The following are some highlights of this patch:
- In the Worker we only extract a *subset* of the potential contents of the `Usage` dictionary, to avoid having to implement/test a bunch of code that'd be completely unused in the viewer.
- In order to still allow the user to *manually* override the default visible layers in the viewer, the viewable/printable state is purposely *not* enforced during initialization in the `OptionalContentConfig` constructor.
- Printing will now always use the *default* visible layers, rather than using the same state as the viewer (as was the case previously).
This ensures that the printing-output will correctly take the `Usage` dictionary into account, and in practice toggling of visible layers rarely seem to be necessary except in the viewer itself (if at all).[1]
---
[1] In the unlikely case that it'd ever be deemed necessary to support fine-grained control of optional content visibility during printing, some new (additional) UI would likely be needed to support that case.
This patch changes almost all viewer-components[1] to use "data-l10n-id"/"data-l10n-args" for localization, which means that in many cases we no longer need to pass around the `L10n`-instance any more.
One part of the code-base where the `L10n`-instance is still being used "directly" is the AnnotationEditors, however while it might be possible to convert (most of) that code as well that's not attempted in this patch.
---
[1] The one exception is the `PDFDocumentProperties` dialog, since the way it's currently implemented makes that less straightforward to fix without a lot of code changes.
- For the generic viewer we use @fluent/dom and @fluent/bundle
- For the builtin pdf viewer in Firefox, we set a localization url
and then we rely on document.l10n which is a DOMLocalization object.
Note that this patch implements the `SetOCGState`-handling in `PDFLinkService`, rather than as a new method in `OptionalContentConfig`[1], since this action is nothing but a series of `setVisibility`-calls and that it seems quite uncommon in real-world PDF documents.
The new functionality also required some tweaks in the `PDFLayerViewer`, to ensure that the `layersView` in the sidebar is updated correctly when the optional-content visibility changes from "outside" of `PDFLayerViewer`.
---
[1] We can obviously move this code into `OptionalContentConfig` instead, if deemed necessary, but for an initial implementation I figured that doing it this way might be acceptable.
Similar to other recent patches, see e.g. PR 15057, we don't want to add these kind of `id`s to DOM-elements since they shouldn't become "linkable" through the URL hash.
*Please note:* This patch can be tested, in the viewer, with e.g. `bug1737260.pdf` from the test-suite.
Rather than having to spell out the English fallback strings at *every* single `IL10n.get` call-site throughout the viewer, we can simplify things by collecting them in *one* central spot.
This provides a much better overview of the fallback l10n strings used, which makes future changes easier and ensures that fallback strings occuring in multiple places cannot accidentally get out of sync.
Furthermore, by making the `fallback` parameter of the `IL10n.get` method *optional*[1] many of the call-sites (and their surrounding code) become a lot less verbose.
---
[1] It's obviously still possible to pass in a fallback string, it's just not required.
This implementation is inspired by the behaviour in (recent versions of) Adobe Reader, since it leads to reasonably simple and straightforward code as far as I'm concerned.
*Specifically:* We'll only consider *one* destination per page when finding/highlighting the current outline item, which is similar to e.g. Adobe Reader, and we choose the *first* outline item at the *lowest* level of the outline tree.
Given that this functionality requires not only parsing of the `outline`, but looking up *all* of the destinations in the document, this feature can when initialized have a non-trivial performance overhead for larger PDF documents.
In an attempt to reduce the performance impact, the following steps are taken here:
- The "find current outline item"-functionality will only be enabled once *one* page has rendered and *all* the pages have been loaded[1], to prevent it interfering with data regular fetching/parsing early on during document loading and viewer initialization.
- With the exception of a couple of small and simple `eventBus`-listeners, in `PDFOutlineViewer`, this new functionality is initialized *lazily* the first time that the user clicks on the `currentOutlineItem`-button.
- The entire "find current outline item"-functionality is disabled when `disableAutoFetch = true` is set, since it can easily lead to the setting becoming essentially pointless[2] by triggering *a lot* of data fetching from a relatively minor viewer-feature.
- Fetch the destinations *individually*, since that's generally more efficient than using `PDFDocumentProxy.getDestinations` to fetch them all at once. Despite making the overall parsing code *more* asynchronous, and leading to a lot more main/worker-thread message passing, in practice this seems faster for larger documents.
Finally, we'll now always highlight an outline item that the user manually clicked on, since only highlighting when the new "find current outline item"-functionality is used seemed inconsistent.
---
[1] Keep in mind that the `outline` itself already isn't fetched/parsed until at least *one* page has been rendered in the viewer.
[2] And also quite slow, since it can take a fair amount of time to fetch all of the necessary `destinations` data when `disableAutoFetch = true` is set.
Note how the end of the `{PDFOutlineViewer, PDFAttachmentViewer, PDFLayerViewer}.render` methods share *almost* identical code, hence we can reduce some duplication by introducing the new `BaseTreeViewer` helper method here.
Furthermore, setting `this._lastToggleIsShow` can be made ever so slightly more efficient, since we don't care about the number of ".treeItemsHidden"-classes but only want to know if at least one exists.
*Besides, obviously, adding viewer support:* This patch attempts to improve the general API for Optional Content Groups slightly, by adding a couple of new methods for interacting with the (more complex) data structures of `OptionalContentConfig`-instances. (Thus allowing us to mark some of the data as "private", given that it probably shouldn't be manipulated directly.)
By utilizing not just the "raw" Optional Content Groups, but the data from the `/Order` array when available, we can thus display the Layers in a proper tree-structure with collapsible headings for PDF documents that utilizes that feature.
Note that it's possible to reset all Optional Content Groups to their default visibility state, simply by double-clicking on the Layers-button in the sidebar.
(Currently that's indicated in the Layers-button tooltip, which is obviously easy to overlook, however it's probably the best we can do for now without adding more buttons, or even a dropdown-toolbar, to the sidebar.)
Also, the current Layers-button icons are a little rough around the edges, quite literally, but given that the viewer will soon have its UI modernized anyway they hopefully suffice in the meantime.
To give users *full* control of the visibility of the various Optional Content Groups, even those which according to the `/Order` array should not (by default) be toggleable in the UI, this patch will place those under a *custom* heading which:
- Is collapsed by default, and placed at the bottom of the Layers-tree, to be a bit less obtrusive.
- Uses a slightly different formatting, compared to the "regular" headings.
- Is localizable.
Finally, note that the thumbnails are *purposely* always rendered with all Optional Content Groups at their default visibility state, since that seems the most useful and it's also consistent with other viewers.
To ensure that this works as intended, we'll thus disable the `PDFThumbnailView.setImage` functionality when the Optional Content Groups have been changed in the viewer. (This obviously means that we'll re-render thumbnails instead of using the rendered pages. However, this situation ought to be rare enough for this to not really be a problem.)
