国际化语言显示文本

文本溢出处理

› What is it and why is it important?

Display dynamic text and translations that are too long to fit in limited screen space. Must-have for dynamic UIs.

› What’s new?

QML property: Text.elide

Enum values: Text.ElideNone (default), Text.ElideLeft, Text.ElideMiddle, Text.ElideRight

› What should I know?

-Behavior aligned with Qt

-Text width (or right and left anchors) must be set

-Works with multiline text if Text has an explicit height

文本自动变形

› What is it and why is it important?

Automatically wrap text when it’s wider than the available space. Must-have for dynamic UIs and multi-language applications.

› What’s new?

QML property: Text.wrapMode

Enum values: Text.NoWrap(default), Text.WordWrap, Text.WrapAnywhere, Text.Wrap

› What should I know?

-Behavior aligned with Qt

-Text width (or right and left anchors) must be set.

-Not available for StaticText

图片优化及资源管理

Qt for MCUs处理图片

-未压缩的RGB格式速度很快，但闪存成本非常高。

-PNG格式高压缩率闪存占用空间低，但需要更多的RAM来保存解压缩的数据。

-RLE压缩，轻量级，低闪存和低RAM，并且提供足够快的解压缩时间。

RLE压缩

OPTIMAL USE OF HARDWARE：Improved management of graphical resources

› Why is this valuable?

Achieve UX goals while keeping hardware costs to a minimum

› What’s new?

-New CMake APIs for graphical resource configuration

-Fine-grained placement of individual resources

› Why is it important?

Reaching the desired frame rate and fitting the GUI in memory often requires an optimized placement of resources

OTA GUI UPDATES：Replaceable resources in deployed applications

› Why is this valuable?

-Cheaper device firmware update process for specific use cases

-Full software recertification is not needed

› What are the use cases?

-GUI style update

-Device (re-)branding

-Downloadable GUI skins

› What’s new?

-Image resources can be replaced without re-flashing the complete application

-CMake build target to compile resource binaries

新的错误处理机制

错误处理

› What is it and why is it important?

APIs to be notified of errors in GUI code and react appropriately. Enables robust and traceable applications.

› What are the use cases?

Some examples:

-detailed logging for debugging or device diagnostic

-restart the device on memory allocation failure in QUL

› What’s new?

C++ API: Qul::setErrorHandler(), QUL_ASSERT()

Enum: QulError

› What should I know?

-The default error handler prints an error message in the console.

-Custom handlers can be implemented for custom logging or mitigation actions.

代码生成工具qmlprojectexporter

技术预览: qmlprojectexporter

› What is it and why is it important?

New ways to generate C++ code from a QML project, enabling new and better workflows. Possibility to build QUL applications in any IDE or build system.

› What’s new?

New project file format: .qmlproject

New command-line tools: qmlprojectexporter, platform exporter

› What should I know?

-Optional feature, users can still use the old way of building QUL applications for compatibility reasons

-Available as Tech Preview, APIs can change in v2.3
