A variety of improvements to the image editor, such as:
- New, fullscreen styling
- Smoother lines
- Better text and sticker handling
- Improved color picker with a history pallette
- New highlighter tool
Previously, SQLCipher's memory usage would grow indefinitely, up until
it hit the end of the cursor. We've now switched to a release where the
memory used by the cursor can be bounded.
If a user is upgrading to use the SQLCipher database (which happened
back in 4.16, so this only applies to relatively dormant users who are
just getting back into the app) and received a new "user X joind signal"
message, then it could screw up the migration. So we're just dropping
these notifications that happen in this narrow window.
The sticky header cache was keeping views across rotations, causing them
to render incorrectly afterwards. I added a method to invalidate the
header layouts after rotation.
Fixes#7890.
First, FTS index contents do not need to be exported. They will be recreated naturally.
Second, we can't export the secret FTS tables, or SQLite will think it's corrupted.
Fixed an issue where jumbomoji were not properly being rendered
when using system emoji. Also fixed an issue where the text
content wasn't properly being recalculated when the view is
resized.
Fixes#7875
1. Switch to using default text rendering if there's no emoji present in
the string.
2. Reduce redudant redraws by skipping of setText() calls for identical
strings.
Together, these two changes should reduce the vast majority of
flickering we see with EmojiTextView ellipsizing.
I think I was initially lured into searching by rank because it gives
the illusion of providing the "best match". However, in practice, FTS
never gives back "bad" matches with low ranks -- all of the results it
returns will contain your query in some form (most commonly a direct
substring, but they do take some liberties if you have multiple tokens
in your queries). Given that, in general, more recent search results are
in fact more relevant, we can sort by date exclusively and get a better
ordering overall.
If a search result snippet spans two lines, we only show the first line.
For the purpose of display, we first remove all newlines in order to
make the full snippet visible.
Previously, we'd always use the recipient of the message record, which
was incorrect for messages sent to groups. Now we always use the
recipient for the matching thread record.
Fixes#7823
Glide will use the dimensions of the target ImageView as the dimensions
for the image it's loading. This caused problems in the case of
ThumbnailView, as we were constantly changing the ImageView dimensions,
meaning Glide may not have the most recent values (it may be called in
between measure calls, for instance).
To solve this, we now will always override the default image dimensions
when we load an image. If no dimensions are present, we will default to
the layout_width and layout_height of the ThumbnailView.
Fixes#7810
Using the singleLine attribute will make the TextView report that the
lineCount is always 1, regardless of actual text length. This breaks our
manual ellipsize calculation. Because you can't actually read the
singleLine attribute at runtime, I've switched relevant usages of
singleLine to use maxLines=1 (relevant usages are EmojiTextViews where
singleLine was set and ellipsize was set to 'end').
Fixes#7744
Notifications for replies will no longer display as a "Media Message" if
they do not contain media. Instead, they will just contain the reply
text.
Fixes#7798
Sending shared contacts isn't backwards-compatible, so we want to have a
few releases where receiving is enabled, but not sending. That way, when
we enable sending, most users should be able to properly receive the
shared contact messages.
When you share a vCard from an external app (like the Contacts app) into
Signal, we'll now convert it to a pretty Shared Contact message and
allow you to choose which fields of the contact you wish to send.
The "contact" option in the attachments tray now brings you through an
optimized contact sharing flow, allowing you to select specific fields
to share. The contact is then presented as a special message type,
allowing you to interact with the card to add the contact to your system
contacts, invite them to signal, initiate a signal message, etc.
There's a chance that the AsyncTask that retrieves a quoted message's
position could finish after the fragment is detached, which would cause
a crash. I've changed it so if this case occurs, the result is ignored.
Also, I noticed that when searching the message table, if a quote can't
be found, we'd end up traversing the entire table. To prevent this from
taking forever on large message tables, I've limited it to searchin only
what is currently present in the adapter.
Fixes#7756
Did a refactor to better organize the camera flipping code. Also, I
wanted to make sure we handle the cases where the user doesn't have two
cameras (or no cameras, for that matter). In these cases, we just don't
show the appropriate buttons.
