This patch includes the actual implementation of Link, which is
implemented as an extension named LinkBaseExtension in App namespace,
and a full view provider ViewProviderLink in Gui. The reason of not
using ViewProviderExtension is because it need full control when
display, not just extending existing functionalities.
Please see [here](https://git.io/fjPue) for more details of the
implementation.
This patch also includes a set of link manipulation commands, and a
task panel for overriding geometry element colors.
Application:
* signalNewDocument, check the extra argument, isMainDoc, the decide
whether to create view of the new document. This is so that external
linked document can be opened in background without crowding the tab
list.
* slotDeleteDocument, calls Document::beforeDelete()
* slotActiveDocument, creates view if none, because external document
is now opened without view.
* onLastWindowClosed(), switch to next active document, and creates view
if none.
* send(Has)MsgToFocusView(), new API to send message to the active view
in focus. This is to solve the ambiguity of things like pressing
delete key, copy, paste handling when the active new is not in focus.
For example, when spread sheet view is active, delete/copy/paste
handling should be different when the focus on the spread sheet view
or focus on tree view.
* tryClose(), delegate to MainWindow for close confirmation
* reopen(), new API to reload a partial document in full
Document/DocumentP:
* _CoinMap, new internal map for quick access view provider from its
root node.
* slotNewObject, modified to support view provider override from
App::FeaturePython, through new API
DocumentObject::getViewProviderNameOverride().
* slotDeletedObject/slotTransactionRemove, improve handling of geo group
children rebuild
* slotSkipRecompute, add special handling of document with skip
recompute. Some command cannot work when skip recompute is active.
For example, sketcher command will check if recompute is successful
on many commands, and will undo if not. New 'PartialCompute' flag is
added to allow recompute only the editing object and all its
dependencies if 'SkipRecompute' is active.
* slotTouchedObject, new signal handling of manually touched object.
* setModified(), do nothing if already modified. This is a critical
performance improvement, because marking tab window as modified turns
out to be a relatively expensive operation, and will cause massive
slow down if calling it on every property change.
* getViewProviderByPathFromHead/getViewProvidersByPath(), new APIs to
obtain view provider(s) from coin SoPath.
* save/saveAll/saveCopy, modified to support external document saving.
* Save/RestoreDocFile(), save and restore tree item recursive expansion
status.
* slotFinishRestoreObject(), handle new signal
signalFinishRestoreObject(), unifies postprocessing in restore and
import operation.
* createView/setActiveView(), add support of delayed view creations
* canClose(), delegate to MainWindows to ask for confirmation
* undo/redo(), support grouped transaction undo/redo. Transactions may
be grouped by the same transaction ID if they are triggered by a
single operation but involves objects from multiple documents.
* toggleInSceneGraph(), new API to add or remove root node from or to
scenegraph without deleting the view object.
MainWindow:
* Update command status using a single shot timer instead of periodical
one.
* Improve message display is status bar. Give error and warning message
higher priority (using QStatusBar::showMessage()) than normal status
message (using actionLabel), reversed from original implementation.
* confirmSave(), new API to check for modification, and ask user to save
the document before closing. The confirmation dialog allows user to
apply the answer to all document for convenience.
* saveAll(), new API to save all document with correct ordering in case
of external linking.
* createMimeDataFromSelection/insertFromMimeData(), support copy paste
object with external linking. A new dialog DlgObjectSelection is used
to let user select exactly which object to export.
CommandDoc/CommandWindow:
* Related changes to object delete, document import, export, and save.
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.

A new document object App::TextDocument. It has a property Text which
holds the text of the document as a string. This commit also contains a
full size editor based on QPlainTextEdit. It can only be used by the
TextDocument and has a read only mode invoked for read only documents
(ReadOnly property set to true). The editor is invoked by a double
click on the TextDocument.
