Discussion #1070 proposed that rotate, like move, copy and delete, works on
the whole group once one of its items is clicked. Rotate (Space) turned
each member on its own spot instead, so rotating a group pulled it apart:
two grouped texts side by side ended up each turned in place, no longer
side by side.
When the selection is exactly one whole group -- wires aside, which follow
their symbols -- Rotate now turns it as one piece around its centre, as
"Pivoter le groupe" (Shift+Space) already does
(ItemGroups::soleWholeGroup()). Any other selection, including a single
member picked out of its group, rotates as before.
In the GUI, on two grouped texts selected by one click: Space on master
leaves both where they were, turned; here it gives exactly what
Shift+Space gives on both (both texts swung around the group's centre).
tst_itemgroups: 4 new checks; without the whole-group condition, a
picked member counts as a group and fails. ctest 24/24.

Clicking an item of a group selects the whole group (#1070). Clicking
again on one of its items is meant to select just that item, to edit it
on its own -- what discussion #1070 proposed -- but the second click
selected the whole group again: Qt left only the clicked item selected on
release, and the group completion pulled the others back in.
A press on a member of a group that is selected whole now notes that
member (ItemGroups::memberToPick(), which also finds the member when the
click lands on a symbol's own text). If the click ends without a drag and
Qt has left only that member selected, the selection stays so. A drag
still moves the whole group; Ctrl+click keeps its meaning; a group of one
is not picked from.
In the GUI, on two grouped texts: one click then Delete removes both
(master and this); click, click again, Delete removes only the clicked
text here, both on master; dragging after one click moves both texts by
the same amount on both. tst_itemgroups: 5 new checks; removing the
whole-group or the group-of-one condition fails one each. ctest 24/24.

Saving a project that had just been saved changed it again in 18 of the
24 example projects, so a project kept in version control showed changes
nobody made. Both causes were cleanup done on save but not on load:
- Symbol information whose values were all empty was written as an empty
<elementInformations/> block (DiagramContext::toXml() skips empty
values, Element::toXml() wrote the block anyway). The next load read it
as no information and the next save dropped it. The block is now written
only when something went into it.
- Information values were trimmed on save but not on load, so a label with
stray spaces (" PRISE") kept them in memory and in its displayed copy
until the project was opened again. The same rule, kept in one place,
now applies when reading: stray whitespace around real content trimmed,
a value that is only whitespace kept (#973).
All 24 examples now save identically a second time (master: 6), and each
one's first save is byte-for-byte what master wrote only on its second.
A title-block property set to a single space keeps it through two saves.
tst_resaveunchanged runs --resave twice on Projet_vierge.qet and
m_000.qet; both fail without this change.

A symbol keeps its derived uuid once saved, even when it is moved. A
symbol saved without a uuid that later turns up on the spot it left -- a
hand edit, an older version, another tool writing the file -- derived the
same uuid, and the project had two symbols with one identity.
readDiagramsXml() now collects every symbol and wire uuid the file
carries, on any folio, before a folio loads; derivedItemUuid() moves to
the next counter value while a candidate is among them. The result still
depends on the file alone. Renamed from derivedUuid(), which QETProject
already has for the project's own uuid.
tst_derivedsymboluuid: newcomerOnAMovedSymbolsSpotGetsAnotherUuid fails
with the check switched off.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
A symbol saved without a uuid got a random one from Element::fromXml()
on every load, and the next save wrote it out: two loads of the same file
gave the same symbol two identities, and anything pointing at it by uuid
(a script, a comparison of two versions, a wire's identity) could not
follow it from one session to the next.
When a folio is loaded, such a symbol now gets a UUID v5 derived from
what it is and where it sits: its type, its position on the folio and its
orientation. Never the folio's index, so inserting or moving a folio does
not change it. Identical symbols stacked on one spot, or a copied folio,
are told apart by a counter kept per project (QETProject::derivedUuid()),
in load order among those symbols alone. A paste still renews uuids.
Symbols that have a uuid in the file keep it. All 24 example projects
already have one for every symbol, so they are unchanged; with the
symbols' uuids stripped, each saves byte-for-byte the same twice (master:
different every time).
tst_derivedsymboluuid runs --resave on a fixture with its uuids stripped:
same uuids on every load, same after a folio is inserted in front, saved
uuids kept, stacked copies differ. The first two fail without this change.

qet.textIndex(), shapeIndex() and imageIndex() turn a free text's, shape's
or picture's uuid into the index the other calls take. Tables and symbol
text fields had no such lookup, so a script could only name them by index,
and an index shifts when an earlier item is deleted: a script that deletes
table 0 and then moves "table 1" moves the wrong table.
- qet.tableIndex(folio, uuid): the table's current index in tables(folio),
or -1.
- qet.elementTextIndex(folio, elementUuid, textUuid): the field's current
index in elementTexts(folio, elementUuid), or -1. The element is part of
the address because a field's uuid is unique only within its element:
copying an element keeps its fields' uuids (2612_ats_singlephase.qet has
one field uuid on 20 copies).
Tests in misc/qet-mcp's integration suite, which drives these through
--run: a table followed across a deletion of the one before it, and the
same field uuid resolving on two copies to each copy's own field. Both
fail against a build without this change.

