... except Experimental.h, but see preceding commit.
This is especially important in the header files.
Be sure there are no quiet changes of meaning when a header file is included
in a different context, not having seen Audacity.h. Rather include Audacity.h
even if redundantly.
Also, in some header files, move more inside the include-guard #ifdef-#endif
pair.
... Reimplement the ESC key handling in TrackPanel and time ruler on all
operating systems so that it does not rely on the focused window, but instead
uses the application-wide event filter.
This includes reversion of 9491605cfc8a7d60117365884fd494996b5ebbaf
... except Audacity.h; and in no others.
Do so even if Experimental.h gets multiply included, as in both the .h and
.cpp files.
This makes it easier to do a text scan to be sure there are no unintended quiet
changes of meaning because of omission of Experimental.h when the flag is
an enabled one.
Also move inclusions of Experimental.h earlier.
Also don't require Experimental.h to be preceded by Audacity.h to define
EXPERIMENTAL_MIDI_OUT correctly.
... instead define new base classes in src/commands that those other
windows can inherit. The classes have nothing but a virtual destructor. This
lets CommandManager use dynamic_cast to detect the special windows.
See commits cbfde23 and 68e4bf6 which added the #include directives
... keep the name, but change the value to be what it really says:
the proper width of the track control panel, agreeing with the hit-test
area, NOT including the left margin
And change places where the constant was used, adding the margin back again.
... Also rewrote some of the existing event handling so all events from
TrackList are of the same, custom event class, and distinguishing addition
from resizing events, though this distinction is not yet used
... To be reused with the Ruler too.
The new base class does all the handling of hit tests on cells and managing
of UIHandles, and keyboard events and focus.
It has no knowledge of tracks -- that all resides in overriding functions in
TrackPanel.
Still to do, of course, is reorganizing drawing with callbacks to the cell
objects.
Motivation:
1. The text boxes in the label track are not fully accessible for users of screen readers, and I don't think that they can be made to be fully accessible using the accessibility API used by wxWidgets. When such an edit box becomes the focus, this is not announced, and for NVDA users typed characters are not echoed.
2. Provides a work around for bugs 1778 (cannot type diacritics into text label), and 1804 (Windows: Labels do not accept IME (Chinese/Japanese) input).
Fix: Provide an option for a dialog for entering the name. The text box in the dialog is accessible for screen readers. On windows the text box receives wm_keydown and wm_char messages and so is a work around for bug 1804. Being a standard text box, it will presumably be a work around for bug 1778.
1. There is a new option in track behaviors: "Use dialog for the name of new label", which is off by default.
2. When using the commands "Add label at selection" and "Add label at playback position", when the dialog closes, focus is returned to the track which was the focus before the dialog opened. I think this is more convenient for users of screen readers.
This is a squash of 50 commits.
This merges the capabilities of BatchCommands and Effects using a new
AudacityCommand class. AudacityCommand provides one function to specify the
parameters, and then we leverage that one function in automation, whether by chains,
mod-script-pipe or (future) Nyquist.
- Now have AudacityCommand which is using the same mechanism as Effect
- Has configurable parameters
- Has data-entry GUI (built using shuttle GUI)
- Registers with PluginManager.
- Menu commands now provided in chains, and to python batch.
- Tested with Zoom Toggle.
- ShuttleParams now can set, get, set defaults, validate and specify
the parameters.
- Bugfix: Don't overwrite values with defaults first time out.
- Add DefineParams function for all built-in effects.
- Extend CommandContext to carry output channels for results.
We abuse EffectsManager. It handles both Effects and
AudacityCommands now. In time an Effect should become a special case of
AudacityCommand and we'll split and rename the EffectManager class.
- Don't use 'default' as a parameter name.
- Massive renaming for CommandDefinitionInterface
- EffectIdentInterface becomes EffectDefinitionInterface
- EffectAutomationParameters becomes CommandAutomationParameters
- PluginType is now a bit field.
This way we can search for related types at the same time.
- Most old batch commands made into AudacityCommands.
The ones that weren't are for a reason. They are used by mod-script-pipe
to carry commands and responses across from a non-GUI thread to the GUI
thread.
- Major tidy up of ScreenshotCommand
- Reworking of SelectCommand
- GetPreferenceCommand and SetPreferenceCommand
- GetTrackInfo and SetTrackInfo
- GetInfoCommand
- Help, Open, Save, Import and Export commands.
- Removed obsolete commands ExecMenu, GetProjectInfo and SetProjectInfo
which are now better handled by other commands.
- JSONify "GetInfo: Commands" output, i.e. commas in the right places.
- General work on better Doxygen.
- Lyrics -> LyricsPanel
- Meter -> MeterPanel
- Updated Linux makefile.
- Scripting commands added into Extra menu.
- Distinct names for previously duplicated find-clipping parameters.
- Fixed longstanding error with erroneous status field number which
previously caused an ASSERT in debug.
- Sensible formatting of numbers in Chains, 0.1 not 0.1000000000137
... Maybe a good feature idea, but the implementation pollutes the code in
too many places.
It's a special case of the more general idea of many-to-one associations
between screen rectangles and track objects. More generalized ways to
accommodate that should be sought.
- AutomationCommands replaces GetAllMenuCommands, and can provide
information about menus, buttons and toolbars to a script.
- BatchCommands can now return textual results to a script.
- There's a new GUID for mod-script-pipe and it is included in the .sln.
