This patch removes size policies and preferred sizes, and replaces them
with min-size and max-size for each widget.
Box layout now works in 3 passes:
1) Set all items (widgets/spacers) to their min-size
2) Distribute remaining space evenly, respecting max-size
3) Place widgets one after the other, adding spacing in between
I've also added convenience helpers for setting a fixed size (which is
the same as setting min-size and max-size to the same value.)
This significantly reduces the verbosity of widget layout and makes GML
a bit more pleasant to write, too. :^)
This is a follow up to #2936 / d3e3b4ae56aa79d9bde12ca1f143dcf116f89a4c.
Affected programs:
- Applications: Browser (Download, View source, Inspect DOM tree, JS
console), Terminal (Settings)
- Demos: Cube, Eyes, Fire, HelloWorld, LibGfxDemo, WebView,
WidgetGallery
- DevTools: HackStudio, Inspector, Profiler
- Games: 2048, Minesweeper, Snake, Solitaire
- Userland: test-web
A few have been left out where manual positioning is done on purpose,
e.g. ClipboardManager (to be close to the menu bar) or VisualBuilder (to
preserve alignment of the multiple application windows).
Since the returned object is now owned by the callee object, we can
simply vend a ChildType&. This allows us to use "." instead of "->"
at the call site, which is quite nice. :^)
This patch adds two new API's:
- WidgetType& GUI::Window::set_main_widget<WidgetType>();
This creates a new main widget for a window, assigns it, and returns
it to you as a WidgetType&.
- LayoutType& GUI::Widget::set_layout<LayoutType>();
Same basic idea, creates a new layout, assigns it, and returns it to
you as a LayoutType&.
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.
