I've implemented three states for what to do if no selection:
0 - Grey out (no longer used)
1 - Auto-select
2 - Give the warning message and try again.
This fix works by detecting whether the focus window is the TrackPanel, in which case all keys are handled normally. If it isn't the TrackPanel, then the problematic keys do not get sent to our own CommandHandler and proceed on to wxWidgets.
A problem that then follows is that the menu accelerators (which normally don't get a look in) may then convert the event to a menu event and stop it going any further.So it does not get to the focus window.
The fix/workaround for that is to NOT provide accelerators for up, down, left and right arrow in the menus. I'd much rather be able to turn off those accelerators completely, yet still show them to users as hints.
In addition, the Xcode project can now build against the 10.6
or 10.7 SDKs. All that is needed is to change the SDK version
and the other settings will change automatically.
... for functions in final classes.
override is like const -- it's not necessary, but it helps the compiler to
catch mistakes.
There may be some overriding functions not explicitly declared virtual and I did
not identify such cases, in which I might also add override.
... Should have no effect on generated code, except perhaps some slight faster
virtual function calls. Mostly useful as documentation of design intent.
Tried to mark every one of our classes that inherits from another, or is a
base for others, or has abstract virtual functions, and a few others besides.
David has been trying to beat it into my thick skull that the
command manager should use the system created key up event rather
than generating it, but I just wasn't getting it.
Actually, the documentation for the OSX method I needed to use
to get at the key event before the menus did said that a key up
event couldn't be captured on 10.6 (the oldest we support). But,
testing showed that it can be, so I was able to do what David was
suggesting.
I'm pretty sure this gets all of the currently known issues, including
the SHIFT+M not working, the Play buttons responding to SHIFT and CTRL,
the ESC key canceling drags, and I'm pretty sure it even fixes
but #784.
Several other issues were also fixed (hopefully ;-)).
This is a major change to accelerator handling and keyboard
capturing. Menu shortcuts, non-menu commands, label editing,
navigation, and basically anything else were you might use
the keyboard should be thoroughly tested.
It had been causing problems in Unity for a while now and they
were missing on OSX as well in wx3. So, the old menu Open/Close
method of hiding has been removed and replaced with an event
filter/monitor which looks for wxEVT_CHAR_HOOK events to pass
key events to the handler that has the keyboard captured.
With realtime preview, the keyboard user will need this to get
back and forth between the effect and the project window. Actualy,
the "problem" existed before this since the keyboard user couldn't
switch between project and Plot Spectrum windows.
The normal flags-based keyboard handling would not work since it
depends on the state of the project and requires a project window
to have the current focus.
In this new case, a modeless dialog may actually have the focus and
using the "switch window" key combo may happen in nearly any mode, like
while playing.
So, I "created" the concept of "meta" commands...ones that do not have
the restrictions mentioned above. The should be used sparingly and
you must be careful about what happens within their handlers.
I've made it where you can enable and disable via experimentals:
EXPERIMENTAL_REALTIME_EFFECTS
EXPERIMENTAL_EFFECTS_RACK
You will notice that, as of now, the only effects currently set up for
realtime are VSTs. Now that this is in, I will start converting the
rest.
As I start to convert the effects, the astute of you may notice that
they no longer directly access tracks or any "internal" Audacity
objects. This isolates the effects from changes in Audacity and makes
it much easier to add new ones.
Anyway, all 3 platforms can now display VST effects in graphical mode.
Yes, that means Linux too. There are quite a few VSTs for Linux if
you search for them.
The so-called "rack" definitely needs some discussion, work, and attention
from someone much better at graphics than me. I'm not really sure it should
stay in as-is. I'd originally planned for it to be simply a utility window
where you can store your (preconfigured) favorite effects. It should probably
revert back to that idea.
You may notice that this DOES include the API work I did. The realtime effects
were too tied to it and I didn't want to redo the whole thing. As I mentioned
elsewhere, the API stuff may or may not be very future proof.
So, let the critter complaints commence. I absolute KNOW there will be some.
(I know I'll be hearing from the Linux peeps pretty darn quickly. ;-))
This is part 1...
Provides some relief to the selection "hang"
This patch adds the ability for the keyboard based commands (like cursor left,
extend selection right, etc.) to know when the key has been released.
When the patch is applied the current state is saved only when the key is
released and not every time it repeats.
Here's an example of the difference it makes.
This video show the selection "hang", but also watch the CPU usage. All I'm
doing is pressing SHIFT+RIGHT ARROW.

This one is the same thing bug with the patch applied. Notice that the
selection "hang" no longer occurs and look at the CPU usage!
