This file is just for miscellaneous notes on how things work in Kivio or
|
|
things that should/should-not be done.

|
- The ID System
|
|
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
The way Kivio locates stencils after saving and loading them is through an
|
|
ID system. Each stencil set is given a unique ID. Many times, this id
|
|
is simply the author or company's name concatenated with the native title of
|
|
the stencil set, and a roman numeral. This is the naming convention the
|
|
author has been using. The id's of the stencils themselves are usually
|
|
the same as the native title.
|
|
|
|
It is critically important that the Id's ******NEVER****** be translated
|
|
or Kivio won't be able to load documents which are saved in one locale,
|
|
and then loaded in another.

- Removing A Stencil Set
|
|
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
Here are the steps the code does:
|
|
|
|
- Removing a stencil set by clicking on the button 'x'. There are quite
|
|
a few things which happen as a result of a user clicking the 'x' on
|
|
a DragBarButton.
|
|
DragBarButton emits a closeRequired( DragBarButton * ) signal,
|
|
KivioStackBar catches it with slotDeleteButton( DragBarButton * ),
|
|
KivioStackBar then emits deleteButton(DragBarButton *, TQWidget *, KivioStackBar *),
|
|
KivioDocument then catches this with slotDeleteStencilSet( signature ) and
|
|
iterates through all stencils on all pages of the document making sure it
|
|
is ok to delete this stencil set. If it is, it removes the stencil (spawner) set
|
|
with a call to removeSpawnerSet( ... ) and emits the signal
|
|
sig_deleteStencilSet( DragBarButton *, TQWidget *, KivioStackBar * )
|
|
StencilBarDockManager catches this with slotDeleteStencilSet( .... ) and tells the
|
|
KivioStackBar object to delete the passed DragBarButton and widget associated with
|
|
it. It then checks if any pages are visible on the KivioStackBar object. If
|
|
there are not, it then removes it from either the bars list, or topLevel bars list
|
|
and then deletes the KivioStackBar object.