The editor's bar row and command list mix element previews with command
icons. The command icons already follow the palette through the qet-dark
icon theme, and running them through ElementPreviewDelegate again
flattened them to one lightness (up to 16/255 per pixel off master; a
two-tone icon would have had its tones swapped).
Adapt the element icons once, where the items are built, instead of
installing the delegate on those lists. This also covers an element
dragged from the element list onto the bar, which copies the item's icon
and so previously kept the dark one until the editor was reopened.

The collection tree draws element previews through ElementPreviewDelegate,
which inverts the black line art on a dark palette. The ranked search list
(#1051) and the Insert element picker (#1052) are separate views and never
installed it, so their icons stayed black on a dark background.
Install the delegate on the ranked list, the picker's list and the shortcut
bar editor's lists, and adapt the pinned-element buttons' icons directly.
Coloured icons and light palettes are unchanged.
Reported in #1083.

A group whose only unlocked member is a shape (its other members
locked) kept a centre of (0,0), so Centrer horizontalement and
Centrer verticalement pulled every item toward the folio origin and
the shape itself landed off the line. The rule that turns a group's
members into one item now lives in Alignment::combined(), where every
member, shapes included, brings its own centre, and tst_alignment
covers it.
Also comments why unitFor()'s returned reference is safe, as asked in

The element description dialog only offered typing, so every article of
a catalogue had to be copied in by hand into the Artikelbeschreibung
row of each block, over and over.
Settings > General now keeps the path of a CSV material list (Créer...
writes a template with the header lines), and the Artikelbeschreibung
row of every block of the Bauteil dialog shows a "..." button opening a
searchable listing of that file. "Appliquer" fills the fields of that
block only -- the main block gets everything but label and formula, an
auxiliary block gets description, number, manufacturer, references,
supplier, quantity, unit and additional info -- and a cell that is
empty in the file never erases a value already in the element. The
symbol editor is left alone.
- sources/materiallist/: CSV reading and writing (UTF-8 BOM, ';', every
field quoted, atomic write through QSaveFile), two header lines
(translated labels then the canonical English keys), the selection
window and the new entry form.
- The selection window reads the file again every time it opens, keeps
its size, column widths, column order and sort between openings,
shows every column of the file, scrolls all four directions with the
wheel (Shift + wheel moves the columns) and puts back the order of
the file when the corner above the row numbers or a row number is
clicked.
- German translations for the new strings in lang/qet_de.ts.
conductorpropertieseditorwidget.cpp, from the #500 work, included
<KColorButton> unconditionally, so a build with BUILD_WITH_KF=OFF stopped
at "KColorButton: No such file or directory". Include the nokde stand-in
there instead, as dynamictextfieldeditor.h and terminaleditor.h do. It
has the same changed() signal the file connects to.
Checked on Ubuntu 22.04 (Qt 6.2.4, BUILD_WITH_KF=OFF): the file fails on
master and compiles with this change; together with #1085 the whole tree
builds and links. Builds with KDE Frameworks compile the same line as
before.

QDomDocument::ParseOption::PreserveSpacingOnlyNodes, used since 84add7b3e
to keep a title-block variable set to a single space through a reload,
only exists from Qt 6.5. On older Qt the project file is parsed as it was
before that commit: the build works again, and such a value reloads as
empty there.

"'QDomDocument::ParseOption' has not been declared" and compiles with
this change. On Qt 6.5 and later the code is unchanged.

Edit > Aligner gains six commands, also in the selection's context menu
and the command search: Aligner à gauche, Centrer horizontalement,
Aligner à droite, Aligner en haut, Centrer verticalement, Aligner en bas.
One undo step; wires follow their symbols. Second stage of discussion
#1069, on top of "Aligner sur la grille".
Left/right/top/bottom line the edges up on the outermost one. The two
centre commands line the items up on the mean of their centres, and a
symbol's centre is its origin point, not the middle of its drawing: in
the collection, vertical two-terminal symbols almost always have their
terminals on the origin's axis, so this puts their wires on one line.
A picture is aligned by the picture itself, without its caption
(imageRect() becomes public for this).
A group (#1070) lines up as one piece: its edges are its members'
together, and every member moves by the same amount, so the group keeps
its shape; shapes inside a group come along.
Each item moves only across the line it is aligned on, and lands on the
grid its drag uses, so aligning never takes a symbol off the grid. Two
symbols whose edges sit at different distances from their origins
cannot both be exactly on the line and on the grid; they end up within
half a grid step of it.
The commands need two items (Aligner sur la grille still needs one).
Locked items stay put and the status bar says so. If nothing moves, no
undo step is pushed and the status bar says the selection is already
aligned as far as the grid allows. The geometry is in alignment.h,
tested by tst_alignment.

