Generally useless information. Only updates on connect time, not after
that. Peers can easily lie and the median filter is not effective in
preventing that.
In the past it was used for progress display in the GUI but
`CheckPoints::guessVerificationProgress` provides a better way that is now used.
It was too easy to mislead it. Peers do lie about it in practice, see issue #4065.
From the RPC, `getpeerinfo` gives the peer raw values, which are more
useful.
After the Qt5 switch, status icons were being cut off by 1-2px.
Also fixes some other cases where the UI is slightly off mentioned in #3800.
Fixes#3800.
contrib/devtools/fix-copyright-headers.py script to be able to perform this maintenance task with ease during the rest of the year, every year. Modifications to contrib/devtools/README.md to document what fix-copyright-headers.py does.
- adds a nice and well formated dialog, which displays our -? help message
(all options/paramaters)
- moves aboutdialog.cpp/h to the new utilitydialog
- move GUI shutdown window to utilitydialog
Use a series of .png frames for the spinner instead of a .mng.
`mng` is an obscure image format and is not built by default into Qt5.
This appears to improve the crispness of the spinner as well.
Does not noticably increase the size (still ~27k) and the code
is not more complicated either.
There is not much in the GUI to be done without wallet,
though it's possible to change options, watch the sync process,
and use the debug console.
So embed the debug console in the main window.
Stop the shutdown timer from exiting the main loop
when shutdown is already in progress.
Fixes seeming hanging window after typing 'stop' in debug console.
Also hide the debug console during shutdown as it is useless without
a core to connect to.
Remove the need for global references `guiref` and
`splashref` by making the BitcoinGUI and SplashScreen
classes register for the UI interface signals themselves.
4a61c39 qt: status WalletModel::Aborted is no longer used (Wladimir J. van der Laan)
ca2c83d Remove unused ThreadSafeAskFee from ui_interface (Wladimir J. van der Laan)
37e67d3 Remove unused ThreadSafeHandleURI from ui_interface (Wladimir J. van der Laan)
When a InitError or InitWarning happens, the
GUI pops up but is unusable (until Init finishes).
This is caused by showNormalIfMinimized. Add a message
flag to skip this call for Init errors or warnings.
ThreadSafeAskFee is effectively unused. It is only called
when the fAskFee parameter on SendMoney or SendMoneyToDestination
is true, which never happens. Remove it.
Only messages for now, executable names and other file names
can be changed later if necessary and safe.
Do not do an all-sweeping change. Some occurences of Bitcoin-Qt need to
be kept:
- Applicationname: this is used to determine the registry entry names,
we don't want to lose settings over a silly name change.
- Where it refers to the executable name instead of the product name.
- cleanup Info.plist.in and specify high DPI mode enable command as per
http://blog.qt.digia.com/blog/2013/04/25/retina-display-support-for-mac-os-ios-and-x11/
- move setting of QApplication::setAttribute() to bitcoin.cpp and add
attribute for enabling use of high DPI pixmaps for Qt >= 5.1
- add missing setWindowTitle() on Mac
- cleanup Mac / non-Mac setup in bitcoingui.cpp
- remove default value for parent variable in dialogs, which should appear
centered over main GUI and pass appropriate value
- add some addition NULL pointer checks
Use misc methods of avoiding unnecesary header includes.
Replace int typedefs with int##_t from stdint.h.
Replace PRI64[xdu] with PRI[xdu]64 from inttypes.h.
Normalize QT_VERSION ifs where possible.
Resolve some indirect dependencies as direct ones.
Remove extern declarations from .cpp files.
- remove 2 unneeded windowTitle attributes, which bloat our translations
- cleanup some unneeded .cpp/.h includes and class usages
- use a more generic string for clearing sendcoinsdialog and
requestpaymentdialog
- edit 2 strings in BitcoinGUI and replace "edit" with "show" as this
seems more clear in the context where it is used
- changes some strings that were forgotton or made no sense in the conext
they are used
- remove an orphan file from the qt project file
- revert a small change in signverifymessagedialog.ui
- guard #include "bitcoin-config.h" with #if defined(HAVE_CONFIG_H)
- remove windowTitle from addressbookpage.ui
- this allows us to use emit message() over MessageBox:: or gui->message()
calls in sendcoinsdialog and walletview
- move main handlePaymentRequest() functionality back to BitcoinGUI
- move a showNormalIfMinimized() before gotoSendCoinsPage()
- add new slot handlePaymentACK() to paymentserver, which handles
paymentACK messages (currently we just display them)
- make paymentACK message a modal information dialog
- change some QObject::tr() to just tr()
- clarify the processPaymentRequest() error, when IsDust()
- small string change to prevent a tripple + usage with QString
Selecting the button for a pages was going through bitcoingui->walletframe->walletview->bitcoingui.
