Issue 47

* Fixed the loading of chm documents (avoids crashes)
* Improved performance by creating text page/object rects only on first generatePixmap call
* Code cleanup

Fix a couple of crash bugs.

There was a problem with documents that have Story, but no synopsis (TOC). There was also a double delete problem - crash on exit or load of a second doc.

Also add in support for "Category" metadata.

Replace Mac newlines with Unix newlines, and the problem of 100% CPU utilization with the first connection disappeared. Credits go to Reinhold and Modestas.

Don't show a passive popup when the network is unreachable, as we already show this situation by the "dunno" icon and now also mention it in the tooltip

Don't display "Last updated on ..." but "Latest data from ..." to make it clear that the weather data is from the given time, and not only fetched at this time.

- Tutorial starts immediately after switching to tutorial mode (and no anymore only with the start of the next game).
- Big clean-up in the class "KMainWindow".

Temporary fix suggested by Cyril Bailly, to cut cpu usage during intro animation in half, while we wait for QGV in 4.3.

Add an implementation of CORDIC (sin and cos algorithm). This should stress test the basic operations, function calls and array lookups.

And yes, I know implementing fixed point on top of the javascript floating point is stupid but I just ported an existing C implementation of CORDIC.

Add a state (UML 2.0) in the activity diagram: final state.

Add a new widget in the activity diagram: expansion region.

Implemented addition of new toolviews to the area. This means you can have several konsoles opened, several filemanagers, several project managers, etc, etc.

Add the Pin Widget to the activity diagram (UML 2.0)

Attachment 19796 from Antoine Dopffer adds code generation for UniAssociation
in C++and Java. I modified the patch for role B as described in comment #8.
Many thanks Antoine for your work.

(1) Rename "Day Duration" calculator module to "Almanac", since it includes much more than just the length of the day

(2) Simplify UI of "Equinoxes and Solstices" module, and make it work.
You don't have to select an Equinox/Solstice anymore, the module show the time/date of occurence for all four events of the given year, and also shows the duration of each season in days.

TODO: Right now, the seasonal names (Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter) assume the northern hemisphere. I'm considering adding a checkbox for this to allow users to switch to Southern hemisphere names.

Restore ability to change the projectin system used to render the map.
Apparently at some point, the internal names used for actions by KActionCollection stopped being available as the objectName() of the action. So my use of "sender()->objectName()" in slotMapProjection() stopped working.

I'm now comparing the sender() object itself to actionCollection()->action("action_name")

Planets calculator module:
+ more UI improvements: Replaced Long/Lat boxes with a Location button, replaced separate Date and Time boxes with a Date/Time edit.

+ Changing the location or date now updates the positional data

+ Fill in the positional data when the module is first opened, using the default selected planet (Mercury).

TODO: the heliocentric ecliptic coordinates are blank for the Moon.

Improvements to the WordQuiz import filter. Now activated also for KVocTrain.

Work on a Pauker import filter. Does not work yet due to the compressed format.

Work on import filters. The Pauker filter now works well.

Remove support for obsolete file formats (.lex, .vcb).

added (still incomplete) undo support.

Hellenic (Greek) keyboard file and lessons for Ktouch
Thanks to Antonis

added rightToLeft support.

Add document synopsis for XPS.

I don't have a lot of documents that actually have a document structure - it is optional in XPS. In fact, I did this code on just one file - the XPS 1.0 spec itself.

libkdcraw from trunk : backport last dcraw implementation "8.60" : the old noise reduction algorithm used with 8.54 version have been remplaced by a wavelet algorithm witch is more intuitive, more easy to use (just one threshold setting) and very powerfull.

Kipi-plugins RAWConverter from svn trunk is fixed.
The patch to use libkdcraw with current implementation of digiKam have been updated :

<a href="http://digikam3rdparty.free.fr/misc.tarballs/libkdcrawdigikamport.patch">http://digikam3rdparty.free.fr/misc.tarballs/libkdcrawdigikamport.patch</a>;

Added support for drag and drop images on the kbfx button

implement heuristic cyr encoding detection for konqueror (detects cp1251, koi8u and dos866). _real_ sites that mislead my algorithm are welcome!:). the next step is to make it available to kmail, kate and friends

Allow to install/view fonts without needing to supply absolute filepath.
Allow to install fonts from Urls.