The previous commit changed only the bar that appears beside the
cursor after a click. The S shortcut bar builds its own tooltips, so
its "Orienter les textes" button still said only that. Its tooltips
now carry the status tip on a second line as well, after the keyboard
shortcut.
Checked in the GUI: the S bar's second button shows "Orienter les
textes (Ctrl+Space)" over "Pivote les textes sélectionnés à un angle
précis".
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The "Orienter les textes" dialog always opened at 0, so turning a text
at 90 degrees by a little meant typing the angle in again. It now opens
at the angle every selected text and text group shares, and at 0 as
before when they differ.
The shortcut bar showed only a command's short name as its tooltip,
which for this one ("Choose texts orientation") does not say what it
does. It now adds the command's status tip on a second line: "Rotate
selected texts to a specific angle".
Checked in the GUI on a folio holding one text at 90 degrees: master
opens the dialog at 0.00, this at 90.00.

A query saved to nomenclature.json (Load/Save in the query editor, since
2020) before June 2022 still says element_type = 'Simple'. Loading it

#1051 replaced the filtered tree with a ranked flat list. A new checkbox
in Settings > General, "Afficher les résultats de recherche sous forme de
liste triée" (elementscollection/search-flat-list, default on), keeps the
ranked list; unticked restores the pre-#1051 filtered tree search.
The Insert picker and shortcut bar call rankedSearch() directly and are

Every wire was written in the default colour, whatever its colour on the
folio: 723 of the 3,190 wires in the example projects (23 %, in 10
projects) lost theirs. The wire outline now takes the wire's colour, and
its number the wire's text colour, mapped to the nearest DXF colour as
the free texts already are. Black still comes out as BYLAYER.
A two-colour wire gets its main colour, and dashed wires (46 in the
examples) stay continuous: DXF line types are not written yet.
Checked on the 24 example projects, 133 folios: exactly 723 wire
outlines now carry a colour of their own, the only change from the
previous commit; ezdxf reads all files with no audit errors.

Most entities were written with colour 0, BYBLOCK. Outside a block that
falls back to the default colour, so it shows black on white or white on
black, and no layer colour could change it: recolouring QET_WIRES in a
CAD program left the wires as they were. Black itself maps to 0 too
(RGBcodeTable[0]).
Colour 0 is now written as 256, BYLAYER. The layers are colour 7, so a
file looks the same on opening, and recolouring a layer now recolours
its contents. Real colours (free texts, terminal markers) are kept.
Checked on the 24 example projects, 133 folios: the only change from
the previous commit is 110,283 colour codes 0 -> 256, no entity is left
on 0, and ezdxf reads all of them with no audit errors. Rendered with
QET_WIRES set to red and QET_SYMBOLS to blue: before, 0 red and 0 blue
pixels; after, the wires and symbols take the layer colours.

Everything in an exported DXF was on layer 0, and the file had no LAYER
table: in a CAD program the border, title block, symbols, wires and texts
could not be hidden, printed or recoloured separately. Each kind of
content now has its own layer, declared in a LAYER table (white/black,
continuous, so the file looks the same on opening):
QET_BORDER, QET_TITLEBLOCK, QET_SYMBOLS, QET_SYMBOL_TEXTS,
QET_TERMINALS, QET_WIRES, QET_WIRE_NUMBERS, QET_JUNCTIONS, QET_TEXTS,
QET_XREFS, QET_SHAPES, QET_TABLES, QET_IMAGES
Fixed, untranslated names, so layer filters and scripts work in any
language. Createdxf gets a current layer beside its xScale/yScale;
DxfExport sets it before each kind of content, and BorderTitleBlock
switches to the title block layer itself. No DXF version change: layers
exist in R10.
Checked on the 24 example projects, 133 folios: with the layer values
set back to 0 and the LAYER table removed, every file is byte-identical
to before; no entity is on an undeclared layer or left on 0; ezdxf reads
all of them with no audit errors.

qelectrotech --export-dxf <project.qet> <output_dir> [--show-terminals]
writes one DXF per folio, named <NN>_<title>.dxf like the PNG and SVG
exports. Discussion #1072.
The DXF code moves out of ExportDialog into DxfExport, unchanged except
that its options come from an ExportProperties argument instead of the
dialog. The dialog and the command line both call it, and the command
line uses the dialog's default options (the preferences' export
settings), so both write the same entities.
- Createdxf answers a file it cannot open with a message box and
exit(0); the command line checks the file first and fails with a
message and exit code 1 instead.
- A note is printed when pictures become outline boxes, as the dialog
warns.
- Scripting: qet.exportDxf(outDir, showTerminals). MCP: format "dxf".