Because of this, the actions for the pages had to be exposed on the BitcoinGUI object.
- when closing the client with an open debug window, that window could
become stuck/unsuable (it was still shown wherea the main window was
hidden already)
- fix this by hiding the debug window, when quitting the the client
- make BitcoinGUI::showPaymentACK() use a reference for msg and use our
own GUIUtil::HtmlEscape() function
- ensure QTimer usage in clientmodel is the same as in walletmodel
- remove an unneeded debug message in walletframe
- flag some parameters as unused in DebugMessageHandler()
- small code formatting changes
- ensure message boxes are shown in center of our main window, not
centered on the users desktop
- always prefer user supplied titles for message boxes over the functions
defaults (fixes a bug, where transaction info messages did not contain
information, if it was incoming or outgoing)
- extend PaymentServer with setOptionsModel() and rework initNetManager()
to make use of that
- fix all other places in the code to use display unit from options and no
hard-coded unit
Add support for a Payment Protocol to Bitcoin-Qt.
Payment messages are protocol-buffer encoded and communicated over
http(s), so this adds a dependency on the Google protocol buffer
library, and requires Qt with OpenSSL support.
- move the code for saving and restoring window positions from BitcoinGUI
to GUIUtil, make it more generic and also use it for saving/restoring
debug window positions
- this directly sets up all GUI elements that have testnet special-casing
without first setting up main net stuff and changing afterwards (titles,
icons etc.)
- also fixes 2 wrong icons shown during testnet usage on our toolbar
This commit squashes all the changes in the Qt5 branch
relative to master.
Backward compatibility with Qt4 is retained.
Original authors:
- Philip Kaufmann <phil.kaufmann@t-online.de>
- Jonas Schnelli <jonas.schnelli@include7.ch>
- this solution works stable on mac and ensures that the window get's reopened when the user clicks the dock icon .
- tested on 10.8 with Qt4.8.4 and Qt5.0.1
Signed-off-by: Jonas Schnelli <jonas.schnelli@include7.ch>
Having the export button at the top was confusing people into thinking
the entire wallet was exported.
This commit moves the export button to the address book, receiving
addresses and transaction tabs separately.
- updates ClientModel::getBlockSource() to return all available states and
sorts enum BlockSource in order of usage cases (none default, then reindex,
import and network)
- updates BitcoinGUI::setNumBlocks() to better use getBlockSource() and
also adds a message, when we have NO block source available
- this allows us to use the progressbar and the label independently (if
needed) and still prevents setStatusTip() to use them, if one of the 2
is active
- adds 6 methods in BitcoinGUI to access some actions needed by the new
WalletView class
- updates WalletView class to use these instead of trying to duplicate
these
- cleanup walletview.{cpp/h} and remove all unneeded stuff
- this fixes problems with tabs toolbar (#2451) and export broken (#2436)
- more details in #2447
- the send coins context menu entry was not working anymore, because
a non current version of #2220 was merged onto current master
- also removes some unneeded spaces and adds a comment to
WalletModel::getNumTransactions()
Tabs don't fits in line in Spanish/German/Russian when they has two words.
Wallet has limited functionality. It can send & receive coins. So we can
safely rename "Send coins" to "Send" and "Receive coins" to "Receive".
Address book is just stored addresses.
