After that, guess my last change will be to make Abdel happy and
confine the nice-scrolling behaviour within the BufferView class, so to
avoid too many changes to TextMetrics (and the ParMetricsCache class).
Hi Tommaso,
While I am happy that you want to make me happy please don't do that
only for that. I certainly hope that I convinced you but I don't want to
force you on anything.
On a related note, in order to call a method when the GUI is "idle",
I'm using the QTimer::singleShot() method, with a delta_time of 0.
Do you think that would turn to be useful for other things as well ?
I mean, something like GuiView::doWhenIdle(this, &myMethod):
template<class T>
static GuiView::doWhenIdle(T *, bool (T::*)(void))
I suggest to implement this if there is a second need arising for that
(and I would not place that in GuiView but in GuiApplication). On a
related note we have WorkArea::scheduleRedraw() that was created for the
purpose of delayed screen updates (scheduled to happen at next cursor
blink). I guess you can something similar for the scrollbar updates. In
general I prefer explicit rather than implicit.
Abdel.
