Discussion #599's own scope explicitly deferred this ("Related, not
proposed here... a natural follow-up once basic pan/zoom motion works").
Basic pan/zoom now works (previous commits on this branch), so this adds
it -- generically, for whichever SpaceMouseBackend is in use, not tied to
libspnav specifically, matching the seam the previous commit built.
## Reuses ShortcutManager instead of inventing a second action registry
ShortcutManager is already an app-wide registry of every named, rebindable
action -- undo, redo, rotate selection, cut/copy/paste, autonum configure,
and dozens more -- each carried by a live QAction or QAbstractButton. A
device button binding to one of *those* ids, rather than to a bespoke
QET-3D-mouse-only action list, means the discussion's own examples
(rotate/mirror/undo) are available for free, and any action added to the
app in the future is automatically bindable too.
Added ShortcutManager::trigger(id): find the first still-alive target for
an id and call QAction::trigger() or QAbstractButton::click(), whichever
it is. Deliberately not disambiguated by which window is currently active,
unlike SpaceMouseListener's own pan/zoom dispatch -- a target's owning
top-level window isn't reliably discoverable from a bare QAction. Correct
in the overwhelming common case of one open editor window; documented in
the header as a known simplification, not silently assumed correct.
## The binding itself: SpaceMouseButtonMap
A thin QSettings-backed button-number -> action-id map, unbound by default
for every button on every device -- nothing happens on any button press
until the user opens Configuration > Souris 3D and binds something,
matching this whole feature's "silent until asked for" default.
## Backend side: SpaceMouseBackend::buttonPressed(int)
Added to the platform interface alongside the existing motion() signal.
SpnavBackend now handles SPNAV_EVENT_BUTTON (previously explicitly
ignored) and emits on press only -- release is not reported, since nothing
downstream has a use for it. A future non-spnav backend implements the
same signal and gets button support for free through
SpaceMouseListener::applyButton(), without that logic being duplicated or
re-verified per backend -- the same reasoning the previous commit's seam
was built around.
## Configuration UI: SpaceMouseConfigPage
Modelled directly on the existing ShortcutsConfigPage -- same QTableWidget
shape, same "persist on applyConf(), not live" contract -- one row per
binding: button number (spin box, unbounded, since button count and
numbering genuinely vary from 2 to 30+ across real devices and this could
not be checked against hardware) and action (combo box populated from
ShortcutManager::instance().allShortcuts(), the exact same live registry
the Shortcuts page itself lists). Only added to the Configuration dialog
when QET_SPACEMOUSE_SUPPORT is compiled in.
## Verified, including the one thing that doesn't need hardware to prove
Rebuilt from scratch both ways: option off adds zero new object code
(confirmed via a forced rebuild of the one unconditionally-changed file,
shortcutmanager.cpp, which alone picked up new warning-free code); option
on compiles all four new/changed files warning-free and links clean.
The backend's button *detection* (SPNAV_EVENT_BUTTON -> buttonPressed
signal) still cannot be verified without a real device or daemon -- same
limitation as the motion path from the previous commits, stated plainly
rather than glossed over.
What *is* fully verified, because none of it needs hardware:
- SpaceMouseButtonMap: unbound by default, set/read-back, clearing via an
empty id, enumeration -- all confirmed via a standalone harness linked
against the real compiled objects.
- ShortcutManager::trigger(): registered a real QAction, confirmed
trigger() fires it exactly once and returns true; confirmed it returns
false (not a crash) for an unknown id.
- SpnavBackend: constructs safely with no daemon present (isAvailable()
false, as it must be), and both its motion and buttonPressed signals
are correctly wired per Qt's own metaobject data (QSignalSpy).
- The configuration page end-to-end, via a real Xvfb session: opened
Configuration > Souris 3D, confirmed the action combo box lists the
live, real ShortcutManager registry (undo, rotate, cut/copy/paste,
dozens more -- not a mock), added rows, edited the button number,
removed rows, selected "Éditeur de schémas — Pivoter" (Rotate -- the
discussion's own example) for button 3, clicked OK, and confirmed via
the actual settings file that it persisted exactly as
"buttons\3=diagrameditor.rotate_selection". Reopened the dialog and
confirmed it read back correctly. This is a full, real round trip
through the UI, not a claim.
