* Softwrapping improvements (#5893)Clément Delafargue2023-03-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * use max_line_width + 1 during softwrap to account for newline char Helix softwrap implementation always wraps lines so that the newline character doesn't get cut off so he line wraps one chars earlier then in other editors. This is necessary, because newline chars are always selecatble in helix and must never be hidden. However That means that `max_line_width` currently wraps one char earlier than expected. The typical definition of line width does not include the newline character and other helix commands like `:reflow` also don't count the newline character here. This commit makes softwrap use `max_line_width + 1` instead of `max_line_width` to correct the impedance missmatch. * fix typos Co-authored-by: Jonathan Lebon <jonathan@jlebon.com> * Add text-width to config.toml * text-width: update setting documentation * rename leftover config item * remove leftover max-line-length occurrences * Make `text-width` optional in editor config When it was only used for `:reflow` it made sense to have a default value set to `80`, but now that soft-wrapping uses this setting, keeping a default set to `80` would make soft-wrapping behave more aggressively. * Allow softwrapping to ignore `text-width` Softwrapping wraps by default to the viewport width or a configured `text-width` (whichever's smaller). In some cases we only want to set `text-width` to use for hard-wrapping and let longer lines flow if they have enough space. This setting allows that. * Revert "Make `text-width` optional in editor config" This reverts commit b247d526d69adf41434b6fd9c4983369c785aa22. * soft-wrap: allow per-language overrides * Update book/src/configuration.md Co-authored-by: Pascal Kuthe <pascal.kuthe@semimod.de> * Update book/src/languages.md Co-authored-by: Pascal Kuthe <pascal.kuthe@semimod.de> * Update book/src/configuration.md Co-authored-by: Pascal Kuthe <pascal.kuthe@semimod.de> --------- Co-authored-by: Pascal Kuthe <pascal.kuthe@semimod.de> Co-authored-by: Jonathan Lebon <jonathan@jlebon.com> Co-authored-by: Alex Boehm <alexb@ozrunways.com> Co-authored-by: Blaž Hrastnik <blaz@mxxn.io>

A generic `DocFormatter` is introduced that positions graphemes on and is used both for rendering and for movements/scrolling. Both virtual text support (inline, grapheme overlay and multi-line) and a capable softwrap implementation is included. fix picker highlight cleanup doc formatter, use word bondaries for wrapping make visual vertical movement a seperate commnad estimate line gutter width to improve performance cache cursor position cleanup and optimize doc formatter cleanup documentation fix typos Co-authored-by: Daniel Hines <d4hines@gmail.com> update documentation fix panic in last_visual_line funciton improve soft-wrap documentation add extend_visual_line_up/down commands fix non-visual vertical movement streamline virtual text highlighting, add softwrap indicator fix cursor position if softwrap is disabled improve documentation of text_annotations module avoid crashes if view anchor is out of bounds fix: consider horizontal offset when traslation char_idx -> vpos improve default configuration fix: mixed up horizontal and vertical offset reset view position after config reload apply suggestions from review disabled softwrap for very small screens to avoid endless spin fix wrap_indicator setting fix bar cursor disappearring on the EOF character add keybinding for linewise vertical movement fix: inconsistent gutter highlights improve virtual text API make scope idx lookup more ergonomic allow overlapping overlays correctly track char_pos for virtual text adjust configuration deprecate old position fucntions fix infinite loop in highlight lookup fix gutter style fix formatting document max-line-width interaction with softwrap change wrap-indicator example to use empty string fix: rare panic when view is in invalid state (bis) * Apply suggestions from code review Co-authored-by: Michael Davis <mcarsondavis@gmail.com> * improve documentation for positoning functions * simplify tests * fix documentation of Grapheme::width * Apply suggestions from code review Co-authored-by: Michael Davis <mcarsondavis@gmail.com> * add explicit drop invocation * Add explicit MoveFn type alias * add docuntation to Editor::cursor_cache * fix a few typos * explain use of allow(deprecated) * make gj and gk extend in select mode * remove unneded debug and TODO * mark tab_width_at #[inline] * add fast-path to move_vertically_visual in case softwrap is disabled * rename first_line to first_visual_line * simplify duplicate if/else --------- Co-authored-by: Michael Davis <mcarsondavis@gmail.com>
