The board search input field of the "Select Other Board and Port" dialog uses placeholder text to explain the usage of
the field to the user.
All other placeholder text in the IDE's UI uses sentence case. This specific placeholder was the exception, using
unpleasant caps lock instead.
The inconsistency is resolved by changing the placeholder text to the standard sentence case.
The text of the Arduino IDE user interface has been localized to 12 languages.
Before localization can be accomplished, internationalization must be done in the application's code base:
- Set up infrastructure to export localization data
- Pass all target strings to that infrastructure
While the first of these tasks is completed, the second was not completed for several strings which are part of the user
interface.
Those outstanding strings are hereby internationalized and will be made available for localization.
Selecting "Help > Environment" from the Arduino IDE menus opens a page containing usage information for the Arduino IDE
application in the browser.
Previously, the URL used was the same as that of in Arduino IDE 1.x:
https://www.arduino.cc/en/Guide/Environment
The documentation from that page was written for Arduino IDE 1.x. Even though the UI of the two versions is aligned for
the most part, some advancements made for the 2.x major version series resulted in some differences. This means that
documentation targeted at Arduino IDE 1.x is not always applicable to Arduino IDE 2.x.
Fortunately, documentation is now available for each major version series of the IDE. So resolution is only a matter of
pointing the menu item at the correct URL.
* make dialogs scroll when scaling up the UI
* add unit of measure to settings step input
* wrap settings dialog items when scaling up the UI
* fix dialogs width when scaling up the UI
* rework board config UI to make it scale up better
* refactor ide updater dialog: move buttons outside the dialog content
* refactor ide updater dialog: clean-up code and rename events
* fix board config dialog title case and and remove double ellipsis
The Arduino IDE's "Auto Format" feature is configured to produce the standard Arduino sketch formatting style by
default.
The Arduino IDE editor's default settings are compliant with that style. However, the user may adjust the editor
settings. In this case, the Arduino IDE automatically adjusts the Auto Format configuration to align with the user's
preferences.
The formatter configuration is consumed by several other projects in addition to the Arduino IDE. For this reason, the
configuration is hosted and maintained in a centralized location, from which it is pulled by all projects that use it.
Previously, the adjustment of the Arduino IDE formatter configuration according to the editor settings was integrated
into the configuration object itself. This meant that the standardized configuration had to be modified each time it was
pulled in to sync from the upstream source.
Moving the base formatter configuration object to a dedicated file, separated from the handling and adjustment code
allows syncs to be done by simply replacing the existing configuration file with the one automatically generated by the
CI system of the repository where the source configuration is hosted.
Arduino IDE has dependencies on the clangd C++ language server and ClangFormat code formatter tools. These are updated
periodically to benefit from the ongoing development on those projects.
The update procedure requires operations in three different repositories:
- Generate builds in arduino/clang-static-binaries
- Validate and update formatter configuration in arduino/tooling-project-assets
- Update metadata in arduino/arduino-ide
Previously, this was undocumented and the procedure existed only in the form of "institutional memory".
The procedure is now fully documented in the readme of arduino-ide-extension.
