Summary0011374: [PATCH] typographic spaces
DescriptionTypographic spaces are additional spaces before or after some chars set in preferences.
Specially usable in French.
In Preferences and Doc Preferences user can define chars and value of additional space he want provided before/after of them. See attached pictures (sorry for Polish GUI).

I've looked at the typography screencaptures. By chance the polish GUI only deals with allready english or french existing labels !

This new feature enables to add automaticaly some white space after or before ponctuation marks. Isn't ? I think Scribus can really do better with automatic typographic enhancements, and your patch tackles this issue.

I have not tested the patch but i have some questions :

Is it 50% or 7O% of "normal space" width ? of "n space" ? of "m space" ?
or of "normal glyph width" ?
Is it inserting a new space glyph, or is it just increasing width of actual
glyph, as a margin before and after (tracking distance) ?

I guess its a non breaking space.
But before a (, the space should be breakable (but not the space after).
and after a ), space should be breakable too, (but not the space before)
so as a consequence, it's necessary to specify whether space is breakable or not !

Beside : does it replaces or delete previously existing space if one is allready there ?
It should.

Is the feature launched automaticaly or is it called through a menu option ?
I think launching through menu might be better, because it should be possible to correct the results, and i dont see how it can be possible when its automatic.

When launched through menu option, user should be able to specify
"whole text", "linked text frame chaine", "selected frame" or "selection"
(as shortwords does).

It would be nice to be able to specify not only single glyph to be managed,
but a list of glyphs or whort words sharing the same typographic requisitess.
Example : !,?,;,: as is done with shortwords plugins. A list of glyph ... or words ! or regexp ?

This patch somehow competes a bit with shortwords isn't ?
I dont like the idea of having 2 separate plugins or features both to manage spaces and typography.

Shorwords does not have a nice UI : only a text file to set the parameters,
and shortwords only insert allways same non breaking space,

but shortwords accept lists of glyphs (it is quiker to specify lots of patterns)
and shorwords manages one different list for each langage.

Values means % of normal space for current font and are added to glyph.
Using should be smart as it is only glyph width modification and breaking rules does not apply here and does not touch any spaces or other chars near selected one.
Feature is a document preference and touch whole text in document for now.
There is possibility to provide string of chars with same values to add.

IMHO it is nothing related to ShortWords, as it does not providing any addition only change some normal spaces into non-breaking ones.

Feature was requested by French users as they always want to have a space before question marks (and other similar chars), but for example in Polish some very small distance is here also expected (by old typography school at least, but as I know only one very old and not used already application had such feature).

I know that it may be better to have full manual control of each glyph in text or separate values for languages. But IMHO it will slow down text layouting and should be provided when it will be optimised. So for now I propose it as document property.

And one small notice for team - this report is only notice that such feature is ready and I don`t force merging of it into trunk if team is not sure about it. It is scratch for future use.
But it will be merged into ScribusECE soon if someone want to test and use it (I want).

This feature can have some real nice use in automatizing small space addition
but it can have bad effects if automation is badly controlled :
it should not teach bad habbits to the user (not teach him to never use spaces because this tool puts them nicely) and it must do nothing and not interfere in case the user has allready taken control and has taken the time and the pain to allready insert some special space before.

This new typo function provides very interesting fine tuning of spaces so it should overwrite basic existing normal spaces allready there, but it should not overwrite the manualy fine-tuned spaces like thin spaces or non breaking space or other special spaces that have been inserted by hand with conscious choice.

When typing "first question ? Second question?", the spaces resulting of this new treatment should be the same before the '?'.

I agree 100% here.

JLuc, do you test this feature or your reports are based on wishfull thinking only?

I have not tested the patch yet.
My previous note is my conlusion following cezariece's explanations on irc and our discussion about it.

Think of it as a quality test check :

1- do the spaces before both '?' appear to be the same after feature has dealt with following input : "first question ? Second question?" (Answer should be YES. As a consequence : feature should test whether there is a space before or after, before acting)

2- do the writer require to omit correct spaces so as to benefit of feature (Answer should be NO so as not to teach bad habbits to the user. If 1- is OK, then 2- should be OK too)

3- do the feature keep special spaces and do nothing in cases and in place wher some special spaces have been inserted ? (should be YES. As a consequence : feature should test whether there is a special space before or after, before acting)

No spacing is added before/after char if before/after it is any space (recognized by Qt function QChar::isSpace(); I test that any spaces Scribus use are recognized properly).

Ad 1 - additional space will be added only to second '?'
Ad 2 - if rules require spaces (as char) then why anyone will expected additional spacing for chars?
Ad 3 - spaces are added to glyphs only and text is not touched (corrected) in any way, any char is added or deleted

So :

- no 'space' glyph is added to the text, but some width is added to the glyph (before and after it but "inside it"). The glyph is displayed (and exportedtoPDF) with that bigger width when required.

- glyph is made wider before or after only if there is no space before or after.

So the answers to my previous questions are :

1) yes or no, depending on whether the user has inserted a correct thin space before the first '?' : this features does not change the allready there spaces. So if the user has correctly inserted a thin space, then it will be OK. If the user has inserted a normal space, then it will appear wider than the space emulated by the widened glyph.

2) user has to either use special thin spaces OR to not use any spaces and leave the feature deal with them.

3) yes, as for normal spaces [ and also for non breaking spaces ; thin spaces ; non breaking thin spaces ; other spaces since isSpace is replaced with isWhiteChar in new commit http://www.git.scribus-ece.info/?p=ScribusECE;a=commit;h=a93898133397b172841c55a39be12414d7fb61b1].