Make the functions in the search bar work (mostly), here is a status:

[x] case sensitive (was working already.)
[x] whole words (like in 3.5, add \b at the ends of the pattern.
[x] regular expression (if not enabled, the pattern used is passed through QRegExp::excape(). Search is not performed unless the pattern is valid.)
[x] from cursor (begin in the proper place IMO, this should be enabled pr default.)
[/] selection only (when enabled, the search is not incremental and you have to press the RETURN key to perform the search. This is because the result is selected, and as such the selection is moved. We could store the original selection to work around this, and eventually highlight it differently. thoughts about this is wellcome.)
[/] highlight all (all matches are found, and highlight added but not displayed or removed *visually* again EVER. read kwrite-devel from today for the entertaining story ;). Code-wise, the highlight are removed when a new search is initiated, this should be subject to discussion as well, maybe we should provide a way to unhighlight it, or do it in other/more events (hiding the search bar comes to mind.))

TODO: Currently search is always performed when RETURN/ENTER keys are pressed, and this is wrong when the incremental searching is active (becomes like find next). A possible fix is comparing the potential pattern to that in the regex.

In addition, I have made this small improvement: When searching incrementally and you get no match, the non-matching string is selected in the pattern entry, so that you just overwrite it with the next keypress.

Happy searching :-)

* KJob: added signals (and implementation) for suspending and resuming
* Adapted code to this change on KJob
* Interface (and adaptor) for Observer. We hope we can forget Observer next week, yeah adaptor should have short life :)
* Better interface for UIServer (we get rid of unusued slots)
* Small changes on kioobservertest

- changed name to plugin. Now it is "symbolviewer"
- added Fortran parser
- added Perl parser
- added Python parser
- various fixes. ** Need to learn QMenu syntax to remove build time warnings

extend dvbhw to supply additional information that information is stored in the device name atm
(e.g. /dev/dvb/adaptor<x>/<name><y>)

adjust the hal backend to the extended dvbhw
yeah - the implementation is a bit hacky at certain places ;)
sorry kevin that i couldn't implement the adapter parsing yet :-/

NetworkManager support comes to Solid (albeit slowly).

Implement wireless state getter/setter, manager state getter/setter, deviceAdded/Removed signals

Skeleton NetworkInterface implementation

New facility to name enums, or to use externally defined enums.
New option to allow enum element names to be given a prefix in code.
New option to use enum types for accessor return values and for manipulator arguments.

These options are enabled by use of the new option "UseEnumTypes" in .kcfgc, and <choices name="EnumName" prefix="Prefix_"> arguments. See README.dox.

Update pdf parser to work on more pdf files, export more embedded files and run faster.

Don't let progress windows steal focus. Especially those from kontact with a kolab resource are annoying since they are triggered by a user action, but even in general it's good if they don't steal focus.

remove isearch, the normal kate search is no a bar, providing isearch in a much better way than this plugin ever did, beside the problems with xmlgui + the extra toolbar it creates...

commit the beginning of making the runners pluggable, something Gael Beaudoin is working on.

temporarily move the runner class into libworkspace until a better home is made for it, but this lets Gael continue working at least.

runner.h is not installed, of course.

Add the NMNetwork class representing an IP network. Also split the properties returned by getProperties on a NM device into device and network properties, as NM returns them all together

beginnings of configuration dialog

add the runners that we know about (app and shell) and make some formatting fixes as we'll be copying the library style from now on in krunner

Add VideoRecordEffect for saving video captures.
Requires external lib to compile, see the videorecord.cpp.

Implemented often-requested changing of font colors for taskbar.

Details here:
<a href="http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde-devel&m=117145563500995&w=2">http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde-devel&m=117145563500995&w=2</a>;

implement distance() between gestures for recognition purposes

implemented non-standard but wide-spread caller property. Bug report
#132039. Was also filed against JSC, taking patch from there.

add a way for runners to return a list of possible matches: populating a KActionCollection with actions

these will be shown in the center panel of the dialog as the user types

this gives us two ways active: exact match on what the user has typed or by selecting one of a series of actions

add a runner for session switching. the idea is that when the key combo to switch sessions is invoked we'll just pull up the usual runner window with "new session" and the list of currently active sessions listed in the middle

- item change monitoring
- basic write support for the iCal file resource

Add change recording and replay for offline resources.

