Recently, when chasing the font size differences between the wayland and xcb Qt backends, I ended up normalizing on the wayland sizing when bypassing the backend's font metrics calculation (#272). Unfortunately, the wayland backend was not rendering the font sizes correctly, and it was a mistake to duplicate its behavior.
* Assume a virtual DPI of 72 pixels/in instead of 96 when compulting font size
- Based on testing, this produces the correct font size
- Updated reference labels.
* No longer need to scale fonts when importing glabels-3 files.
- The glabels-3 font sizes were correct afterall! (#306)
- No longer need to compensate for scale factor in unit tests when importing glabels-3 files.
- Add generic full-page templates. (This feature from 3.4 was missing)
- Also add generic half-page, quarter-page, and envelope templates.
- Add several more common envelope sizes to page-sizes.xml
- Qt print backend does not need pwg_size.
- Replace with pwg_class, to distinguish between ISO and NA sizes
This commit partially addresses issues in #296. Due to the fact that glabels-3
and glabels-4 use different underlying technologies for rendering text, a
pixel-perfect import can probably never be fully achieved.
This commit focuses on small adjustments to imported text objects to approximate
the visual appearance of these objects.
- glabels-3 rendered text at 75% of stated font size, compensate by adjusting
font size of imported object.
- Text boxes behave differently in glabels-4 than in glabels-3. In glabels-4,
text boxes must be of a fixed size, so compensate when a variable sized
box (when w=0 and/or h=0) is detected and fix the size to the natural text
size.
- In glabels-3, the fixed margin size (3pt) was not used in the text baseline
calculations. Compensate by adjusting vertical position of imported text
object.
* Bulk replaced tabs with spaces
* Bulk removed trailing whitespace from lines
* Replaced c-style comments with c++-style comments in file banners
* Replace nested namespace definitions with single concise definitions (C++17), this keeps the indentation more manageable
* Cleanup ordering and spacing of include directives
* Bulk renaming of header file extensions from '.h' to '.hpp'.
* Update CODING-STYLE.md
* Update target_compile_features from cxx_std_11 to cxx_std_20.
* Refresh .clang-format file. Still needs a lot of tweaking.
- This originally showed up as fonts rendering differently on X11 than Wayland. (#230)
- Setting font size in points should be device and back end independent, however the same exact font face and size, on
the same machine, sometimes results in different font metrics between the xcb and wayland Qt back ends.
- Setting font size in pixels, assuming a virtual DPI of 96 pixels/inch, results in consistent font metrics and rendering
between these back ends. Furthermore, this virtual DPI works for either on-screen or hi-res printer QPainter contexts.
- This virtual DPI seems to work correctly with some limited testing with Windows and MacOS.
- Add rendering tests to build-tests CI script.
- Updates to project and desktop metadata in preparation for flatpak packaging
- These updates are independent of flatpack
- This commit unmingles the actual flatpack packaging from #255
- Moved detailed version information from ReportBugDialog to Version::details()
- Added QPA Platform information to verbose version information
- Added Qt version to detailed version information
- Added `-V` command line option to glabels-qt and glabels-batch-qt
- Simplified some strings to not include unnecessary markup.
- Fix translator comments so that they actually make it to glabels_C.ts file
- Reconciled the style of these comments.
- Added translator comments
- Made greater use of smart pointers, eliminating many instances of manual memory management
- Do not use pointers at all for many non-polymorphic classes
- Assorted other code cleanup
- Update libzint support for 2.15 as new baseline version, removing support for earlier versions, avoiding '#ifdef'-hell
- Based on #186

- Allow origin to be either at the top-left corner or center of label (#174)
- For non-rectangular labels (cd, round, etc.) the origin will still
always be at the center of the label.
- User controllable grid spacing
Added drop interface for image files, images, and text, dragged from other applications. (#153,#223)
- Lock aspect ration on new image objects by default
- Communicate context menu click location to paste actions
- Added side pane for product preview and information
- Product selection is done with a separate pushbutton, so that user gets a
chance to preview the complete product information before committing to the
selection
- Supports two view modes: Grid View and List View
- View mode is automatically stored in Settings, so it will default to the
user's prefered mode
- Should address most concerns in #109 and #142
Use QFileInfo::completeBaseName() instead of QFileInfo::baseName() in
Model::shortName(). This was already the case when building list of
recent labels in MainWindow.
- New baseline minimum platform is Ubuntu 22.04
- Qt6 requires at least 6.2
- some deprecations may be flagged on later versions (e.g. 6.8)
- CMake requires at least 3.22
- Include build-tests.yml github action to validate builds on mulitple platforms
- QtTest is no longer optional since it easily comes along for the ride with Qt
- Replaced QStringRef in model::SubstitutionField with simple ParserState class
- Removed deprecations up to Qt 6.2

According to the spec., valid syntax for merge field names is determined
by the merge source with a couple of minor exceptions. Current text backends
allow any printable characters, so the SubstitutionField parser now accepts
any printable characters.
- Modifies printing model to be similar to glabels-3.x.
- Allow simple projects to print by-the-page (#51)
- Added collated vs uncollated document merges
- Added ability to separate merge groups by page
- Updated man pages
- Updated misc developer documentation
- use "shared" pointer between Model and undo/redo instances
- adds missing initializers to Merge and Text classes
- adds checkpoints for mouse resize, barcode, and image reset.
- renames the position dialog checkpoint from Move -> Position to differentiate it from a mouse move.
- adds the Undo/Redo action descriptions to the menu items.
- adds unit tests for the Merge and Model change, and for ColorNode, RawText and TextNode.
