If the option "Enforce icon margin" is selected, application window
icons will be selected or scaled so that they only use 75% of the
available icon_size.
Even if the feature is not enabled, this change will scale down
large application icons to icon_size, so that icons can be used
that were rejected by the previous implementation of findBestIcon.
(Example: The Qt Creator icon never showed before, because it is
only provided in 128x128 resolution. Now it's visible.)
The current findBestIcon function usually selects an icon image
that almost completely fills up the (default) 64x64 pixels of an
icon. As Dan noted in the function, the icon images should use only
75% of the available space, which would result in room for the
miniwindow title and better overall aesthetics.
This feature option provides for enabling such an automatic "icon
shrinking" functionality.
Note: This commit only introduces the new option, not the actual
image shrinking.
To make some room for an additional icon option (yet to be committed)
the options group for selecting the iconification animation is
replaced by a popup button. This allows for adding at least two more
checkboxes in the options and makes adding new animation styles less
painful.
When opening the "Icon and Initial Workspace" panel of the Attribute
Inspector, the Miniwindow Image and the corresponding text field were
always empty, even if an icon had been selected, applied and saved
before. The file name was not loaded from the database on startup
of the inspector window.
With this change, the icon and the text field are properly set on
startup of the inspector window.
