This commit adds two signals:
* connection_drag_begun, which is emitted when a connection is started
to be created by the user and
* `connection_drag_ended`, which is emitted when no longer a connection
is created.
Additionally `force_connection_drag_end()` adds the possibility to end
the connection dragging. If called from user code, no other connection
request signals are invoked. This is useful to add `GraphNode`s via
shortcuts while the user is dragging a connection to directly connect
the newly added node.
* `_gui_input`, `_input`, `_unhandled_input` and `_unhandled_key_input` are now regular C++ virutal functions.
* Everything else converted to GDVIRTUAL
* BIND_VMETHOD is gone, always use the new syntax from now on.
Creating `_gui_input` method and using the binder to register events will no longer work, simply override the virtual function now.
Remove duplicate bezier code and use Curve instead.
Add an overridable method for retrieving the points of a connection line, which
makes it posible to create custom connections lines.
This PR and commit adds the functionality to arrange nodes in VisualScript/VisualShader editor. The layout generated by this
feature is compact, with minimum crossings between connections
& uniform horizontal & vertical gaps between the nodes.
This work has been sponsored by GSoC '21.
Full list of additions/changes:
• Added arrange_nodes() method in GraphEdit module.
• This method computes new positions for all the selected
nodes by forming blocks and compressing them.
The nodes are moved to these new positions.
• Adding this method to GraphEdit makes it available for
use in VisualScript/VisualShaders editors and its other
subclasses.
• Button with an icon has been added to call arrange_nodes() in GraphEdit.
• This button is inherited by VisualScript/VisualShaders editors
to invoke the method.
• Undo/redo is functional with this method.
• By using signals in arrange_nodes(), position changes are registered
in undo/redo stack of the subclass that is using the method.
• Metadata of the method has been updated in ClassDB
• Method description has been added to class reference of GraphEdit
* Added a new macro SNAME() that constructs and caches a local stringname.
* Subsequent usages use the cached version.
* Since these use a global static variable, a second refcounter of static usages need to be kept for cleanup time.
* Replaced all theme usages by this new macro.
* Replace all signal emission usages by this new macro.
* Replace all call_deferred usages by this new macro.
This is part of ongoing work to optimize GUI and the editor.
Low zoom values result in unreadable text, but it can still be
useful for previewing purposes.
Eventually, characters could be replaced by rectangles at very low
zoom levels to improve the visual appearance.
