| Summary | 0012687: Inserting a barcode does not work when build against Qt5.3.1 & Qt5.4 | ||||
| Description | Scribus (compiled against Qt5.3.1) does not allow to insert a barcode. After closing the barcode dialog most of the Menus are inactive (grayed-out) and every mouse-click is accompanied with an "error sound", similar to when one would click besides an open dialog. Works as expected with Qt5.2.1 but with the following message on CLI: 2014-09-13 19:06:22.314 Scribus[68821:507] modalSession has been exited prematurely - check for a reentrant call to endModalSession: | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | 1. open Scribus 2. open barcode dialog 3. select any barcode 4. click "OK" 5. try to place barcode --> not possible | ||||
| Additional Information | The following steps allow the barcode to placed: 1. create a new document with cmd+N (menu is inactive) 2. close newly created document 3. place barcode in original document | ||||
| Tags | No tags attached. | ||||
| Patch | No | ||||

Works as expected on Windows with 5.3.1. |
|
|
Confirmed on OSX 10.8.5 1.5svn r19502 Qt5.3.1 This maybe OSX specific ? |

I dont reproduce on Ubuntu 14.04 with Qt 5.3 and i dont reproduce neither with Qt 5.3.1 |
|
|
I partly reproduce... Some barcodes work and some others don't do anything. Here is the list of now working barcodes: EAN-8 Interleaved 2 of 5 Postnet Rationalized Codabar |

Hmm i retested and for a while i once believed i had issues too with EAN8 that didnt appear. But I later found the explanation : When choosing EAN8, the hint says "8 digits" and a loremipsum 8 digit number is pre-typed as an example. When typing in a new 8 digits number, the preview is displayed but when pressing OK, no barcode is inserted. That's because the 8th number should fit a value that is automatically computed as some sort of checksum of the 7 first digits. So with scribus UI one has to - type only 7 digits : the 8th is automaticaly computed, included in the preview where it can be checked, and when pressing OK the barcode is inserted OK. - type 7 + 1 digit, where the 8th is the correct checksum (no error), and then the barcode is inserted OK. But when typing in a wrong 8th digit (wrong = the 8th digit is not the correct checksum), then the barcode is NOT inserted and no error message is displayed. UI could be improved : - Hints could be improved with more details on the barcode type and details on what scribus expects as inputs. - Inputs could be more tightly controled. User could be prevented of typing more keys than strictly requested. - Validity checks could be made more stricts. Most of the time its not possible to press "OK" when the input is not ready and does not fit the choosen barcode pattern. Thats a good check but its not strict enouogh with EAN8 : OK should become grayed (not active) when an 8th digit is typed that is not equal to the expected checksum. With such improvements, there would be no need to issue an error message. |

On IRC, Chitz has tested this against Qt5.4 Alpha and bug still persists in OSX |
|
|
Still persists on OSX 10.9.5 1.5svn r19768 Qt5.4 stable |
|
|
Workaround put in place for ps importer and pdf importer in form of: +#ifdef Q_OS_OSX + #if QT_VERSION >= 0x050300 + showProgress = false; + #endif +#endif |

Semi fixed (original issue is fixed) New Issue: on OSX 10.9.5 1.5svn r19813 Qt5.4 I follow these steps: 1. open Scribus 2. open barcode dialog 3. select any barcode 4. click "OK" 5. hover mouse to the main Scribus window header 6. click the header to move window 6. hover the mouse over the canvas 7. can't add barcode (mouse changes state which subsequently renders menu items inactive.) |
|
|
Yeah, you're breaking the application flow.. unlikely we can fix that in 1.5.0. You'd find the same with all placement of vector objects I assume. |
|
|
OSX 10.10.3 1.5.1 r20253 |
|
|
Wait, I'm wrong. I can add barcodes. I'm running in to an issue specifically trying the 'Code-128' Barcodes. |
|
|
Resolving. Will open a separate issue for the code-128 barcodes |
