There's no benefit in having multiple windows share the process.
But there's a huge disadvantage because running the app a 2nd time with
different environment variables will open a window in the first process
instead and discard the variables.
And my use of GSK_RENDERER hates that.
The goal is to fix all the context that influences the rendering
of text nodes in the node file. This will help with better font
testing.
The newly accepted properties are
hint-style: none/slight/full
antialias: none/gray
We are omitting font options and values that aren't supported
in GSK or have no influence on the rendering.
Note that these settings will get incorporated in the PangoFont
that gets set on the resulting text node.
Parser tests included.
It is a bit annoying that one has to specify the glyph width
when specifying glyphs numerically for a text node, since this
information really is part of the font.
Make the parser more flexible, and allow to specify just the glyph
ids, without an explicit width. In this case, the width will be
determined from the font.
With this, glyphs can now be specified in any of the follwing
ways:
glyphs: "ABC"; (ASCII)
glyphs: 23, 45, 1001; (Glyph IDs)
glyphs: 23 10, 100 11.1; (Glyph IDs and advance widths)
glyphs: 23 10 1 2 color; (with offsets and flags)
Tests have been updated to cover these variants.
Hint in the text how to reenable auto-reload. A button for this
is not practical in the notification itself, since it will just
crash again if you reenable it without editing the content.
We want to use the same header in the inspector, so move it to
the toplevel. And since it is no longer for demos only, rename
it to profile_conf.h, and also rename the build option back
to profile.
This will let us store complete test fonts inside node files,
as data: urls. You can also use a file: url to refer to a local
file.
The syntax is as follows:
text {
font: "FONT DESCRIPTION" url("data:font/ttf;base64,FONT DATA");
}
with the url being optional.
The Vulkan renderer can just be public API, because it doesn't expose
any Vulkan-specific APIs.
And it can just exist when compiled without Vulkan, because it can fail
to realize.
Also move get rid of the gsk/vulkan/gskvulkanrenderer.h header. It was
experimental and isn't necessary now that the renderer is included via
gsk.h.
We want to introduce a new one next.
Technically, this breaks API, because gsk_vulkan_renderer_new() is going
away, but practically, we're gonna bring it back once we introduce that
renderer in a few commits.
