TODO

  • session list: prevent tab-focusing the delegates

  • refresh server list button

  • global presence control

  • fix local unread counters order

  • publish room or alias control

  • open context menus centered on touch screens

  • auto-idle for Windows and OSX

  • status based on process detection

Refactoring

  • General change/upload avatar component for account and room settings
  • Refactor EventList.qml
  • Refactor InviteBanner/LeftBanner
  • Implement different delegate for different types of events in QML, instead of having only one doing everything with untranslatable content texts from Python

Issues

  • Show a proper error when accepting a room invite that has expired or the room doesn't exist anymore (MatrixNotFound)

  • Replying to one of our own message that's currently only a local echo results in a reply to an empty ID

  • Bottom focus line for an HTextArea inside a ScrollView is invisible, put the background on ScrollView instead?

  • Don't send typing notification when switching to a room where the composer has preloaded text

  • When calling Backend.update_room_read_marker() for a recent message, the marker will only be updated for accounts that have already received it (server lag)

  • Jumping between accounts (clicking in account bar or alt+(Shift+)N) is laggy with hundreds of rooms in between

  • Drag-scrolling in room pane a tiny bit activates the delegates

  • Catch server 5xx errors when sending message and retry

  • 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

  • After forgetting a room, it comes back because of the "you left" event

  • code, mentions and links in quote ("> http://example.com") aren't properly colored in room delegate "last message" subtitle

  • Timer and Animation are bound to framerate

  • Can't use QQmlApplicationEngine, problem with QApplication? See https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-50992

  • HTML

    not rendered

  • Pausing uploads doesn't work well, servers ends up dropping the connection (no real solution possible?)

Interface

Notable changes for future Qt version upgrade

Qt 5.13

  • Added SplitView
  • Added cache property to icon

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.

    • Rewrite HKineticScrollingDisabler with it

  • 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

  • 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.

  • Added selectTextByMouse property to ComboBox.

  • Technology Preview: Support for running Qt Quick (2D) on top of Direct3D, Metal and Vulkan