The user asked for phase 2 (Windows/macOS via 3Dconnexion's proprietary
3DxWare SDK) on top of #635. This sandbox has no 3DxWare SDK, no Windows
toolchain, and no macOS toolchain -- nothing to compile, link, or run a
single line of platform code against, unlike the Linux/libspnav path,
which was built and actually tested here for real. Writing 3DxWare
integration code that has never even built would be a materially weaker,
unverifiable thing sitting in this PR, so it is not in this commit.
What is: the structural seam that makes adding it later a contained,
reviewable change instead of a rewrite of code that already works.
## Before
SpaceMouseListener did three unrelated things in one class: own the
libspnav connection, read spnav events, and apply motion to the active
DiagramView. A Windows/macOS backend would have had to either duplicate
all of the DiagramView-facing logic (the pan/zoom calls, the Z-to-zoom-
factor mapping, the "which view is active" lookup -- all already verified)
or bolt onto the same class with a maze of #ifdefs. Either way, touching
that file again would put the already-tested Linux path back in scope for
review.
## After
- SpaceMouseBackend: a tiny interface (isAvailable(), a motion(dx,dy,dz)
signal). A backend's only job is owning one platform's connection to the
driver/daemon and translating its native event into this one signal.
- SpnavBackend: the libspnav code from the previous commit, moved behind
that interface with no behaviour change -- still spnav_open() in the
constructor, still a QSocketNotifier on spnav_fd(), still silent when no
daemon/device is present.
- SpaceMouseListener: now backend-agnostic. Owns whichever backend the
platform provides, applies its motion to the active DiagramView exactly
as before. The DiagramView-facing code (pan/zoom calls,
zoomFactorForZAxis) did not need to change at all -- only its input
changed from a spnav_event_motion struct to three plain ints.
A future 3DxWare backend implements SpaceMouseBackend, is selected in
SpaceMouseListener's constructor behind its own
QET_SPACEMOUSE_BACKEND_3DXWARE guard (see the comment marking exactly
where), and never has to touch SpnavBackend or SpaceMouseListener's
DiagramView-facing half.
## CMake: one user option, one define per backend
QET_ENABLE_SPACEMOUSE is unchanged as the single option a user sets.
Internally, find_spacemouse.cmake now decides *which* backend (if any)
that resolves to: on Linux with libspnav found, QET_SPACEMOUSE_BACKEND_SPNAV
plus the umbrella QET_SPACEMOUSE_SUPPORT. Turning the option on anywhere
else today downgrades cleanly with a warning naming discussion #599,
instead of trying (and failing) to find libspnav on a platform that
doesn't ship it. Adding 3DxWare later means adding one more branch here,
not restructuring this file.
## Verified this is a pure refactor, not just "still compiles"
Reconfigured and rebuilt both ways from scratch:
- option off: unchanged from before -- no new source files compiled, zero
new object code.
- option on: both new files compile with zero warnings, binary still
links against libspnav.so.0 (confirmed via ldd), and run to completion
in this environment (which has no spacenavd) with zero crashes and zero
spnav-related output -- identical to before the refactor.
- zoomFactorForZAxis re-linked and re-run in isolation: identical output
to the pre-refactor commit (z=0 -> exactly 1.0, z=+-350 -> 1.35/0.65),
confirming the math moved unchanged rather than being reimplemented.
Implements discussion #599's phase 1 (Linux, libspnav): a 3Dconnexion
6-DOF device pans and zooms the active diagram view, via spacenavd.
## Off by default, zero cost when off
QET_ENABLE_SPACEMOUSE (cmake/developer_options.cmake) is OFF. Verified in
two separate build directories from a clean configure: with it off, the
new cmake/find_spacemouse.cmake step runs and does nothing (no library
lookup, no definition, no new source files compiled), and qetapp.cpp/.h
produce zero new object code -- both are entirely #ifdef'd out. The
default build is byte-for-byte the same shape as before this commit.
