It's relatively common to create a widget and then add a background to
it. Using layout.Stack causes bunch of heap allocs, which we would like
to avoid whenever we can.
This adds layout.Background which is roughly the same as:
layout.Stack{Alignment: layout.C}.Layout(gtx,
layout.Expanded(background),
layout.Stacked(widget)
)

goarch: amd64

This commit introduces the material.Theme.Face field, which will automatically
populate the Font.Typeface in every text widget created using a constructor function
in package material.
Signed-off-by: Chris Waldon <christopher.waldon.dev@gmail.com>
This commit adds back support for loading font collections, which we
lost when switching to the harfbuzz-based shaper last January. In
addition, this commit takes advantage of our new font loading library's
metadata facilities to automatically construct text.FontFaces for all
fonts within a collection. This is significantly more ergonomic for
users, and can be used to load single fonts with automatic metadata
detection as well.
I've exposed a opentype.Face.Font() method that can be used to get the
font metadata for a given face as well, though you have to type assert to
see it:
var myFace text.Face
if asOpentype, ok := myFace.(opentype.Face); ok {
myFont := asOpentype.Font()
}
The one problem with this approach is that the font variant field always
be automatically populated. Mono font detection is supported, but
other variants like SmallCaps are more complicated and may need to be
expressed differently in the future (smallcaps is a feature that any font
file can have, not necessarily a separate font file). See this [0] upstream
issue for details.
Additionally, in order to avoid import cycles, I've moved the declarations
of font attributes to package font. You can fix your code automatically to
refer to the new definitions by running the following:
gofmt -w -r 'text.FontFace -> font.FontFace' .
gofmt -w -r 'text.Variant -> font.Variant' .
gofmt -w -r 'text.Style -> font.Style' .
gofmt -w -r 'text.Typeface -> font.Typeface' .
gofmt -w -r 'text.Font -> font.Font' .
gofmt -w -r 'text.Regular -> font.Regular' .
gofmt -w -r 'text.Italic -> font.Italic' .
gofmt -w -r 'text.Thin -> font.Thin' .
gofmt -w -r 'text.ExtraLight -> font.ExtraLight' .
gofmt -w -r 'text.Light -> font.Light' .
gofmt -w -r 'text.Normal -> font.Normal' .
gofmt -w -r 'text.Medium -> font.Medium' .
gofmt -w -r 'text.SemiBold -> font.SemiBold' .
gofmt -w -r 'text.Bold -> font.Bold' .
gofmt -w -r 'text.ExtraBold -> font.ExtraBold' .
gofmt -w -r 'text.Black -> font.Black' .
gofmt -w -r 'text.Hairline -> font.Thin' .
gofmt -w -r 'text.UltraLight -> font.ExtraLight' .
gofmt -w -r 'text.DemiBold -> font.SemiBold' .
gofmt -w -r 'text.UltraBold -> font.ExtraBold' .
gofmt -w -r 'text.Heavy -> font.Black' .
gofmt -w -r 'text.ExtraBlack -> font.Black+50' .
gofmt -w -r 'text.UltraBlack -> font.ExtraBlack' .

This commit separates the types for interactive and non-interactive text within
package widget. widget.Selectable is used for all interactive text. widget.Label
is used for all non-interactive text. There is no longer a field on widget.Label
to provide it with a Selectable. If you want selectable text and are not relying
upon the material pacakge API, you need to create widget.Selectables instead of
widget.Labels. The material package's LabelStyle API is unchanged.

