So far, clicking on a link from the Markdown/HTML preview Web::PageView did
nothing - now we pass that link to Desktop::Launcher, which will then
open it in Browser, FileManager, another TextEditor instance etc.
Since the vast majority of message boxes should be modal, require
the parent window to be passed in, which can be nullptr for the
rare case that they don't. By it being the first argument, the
default arguments also don't need to be explicitly stated in most
cases, and it encourages passing in a parent window handle.
Fix up several message boxes that should have been modal.
This patch adds a PreviewMode enum with the following values:
- None
- Markdown
- HTML
This makes it a bit more logical to implement exclusive behavior.
During app teardown, the Application object may be destroyed before
something else, and so having Application::the() return a reference was
obscuring the truth about its lifetime.
This patch makes the API more honest by returning a pointer. While
this makes call sites look a bit more sketchy, do note that the global
Application pointer only becomes null during app teardown.
Attempting to open a non-existent file from the command line should not
fail, it should just open a new text document with that name. Note that
the file is not created until you actually save it.
And move canonicalized_path() to a static method on LexicalPath.
This is to make it clear that FileSystemPath/canonicalized_path() only
perform *lexical* canonicalization.
This works by hooking into the change notifications from the TextEditor
widget and parsing the document content as markdown, and generating an
HTML document from it which is displayed using LibWeb.
This will make it a bit easier to write man pages! :^)
This patch adds GUI::Action::create_checkable() helpers that work just
like the existing create() helpers, but the actions become checkable(!)
Clients are no longer required to manage the checked state of their
actions manually, but instead they will be checked/unchecked as needed
by GUI::Action itself before the activation hook is fired.
This allows us to construct menus in a more natural way:
auto& file_menu = menubar->add_menu("File");
file_menu.add_action(...);
Instead of the old way:
auto file_menu = GUI::Menu::construct();
file_menu->add_action(...);
menubar->add_menu(file_menu);
We also clean up some old references to the old G prefixed GUI classes
This also fixes a potential bug with using: C_OBJECT_ABSTRACT(GAbstractButton)
instead of C_OBJECT_ABSTRACT(AbstractButton)
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. :^)
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. :^)
I've been wanting to do this for a long time. It's time we start being
consistent about how this stuff works.
The new convention is:
- "LibFoo" is a userspace library that provides the "Foo" namespace.
That's it :^) This was pretty tedious to convert and I didn't even
start on LibGUI yet. But it's coming up next.
