Description

The ElementBoxWidget #1185 turns out to be an important building block within the Lumiera UI, since it could basically be used for anything with a Placement... -- which means, this topic is going out of hand. So, for the time being, we need to confine ourselves to groundwork only

  • Requirement analysis ✔
  • set up a constructor scheme
  • working implementation draft
  • implement simple »box with a label« UI

working on that now, with the goal of using this first draft

  • for the track head labels
  • for the preliminary clip represntation, which can be dragged around within the timeline tracks

first draft version of ElementBoxWidget can be constructed and successfully attached to a track.

Note: had to lower the requirements for the survey of ElementBoxWidget performance (in order to avoid a logical dependency cycle) — however this does not mean that just a draft implementation will be sufficient, we also need #1196 to get indicative measurments

looks like I'll postpone the design work for a content renderer framework to start work on the »Playback Vertical Slice« rather soon — it is very likely that the latter task helps to define the requirements for content rendering more clearly.

In its current shape, the ElementBoxWidget is able to display an Icon and a text label, and can be switched to time-constrained layout, which is enough to start using it as building block in the UI...

In 3754302/Lumiera:

Timeline: use ElementBoxWidget to display the track header

This both demonstrates the layout of the TrackHeadWidget
and puts ElementBoxWidget into intended use to indicate
the scope of a track and to provide a placement icon and
an expander/collapser button.
