The link support means that an object can now appear in more than one
places, and even inside a document different from its own. This patch
adds support for in-place editing, meaning that the object can be edited
at correct place regardless where it is.
See [here](https://git.io/fjPIk) for more info about the relavent APIs.
This patch includes two example of modifications to support in-place
editing. One is the ViewProviderDragger, which simply adds the dragger
node to editing root node by calling
View3DInventorViewer::setupEditingRoot(dragger). The other much more
complex one is ViewProviderSketch which calls setupEditingRoot(0) to
transfer all its children node into editing root. ViewProviderSketch
also includes various modifications to command invocation, because we
can no longer assume the active document is the owner of the editing
object.
This patch also includes necessary modification of the 'Show' module to
support in-place editing.
===============================================================================================
Group creation:
- complex geometries (consisting of several geometry elements and constraints) have been rewritten to use python list (one command call for all geometries and constraints)
- Ellipse ExposeInternalGeo as group creation of geometries and constraints
To construction mode creation:
- addGeometry python and SketchObject functions modified to take an additional optional parameter "construction" to create the geometry/geometries directly as construction.
In addition to the shorter form, this helps generate less amount of onChange propagation and Redraws.
- all the geometry creation commands in CommandCreateGeo.cpp have been rewritten to use the new construction argument. This includes modifying the regular polygon script to
take a new optional parameter to create geometry as construction in addGeometry.
- special care is taken in group creation not make construction points
- Show/hide internal geometry implemented with this option.
To solving:
- the solve previously included after every geometry addition (when in no Update, e.i. no Recompute mode) has been removed and each Gui::Command calls either an UpdateActive
for recompute or a Solve in no Update mode. This is behaviour is less intrusive and uniform with group creation.
Bug fixes and redrawing reduction:
- Fixes the CheckId exception problem. The solution also helps further remove redraws during creation of complex geometry (e.g. Slot)
- Fixes touching the sketch by only opening it.
- Code clean up.