With it on, libspnav is located via its pkg-config file (spnav.pc, shipped
by libspnav-dev on Debian/Ubuntu and equivalent packages elsewhere). If the
option is on but the library isn't found, this does not hard-fail
configure: it downgrades back to off with a warning, so an opt-in feature
never blocks a developer who doesn't have the library installed.
## No new navigation logic -- a new input source for the existing one
DiagramView::wheelEvent() already turns a physical wheel's delta into
horizontalScrollBar()/verticalScrollBar() calls for pan and a
zoom(1 + value/1000) call for zoom -- see diagramview.cpp:661-687.
SpaceMouseListener calls exactly those same primitives from spnav motion
events instead of wheel events. It does not reimplement panning or
zooming.
## Safe by construction even when compiled in
The overwhelming majority of users of a build with the option on still
won't have spacenavd running or a device attached -- that must never
surface as an error dialog or a startup warning. SpaceMouseListener::
isAvailable() reflects this: spnav_open() failing is treated as the
ordinary case, not an error, and the object then does nothing at all.
Verified for real in this environment, which genuinely has no spacenavd
running: built with the option on, ran the resulting binary to completion,
and confirmed zero crashes and zero spnav-related output of any kind --
the silence is the point.
Motion is read via a QSocketNotifier on spnav_fd() (event-driven, no
polling loop, no idle cost) and applied to whichever DiagramView is
currently active, found via qApp->activeWindow() -> QETDiagramEditor ->
currentProjectView() -> currentDiagram(): a 6-DOF device is one ambient
input source for the whole application, not something tied to a
particular window, so there is exactly one listener, owned by QETApp.
## What could not be verified without hardware
The Z-axis-to-zoom-factor mapping (SpaceMouseListener::zoomFactorForZAxis)
is a pure function specifically so it could be tested without a live
device: confirmed a centered device (z=0) yields exactly 1.0 (an exact
no-op, not an epsilon-off value that could trip DiagramView::zoom()'s
>=1 branch), and that push/pull produce symmetric zoom-in/out factors.
What genuinely cannot be checked in this environment: which physical axis
is "left/right" vs "up/down" vs "push/forward", their sign, and whether
the ZOOM_DIVISOR/PAN_SCALE constants feel right on real hardware. Both are
named constants specifically so recalibrating them is a one-line change
once someone with a device tries it -- flagged plainly in the PR rather
than presented as verified.
## Not in this commit
Windows/macOS (proprietary 3DxWare SDK, materially bigger lift) and
device button mapping are both explicitly out of scope for this phase per
the discussion.
Three new QUndoCommand subclasses (AddDiagramCommand, RemoveDiagramCommand,
MoveDiagramCommand) pushed onto the project's existing (already
project-scoped) undo stack, so folio structure edits are undoable
alongside every item-level edit already on that stack.
- QETProject::addDiagram()/detachDiagram() are the shared attach/detach
primitives: they mutate the diagram list, connect/disconnect the two
per-diagram signals set up at add time, and emit diagramAdded/
diagramRemoved. AddDiagramCommand and RemoveDiagramCommand call these
(via friend access) for both redo and undo, so a removed diagram is
parked rather than destroyed -- it's only actually deleted if the
command itself falls out of undo history while still detached.
- ProjectView reacts to diagramRemoved the same way it already reacted to
diagramAdded (tearing down/rebuilding the tab), so both directions of
both commands go through the same reactive path every other diagram
listener (project database, cross-references, generic panel) already
relies on.
- MoveDiagramCommand wraps a new ProjectView::setDiagramPosition(), which
performs the tab move and the project's diagramOrderChanged() list
reorder synchronously in one step, instead of relying on the queued
tabMoved connection (needed for interactive drag-and-drop) to catch up
later -- avoiding a second, redundant reorder from that queued call.
- Multi-folio delete and multi-folio move (QETDiagramEditor::removeDiagrams()
and the moveDiagram*(QList<Diagram*>) batch slots) wrap their per-diagram
loop in QUndoStack::beginMacro()/endMacro(), so a multi-select action is
one undo step, matching current UX.