- this should prevent GUI issues on Mac that were observed before (disappearing
GUI - see #1522)
- the patch ensures, that createTrayIconMenu() is always called on Mac to
process and use our MacDockIconHandler
- allows to directly select an address from the addressbook, chose "send
coins" from the context menu, which sends you to sendcoins tab and fills
in the selected address
- try to enforce the same style to all Qt related files
- remove unneeded includes from the files
- add missing Q_OBJECT, QT_BEGIN_NAMESPACE / QT_END_NAMESPACE
- prepares for a pull-req to include Qt5 compatibility
- use it for displaying URI parsing warnings
- use it for displaying error and information in backup wallet function
(the information display is new and the error was a warning before)
- cleanup BitcoinGUI::incomingTransaction()
-- use message() + the information icon from message
-- comment out an unused parameter in the function definition and
declaration
-- move all pre-checks at the beginning of the function
- this allows to setup the trayicon before we have and want a trayicon menu
- should be of great use, when we remove that splash screen
- fixes a small bug with the toggleHideAction icon, which is not only used with
trayicon but also with the Mac dock
- fix ThreadSafeMessageBox always displays error icon
- allow to specify MSG_ERROR / MSG_WARNING or MSG_INFORMATION without a
custom caption / title
- allow to specify CClientUIInterface::ICON_ERROR / ICON_WARNING and
ICON_INFORMATION (which is default) as message box icon
- remove CClientUIInterface::OK from ThreadSafeMessageBox-calls, as
the OK button will be set as default, if none is specified
- prepend "Bitcoin - " to used captions
- rename BitcoinGUI::error() -> BitcoinGUI::message() and add function
documentation
- change all style parameters and enum flags to unsigned
- update code to use that new API
- update Client- and WalletModel to use new BitcoinGUI::message() and
rename the classes error() method into message()
- include the possibility to supply the wanted icon for messages from
Client- and WalletModel via "style" parameter
Flushes the blktree/ and coins/ databases, and reindexes the
block chain files, as if their contents was loaded via -loadblock.
Based on earlier work by Jeff Garzik.
- add setStatusTip() in addition to setTooltip() where it makes sense
- add only setStatusTip() if GUI element is only used in main- or tray menu
- add an event filter on our BitcoinGUI object to prevent garbelled text
on the status bar, which happens when we use it for e.g. displaying
block-sync state and then a QEvent::StatusTip wants to write own text to it
- remove a double translation of "Bitcoin client"
Implements #1948
- Add macro `CLIENT_VERSION_IS_RELEASE` to clientversion.h
- When running a prerelease (the above macro is `false`):
- In UI, show an orange warning bar at the top. This will be used for other
warnings (and alerts) as well, instead of the status bar.
- For `bitcoind`, show the warning in the "errors" field in `getinfo`
response.
- re-order Qt Actions and connect() calls to match the real GUI layout,
which makes things easier to read and understand
- remove signMessageAction and verifyMessageAction from tabGroup as we
didn't use them anyway (as tooltips are not displayed in the menu remove
these too)
- update 2 comments
- be clear we don't "Show/Hide Bitcoins", but just the client window
- remove the tooltip for toggleHideAction as this is not shown anyway
- update a comment to be more general
Windows & WindowsXP style have a problem with displaying the block progress.
Add a custom stylesheet as workaround, but only when one of those renderers is active,
otherwise leave the theme alone (issue #1071).
- this helps user to not think our Client is called "Bitcoin Wallet"
- change "About Bitcoin-Qt" to "About Bitcoin"
- change "Bitcoin debug window" to "Bitcoin - Debug window"
- change "Client" in debug Window to "Bitcoin Core"
- add signals signMessage() and verifyMessage() in addressbookpage.cpp
- connect to them in bitcoingui.cpp to switch to the corresponding tab in the Sign/Verify Message dialog
- make gotoSignMessageTab() and gotoVerifyMessageTab() private slots
- remove unused #include <QDebug> and lblBTC label
- update Bitcoin input field to a BitcoinAmountField to allow Bitcoin unit selection
- use BitcoinUnits::format for the resulting amount parameter in the generated URI (always use BTC as per BIP21)
- move MAX_URI_LENGTH and EXPORT_IMAGE_SIZE to guiconstants.h
- add OptionsModel in AddressBookPage and use it in on_showQRCode_clicked() to pass it to QRCodeDialog
- add OptionsModel in QRCodeDialog to enable display unit updates
- add updateDisplayUnit() slot to be able to imediately update currently set bitcoin unit
- make all labels in the UI-file plain text
- resize dialog to match for an updated layout (fields are now stacked and new field)
- remove unused parameters from private slots
- only enable save button, when QR Code was generated
- show message when entered amound is invalid
- add read-only QPlainTextEdit field to output generated URI
- add UI-feedback via QValidatedLineEdit
- copy button for generated signature was moved to the signature output field
- add an addressbook button to verify message tab
- input fields are now evenly ordered for sign and verify tabs
- update FIRST_CLASS_MESSAGING support to ensure a good UX
- add a button and context menu entry in addressbook for verify message (to be consistent with sign message)
- focus is now only set/changed, when clearing input fields or adding an address via addressbook
- re-work / update some strings
- ensure model gets initialized in the SignVerifyMessageDialog constructor
- add checks for a valid model to both addressbook buttons
- remove unneeded includes for Qt GUI elements that are listed in ui_signverifymessagedialog.h anyway
The current order of menu options in the tray menu doesn't really match expected usage patterns, this commit changes it to more logical order.
