I started adding things to a Draw namespace, but it somehow felt really
wrong seeing Draw::Rect and Draw::Bitmap, etc. So instead, let's rename
the library to LibGfx. :^)
As suggested by Joshua, this commit adds the 2-clause BSD license as a
comment block to the top of every source file.
For the first pass, I've just added myself for simplicity. I encourage
everyone to add themselves as copyright holders of any file they've
added or modified in some significant way. If I've added myself in
error somewhere, feel free to replace it with the appropriate copyright
holder instead.
Going forward, all new source files should include a license header.
Previously if more than one item was selected clicking on one of
them and dragging would de-select everything that is not the one that
was clicked on. Now, if more than one items are selected and there
is a mousedown it goes into a "mightdrag" state.
The user can then perform a drag, if they don't everything that is not
the item being clicked gets unselected in the mouseup event, mimicking
the previous behavior.
Previously we would consider anything in the large padded area around
each item to also be part of the item for mouse event purposes.
This didn't feel right when rubberbanding, so this patch factors out
the per-item rect computation into a get_item_rects() helper which can
then be used by the various functions that need it.
GApplication now has a palette. This palette contains all the system
theme colors by default, and is inherited by a new top-level GWidget.
New child widgets inherit their parents palette.
It is possible to override the GApplication palette, and the palette
of any GWidget.
The Palette object contains a bunch of colors, each corresponding to
a ColorRole. Each role has a convenience getter as well.
Each GWidget now has a background_role() and foreground_role(), which
are then looked up in their current palette when painting. This means
that you no longer alter the background color of a widget by setting
it directly, rather you alter either its background role, or the
widget's palette.
Color themes are loaded from .ini files in /res/themes/
The theme can be switched from the "Themes" section in the system menu.
The basic mechanism is that WindowServer broadcasts a SharedBuffer with
all of the color values of the current theme. Clients receive this with
the response to their initial WindowServer::Greet handshake.
When the theme is changed, WindowServer tells everyone by sending out
an UpdateSystemTheme message with a new SharedBuffer to use.
This does feel somewhat bloated somehow, but I'm sure we can iterate on
it over time and improve things.
To get one of the theme colors, use the Color(SystemColor) constructor:
painter.fill_rect(rect, SystemColor::HoverHighlight);
Some things don't work 100% right without a reboot. Specifically, when
constructing a GWidget, it will set its own background and foreground
colors based on the current SystemColor::Window and SystemColor::Text.
The widget is then stuck with these values, and they don't update on
system theme change, only on app restart.
All in all though, this is pretty cool. Merry Christmas! :^)
These fields are intended to carry the real meat of a drag operation,
and the "text" is just for what we show on screen (alongside the cursor
during the actual drag.)
The data field is just a String for now, but in the future we should
make it something more flexible.
This bitmap is displayed alongside the dragged text underneath the
mouse cursor while dragging.
This will be a perfect fit for dragging e.g files around. :^)
This patch enables basic drag&drop between applications.
You initiate a drag by creating a GDragOperation object and calling
exec() on it. This creates a nested event loop in the calling program
that only returns once the drag operation has ended.
On the receiving side, you get a call to GWidget::drop_event() with
a GDropEvent containing information about the dropped data.
The only data passed right now is a piece of text that's also used
to visually indicate that a drag is happening (by showing the text in
a little box that follows the mouse cursor around.)
There are things to fix here, but we're off to a nice start. :^)
Before bringing up the context menu, clicking...
- ...on an already selected item leaves selection alone
- ...on an unselected item makes it the only selected item
- ...outside any item clears the selection
Also, use the model_column() internally for selection as well as for
painting to keep things consistent.
Note that we always fire the on_context_menu_request hook, even if you
didn't click on an item. In those cases, you get a GModelIndex().