- Softened the delete confirmation's "this change is irreversible" wording
now that it no longer is.
Verified headlessly (Xvfb + xdotool + scrot): add/undo/redo, delete/undo/
redo (single and multi-select, single undo step for the batch), and
move/undo/redo all behave correctly against a 7-folio project.
Implements the first pillar of #574: a "Shortcuts" preferences page letting
users rebind, search and reset every keyboard shortcut in the app.
What it does
- New ShortcutManager singleton: every one of the ~95 setShortcut()/
setShortcuts() call sites across qet.cpp, qetmainwindow.cpp,
elementspanelwidget.cpp, autonumberingdockwidget.cpp, richtexteditor.cpp,
qetdiagrameditor.cpp, qettemplateeditor.cpp and qetelementeditor.cpp now
calls registerAction(target, id, category, default_sequence) instead,
which applies the user's saved override (or the default) and remembers
the target for later editing.
- New ShortcutsConfigPage, added to the existing "Configurer QElectroTech"
dialog: a filterable table of every registered shortcut, grouped by
category, each with a QKeySequenceEdit and a per-row reset button, plus a
"reset all" button. Bindings are only persisted (via
ShortcutManager::setSequence()) when the dialog is accepted.
- Conflict detection: rows whose currently-edited sequence collides with
another row are highlighted with a tooltip naming the conflicting action.
- Overrides are stored under a "shortcuts/" QSettings group, one key per
id, keyed to match the id (not persisted at all when equal to the
hardcoded default), so a future QET version can safely raise a default
for anyone who never customized it.
Design notes
- Targets are handled generically via QObject rather than QAction, since one
call site (autonumberingdockwidget's "Configurer" button) is a
QPushButton, not a QAction. Both declare an identical "shortcut"
QKeySequence Q_PROPERTY, so registerAction() reads/writes it through the
property system instead of needing a separate code path.
- Several live targets can share one id at once -- QET allows multiple
windows of the same kind (diagram editor, element editor...) open
simultaneously, each constructing its own QAction with the same id.
setSequence() updates every live target for that id in one call, so a
rebind takes effect in all open windows immediately, without restart.
- A shortcut's description is captured from its target's text() the first
time that id is registered, then cached -- so the config page stays
correct even after the owning window is closed. One consequence: a
shortcut belonging to an on-demand window (element editor, title block
editor, rich text editor) only appears in the list once that window has
been opened at least once in the current session, since nothing has
registered its id yet otherwise.
Testing
Full CMake build (qmake CONFIG+=no_kf5, Qt 5.15) compiles clean with zero
errors and zero new warnings. Verified end-to-end in a real running session
(Xvfb + xdotool):
- The Shortcuts page appears in Configure QElectroTech with the right icon,
lists every always-registered shortcut with correct category/action name/
current binding.
- The filter box correctly narrows the list, and correctly returns nothing
for an action whose owning window hasn't been constructed yet this
session (confirming the on-demand-registration behavior above is working
as designed, not silently broken).
- Conflict detection correctly flagged a real pre-existing same-key overlap
between "Supprimer" (delete selection, Del) and "Supprimer ce folio"
(delete diagram from panel, Del) -- both highlighted with explanatory
tooltips.
- Rebound "Manuel en ligne" to Ctrl+Shift+M, clicked OK: persisted under
[shortcuts] in QElectroTech.conf, and the Aide menu's entry showed the new
binding immediately, no restart needed.
- Reopened the dialog: the rebind was still shown. Clicked its per-row
reset button, then OK: the settings key was removed entirely (not stored
as "F1"), correctly falling back to the hardcoded default.
Retrofitting the Tab/Shift+Tab, select-all (#585) and Ctrl+G jump-to-element
(#586) shortcuts through this registry is left for a follow-up once those
PRs land, to avoid re-merging still-open branches into this one.
Developed with assistance from Claude (Anthropic).
Implements the third pillar of #574: a lightweight quick-open popup
for jumping straight to an element on the current diagram, rather
than scrolling/scanning visually.
