So why should I use an empty length as default?
It is a concept I introduced to clean-up odditieds in the InsetBox code.
Assume that you want to indicate "I do not have a width". It looks
reasonable to indicate this by the value "". And instead of looking
inside the Length object to know whether it is default, you can use
Length::empty(), which is different from Length==0.
Where do you see "-9.99col%" in my commits? You confused me.
I was wrong, it was -999% actually. From your commit 22ad7e43:
+ // "-999col%" is the code for no width
+ if ((params.width).asString() == "-999col%")
+ widthCB->setCheckState(Qt::Unchecked);
I hope that you can see how using such an arbitrary value as default is
not as good as something that says "Hi, I am a llength and I do know
that I am the default value, because I am empty".
