tdf#173695 svx: Increase min height for ColorWindow icon view to 250
, switch from using a minimum height of 250 to using
that as the fixed height.
The idea of using a minimum size was to still allow
using more space for the ColorWindow when a palette
with a lot of colors is initially selected.
However, the fact that the size of the popup differs
depending on what palette is initiallly selected is
considered confusing/as a bug, so instead use a fixed
height after all, see discussion in tdf#173695 for
more details/background.
A fixed height was also used when SvxColorValueSet
was still used in ColorWindow, i.e. before

tdf#130857 Port ColorWindow from SvxColorValueSet to ColorIconView
By then, the size could more easily be optimized to
just fit the colors of the "Standard" palette. With
weld::IconView being used now, the exact spacing can
differ depending on what toolkit/theme/style is used, see
the above-mentioned 5c53840b57
for more details.
Which properties are evaluated in the .ui file
depends on the weld implementation.
While the GTK implementation evaluates
GtkScrolledWindow::min-content-height
and GtkScrolledWindow::max-content-height, the vcl one
doesn't do that. Also set GtkWidget::height-request so
the fixed height also applies for that one.

Contains graphics related helper code. Lots of the draw and impress code is in this shared library.

xoutdevthis is where a lot of the work would happen to move to the canvas. (what does that mean?)

SdrObject
The shapes you can see in LibreOffice (like rectangle, etc.) are SdrObjects. They are declared as a hierarchy:
SdrObject <- SdrAttrObj <- E3dObject <- E3dCompoundObject <- E3dCubeObj
^ ^ ^ ^ ^ | | ^ ^
| | | | | | | | +--- E3dExtrudeObj
| | | | | | | +----- E3dLatheObj
| | | | | | +------- E3dPolygonObj
| | | | | +--------- E3dSphereObj
| | | | +--- E3dScene...
| | | |
| | | +--- SdrTextObj <- SdrObjCustomShape...
| | | ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
| | | | | | | +--- SdrEdgeObj...
| | | | | | +----- SdrMeasureObj...
| | | | | +------- SdrPathObj...
| | | | +--------- SdrRectObj...
| | | +----------- SdrTableObj...
| | +--- SdrObjGroup...
| + ---- SdrPageObj...
+------- SdrVirtObj...
The above is incomplete of course.
SdrModel / SdrView
Copied from svdview.hxx:
First of all the app creates a SdrModel.
Then it opens a Win and creates a SdrView.
ShowSdrPage() announces a page at SdrView.
It's possible to show SdrView in any Wins at once.
SdrView can show as many Wins as it wants at once. Pages are announced
or checked out with the help of ShowSdrPage()/HideSdrPage(). For every announced
page there is a SdrPageView instance in container aPages. If more than one page
is showed, you have to pay attention that the offset parameter of ShowSdrPage()
is conformed to the size of the page (to prevent overlapping of two pages).
SdrView itself is inherited from many objects in a chain of inheritance (all
that starts with SdrPaintView - that is itself inherited from few classes
too):
SdrPaintView <- SdrSnapView <- SdrMarkView <- SdrEditView <- SdrPolyEditView
^
+----------------------------------------------------------------+
|
SdrGlueEditView <- SdrObjEditView <- SdrExchangeView <- SdrDragView
^
+----------------------------------------------------------------+
|
SdrCreateView <- SdrView
From SdrView on, it is not flat, but a real hierarchy again.

For SdrObjects, there are own DrawingLayer primitives in
svx/source/sdr/primitive2d
The ViewContact / ViewObject / ViewObjectContact are in svx/source/sdr/contact
Decomposes the SdrObjects, and does all sort of operations on them.
If the number of visualizable objects (e.g. SdrObjects) is X, and the number of
SdrViews is Y, then:
- there are
XViewContactinstances (1:1 relation with a visualizable object) - there are
YObjectContactinstances (1:1 relation with anSdrView) - there are
X*YViewObjectContactinstances (1:N relation to both visualizable objects andSdrViews)
