The panel shrank to its title bar whenever the selection had nothing it
could edit (a click on an empty spot, several elements, a mix of items):
its content layout used QLayout::SetMaximumSize, and an empty vertical
layout's maximum height is 0. The other right-hand panels took the room,
and when an element was selected again the panels were split again from
their size hints, so the height the user had dragged the panel to was
lost (reported by ankostis in #1439).
With the default size constraint the panel keeps its height and stays
blank while there is nothing to edit. The element, wire, text and shape
editors draw the same: their screenshots in a 730-860 px tall panel are
pixel-identical before and after.
Test: tst_selectionpanelheight (on master the height goes from 560 to
19 px).

Every tr() source string in the code and the forms is now the English
text, and French is a translation (qet_fr.ts) like the other languages.
Generated, not hand-edited: master ef795a21e5 converted by
qet-en-source (harness 4c4ddc9).
3144 messages get an English source, 665 already had one, 0 left French; 8 shared-wording pairs disambiguated.
C++: 2904 literals in 233 files. Forms: 809 strings in 65 files. All 34 .ts files re-keyed; qet_fr.ts filled.
lupdate check: PASS. What each of 38 languages shows, old vs new: same 118266, English instead of French 38433, comment fallback 51, differences 0.
QETElementEditor, QETDiagramEditor and QETTemplateEditor already
persist their geometry via QSettings; none of the modal QDialog
subclasses did, so any dialog resized to see more of its content
(Search and Replace, Diagram properties, Export, ...) is back to its
default size the next time it's opened.
Adds QET::trackDialogGeometry(), one call at the end of each dialog
constructor (after any default resize()), following the same
restoreGeometry()/saveGeometry() pattern as the three editors above,
stored under [dialoggeometry] and keyed by class name by default. An
explicit key is used for PropertiesEditorDialog, a single class
templated over several unrelated wrapped editors, so they don't all
fight over one saved size.
Covers the 36 dialogs of the original change (#691) plus seven added
since: RenumberElementsDialog, MaterialEntryDialog, AiAssistantDialog,
DuplicateOffsetDialog, ImageTransparentColorDialog, PdfPagesDialog and
WiringListDialog.
Deliberately not touched: BackupDialog and ImageCropDialog, which
setFixedSize() themselves, and MaterialSelectionDialog, which already
restores its own size.
A size saved while the dialog sat partly off-screen is restored on
screen: restoreGeometry() moves it back inside the available screen
(checked: saved at 1502,972 on a 1600x1000 screen, reopened at 600,317).

Double-clicking a placed element (or right-click > "Éditer l'élément")
opens its properties via Element::editProperty(), which constructs a
PropertiesEditorDialog with a real parent (QApplication::activeWindow()).
On macOS, a QDialog that has both a parent and Qt::WindowModal set falls
back to Cocoa's automatic sheet presentation. Reports (and this
codebase's own existing workarounds) indicate this can render stuck
centered on screen, non-draggable, with symmetric resize -- rather than
a proper attached, movable window -- unlike Linux/X11 where the same
dialog behaves as a normal draggable QDialog.
Two other dialogs in this codebase already explicitly opt into the
correct macOS sheet presentation for this exact reason:
ElementDialog::setUpWidget() and DiagramPropertiesDialog's setup both do
setWindowModality(Qt::WindowModal);
#ifdef Q_OS_MACOS
setWindowFlags(Qt::Sheet);
#endif
PropertiesEditorDialog -- used for editing Element, QetShapeItem, and
DiagramImageItem properties, all reached via double-click on a diagram
item -- had neither this opt-in nor an opt-out, so it likely fell into
the same automatic-sheet behavior but without the explicit flag,
matching the reported "stuck centered, can't drag" symptom.
Fix: apply the same setWindowModality()/Q_OS_MACOS Qt::Sheet pattern
already used by the other two dialogs, in PropertiesEditorDialog's
constructor -- fixing all three call sites (element, shape, and image
property editing) at once, since they share this one dialog class.
Verified: clean rebuild, all three call sites (element.cpp,
qetshapeitem.cpp, diagramimageitem.cpp) recompiled and linked
successfully with no errors or warnings.
Not verified: the actual reported symptom is macOS/Cocoa-specific
window presentation behavior, which cannot be reproduced or confirmed
fixed in this Linux/Xvfb sandbox -- no macOS environment is available
here. Confidence rests on the exact same fix pattern already being
established and presumably working for two other dialogs in this
codebase for the identical class of problem.
