Maximize button for resizable instruments (#7514)
* Maximize button for resizable instruments Show the maximize button for resizable instruments. Most other changes have the character of refactorings and code reorganizations. Remove the negation in the if condition for resizable instruments to make the code better readable. Only manipulate the system menu if the instrument is not resizable. Add a TODO to the special code that sets a size. * Fix rendering of maximized sub windows In `SubWindow::paintEvent` don't paint anything if the sub window is maximized . Otherwise some gradients are visible behind the maximized child content. In `SubWindow::adjustTitleBar` hide the title label and the buttons if the sub window is maximized. Always show the title and close button if not maximized. This is needed to reset the state correctly after maximization. * Add SubWindow::addTitleButton Add the helper method `SubWindow::addTitleButton` to reduce code repetition in the constructor. * Only disable the minimize button Disable the minimize button by taking the current flags and removing the minimize button hint from them instead of giving a list which might become incomplete in the future. So only do what we want to do. * Remove dependency on MdiArea Remove a dependency on the `MdiArea` when checking if the sub window is the active one. Query its own window state to find out if it is active. * Clear Qt::MSWindowsFixedSizeDialogHint Clear the `Qt::MSWindowsFixedSizeDialogHint` flag for resizable instruments (symmetric to the `else` case). * Update the sub window title bar of exchanged instruments Update the title bar of an instrument's sub window if the model changes, e.g. if an instrument is exchanged via drag & drop. The main fix is to call the new method `updateSubWindowState` in `InstrumentTrackWindow::modelChanged`. It contains mostly the code that was previously executed in the constructor of `InstrumentTrackWindow`. The constructor now simply calls this method after it has put the constructed instance into a sub window. With the current implementation the sub window needs to be explicitly triggered to update its title bar once the flags have been adjusted in `updateSubWindowState`. This is done with the new public method `SubWindow::updateTitleBar`. Please note that such an explicit update is not needed if the instrument windows are managed by a `QMdiSubWindow` instead of a `SubWindow`. This means that the implementation of `SubWindow` is still missing something that `QMdiSubWindow` does. However, debugging also showed that setting the window flags of the sub window does not seem to lead to an event that could be caught in `SubWindow::changeEvent`. This was found out by simply dumping the event types of all events that arrive in that method and exchanging an instrument. The method `updateSubWindowState` uses the added method `findSubWindowInParents` to find the sub window it is contained in. The latter method should be considered to be moved into a templated helper class because it might be useful in other contexts as well. ## Technical details If you want to experiment with using QMdiSubWindows then simply add the following method to `MainWindow` (right next to `addWindowedWidget`): ``` QMdiSubWindow* MainWindow::addQMdiSubWindow(QWidget *w, Qt::WindowFlags windowFlags) { // wrap the widget in our own *custom* window that patches some errors in QMdiSubWindow auto win = new QMdiSubWindow(m_workspace->viewport(), windowFlags); win->setAttribute(Qt::WA_DeleteOnClose); win->setWidget(w); m_workspace->addSubWindow(win); return win; } ``` Then call that method instead of `addWindowedWidget` in the constructor of `InstrumentTrackWindow`: ``` QMdiSubWindow* subWin = getGUI()->mainWindow()->addQMdiSubWindow( this ); ``` You can then comment out the cast and the call of `updateTitleBar` in `updateSubWindowState` and everything will still work. * Update the system menu Show or hide the "Size" and "Maximize" entries in the system menu depending on whether the instrument view is resizable or not. * Show non-resizable instruments as normal Show the sub windows of non-resizable instruments as normal if the sub window is maximized because it was previously used with a resizable instrument. * Fix typo * Rename updateSubWindowState Rename `updateSubWindowState` to `updateSubWindow`.