- Toggle show/hide first (unchanged)
- Then, send/receive coins actions, which are the critical functionality of bitcoin
- Then, sign/verify message
- Then finally the options, and closing with the debug window
Gets rid of `MainFrameRepaint` in favor of specific update functions that tell the UI exactly what changed.
This improves the efficiency of various handlers. Also fixes problems with mined transactions not showing up until restart.
The following notifications were added:
- `NotifyBlocksChanged`: Block chain changed
- `NotifyKeyStoreStatusChanged`: Wallet status (encrypted, locked) changed.
- `NotifyAddressBookChanged`: Address book entry changed.
- `NotifyTransactionChanged`: Wallet transaction added, removed or updated.
- `NotifyNumConnectionsChanged`: Number of connections changed.
- `NotifyAlertChanged`: New, updated or cancelled alert. As this finally makes it possible for the UI to know when a new alert arrived, it can be shown as OS notification.
These notifications could also be useful for RPC clients. However, currently, they are ignored in bitcoind (in noui.cpp).
Also brings back polling with timer for numBlocks in ClientModel. This value updates so frequently during initial download that the number of signals clogs the UI thread and causes heavy CPU usage. And after initial block download, the value changes so rarely that a delay of half a second until the UI updates is unnoticable.
Implemented without having to touch any translation: by listening for QEvent::ToolTipChange events, then rewriting the tooltips to prefix `<qt/>` if it is not yet rich text.
- Move scripts/qt to share/qt, to clean up toplevel directories
- Update english ts file which is used to source messages for Transifex
- In extract_strings_qt.py use a glob *.h *.cpp, this is safe now that the Wx UI files are removed
- converted openBictoinAction to toggleHideAction
- put GUIUtil functions into a namespace instead of a class
- put window-related functions together in optionsdialog
Reasoning:
- toggle is more typical behaviour
- it's more functional
- better UX
The typical issue with toggling visibility is that when a window
is obscured by other windows but in the 'shown' state, hiding it
isn't what you want. I've added an 'isObscured' function to GUIUtil
that checks several pixels in the window to see if they are visible
on the desktop so that an obscured but shown window can be raised.
Conflicts:
src/qt/guiutil.cpp
src/qt/guiutil.h
- rename wxMessageBox, remove redundant arguments to noui/qtui calls
- also, add flag to force blocking, modal dialog box for disk space warning etc
- clarify function naming
- no more special MessageBox needed from AppInit2, as window object is created before calling AppInit2
- Overall, this is better design
- This fixes problems with the address book UI not updating when the address book is changed through RPC
- Move Statusbar change detection responsibility to ClientModel
It was too hyperactive.
gmaxwell: I mean that right now when the block gap goes over an hour it starts showing synchronizing. Increasing that to 90 minutes or so would make it only happen about 6.4 times per year
- icon from the LGPL Nuvola set (like the tick) - http://www.icon-king.com/projects/nuvola/
- include 'boost/version.hpp' in db.cpp so that the overwrite version of copy can be used
- catch exceptions in BackupWallet (e.g. filesystem_error thrown when trying to overwrite without the overwrite flag set)
- include db.h in walletmodel.cpp for BackupWallet function
- updated doc/assets-attribution.txt and contrib/debian/copyright with copyright info for new icon
- In a previous patch, show() was added to all the page switcher functions. As the contructor calls showOverviewPage(), this means the window is shown in the constructor.
- This change prevents this by connecting show() to the signal instead.
Now it can't be told if this is was a Windows App before. All Mac design principles are fulfilled and some cosmetics have been applied to suit the native look and feel. The biggest change there is the proper use of the Dock icon which takes the role of the Tray icon on Mac.
The QDoubleSpinBox improves entering of Bitcoin amounts, no two separate fields are required anymore. All functionality and validation effects have been retained; pressing the comma key will be internally translated to a period to keep it consistent throughout the application and eases entering in countries which use the comma as decimal separator.
Additionally, Notificator now supports Growl, Mac's native notification system. This is provided via Apple Script in order to avoid linking to Growl on compile time. Other changes involve encapsulation of Toolbar and Menubar creation, loading of Qt's own translation and some clean up.