This commit supports rendering opentype glyphs containing bitmap data instead of
color data. In order to support returning the shaped bitmap glyphs from the Shaper's
Shape() method, it has gained a second return parameter, an op.CallOp. Adding
that CallOp immediately after or immediately before painting the returned path
will display the bitmap glyphs.
The consequences of supporting colored glyphs forced changes upon the widget APIs
for widgets that display text. Previously text always had a fixed paint material,
so we could rely upon the caller setting the material (e.g. adding a paint.ColorOp)
before painting the glyphs and everything would work. Now that we display image-
based glyphs, we end up changing the painting material to an image midway through
displaying text. This is an awkward consequence of how we currently manage the
painting material, and to work around it widgets now accept an op.CallOp that
is expected to set the proper paint material. Text widgets will use that op.CallOp
before painting text (or other paint operations) to ensure that they are painting
with the proper materials.
This, in turn, changed the APIs for laying out widget.Editor, widget.Label, and
widget.Selectable, and eliminated the need for them to accept a callback (the
callback was only really to set the colors). Dropping that callback function
allowed me to consolidate widget.Label to only need one exported Layout method,
and allowed me to unexport the PaintText, PaintCaret, and PaintSelection methods
from widget.Editor and widget.Selectable. Those methods are useless in the public
API now that they don't need to be invoked after applying a color operation.
Callers of the raw text shaper API will need to make the following changes:
- Where before you used:
var ops *op.Ops // Assume we have an operation list.
var shaper *text.Shaper // Assume we have a shaper.
var col color.NRGBA // Assume we have a text color.
var glyphs []text.Glyph // Assume we have already filled a slice of glyphs.
shape := shaper.Shape(glyphs)
paint.FillShape(ops, col, clip.Outline{Path:shape}.Op())
- Now you should do:
shape, call := shaper.Shape(glyphs)
paint.FillShape(ops, col, clip.Outline{Path:shape}.Op())
call.Add(ops)
Callers of the widget.{Label,Selectable,Editor} APIs will need to make the
following changes:
- Where before you used:
var gtx layout.Context // Assume we have an operation list.
var shaper *text.Shaper // Assume we have a shaper.
var textCol color.NRGBA // Assume we have a text color.
var selectCol color.NRGBA // Assume we have a selection color.
var ed widget.Editor // Assume we have an editor.
var sel widget.Selectable // Assume we have a selectable.
// Lay out an editor.
ed.Layout(gtx, shaper, text.Font{}, unit.Sp(30), func(layout.Context) layout.Dimensions {
// Paint the editor.
})
// Lay out a selectable.
sel.Layout(gtx, shaper, text.Font{}, unit.Sp(30), func(layout.Context) layout.Dimensions {
// Paint the selectable.
})
// Lay out an interactive label.
widget.Label{}.LayoutSelectable(gtx, shaper, text.Font{}, unit.Sp(30), "hello", func(layout.Context) layout.Dimensions {
// Paint the label.
})
// Lay out a non-interactive label.
widget.Label{}.Layout(gtx, shaper, text.Font{}, unit.Sp(30), "hello")
- Now you should do:
// Capture setting the text paint material in a macro.
textColMacro := op.Record(gtx.Ops)
paint.ColorOp{Color: textCol}.Add(gtx.Ops)
textMaterial := textColMacro.Stop()
// Capture setting the selection paint material in a macro.
selectColMacro := op.Record(gtx.Ops)
paint.ColorOp{Color: selectCol}.Add(gtx.Ops)
selectMaterial := selectColMacro.Stop()
// Lay out an editor.
ed.Layout(gtx, shaper, text.Font{}, unit.Sp(30), textMaterial, selectMaterial)
// Lay out a selectable.
sel.Layout(gtx, shaper, text.Font{}, unit.Sp(30), textMaterial, selectMaterial)
// Lay out a label (no difference between interactive and non-interactive)
widget.Label{}.Layout(gtx, shaper, text.Font{}, unit.Sp(30), "hello", textMaterial, selectMaterial)
Callers of the material package API do not need to make any changes.

This commit restructures the entire text shaping stack to enable lines of shaped text to
have non-homogeneous properties like which font face they belong to and which direction
a segment of text is going.
The text package now provides a concrete type text.Shaper which can be used to convert
strings into sequences of renderable text.Glyphs. At a high level, the API is used
like this:
// Prepare some fonts.
var collection []text.FontFace
// Make a shaper with those fonts loaded.
shaper := text.NewShaper(collection)
// Shape a string.
shaper.LayoutString(text.Parameters{
PxPerEm: fixed.I(12),
}, 0, 100, system.Locale{}, "Hello")
// Iterate the glyphs from that string.
for glyph, ok := shaper.NextGlyph(); ok; glyph, ok = shaper.NextGlyph() {
// Convert the glyph data into a path. In real uses, convert batches of glyphs
// rather than single glyphs to reduce the number of individual paths and offsets
// required to display your text.
shape := shaper.Shape([]text.Glyph{glyph})
// Offset the glyph to the position it declares within its fields. This will
// automatically handle correct bidirectional text glyph positioning.
offset := op.Offset(image.Pt(glyph.X.Floor(), int(glyph.Y))).Push(gtx.Ops)
// Create a clip area from the shape of the glyph.
area := clip.Outline{Path: shape}.Push(gtx.Ops)
// Paint whatever the current color is within the glyph's shape.
paint.PaintOp{}.Add(gtx.Ops)
area.Pop()
offset.Pop()
}
This API will transparently handle both font fallback (choosing appropriate fonts
from those loaded when the primary font doesn't contain a required glyph) and
bidirectional text (mixed left-to-right and right-to-left text). Glyphs are
iterated in order of the input runes, not their visual order, but proper use
of the provided offsets will ensure that text always displays correctly.
Thanks to Elias Naur for suggesting this glyph iterator strategy. It let us cut
through a lot of accumulated complexity from trying to match our old text APIs,
meaning that this change actually is a net negative change in lines of code.
This commit consumes the upstream github.com/go-text/typesetting/shaping API
now that my prior work is merged there, removing the need for the font/opentype/internal
package entirely.
As part of my efforts, I fuzzed both the low-level text shaping stack and the
editor widget extensively. I've committed regression tests found that way into
the appropriate testdata files to ensure the fuzzer re-checks them.

