Previously, the arc was entirely created in the GuiCommand
definition. The code to create only the arc is placed inside
a module so that the function can be used in scripting
from the terminal, without a graphical interface.
Inside the class `_DraftLink` the `onDocumentRestored` function
tests for the existence of the old attribute `useLink`. If it is
present, it uses it to define the new variable name `use_link`.
This is done use Python naming conventions.
The old `useLink` is deleted so it is not longer saved
together with the object when the document is saved.
It replaces the older `Draft_Array` command, and provides
a task panel to select the properties, similar to the
`Draft_PolarArray` and `Draft_CircularArray` commands.
It can also create `App::Links` directly from this task
panel, so it also replaces the `Draft_LinkArray`
introduced by the LinkMerge.
As discussed in the previous request, the icon
is saved as Plain SVG, meaning that Inkscape-specific tags
are removed. This is better for compatibility purposes
for use with other SVG editors and viewers.
The linear and radial dimensions use the same Proxy class,
but the angular dimension uses a different Proxy class.
To recognize quickly in the tree view the different
types of dimensions, we provide a new icon.
The icon is inspired on the `Draft_Dimension.svg` and
`TechDraw_AngleDimensions.svg` icons.
Also other small fixes: cleanup for getting the icon
of the workbench; we don't need to test for PySide because
it should already exist as part of the system
for the entire interface to work; cleanup of the printing
functions.
while fixing a SVG export issue for techDraw I noticed that some SVG files have program-dependent (and thus not clean) code in it. These are traces of the programs Sodipodi and Inkscape, like e.g. this line:
inkscape:export-filename="/home/yorik/PartDesign_Groove.png
This is unnecessary and FC should not use program-dependent code in the SVG but use instead plain SVG strictly following the SVG specification.
This PR transforms the few affected SVGs to a plain version.
The `Taskview` mode (value 1) is set fixed in `DraftGui.py`
even if the widget shows the other value `Toolbar` (value 0),
as this mode is unmaintained and obsolete.
At the same time, clarify the behavior with a new tooltip.
There was semantic change of the division operator ‘/’
from python2 to python3. This fix makes the circular array
work with python2 correctly.
See PEP 238
The translate mechanism in Draft depends on the `QtCore`
`translate` function. This is defined in its own module
so that `DraftGui.py` is not as big and hard to manage.
Other modules in Draft can import the translate function
without needing to import the entire interface, which
often causes errors and circular dependencies.
We can import `QtCore.QT_TRANSLATE_NOOP` at the top level
in `Draft.py` because it does not depend on the graphical
interface.
Many auxiliary tools used by `Draft.py` can be defined
in another module. Many functions are moved to this module
so that `Draft.py` isn't as big and hard to maintain.
The following is a list o functions that were moved:
`get3DView`, `autogroup`, `dimSymbol`, `dimDash`,
`removeHidden`, `formatObject`, `getSelection`,
`getSelectionEx`, `select`, `loadTexture`.
Moreover, many of these functions were renamed
to comply better with PEP8 guidelines,
particularly the use of `snake_case`. For example,
`get3DView` is now `get_3d_view`.
Aliases are provided for the old names so that
other functions and classes that depend on these
won't break. The new names should be the official
programming interface, while the old names
should be deprecated at some point in the future.
