LibHTML will now use the palette colors for the default document background and
the text. As always, a page can override this default styling with CSS if it
really wants a specific color or style.
Fixes https://github.com/SerenityOS/serenity/issues/963
Using int was a mistake. This patch changes String, StringImpl,
StringView and StringBuilder to use size_t instead of int for lengths.
Obviously a lot of code needs to change as a result of this.
Before this patch, all of the excess spacing caused by line-height was
"padding" the line boxes below the text.
To fix this, we make line box fragments use the font height as their
height, and then let the inline layout algorithm adjust the Y positions
to distribute the vertical space.
In order for this to work nicely, I made the line box classes use float
instead of int for its geometry information.
Justification works by distributing all of the whitespace on the line
(including the trailing whitespace before the line break) evenly across
the spaces in-between words.
We should probably use floating point (or maybe fixed point?) for all
the layout metrics stuff. But one thing at a time. :^)
Basically the same exact fix as I did for replaced elements. There's no
point in inserting a line break at the start of a line if all you're
trying to achieve is make more horizontal space for something.
We currently hard-code the line height to 140% of the font glyph height
and this patch doesn't fix the hard-coding, but at least moves it out
of LayoutText and into StyleProperties where it can be re-used until
the day we go and do a proper implementation of CSS line-height. :^)
Before breaking the Text node contents into words, collapse all of the
whitespace into single space (' ') characters. This fixes broken
rendering of paragraphs with newlines in them. :^)
Instead of using string everywhere, have the CSS parser produce enum
values, since they are a lot nicer to work with.
In the future we should generate most of this code based on a list of
supported CSS properties.
Since LayoutText always inherits style, it shouldn't store any style of
its own. This patch adds a LayoutNodeWithStyle class to sit between
LayoutNode and everyone who wants to inherit from LayoutNode except
LayoutText :^)
Since LayoutText can never have children, we also know that the parent
of any LayoutNode is always going to be a LayoutNodeWithStyle.
So this patch makes LayoutNode::parent() return LayoutNodeWithStyle*.
Since LayoutText inherits all of its style information from its parent
Element anyway, it makes more sense to load the font at a higher level.
And since the font depends only on the style and nothing else, this
patch moves font loading (and caching) into StyleProperties. This could
be made a lot smarter to avoid loading the same font many times, etc.
There's no need for LayoutText to inherit from LayoutInline.
I had the wrong idea here: I was thinking that everything that can be
laid out inline should inherit from LayoutInline, but that's clearly
not sufficient for something like LayoutReplaced which can be laid out
in either way.
The default style for "a" tags now has { color: -libhtml-link; }.
We implement this vendor-specific property by querying the containing
document for the appropriate link color.
Currently we only use the basic link color, but in the future this can
be extended to remember visited links, etc.
This patch makes StyleProperties heap-allocated and ref-counted so that
a LayoutNode can be without one. The ref-counting also allows anonymous
blocks to share style with their parent block.
LayoutText never needs a StyleProperties, since text always inherits
style from its parent element. This is handled by style_properties().
This is not ideal, as refusing to break lines will easily overflow the
containing block, and we have no way of dealing with overflow yet.
But as long as you provide enough width, it does look nice. :^)
Font::width(string) will subtract one Font::glyph_spacing() from the
result, since we don't put any spacing after the last glyph.
This was messing up text layout here, since we assumed each glyph
width also included the glyph spacing.
Inline layout is now done by LayoutBlock. Blocks with inline children
will split them into line boxes during layout.
A LayoutBlock can have zero or more LineBox objects. Each LineBox
represents one visual line.
A LineBox can have any number of LineBoxFragment children. A fragment
is an offset+length into a specific LayoutNode.
To paint a LayoutBlock with inline children, we walk its line boxes,
and walk their fragments, painting each fragment at a time by calling
LineBoxFragment::render(), which in turn calls the LayoutNode via
LayoutText::render_fragment(). Hit testing works similarly.
This is very incomplete and has many bugs, but should make it easier
for us to move forward with this code.
LayoutText can't simply rely on its LayoutNode::rect() for hit testing.
Instead, we have to iterate over the individual runs and see if we're
hitting any of them.
Also, LayoutNode::hit_test() now always recurses into children, since
we can't trust the rect() to tell the truth (inline rects are wrong.)
Also remove the color values from the ComputedStyle object and get them
via StyleProperties instead.
At the moment, we only handle colors that Color::from_string() parses.