New JumpToElementDialog (sources/ui/): a small QDialog with a filter
QLineEdit and a live-filtered QListWidget beneath it. Built from
every Element on the diagram, searchable against its label
(elementInformations().value("label")), type name (Element::name()),
and every other element information value, joined into one
lowercased search string per candidate. Up/Down move through the
filtered list, Enter selects the highlighted element on the diagram
(clearing the rest of the selection) and scrolls it into view via
ensureVisible(), Escape cancels without changing the current
selection. All three are handled via an event filter on the line
edit, so the user never has to leave the text field to navigate or
confirm.
Triggered by a new Ctrl+G action in QETDiagramEditor, added next to
the existing Ctrl+F "search and replace" action and to the Edit
menu. Confirmed free: not used anywhere in qetdiagrameditor.cpp or
qetmainwindow.cpp today.
Explicitly not a duplicate of the existing SearchAndReplace module
(also on this menu, via Ctrl+F): that's a bulk property search/replace
tool across whole diagrams; this is a single-item navigational
popup with no editing capability.
Verified end-to-end in a real running session (Xvfb + xdotool)
against a multi-transistor schematic: Ctrl+G opens the popup listing
every element; typing "Q16" live-filters down to the one match;
arrow keys move the highlighted row through the filtered list;
Enter selects the highlighted element (confirmed via the properties
panel showing its label) and closes the popup; Escape closes it
without changing the selection.

Adds a ProjectUsageTracker (sources/project/) that accumulates how
long a project has been the active tab, using QElapsedTimer so the
value is computed on demand rather than via polling. It's hosted on
ProjectPropertiesHandler per that class's own stated design intent
("all new properties should be managed by this class").
The accumulated time is persisted as a new <usage time_spent="N"
enabled="true|false"/> element, a sibling of <properties> in the
project XML, written/read by new QETProject::writeUsageXml()/
readUsageXml(). It rides along on the existing autosave path for
free, since writeBackup() already serializes the full project via
toXml().
QETDiagramEditor::subWindowActivated() now pauses every open
project's tracker except the one whose tab just became current, so
switching between several open projects keeps each project's tracked
time isolated.
Surfaced in the existing Project Properties "Général" page: a
"Temps passé sur ce projet" display, a "Réinitialiser" button, and
an opt-out checkbox ("uniquement enregistré localement dans ce
fichier" - this is local-only, never transmitted anywhere).
Verified beyond compiling: full CMake build, then an actual runtime
session confirming the saved XML's time_spent value, that closing
and reopening the project round-trips and resumes timing, that the
reset button works, and - the key correctness check - that with two
projects open, the inactive one's time_spent stays frozen while the
active one accumulates real elapsed time, over the same interval.
See discussion #576.

QET_LANG_PATH was "l10n/" for WIN32, a value that appears nowhere else in
the tree: the MSI shortcuts pass --lang-dir="[INSTALLDIR]lang/", and the
windows-build workflow copies the .qm files into files/lang/. So the
compiled-in default pointed at a directory no packaging creates, leaving
the command-line argument to do all the work.
Align it with what is actually shipped, so the binary-relative lookup
added in the previous commit can find the translations on its own.
Listing GuiPrivate unconditionally in QET_COMPONENTS breaks the whole
Qt5 configure: find_package(Qt5 COMPONENTS GuiPrivate) looks for a
Qt5GuiPrivateConfig.cmake that has never existed - Qt5 creates the
Qt5::GuiPrivate target implicitly together with Gui. Only Qt6 requires
(and provides) the explicit component.
Move the request into a QT_VERSION_MAJOR-guarded find_package after the
main one, both for the application and for tests/catch (whose targets
link Qt::GuiPrivate via QET_PRIVATE_LIBRARIES). Fixes the msys2/Qt5
Windows CI configure failure:
"Could not find a package configuration file provided by Qt5GuiPrivate".
Verified: Qt 6.11 configure passes and the Qt6::GuiPrivate target is
created (the private-module warning now fires from the guarded call).
The Qt5 path simply no longer requests the component, restoring the
pre-existing implicit behaviour.
