-
- // General
-
- * Priorities for the next minor release:
- * Make high-quality, nice to see rendering in Pango, for both Math and Box
- * Make the widget more robust (font management)
-
- - implement GnomePrint backend
- - implement PS backend
- + make DPI a configurable parameter
- + find a way of having TFM support orthogonal to the other classes
- ? make pangolayout pangolinelayout areas configurable (glyph area?)
- ? T1 CM shaper useful for SVG?
- ? have callback functions to notify progress while building/formatting/etc?
- these should not depend on the backend
- - use step area to implement linebreaking in mrows
- - add possibility of disabling shaping of certain characters for shapers. Eg:
- <section name="disable-shaping">
- <key name="char">03BB</key>
- <section name="range">
- <key name="from">A0</key>
- <key name="to">B0</key>
- </section>
- </section>
-
- // AbiWord
-
- * move Char.hh.in into auto and cleanup dependencies with the top_builddir?
- * commit default shaper in abimathview
-
- // MathML
-
- BUGS
-
- + implement combining characters when TFM is enabled for the
- computer modern shaper
- ? when index == length in a glyph area the caret is drawn
- at the right end of the focus' bounding box. It would be
- more appropriate to draw it just after the glyph, especially
- for mo elements. Is this really better?
- ? selecting the root <math> element does not show selection
-
- ARCH IMPROVEMENTS
-
- * MathMLNormalizingContainerElement::format can be removed
- ? make default value of attributes configurable
- ? make GlyphStringArea a leaf-like area?
- - change the clone method for areas so that it checks if the
- content is unchanged, and possibly implement the replace this
- way
- - implement auxiliary methods for searching into the area model
- - It may be feasible to generalize searching functions
- over areas by implementing a visitor
- - remove cast in gmetadom_Model::documentFromBuffer when gdome API is OK
- O it seems like the choice of having that the first child of a
- vertical area is the bottommost is a bit weird. Think of the cursor:
- intuitively at increasing indices the cursor should go forward (that
- is right or down depending on the container). No, it is consistent
- with the coordinate system used by areas where the origin is at the
- bottom
-
- PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENTS
-
- - in TemplateBuilder do not use the hash map for retrieving old
- elements, but use accessor methods instead. Much faster
-
- MISSING
-
- ? make setSelected virtual in Gtk_WrapperArea and implement
- an open Wrapper area that selects all its children. Use the
- open wrapper for groups
- - implement PS area model (using pslib?)
- - implement T1lib area model (using pslib instead?)
- - implement shaper for Mathematica fonts
- - implement shaper for Euclid fonts
- - runtime selection of backend
-
- // BoxML
-
- BUGS
-
- MISSING
-
- - add documentation for boxml
-
- // SVG Backend
-
- BUGS
-
- - character 2211 is not displayed (and probably others) because there is
- no default shaper (?)
-
- IMPROVEMENTS
-
- - do not draw the contour of text, so that letters are thinner
-
- MISSING
-
- - cross-embedding of MathML and SVG following the guidelines?
- - cross-embedding of MathML and SVG with coordinates computation?
- - document alpha channel in RGBColor
-
- // GTK Backend
-
- ARCH IMPROVEMENTS
-
- + define selection as a pluggable feature (much like decorators)
- instead of a built-in feature. For some operations it may be desirable
- not to have selection implemented this way
- + same with click
-
