The new unlock dialogue seems to confuse users
as to what the purpose of the key file is. This
patch changes the generic "Select file..." affordance
to the more explicit "Select key file..." and adds
a help button to the label just like the one we
already have for the hardware key. Furthermore,
it prevents the user from using the KDBX file as its
own key file (since that would never work anyway).
The change breaks existing translations on purpose
(instead of simply adjusting the en_US locale)
in order to force translators to update this string
for their languages.
Resolves#3678
With this change we get rid of the confusing key component checkboxes.
Now a component is either there or not (if left empty). There is
no redundant distinction between "unset" and "emtpy" anymore.
For compatibility with older databases that have "empty" passwords,
KeePassXC will ask if the user wants to retry with an empty password
if unlocking failed and the password field was left blank.
Besides these functional changes, the widget's layout has been
rearranged to be more compact, less stretched out (e.g. input fields
do not fill the full window width anymore), and more user-friendly
by providing a help tooltip for the hardware key field and accessible
descriptions for screen readers.
This patch implements a new database wizard to guide users through the process
of setting up a new database and choosing sane encryption settings.
It also reimplements the master key settings to be more
user-friendly. Users can now add, change, or remove individual composite
key components instead of having to set all components at once. This
avoids confusion about a password being reset if the user only wants to
add a key file.
With these changes comes a major refactor of how database composite keys and key
components are handled. Copying of keys is prohibited and each key
exists only once in memory and is referenced via shared pointers. GUI
components for changing individual keys are encapsulated into separate
classes to be more reusable. The password edit and generator widgets
have also been refactored to be more reusable.