Provide a small KAutoSaveFile-compatible implementation for the no-KF5 build path and use it to keep the existing crash-recovery code active when BUILD_WITH_KF5=OFF.

The BUILD_WITH_KF5 option was checked with DEFINED, so passing -DBUILD_WITH_KF5=OFF still entered the KF5 setup path.

- Resolve cmake/qet_compilation_vars.cmake conflict: keep both upstream's
cli_export.cpp/h and pdf_links.cpp/h and the EDZ source additions.
- 10-position grid alignment: pin_y values are multiples of 10 so terminals
snap cleanly to QET's default grid. group_gap raised to 10 (one full slot).
- Named connector groups get a header label (group name) placed in the gap
above the first pin, so the electrician sees block names (XDI, XPOW, …)
without reading individual terminal designations.
- Device-tag dynamic_text now uses 9pt LABEL_FONT and y = min_y - 9 so it
clears the element body and is legible at normal zoom.
- Add EPLAN Data Portal Terms of Use disclaimer to sources/import/edz/README.md.

Replaces the QProcess->7z shim with the public-domain LZMA SDK (23.01) 7-Zip
reader, vendored under sources/import/edz/lzma/ (decode-only subset). New
edzsevenzip.cpp wraps SzArEx_Open/SzArEx_Extract and writes entries via Qt, so
EdzArchive no longer needs an external 7-Zip at runtime. Enables the C language
in CMake for the vendored sources.
Verified: the bundled decoder extracts all three ifm sample .edz and the
generated elements still match the Python oracle exactly (byte-correct decode),
with no 7z on the path.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Wires EPLAN .edz import into the elements panel. EdzImporter orchestrates
EdzArchive -> EdzPart -> EdzElementBuilder and writes the generated .elmt into a
destination collection folder (named by order number). A right-click
"Importer une piece EPLAN (.edz)..." action on a writable collection directory
opens a file picker, runs the importer into that folder's fileSystemPath() and
reloads the panel; errors surface via QetMessageBox. Modeled on newElement().
EdzImporter verified headless against the Python oracle for KG6000/MFH200/
R1D200; the panel wiring is built/tested via the WSL Qt5+KF5 build.

Port of the edz2qet.py prototype's mapping to C++. EdzPart parses an EPLAN
part.xml into a portable model (identity/metadata, localized names, connection
list); EdzElementBuilder turns that into a QET element (generic symbol: body
rectangle + one west-facing terminal per pin, per-pin labels, localized <name>s,
and elementInformations for the BOM).
Pins are natural-sorted by designation so they stack 1,2,3,4 regardless of the
order EPLAN lists them (MFH200 lists 1,3,4,2). Output verified structurally
identical (uuids aside) to the Python oracle for three ifm samples — KG6000
(4-pin), MFH200 (4-pin, reordered) and R1D200 (5-pin, incl. Dutch name) — and
the generated element loads in the QET editor with correct UTF-8.

First piece of native EPLAN Data Portal (.edz) import. A .edz is a 7-Zip
archive; QET previously had no archive handling. EdzArchive unpacks one to a
temporary directory and locates the contained part.xml.
The extraction backend is isolated behind extractWithSevenZipCli() so it can be
replaced with a bundled decompressor later without touching callers; this M0
step shells out to a 7-Zip CLI via QProcess. Verified on three ifm sample
parts (KG6000, MFH200, R1D200 — all 7z), plus the corrupt/missing-file paths.

Move the PDF cross-reference hyperlink logic out of ProjectPrintWindow
into a standalone translation unit so it can be reused (the CLI PDF
export will call it next):
- injectCrossRefLinks(): emits the URI link annotations for a diagram's
cross-references and folio reports. The scene-to-page mapping is passed
in as a PageGeometry (transform + devToPdf + source-rect lookup) so each
caller supplies its own correct geometry, rather than the helper assuming
a QPrinter.
- convertUriToGoTo(): the PDF post-processor, moved verbatim.
ProjectPrintWindow stays a pure caller: it builds its PageGeometry from the
printer page layout exactly as before and calls the helper. No behavioural
change to GUI PDF export; no class-structure changes.
