With this change, binding can be activated mostly-correctly from
the compatability layer. Closing still isn't working quite right, more
changes to follow.
(Disabled by a CMake option)
This builds equivalent C++ objects to what the PUI dialogs build, with
properties exposed to Nasal. Peer objects are created by Nasal callbacks,
which can implement the various dialog functions needed to keep
compatibility, especially the ‘update’ and ‘apply’ hooks.
Add a bool flag isRoute to flight-plan, and use it to model
routes (which contain VIAs) from plans/legs, which do not.
Default isRoute to false, so most users only see expanded
Vias, and hence something that can be flown directly.
Two affected places:
- the built-in launcher (command line options link);
- package/org.flightgear.FlightGear.metainfo.in.
The previous link points to an old version of the manual.
This is by Lars Toenning <dev@ltoenning.de>, Roman Ludwicki <romek21@op.pl> and
SDeAstis <salvatore.deastis@gmail.com>, in 2021 Hackathon.
Also cope with removal of SGPropertyNode::getName() - use getNameString()
instead.
If /sim/highlighting/enabled is true, we highlight animated objects under the
pointer, and also highlight other objects that are animated by the same or
related properties.
The intent here is to be able to give a visual indication of what cockpit
controls do or what cockpit controls affect particular aircraft objects - for
example moving the pointer over the flaps will highlight the flaps and also
highlight any controls or rotary indicators in the cockpit that are associated
with the flaps.
To make this work, we have to discover associations between properties. This
is currently done for YASim (e.g. associations between /controls/flight/flaps
and /surface-positions/flap-pos-norm) and autopilot filters (e.g. with
the 777, digital filters associate /controls/flight/rudder-nul with
/fcs/fbw/yaw/rudder-ratio-out). We don't currently gather associations between
properties in JSBSim
We also detect associations between dialogs, menus and keypresses and
properties, which is used to populate /sim/highlighting/current with
information about dialogs, menus and keypresses that are associated with the
currently highlighted nodes' properties.
Details:
src/GUI/Highlight.cxx
src/GUI/Highlight.hxx
src/GUI/CMakeLists.txt
src/Main/fg_init.cxx
New subsystem called 'highlight', with support for registering and
recovering links between menus, dialogs, keypresses and OSG node
animations.
Provides a function Highlight::highlight_nodes() which highlights
related nodes using internal NodeHighlighting class, and populates
/sim/highlighting/current with information about related dialogs, menus and
keypresses.
The NodeHighlighting class works by making nodes use an alternative
StateSet which shows up as a distinct material on screen. We remember each
highlighted node's original StateSet so that we can un-highlight. We update
the material parameters using a listener for /sim/highlighting/material,
which allows some control over the appearence of highlighted nodes.
src/FDM/flight.cxx
src/FDM/flight.hxx
Added virtual method FGInterface::property_associations() which returns
property associations from the FDM. Default implementation returns empty
set. Implemented in YASim, but not (yet) in JSBSim. Uses a simple function
pointer at the moment to avoid requring FDMs to use recent C++ features.
src/FDM/YASim/FGFDM.cpp
src/FDM/YASim/FGFDM.hpp
src/FDM/YASim/YASim.cxx
src/FDM/YASim/YASim.hxx
Gathers information about property associations on startup such as
/controls/flight/flaps => /surface-positions/flap-pos-norm, then
YASim::property_associations() overrides default implementation to return
these associations.
src/Autopilot/analogcomponent.cxx
src/Autopilot/analogcomponent.hxx
src/Autopilot/digitalfilter.cxx
src/Autopilot/inputvalue.cxx
src/Autopilot/inputvalue.hxx
Filters now gather information about their input/output properties and
register with Highlight::add_property_property(). For example this makes
highlighting work on the 777, where pilot controls affect control surfaces
only via filters.
src/GUI/new_gui.cxx
Scan menus, keypresses and dialogs and register associations with
Highlight::add_*().
src/GUI/property_list.cxx
src/GUI/property_list.hxx
src/GUI/FGPUIDialog.cxx
Added <readonly> flag to property-list. If set, we don't show .. or . items
and don't respond to mouse/keyboard.
Used by fgdata's new Highlighting dialogue.
src/Model/acmodel.cxx
src/Model/acmodel.hxx
Visit the user aircraft's scene graph when it is loaded, gathering
information about osg::Node's that are animated by properties, and register
these associations with Highlight::add_property_node().
src/Viewer/renderer.cxx
When scanning for pick highlights, use Highlight::highlight_nodes() to
highlight animated objects under the pointer and related objects.
Since 'center on aircraft' is now persistent, we need to expliictly init
this value when showing the map. Thanks to Michael Danilov and Colin
Geniet for the fix.

GUIDs aren’t stable across different builds of the cache, which causes
odd behaviour when switching between stable and next. Use idents and
lat-lon instead, since these should be stable.
Use a transient index for the poly-lines. This avoids NavCache disk
contention when multiple copies of FG race after the rebuild completes.
Should reduce locking errors early in startup.
