it back short of a manual reset.
Adds SetAutoNumContextCommand, a small QUndoCommand storing the old/new
NumerotationContext and calling the matching add*AutoNum() setter on
undo()/redo() -- the same shape QPropertyUndoCommand already uses next
to it in ConductorAutoNumerotation::applyText().
Wires it into the two conductor call sites (the static newProperties(),
and numerateNewConductor(), both in ConductorAutoNumerotation) and the
element call site (Element::setUpFormula(), called from
DiagramEventAddElement::addElement() when a new element is dropped onto
a diagram). setUpFormula() now takes an optional parent QUndoCommand;
addElement() calls it before pushing its own undo_object so the counter
change lands in the same undo macro as the element's placement -- one
Ctrl+Z reverts both together, instead of leaving the counter adrift.
The project-properties config dialog's own add*AutoNum() calls (editing
the numbering rule itself, not a side effect of placing something) are
deliberately left untouched, as are the load-time folio-sequential
bookkeeping calls in Diagram::loadElmtFolioSeq()/loadCndFolioSeq() and
the bulk folio-renumbering passes in QETProject -- none of those run as
part of an undoable user gesture.
Implements the scope proposed in discussion #608.
This avoid to parse the same element definition each time user drop the same element in the diagram.
Only the first element build the picture, all other get the created picture which is shared.
2- For use the "implicite shared" QPicture and QPixmap of element, now this isn't the element who build her picture, but a dedicated class who made only this job : build the QPicture and QPixmap of elements.
3- With the two previous novelty, the class CustomElement and GhostElement are became useless, and so was removed.
Some few member function of CustomElement was moved to Element.
