Views now have a cursor index (retrievable via cursor_index()) which
is separate from the selection.
Until now, we've been using the first entry in the selection as
"the cursor", which gets messy whenever you want to select more than
one index in the model.
When setting the cursor, the selection is implicitly updated as well
to maintain the old behavior (for the most part.)
Going forward, this will make it much easier to implement things like
shift-select (extend selection from cursor) and such. :^)
A view can now be told to move its cursor in one of multiple directions
as specified by the CursorMovement enum.
View subclasses can override move_cursor(CursorMovement) to implement
their own cursor behavior. By default, AbstractView::move_cursor() is
a no-op.
This patch improves code sharing between TableView and TreeView. :^)
This patch introduces the HeaderView class, which is a widget that
implements the column headers of TableView and TreeView.
This greatly simplifies event management in the view implementations
and also makes it much easier to eventually implement row headers.
This patchset adds a few getters/setters to AbstractTableView to make
its looks more customisable:
- Header width & text alignment
- Default column width
- Ability to disable selected row highlighting
Instead of SortingProxyModel having a column+order, we move that state
to AbstractView. When you click on a column header, the view tells the
model to resort the relevant column with the new order.
This is implemented in SortingProxyModel by simply walking all the
reified source/proxy mappings and resorting their row indexes.
If a model doesn't specify a text alignment for a given field, we now
fall back to CenterLeft. This will look better than Center in the vast
majority of cases.
