The selection properties dock (elementinfopartwidget.cpp) and the
element editor's information tree (elementpropertieseditorwidget.cpp's
EditorDelegate) both restrict the width/height/depth fields added for
cabinet layout support to numeric input via a validator.
QDoubleValidator follows the system/UI locale for its decimal
separator, which meant a comma was accepted as an intermediate state
and left the field impossible to leave in some contexts, even though
it was never a valid final value.
Switch both to a QRegularExpressionValidator matching
^[0-9]*\.?[0-9]{0,4}$: "." is a literal character in the pattern, not
locale-dependent, and [0-9] (rather than \d) excludes non-ASCII
digits. This guarantees a value entered this way can always be read
back with QString::toDouble() without locale handling. The check for
which keys are numeric (QETInformation::isNumericInfoKey) is shared
between both call sites; the validator setup itself stays local to
each, since QETInformation intentionally has no Qt Widgets dependency.
Also adds a placeholder ("ex. 80.5") and tooltip explaining the
expected format.
Adds three new elementInformation keys — width, height, depth (in mm)
— alongside the existing manufacturer/manufacturer_reference fields.
These describe the physical dimensions of the device a symbol
represents, set once per element definition.
Values are restricted to plain decimal numbers via a QDoubleValidator
on the information tree's item delegate (fixed-point, "." as decimal
separator via QLocale::c(), independent of the UI language), so a
later consumer can always parse them with toDouble() without
additional sanitization.
This option alows for displaying XRef without contact drawing.
This is useful for spliting one physical part into multiple
logical elements when the slave element is not a switch.
Use the function QETInformation::translatedInfoKey(const QString &info)
instead of QETApp::elementTranslatedInfoKey(const QString &info).
The final goal is to remove all information from the QETApp and use
instea QETInformation who is dedicated to this
