Requirements
|
|
|
|
* Flexible: plugins should be able to add palettes or palette tabs
|
|
* Connected: palette tabs should be able to connect to the main application
|
|
using signals and slots
|
|
* Configurable: palette widgets should be drag & droppable from palette
|
|
to palette, and from palette to void to create a new palette.
|
|
* Persistent: the palette configuration of a view should be persisted
|
|
on application end and reconfigured on application start.
|
|
* Pretty: the palettes should be small, but perfectly formed. There
|
|
should be the possibility to use either tabbars or toolboxes for
|
|
a palette.
|
|
* introspective: the application and plugins should be able to
|
|
query for existing palettes and tabs and retrieve a list and
|
|
pertinent data on existing palettes and tabs (so a plugin can
|
|
decide to place itself initially in a palette with other color
|
|
tabs, for instance.
|
|
|
|
Classes:
|
|
|
|
PaletteManager, Palette, PaletteContainer PaletteWidget
|
|
|
|
The palettemanager keeps track of palettes and saves & restores sessions.
|
|
|
|
Palettes can shade and unshade themselves with a double-click on the
|
|
titlebar or using the shade button
|
|
|
|
Palettes contain a container, either tab-type or toolbox type.
|
|
The containers accept drops, in which case a widget is plugged into
|
|
the container. The tabs or separators accept drag events, in which
|
|
case a widget is unplugged and a drag operation is started.
|
|
|
|
The drag operation can end in the void, or above another palette.
|
|
If above a palette, see above. Into the void: create a new palette
