This PR improves the behavior of the Draft grid:
* Options in the preferences: "Always show the grid" and "Show the grid during commands".
* The parameters are used for new views. In existing views the grid can be toggled either during a command or when no command is active.
* When switching to a different workbench all grids are hidden unless GridHideInOtherWorkbenches is set to `False`. This can be a Fine-tuning parameter IMO.
Notes:
* The defaultCameraHeight parameter becomes obsolete. It was only used in very specific circumstances.
* The code of PR #8818 becomes obsolete. It makes more sense to use `App.activeDraftCommand` instead of adding a `tool` argument to some functions. Will do some related cleanup later.
* Improved alignment for the related preference ui. The checkbox interaction has been fixed as well.
The poles in the resetTrackersBezier function are in the CS of the geometric parent of the curve. Before using `p = obj.getGlobalPlacement().multVec(p)` the nodes have to be translated to the CS of the curve. Otherwise the effects of the curve's Placement would be added twice. See discussion: https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD/pull/4889
the global coordinate system. They should therefore not be translated from the LCS to the GCS.
In new splitted addPoint methods, getObjectsInfo and the consequent checks have been removed and moved to main DraftEdit module in a new get_specific_object_info method.
This method returns the info for the selected object at a given position and the 3d Vector of the point clicked on the object.
The wrapper allows to call resetTrackers in the main module after the callback to the GuiTools is executed.
This is the last commit, many thanks to @matthijskooijman for having menthored me :)
I think it's helpful to have @matthijskooijman explanation on this use of the wrapper:
This defines a new wrapper function, that calls the original callback and then calls resetTrackers. Note that this creates a new function for every loop iteration, so each of these wrapper functions captures potentially different callback, self and obj values so things work as expected. Note I did something weird with the callback value there: Since functions like these capture a variable, not its value at the time of function definition, and loop variables like label and callback are a single variable shared between all loop iterations, capturing callback directly ends up with all wrappers calling the last callback (i.e. they all capture the same variable and by the time the wrappers are called, that variable will contain the last of the callbacks). This is commonly solved by using a default value in the function definition, since such a default value uses the value of the (in this case) callback variable, not capturing the variable.
get_edit_point_context_menu(self, edit_command, obj, node_idx)
get_edit_obj_context_menu(self, edit_command, obj, position)
that are called depending if the user is over an editpoint or over another part of the object.
This enable to start editing also without an user click event, by just calling the method and specifying the object and the edit point index.
It is used for alternative edit mode (alt_edit_mode) by arc context menu
LGTM identified an instance where a function was defined twice: in this
case, one version was intended to take a list of items and the second
version just a single item. Because they share the same name and number
of arguments, the second definition overrode the first. This causes no
problems in the current code because the version that takes a list is
never used. However, for consistency with the analogous
"globalize_vectors" and "globalize_vector" functions, the "localize*"
versions are changed to match that pattern. All calls in are
converted to the singular use.
As suggested by @Vanuan. and already implemented in new experimental BIM Wall: 1084a4b0a9
Draft: updated Draft Edit
thanks to the suggestions by @Vanuan
Draft: further bugfixing and improvements in Draft_Edit
Draft: moved Draft_Edit preview code into respective GuiTools
Started a general refactor to handle all the conversion between global and object coordinate system inside the main methods and just use object coordinates inside object functions.
