Previous layout didn't enable the character counter for entered text, so
it was difficult for the user to see how much they had used.
Fix that. To get the layout to play nicely switch to a ConstraintLayout
with a chain to split the dialog roughly 50/50 between the image and the
caption views.
While I'm here:
- Remove the margins around the image, so it's clearer, and is more
consistent with the "set focus" dialog.
- Set focus on the description immediately, so the keyboard pops up.
- Remove focusability from the image, since the user shouldn't be able
to interact with it.
Previous code passed the actionable status, so "Open boost author"
actually opened the account that posted the original status.
Pass the status representing the boost, so the correct account is
opened.

Users report that copying items can be difficult using Talkback.
Make this easier in the dialogs that appear for links, mentions, and
hashtags by using a dedicated adapter that displays a "Copy" button at
the end of each item.
Fixes#1038
Previous code checked the item was a `StatusViewData`, which is not true
for notifications, and meant the links, mentions, and hashtags
accessibility features were not available.
Change this to `IStatusViewData`, which notifications do implement.
Fixes#1037
Previous code only inflated the timeline fragment menu if swipe/refresh
was enabled -- a hold over from when "Refresh" was the only menu item.
There are other menu items now, and they were also hidden. Fix this by
always inflating the menu.
Provide two new lab preferences for controlling the layout and content
of main navigation tabs.
Tabs can now be justfied to start, end, or fully (if room). Start/end
justification may put the tabs closer to the user's fingers, depending
on how they hold the device. Fully justified uses the full width of the
tab bar (if the tabs don't require scrolling).
The content can be set to one of:
- Icon only (previous behaviour)
- Text only
- Icon with text beside
- Icon with text below
Fixes#336
Previous code didn't send the language to ComposeActivity when editing a
scheduled status so it always appeared to be dirty. This prompted the
user to save/discard changes when backing out, even if they hadn't made
any changes.
Fix this by collecting the language code when fetching scheduled posts
and passing it in `ComposeOptions`.
Previous code accepted the `scheduledAt` value as a String, and kept it
as a String (including when serialising as part of a draft). Then it was
converted to an actual Date for display.
Refactor to keep it as a Date for as long as possible. Moshi decodes
Dates correctly over the network, and the database is configured to
serialise Dates as Longs.
This necessitates two migration steps to preserve any existing
`scheduledAt` values for drafts. The first step adds a new column to
store the date as a Long and copies over existing data. The second step
replaces the old column with the new column.
For some users this feature has too many false positives, particularly
when emojis are used.
Provide a preference that enables/disables the feature, default to
"enable".
When the user is prompted the dialog has a third "Don't ask again"
option. If chosen the preference is set to prevent future prompts and
the status is sent as-is.
Fixes#893
GoToSocial servers don't support scheduled posts; they return the wrong
type, and this can cause a loop of posting.
The GoToSocial bug to implement scheduled posts is
https://github.com/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial/issues/1006.
Fix this by adding a new server capability for scheduled post support,
using it for most servers, and disabling it for GoToSocial.
If scheduled post support is not available for an account:
- The "Scheduled posts" menu option is not shown.
- The scheduling button (clock) when composing a post is hidden, so the
user cannot set scheduling parameters.
Fixes#963
The MaterialTimePicker library has a bug that results in the "Cancel"
and "Ok" buttons on the dialog being cut off.
See
https://github.com/material-components/material-components-android/issues/3584
Work around this by updating their layout params and explicitly setting
the "bottomToBottom" constraint to their parent.
This wasn't acting as a preference.
It presented as a switch. If the user toggled it some notification
settings were changed for all accounts.
It wasn't clear what was changed, and if the user changed some of those
settings back the switch position did not change (it couldn't, you
couldn't meaningfully represent a partial change using a single switch).
Since the user has full control over the notification filters on a
per-account basis remove this "preference" to reduce confusion.
Fixes#935
Seen the following crash in user reports:
```
com.google.android.gms.common.api.ApiException: 17:
API: ModuleInstall.API is not available on this device.
Connection failed with:
ConnectionResult{statusCode=SERVICE_INVALID, resolution=null, message=null}
```
Doesn't appear to be properly documented anywhere I can find. To work
around this catch exceptions when checking for MLKit modules or
installing them and return defaults.
Previous code assumed the active account could always be determined from
the account manager.
This causes a few problems.
1. The account manager has to handle the case where there is no active
account (e.g., the user is logging out of the last account). This meant
the `activeAccount` property had to be nullable, so every consumer of
that property either used it with a `let` or `!!` expression.
2. The active account can change over the life of the UI component, for
example, when the user is switching accounts. There's a theoretical race
condition where the UI component has started an operation for one
account, then the account changes and the network authentication code
uses the new account.
3. All operations assume they operate on whatever the active account is,
making it difficult to provide any features that allow the user to
temporarily operate as another account ("Boost as...", etc).
This "ambient account" was effectively global mutable state, with all
the problems that can cause.
Start to fix this. The changes in this commit do not fix the problem
completely, but they are some progress.
Each activity (except LoginActivity) is expected to be launched with an
intent that includes the ID of the Pachli account it defaults to
operating with. This is `pachliAccountId`, and is the *database ID*
(not the server ID) of the account. This is non-null, which removes one
class of bugs.
This account is passed to each fragment and any piece of code that has
to perform an operation on behalf of this account. It's not used in
most of those places yet, that will be done over a number of followup
PRs as part of modernising each module.
