# TODO
|
|
|
|
## Before release
|
|
|
|
- Catch server 5xx errors when sending message and retry
|
|
- Update README.md
|
|
|
|
## Refactoring
|
|
|
|
- Rewrite the message selection buggy mess
|
|
|
|
- Put keybindings in the components they belong to instead of shoving them
|
|
all in one central file
|
|
|
|
- Rewrite account settings using `HTabbedContainer`
|
|
- Get rid of all `currentSpacing` stuff
|
|
- Use new default/reset controls system
|
|
- Display name field text should be colored
|
|
|
|
- Split `HScrollableTextArea` into `HTextArea` and `HScrollView` components
|
|
- Refactor `Composer`
|
|
|
|
- Make sure we don't store any state in delegates
|
|
|
|
- Drop the `buttonModel`/`buttonCallbacks` `HBox` approach, be more declarative
|
|
|
|
## Issues
|
|
|
|
- Popups and room settings can't be scrolled when not enough height to show all
|
|
|
|
- `Timer` and `Animation` are bound to framerate
|
|
|
|
- Handle cases where a known account's access token is invalid
|
|
- If an account is gone from the user's config, discard UI state last page
|
|
|
|
- First sent message in E2E room is sometimes undecryptable
|
|
(can be fixed by logging out and in again) (still valid?)
|
|
|
|
- After forgetting a room, it comes back because of the "you left" event
|
|
|
|
- `code` and links in quote ("> http://example.com") aren't properly colored
|
|
in room "last message" subtitle
|
|
|
|
- Terrible performance using `QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland-egl`, must use `xcb`
|
|
- Can't use `QQmlApplicationEngine`, problem with QApplication?
|
|
See https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-50992
|
|
- [HTML <hr> not rendered](https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-74342)
|
|
- Pausing uploads doesn't work well, servers ends up dropping the connection
|
|
(no real solution possible?)
|
|
|
|
## Interface
|
|
|
|
- Expand the room pane if it's currently too small to show room settings
|
|
- Use a loader for items not in view for the `HTabContainer`'s `SwipeView`
|
|
|
|
- Make "Cancel" buttons consistent, and able to cancel running Backend
|
|
coroutines. Set `disabledWhileLoading` to `false` for all "OK" buttons where
|
|
it makes sense.
|
|
|
|
- Add missing room keybindings (e.g. to open the invite members popup)
|
|
- Room pane keybindings

|
|
- In direct chat page, show the matching user's avatar when typing

## Distribution and dependencies
|
|
|
|
- Update to Mistune v2.0
|
|
|
|
## Notable changes for future Qt version upgrade
|
|
|
|
### [Qt 5.13](https://wiki.qt.io/New_Features_in_Qt_5.13)
|
|
|
|
- Added `SplitView`
|
|
- Added `cache` property to icon
|
|
|
|
### [Qt 5.14](https://wiki.qt.io/New_Features_in_Qt_5.14)
|
|
|
|
- Applications can now opt-in to use non-integer scale factors.
|
|
Use `QGuiApplication::highDpiScaleFactorRoundingPolicy`.
|
|
|
|
- Added `qmlRegisterSingletonInstance` function.
|
|
This allows to expose a QObject as a singleton to QML, without having to
|
|
create a factory function as required by `qmlRegisterSingletonType`.
|
|
It is meant as a type safe replacement of `setContextProperty`.
|
|
|
|
- Added `qmlRegisterAnonymousType` as a replacement for `qmlRegisterType`.
|
|
It allows to specify the URI and major version for better tooling support.
|
|
|
|
- qmllint gained an experimental -U option. If run with it, it warns about
|
|
about accesses to unqualified identifiers
|
|
|
|
- `Text` and `TextEdit` now support Markdown format
|
|
(CommonMark and GitHub dialects) as an alternative to HTML.
|
|
Includes the GitHub checklist extension, such that you can click to toggle
|
|
checkboxes in a `TextEdit`.
|
|
|
|
- `TextEdit` uses an I-beam cursor by default, and a pointing-hand cursor when
|
|
hovering a checkbox or a link
|
|
|
|
- Added `WheelHandler`, an Event Handler for the mouse wheel, and optionally
|
|
for emulated mouse wheel events coming from a trackpad.
|
|
|
|
- Added `BoundaryRule` in Qt.labs.animation: a `PropertyValueInterceptor` that
|
|
restricts the range of values a numeric property can have, applies
|
|
"resistance" when the value is overshooting, and provides the ability to
|
|
animate it back within range. It's particularly useful in combination with
|
|
`WheelHandler`, to provide similar physics as Flickable has.
|
|
|
|
- `Image` and `BorderImage` now have the same `currentFrame` and `frameCount`
|
|
properties that `AnimatedImage` has; this allows choosing an individual icon
|
|
from an .ICO file that contains multiple icons, for example.
|
|
In the future it's intended to support other multi-page formats such as
|
|
PDF, TIFF and WEBP.
|
|
|
|
- `Binding.restoreMode`: This property can be used to describe if and how the
|
|
original value should be restored when the binding is disabled.
|
|
|
|
### [Qt 5.15](https://wiki.qt.io/New_Features_in_Qt_5.15)
|
|
|
|
- Introduced inline components
|
|
(ability to declare multiple QML components in the same file)
|
|
|
|
- Introduced `required` properties
|
|
|
|
- Added a declarative way of registering types to QML
|
|
|
|
- Added support for the Nullish Coalescing Operator (`??`)
|
|
|
|
- Added `qmlformat` tool which automatically formats any QML file according to
|
|
the QML Coding Conventions.
|
|
|
|
- Added `cursorShape` property to pointer handlers. Most pointer handlers
|
|
(e.g. `DragHandler`) will change the cursor when the active state is true.
|
|
`HoverHandler` will change it when the mouse is hovering over the `Item` that
|
|
contains the `HoverHandler`.