- bumping seconds between poll from 2 to 5. probably should make this a
configurable, but that would require new strings and I'm leery of that.
- cleaning up device opening logic for all-around betterness
- cleaning up logic so we don't try tempDevice when it's empty
- not logging multiple open failures to kpilot

Show TNEF attachments similar to real attachments in the message viewer.
Forwardport from kdepim enterprise branch.

ask service to reload config on config change signal via DCOP

fix bug 138282: add support for texlive documentation

experiment on recording events in krita (commit for keeping a trace of this, but it's definitively not the correct solution see <a href="http://wiki.koffice.org/index.php?title=Krita/Recording_and_Collaborative_working_Design">http://wiki.koffice.org/index.php?title=Krita/Recording_and_Collaborative_working_Design</a>; )

o Started to implement saving of shapes in flake to OpenDocument.

This is still work in progress so please be patient a bit longer to let the api take shape.

Reinstate a feature from 1.x. The expanding of the text-frame when the text does not fit.
This redesign has the following changes;
* The text is layouted before requesting a resize. Which means we are not guessing what the new size should be, we just add exactly what we need.
* Resizing a frame is limited to the page-margins. So it will not auto-resize outside the page-margins but will request a new page.

When opening or saving an encrypted document, KoDocument now remembers the password as long as it's open.

Initial structure for handling multiple input devices.
The idea here is that if a user uses both a mouse and a tablet she is free to do independent things with those two devices. So, paint with one and pan around with the other. All without any manual switching of tools.
Or, in the extreme case; having 2 users paint at the same time on using different input devices. Now if only I had a tablet to try this stuff myself ;)

add an "advanced editor", only capable of adding and removing filters (but those brushes would probably only brings death and destruction to anyone trying to use them :/ )

Colorspace Delivry System, we guarantee to deliver new colorspaces in less than one hour ! Lets introduce the XYZ (in 16bits) colorspace in krita !

introduce the notion of program, it might be the correct solution to the question on how to expose stuff to the user. Programs are basically in charge of transforming the parameters of the shape (wether it is dab or anything else) and of the coloring. Until then they were forced to appears as a list inside the dynamic brush, now they are independent, which means we can create more easily different type of programs and also more easily affects programs to differents shapes and coloring.

Make sure text elements w/o a duration are freezed
Multi line text fix and simple text flowing in region

I guess I can close the
<a href="http://homepages.cwi.nl/~media/SMIL/fiets/fiets.smil">http://homepages.cwi.nl/~media/SMIL/fiets/fiets.smil</a>;
case now :-)

Put star-color-changing options in config (not working yet). I wanted to use QLabels, as they look a bit nicer, but there's no clickable property for them.
And for some reason there's a space below the QFrame holding the stars that doesn't show up in Designer...don't know what's causing it. I'll look later, unless someone more experienced knows what's wrong and wants to fix it :-)

re-enable the gst10 engine in trunk

replaced Q3PopupMenu with QMenu
...and now video plays!
The historic 'first' Codeine/Video Player 2.0 is of course Yatta.
It doesn't paint very well, Qt3->Qt4 painting issue most likely. Not worth fixing, I'll be porting to phonon.

- We are Phonon-only now! :)
- Fix PlayPauseAction, of course I had to mix up playing/paused state
- Make the seek slider work again
- Add QString Noatun::formatDuration(int duration), formats durations in a way suitable for display (full l10n and i18n support, finally)
- prepare Noatun::Player to become exported via DBUS

You may now feel free to pick the colors of your stars :-) It won't work across Amarok sessions yet (and yes I know the defaults are ugly, I only have them that way for contrast reasons while I'm working on this...). Saving across sessions soon. Oh, also, you can't turn it off yet, but I'll fix that soon too :-)

First small step towards porting part of my music store interface branch over (while completely rewriting it in the process). Not even close to functional yet but should not break anything. Have disabled the Magnatune tab for now to avoid having too many tabs at once

initial port to Phonon

now it shows the first frame

YATTA!
It plays video with Phonon. Video is smooth and draws well.
Now for the hard part, get everything else to work.

install xmlgui files correctly.
now the progress bar is shown correctly.

Initial UI Changes
Because we use a QMainWindow now we should allow it to do layouting. Everything needs to be handled through it. Some things are disabled to get it to compile and show up.

Amarok 2 ui--codenamed legos-- now looks passable, next up is to make it work

add m4v (mpeg4) to the supported types
thanks for reporting!

Kwlan's main icon is only shown if no interface is monitored to save space in the tray.

Cleaned up the tray icons' context menus.

