=======================================
- Fixing toggle AutoUpdate Mode
- Fix Auto-Update Sketcher tools
- Fix missing createGeo recomputes
- Missing constraints recomputes fixed
Various fixes for non-Update mode:
- Fixes lack of update upon entering a conflicting datum constraint.
- Fixes lack of update upon setting the reference/driving status of a constraint
- Added tooltips to buttons
=========================================================
Upon deletion of a constraint, the constraint was still enforced for UI operations (dragging of a point) and DoF was not updated.
======================================================================================
There is a checkbox, default disabled, that makes the commands NOT to generate a recompute after each.
This means that if you are editing a sketch that is used to generate a pad or pocket, if the checkbox is
disabled, the dependent objects do not get recomputed.
There is a button next to it to force a manual recompute, in case it is needed.
If the user wants the previous behavior, he only needs to activate the checkbox. The previous status of the box
is restored upon entering a sketch in edit mode.
It is remarkable the case of the Fillet and Trim
On changing ActSketch (solvedSketch) to SketchObject and making movePoint not systematically update the geometry, the solving in MovePoint was confronted with solving for "the last solved geometry",
which is the default behaviour, in some situations (Fillet and Trim) where geometry had changed at SketchObject level, and was the subject of the moving actions.
MovePoint has been updated to take an extra optional parameter, to force the change in solved geometry in those situations.
Some other minor bug also fixed in Fillet creation in CommandCreateGeo.cpp
This commit also introduces conditional recompute on some operations of:
- constraints
- geometry creation (reubication of update active to comprise the autoconstraints within a single UpdateActive)
=======================================================================================
ActSketch in ViewProvider dissapears. The temporal sketch (sketch.cpp) for solving is now a data member of SketchObject.cpp (hereinafter solvedSketch). All the solving is concentrated in SketchObject.cpp.
SketchObject provides an interface to expose its solver, as it is still currently needed for some UI operations from ViewProviderSketch, like dragging points (solving rubber bands).
ViewProviderSketch still can select whether to draw the solvedSketch geometry (previously ActSketch) geometry (UI staff) or the SketchObject geometry. Performancewise, it makes sense to separate this two
geometries, as the SketchObject one involves modifying the Geometry and Constraint Properties (including all the undo related functionality), which would mess the undo functinality and incur in a big
peformance penalisation while dragging. One characteristic of solvedSketch is that its geometry is solved, whereas the geometry of SketchObject may not have been solved yet.
These geometries may differ at for the following reasons:
1. The geometry corresponds to an ongoing dragging operation, so solvedSketch has the last calculated dragging geometry, while SketchObject has the one corresponding to initial position.
2. Geometry/constraints were added to the sketch, but no solve/execute was triggered yet (envisioned situation is the future group creation functionality not in this commit).
What do I gain?
- Inserting a (simple) geometry element now costs 1 solver execution.
- Inserting a constraint now costs 1 solver executions.
For reference, in previous versions inserting a constraint involved 5 solver executions.
The following information provide a historical review of the coding of this commit (formed of 10 squashed commits):
This is a general sketch solve call reduction, not only during geometry creation (this commit does not include until here any specific measure to reduce calls on geometry creation, that is another branch)
After a lot of profiling, it seems that the "cause"(tm) that creates so many solver calls is that every update generates a solving in ViewProviderSketch, regardless of the need for that update,
many times with the only aim of providing the DoF for the message dialog and keeping ActSketch in sync with SketchObject in case it is needed (currently UI moving points, constraints,...).
Sketch solver is now a data member of SketchObject instead of a temporal object that gets initilized and destroyed.
This allows:
1. Potentially more synergy reducing calls to setUpSketch (still to be seen, still to be optimized)
2. Allowing SketchObject to access the latest geometry that has been solved => In future, allow objects that use SketchObject to obtain the latest
solved geometry instead the geometry of SketchObject that may still be unsolved. This is relevant for drawing the geometry
No more solving in ViewProviderSketch. Solving a Sketch is now an exclusive competence of SketchObject.
There is however a lot of cleaning to do in ViewProviderSketch
(I mean, not that these commits are making a mess in VPSketch,
but that as a consequence of the changes, it should be possible to
optimize VPSketch, specially moving and drawing methods)
Very useful comment for future developers that may wonder why a solve per constraint just upon addition is necessary.
Added a new function to get the size of the geometry of the instance of the solver object (Sketch.cpp).
The previous way was to extract the geometry, which is costly and error prone, as you have to delete it afterwards.
Inserted comment about the necessity of triggering a Part2D update during edit mode
Arch objects can now be based on a Part Compound and will take
its DiffuseColor property. Arch objects that are clones of
such objects will also copy that property.
Newly installed workbenches are not on enabled nor disabled list, so
they were treated as disabled. That behaviur could be confusing for
the user as a newly installed workbench was not shouwing up on the
workbench list. This commit changes that behaviour and new workbenches
are enabled by default.

Also animateNodes is now applyDisplacementToNodes.
The funcions are not doing animation, but are responsible
for deforming mesh.
