I have a question for those that know:
in my new GUIIndependent (xforms implementation) InsetRef dialog (that is the
new "big" dialog with browser), I can go to the reference and go back. Well and
good.
I go back by calling LxXFunc::Dispatch( LFUN_REF_BACK ), which in turn
calls BufferView::Pimpl::restorePosition()
In turn this function calls BufferView::Pimpl::buffer() which UPDATES all
buffer dependent dialogs:
owner_->getDialogs()->updateBufferDependent();
This completely messes things up in my dialog (ie, it resets everything!)
I have modified BufferView::Pimpl::restorePosition() as shown below. This works
for my needs, but will it break anything else?
void BufferView::Pimpl::restorePosition()
{
if (backstack.empty()) return;
int x, y;
string fname = backstack.pop(&x, &y);
beforeChange();
Buffer * b = bufferlist.exists(fname) ?
bufferlist.getBuffer(fname) :
bufferlist.loadLyXFile(fname); // don't ask, just load it
- buffer(b);
+ if( !bufferlist.exists(fname) ) buffer(b);
bv_->text->SetCursorFromCoordinates(bv_, x, y);
update(BufferView::SELECT|BufferView::FITCUR);
}
Actually, not knowing what is going on here, why is there the call to buffer(b)
at all? It doesn't seem to make much sense.
The alternative is that I wrap disconnect/connect calls around my call within
the dialog. Ie:
u_.disconnect();
lv_->getLyXFunc()->Dispatch( LFUN_REF_INSERT,
params.getAsString().c_str() );
u_ = d_->updateBufferDependent.
connect(slot(this, &FormCommand::update));
Any comments? Someone out there is far more knowledgeable than me!