* fix some action stuff
* add icon for export function
* use klipper icon form oxygen (don't use our own copy)
* remove unused icons
* add delete action to main toolbar
* beautify main treewidget (enable animations, ...)* fix i18np (%n -> %1)

clean up the DCC code.DccTransferManager takes over the initiative of DCC control from Server.

start initial metalink suport. still not operational.
make the main multisegmentkio job a kjob derivated class
calculate the all segments speed using the slaveinterface.cpp funtion

Do not allow to import VPN connections without having an appropriate
plugin. Start Gnome VPN configuration applet when connection without
native plugin is being edited.

Update ICQ presence stuff. Now it's like AIM presence.
Now we can merge ICQ and AIM presence.

avdevice compiles again. Running is another completely different story...

Changes to the logging system :
- Prepend current date and time in log file for every line
- Keep track of last 10 log files (files are stored gzipped), should help us pinpoint tracker problems in the futurue

Adding AvatarSelectorDialog.

The basic foundation of AvatarManager/AvatarSelector is now complete. Now let's do some more polishing and make use of it everywhere in Kopete.

As an example, EditGlobalIdentityWidget has been ported to AvatarSelectorDialog.

Updatede to version 0.6.1.
- No main icon is shown if interface icons are shown
- support for hidden ssids (experimental)
- only available profiles can be selected (configurable option)

Merge ICQ/AIM Presence stuff and clean it.

Show Xtraz Status icons in contact list.
Add Xtraz Status icons from Miranda.
Add AIM overlay icon.

Split up tabs of infowdiget and move it to the bottom tab bar. This is part 1 of the GUI overhaul for 2.2.

Still need to find some icons for the peers, chunks and tracker tabs.

Apply Usability changes suggested by Celeste and Ellen

This is only applied on trunk (for now), because KDE 3.5 branch is string freezed.

Improve folder config dialog:
* rewrite all things from the old KGet and improve it
* respect the default folder config when adding a new download

All is working fine for me, but I have two small problems:
* saving the list does happen for now after every change. I got it not working with Apply / Ok buttons. That means that after a list change the Apply button is not enabled.
* KConfigDialogManager complains about for example buttons in the config dialog:
kdecore (KConfigDialogManager): Widget 'removeButton' (QPushButton) remains unmanaged.
Any hints would be welcome ;)

Part 2 of the GUI redesign for 2.2 :
- Ditch kmdi
- Use IDEAl stuff from KDevelop instead, with some slight modifications to adapt it to KT's needs
- Make sure stuff is properly greyed when no torrent is loaded

Implement own Xtraz status. Now we need GUI for it.
Remove Xtraz icon string from Presence and add Xtraz status.

new groupboxes

more nuno combos..., fix for partial mask fills, better scanline bg support

new icon, the 16x16 and 22x22 ver.

history icon in many sizes

adding idea for the manilla folder

temp player icons

playing with player icons

updating player icons. improved version from the one on the blog

updating next previous. now arrows are inside a sheet for 22x22 and 32x32

have a look to the trashbin. is the metal color ok? too dark? lemme know. danke bitte

Start integrating Kross.
This allows users to create themes using Python, Ruby or JS.

The Kross interface is disabled for now.
To activate it set m_useKross to true in the Karamba ctor.

added a from bar inherited example that uses kross.
@wirr Please look at the bottom of bar.py :)

Fix a few bugs to get A-Foto working

Add possibility to define the text color

Separate score and input indicator icons.

Fix zoomIn and zoomOut animations. Add animation when cards are added to a pile.

Add support for custom player colours

Another patch by Fela Winkelmolen.
* improved the support of custom player colors (now only the GUI part has to be done).
* AI re-enabled
* Fixed the FIXME that I added with my previous patch, now the input is again disabled when it's AI's turn.
* Added some code to let the AI wait a little before doing it's move
* Other

- GUI -> Small "goody": New SVG items in the GraphicsView displaying the interactions of laser rays with every ball the player is moving the mouse over (class KBBGraphicsItemInteractionInfo). This should help the player to understand how the game works.
- Some code clean-up in the class KBBGraphicsItemSet.

console now supports real tty access. added some notes to the header.

Major optimization of the code used by formatStyleKeywords().

In practice this makes the following cases a LOT faster:
* Opening a chat with large amounts of 'old' messages from history
* Browsing history in the chat window with alt-left/right
* Updating the chat window someone changes avatar
* Updating the chat window when switching style

Performance improvement initially is about 30% due to optimized
Kopete::Message::plainBody() code for determining whether the message is left-to-right or not.