A nomenclature table saved by an older version filters on the element
type names the project database used then: element_type = 'Simple',
'Terminale', 'Master'. Commit 2e70d2e59 (June 2022) changed the database
to "simple", "terminal", "master", and SQLite compares text
case-sensitively, so such a table silently lost every row of that type
on open. Its continuation tables were then empty, and
removeUselessNextTable() deleted them: opening and saving the example
industrial.qet removed seven of its ten parts-list tables (folios 44-50),
and the remaining three listed 76 of 258 parts.
ProjectDBModel::fromXml() now rewrites old names in element_type = '...'
comparisons to the current ones (LegacyElementTypes::upgradeQuery()),
which also lets the query editor tick the right boxes again. A query
saved by a current version is unchanged, and so is any other text that
happens to contain "Simple".
Checked in the GUI on industrial.qet, open then save: master keeps
tables on 3 of folios 41-50, this keeps all 10, with 258 rows (the last
table 24 of 26) and the query saved as 'simple'. tst_legacyelementtypes
fails when a name maps wrongly.

A title block cell holding a line break (tableau_domestique.qet's
"DESSINE" + CR LF + "%{author}") was written into the DXF as one TEXT
value with the break inside it. A DXF value ends at the line break, so
every group code after it was off by one line: ezdxf refuses all five
folios of that example with DXFStructureError, and other readers take
values for codes.
- TitleBlockTemplate::renderTextCellDxf() writes each line of a cell as
its own TEXT, stacked by the cell's vertical alignment as the screen
shows them, 1.6 text heights apart as the diagram texts' DXF export
does. A single-line cell is written exactly as before.
- Createdxf's text writers turn any line break still in a value into a
space, so no other caller can break the file either.
Checked in the Export dialog: tableau_domestique.qet's five folios, which
ezdxf refused on master, now read with no audit errors; grafcet.qet, which
has no line break, keeps exactly the same entities. (Byte comparison waits
on the DXF entity-order fix: until then every export reorders its entities.)

Exporting the same folio to DXF twice gave files with the same entities
in a different order, so two exports never compared equal and a DXF could
not be diffed to spot a change. The export walked diagram->items(), whose
order follows memory addresses; saving had the same fault until
bugtracker #343.
Items are now taken in stacking order (z, then insertion order, which a
load makes the file's order), from the same rect query Diagram::toXml()
uses. Anything the query misses keeps its items() place after the rest.
Checked in the Export dialog on grafcet.qet, three folios, two exports
per build: master's differ every time, these are byte-identical, and both
contain exactly the same entities, only reordered.

Symbols, free texts, shapes and pictures can be grouped from the Edit
menu, the selection's context menu or the command search. Clicking one
member selects the group, so moving, copying and deleting act on all of
it; Ctrl+click on a member deselects the group; a rubber band touching
part of a group selects all of it when released. No default shortcut:
Ctrl+G is "jump to element".
A group is not an object in the scene. Each member keeps its place and
carries the group's uuid (QGraphicsItem::data()), saved as a "group"
attribute written only when set: a project without groups saves exactly
as before, and older versions open a grouped one and ignore the groups.
Re-parenting under a QGraphicsItemGroup would have made every member's
position group-relative; ElementTextItemGroup already needs nine special
cases for that.
- Selection is completed on clicks and at the end of a rubber band, not
on every selectionChanged(): export, search and Tab select items
themselves and must not have groups pulled back in.
- Project database: group_uuid on element, shape, independent_text and
image, kept in step by projectDataBase::itemGroupChanged().
- Paste and folio duplication give each source group one new uuid.
- Undo of Ungroup restores each item's exact group.
Builds on #1065 (uuids and database rows for texts, shapes and images).

Edit > Aligner > Aligner sur la grille, also in the selection's
context menu and the command search, puts each selected item back where
dragging it would have left it: symbols and pictures on the folio grid,
free texts on the text grid. One undo step; wires follow their symbols.
Symbols leave the grid through the fine nudge (Alt+arrow, 1 px), and
nothing put them back: 508 of the 3,678 symbols in the example projects
are off the 10 px grid. First stage of discussion #1069.
The status bar says how many items moved, or that the selection was
already on the grid, and how many locked items were left in place.
Shapes are left out: they are made of several points and no single one
is the obvious one to snap.
The snap never reads the keyboard, unlike Diagram::snapToGrid(), so a
user who binds the action to a shortcut with Ctrl gets the grid, not
pixel rounding. The geometry is in alignment.h, tested by tst_alignment.