Per review guidance on #483.
Implements the long-requested batch/headless export
(bugtracker #171, GitHub #309): render a project's diagrams to files
without opening the GUI.
qelectrotech --export-pdf <project.qet> <output.pdf> one multi-page PDF
qelectrotech --export-png <project.qet> <output_dir> one PNG per diagram
qelectrotech --export-svg <project.qet> <output_dir> one SVG per diagram
main.cpp detects an export request before SingleApplication is created (so the
arguments are not forwarded to a running instance), spins up a plain
QApplication for rendering, and exits with the export's status code.
Rendering reuses Diagram::render() over
BorderTitleBlock::borderAndTitleBlockRect(), the same geometry the GUI
print/export path uses, so output matches the editor. Image files are named
NN_Title.<ext>.
New files: sources/cli_export.{h,cpp}, registered in
cmake/qet_compilation_vars.cmake.
directly to the related component on its folio, framing the target element.
When a project is exported to PDF, every cross-reference becomes an internal
link. Four kinds are covered:
- **Master → contact**: the contact list on a coil/relay (`CrossRefItem`)
- **Folio report → report**: report element labels (`DynamicElementTextItem`)
- **Slave → master**: the `(folio-position)` reference shown on a slave
(both standalone `DynamicElementTextItem` and grouped `ElementTextItemGroup`)
Clicking a link navigates **inside** the open document (no new viewer
instance) and zooms to frame the target element.
1. **Injection** (`printDiagram`, only when the paint engine is a `QPdfEngine`):
link rectangles are added with `QPdfEngine::drawHyperlink()`. The scene→page
mapping is rebuilt to match exactly what `QGraphicsScene::render()` does
(top-left anchored, `KeepAspectRatio`, **no centering**), and rectangles are
passed in device pixels — `pageMatrix()` already applies the 72/resolution
scale and Y-flip internally.
2. Each link URL encodes the target page and the target element's rectangle, in
PDF points on its own page: `#page=N&fitr=L_B_R_T`.
3. **Post-processing** (`pdfConvertUriToGoTo`, run after the painter is closed):
the `/S /URI` annotations are rewritten to native `/S /GoTo` actions with a
`/D [pageObj 0 R /FitR L B R T]` destination, and the xref table is rebuilt.
Pages are enumerated from the `/Pages /Kids` tree (reliable), not by scanning
for `/Type /Page` in raw bytes.
- `sources/print/projectprintwindow.{cpp,h}` — injection + post-processing
- `sources/qetgraphicsitem/crossrefitem.{cpp,h}` — `hoveredContactsMap()` accessor; store text rect for hit area
- `sources/qetgraphicsitem/dynamicelementtextitem.h` — `slaveXrefItem()` / `masterElement()` accessors
- `sources/qetgraphicsitem/elementtextitemgroup.h` — `slaveXrefItem()` accessor
- `qelectrotech.pro`, `cmake/qet_compilation_vars.cmake` — enable Qt gui-private headers (`<private/qpdf_p.h>`)
- **Fit-to-page mode only.** Links are not injected in tiled mode (multiple
pages per folio), which would require a per-tile transform.
- Uses Qt private API (`QPdfEngine::drawHyperlink`), stable since Qt 4 but not
part of the public API; the build links against `gui-private`.
- Page-tree enumeration assumes the flat `/Kids` array Qt produces (no nested
page trees).
- The frame zoom is controlled by two constants in `destRectPdf` (`pad`,
`minSide`) and can be tuned.
- Tested on Qt5; the `/Kids` parsing and `pageMatrix` behaviour are identical on
Qt6.
Those desktop MIME types were needed only with KDE up to 3.x, as it
used to have its own desktop-based MIME type system. KDE 3 is EOL for
many years now, and there are already XDG MIME types.
These files are the bare XML definitions, and they are automatically
generated by update-mime-database (part of shared-mime-info) on update
(e.g. by distro hooks) or manually. Keeping them in the sources, and
installing them, is definitely not correct, as qelectrotech.xml is
their canonical definition.
Hence, drop them from the sources, together with references to them.