Each subsequent call on the same messages will be even about 60% faster because the LTR value is cached.

In practice the code is unfortunately still quite slow, but the massive improvement is already quite noticable.

Reviewed and approved by Will, also tested against the unit tests.

* The QGL* classes were not being built by default, as a few years ago KDE didn't use OpenGL by default. So enable them by default now 3D is pretty standard.

This is the KDevelop-parser-derivative C++ semantics checker, to be integrated into the EBN at a later date.

added the great design from Aron Stansvik and ported the old stuff

Here we have the first addition of KAlgebra into kdeedu playground as some suggested. This is my first kde commit as well :).

Anyway, hope someone likes it and it can be useful anyhow.

Bye!

Remove the default frame around the KHTML part. Removes the ugly borders at the edge of the Konqueror window when browsing web pages.

let translators decide how this gets laid out should they wish to, as per the request of some of them.

also, use a '-' by default. nicer than ()s and ' ' doesn't work for enough people. so be it.

sync the control panel as well. now people who like to bitch at me instead of actually talk reasonably have one less thing to ruin my hour with.

One step closer to making KIO::Observer disappear. Moved most methods to the KIO::JobUiDelegate. Only remains newJob and actions handling.

Free of config.h (we have to get rid of config.h if we want to release 3 tarballs for kdebase one day...)

move kate to kdesdk, as said on core-devel
will more plugins into it soon, too

We need to better separate background-rendering code and settings, IMHO.
There's really no reason for kdm to compile code that is about the settings of desktop icons...

Poor man's port of private API.

ksocks.h will be removed from installation soon. Since today isn't Monday, I won't remove the file yet -- it would case brakage.

This will cause the KNode and KDict builds to give out warnings now.

redesigned the desktop class.
KService is no longer appart of desktop as it was only ever used directly after creating a new instance.

While this does feature a slimmer desktop class it also features a broken combo box and a crash on edit after you move the start on location!2 bugs were fixed as they don't seem to be affected anymore in KDE4 as they were in KDE3

remove screensaver integration that moved to krunner

export the /ScreenSaver dbus interface on org.kde.screensaver so it's stable in the future.

until we move to org.freedesktop.screensaver of course ;)

this seems to be a wild hack, but as a matter of fact kio crashes when a kfile plugin provides 2 mimetypes (hover a jpg in trash:/ in KDE 3 and you will see 2 "servicetype trash not found" and 2 "servicetype system not found" and one ASSERT: count() == 1 in kfilemetainfo.cpp (975)

The problem is: this assert is fatal in KDE4, so I think this shouldn't do such wild hacks (what mimetype is "trash"?)

move dmctl* into libkworkspace. every app that was using this up until now compiled in their -own copy- of this code. i suppose that is one way to achieve code reuse ;)

we still dont' install the header, however.

i18n fixes. Note: %n is no longer used in plural strings.

Get rid of kdemm engine.. its out of date and superceded by phonon engine

Make it nicer
<a href="/issues/2007-02-25/files/snapshot3sb8.png">http://img114.imageshack.us/my.php?image=snapshot3sb8.png</a>;

Initial import of Codeine 1.0.1-3. Pretty much as-is, I removed index.cache.bz2 and the scons and po directories.

I will be porting this to CMake, KDE 4 and Phonon (currently its Scons, KDE 3 and Xine respectively).

In one of mxcl's fits of coding madness, he #defined the letter e. Argh, what terrible consequences this had.

Turn the magnatune the right way up in the svn as well (multiple icons in a single file?!) </peeve mode=pet>

Create a branch to work on refactoring amarok's UI

Remove multithreaded Qt-only transfer plugin. We have now a better KIO based one. As discussed with Manolo Valdes.

update to recent libiris version from psi svn
also clean up moc part in CMakeLists.txt a little bitit now compiles and links fine on win32

Ported some more stuff to KDE 4, libktorrent is around 90 % ported now

Use Keep Data and Remove Data instead of Yes and No in message box asking to delete incomplete data

Finally commit the new WSDL/XSD schema update from Javier Kohen.
Thanks for your work on documenting Windows Live Messenger services.

I asked Nuno Povoa to also do a 20 second song version that could be used for kinda tv comercials and general kde presentations. he came out with a 1.15 song that is quite good in my opinion for a frist try :)

some of the stuff i had around