The unit.Value is a struct and thus more inconvenient to use than its
underlying float32 type. In addition, most uses don't need a general
value, but rather a specific unit given by the context. This change
replaces unit.Value with two float32 units, Dp and Sp. It also changes
variables and parameters of unit.Value to a specific unit type matching
the context. That is, unit.Dp everywhere except for text sizes which are
in Sp.
Switching to typed float32s has multiple advantages
- They can be constants:
const touchSlop = unit.Dp(16)
- Casting untyped constants is no longer necessary:
insets := layout.UniformInset(16)
- Calculation with values is natural:
func (s ScrollbarStyle) Width() unit.Dp {
return s.Indicator.MinorWidth + s.Track.MinorPadding + s.Track.MinorPadding
}
The main API change is that calls to gtx.Px must be replaced with either
gtx.Dp or gtx.Sp depending on the unit.

The op.Save and Load methods exist to support the need for
transformation, clip, pointer area state to behave as stacks. For
example, layout needs to apply an offset to its children but not
subsequent operations.
Before this change, op.Save and Load were used to save and restore the
state:
ops := new(op.Ops)
// Save state.
state := op.Save(ops)
// Apply offset.
op.Offset(...).Add(ops)
// Draw with offset applied.
draw(ops)
// Restore state.
state.Load()
A drawback with the op.Save mechanism is that there is no direct
connection between the state change and the saving and loading of state.
This causes confusion as to when a Save/Load is needed and who is
responsible for performing them, which leads to subtle bugs and over-use
of Save/Loads.
This change gets rid of the general state stack and replaces it with
per-state stacks. There is now a stack for transformation, clip, pointer
areas, and they can only be restored by the code pushing state to them.
The example above now becomes:
ops := new(op.Ops)
// Push offset to the transformation stack.
stack := op.Offset(...).Push(ops)
// Draw with offset applied.
draw(ops)
// Restore state.
stack.Pop()
For convenience, transformation also be Add'ed if the stack operation is
not required.
Simple state such as the current material no longer has a way to be
restored; it is assumed the client of a PaintOp adds their desired
material operation before it.
API change: replace op.Save/Load with explicit Push/Pop scopes for
op.TransformOps, pointer.AreaOps, clip.Ops.
To ease porting, this change retains a version of op.Save/Load that
saves and restores the transformation and clip stacks. It also retains
an Add method for clip.Op.

color.RGBA has two problems with regards to using it.
First the color values need to be premultiplied, whereas most APIs
have non-premultiplied values. This is mainly to preserve color components
with low alpha values.
Second there are two ways to premultiply with sRGB. One is to premultiply
after sRGB conversion, the other is before. This makes using the API more
confusing.

The funcs replace stack.Push and macro.Record, which become private.
This makes stack and macro faster to write, in particular for stacks
where you can just write the following line to save and restore the
state :
defer op.Push(ops).Pop()
This usage requires Push to return a pointer (since Pop has a pointer
receiver), or else the code doesn't compile.
For consistancy, I tried to do the same for op.Record, but this implied
to turn all the MacroOp fields into pointers, and this caused some
panics. As a result, op.Record doesn't return a pointer.
An other side effect pointed by Larry Clapp: StackOp and MacroOp are not
re-usable any more, you have to allocate a new one for each usage, using
the described funcs above.

Change the definition of Widget from the implicit
type Widget func()
to the explicit functional
type Widget func(gtx layout.Context) layout.Dimensions
The advantages are numerous:
- Clearer connection between the incoming context and the output dimensions.
- Returning the Dimensions are impossible to omit.
- Contexts passed by value, so its fields can be exported
and freely mutated by the program.
The only disadvantage is the longer function literals and the many "returns".
What tipped the scales in favour of the explicit Widget variant is that type
aliases can dramatically shorten the literals:
type (
C = layout.Context
D = layout.Dimensions
)
widget := func(gtx C) D {
...
}
Note that the aliases are not part of the Gio API and it is up to each user
whether they want to use them.
Finally the Go proposal for lightweight function literals,
https://github.com/golang/go/issues/21498, may remove the disadvantage
completely in future.
Context becomes a plain struct with only public fields, and its Reset is
replaced by a NewContext convenience constructor.
