With the removal of the global `PDFJS` object, in PDF.js version `2.0`, the viewer options are no longer as easily accessible as they previously were (and issues have been filed about this).
In particular, since the viewer files aren't necessarily loaded *immediately*, this means that `PDFViewerApplication`/`PDFViewerApplicationOptions` aren't necessarily available directly. By dispatching an event once all viewer files are loaded but *before* the viewer initialization has run, setting `AppOptions` during load (in custom implementations of the default viewer) should hopefully become a little bit easier[1].
---
[1] In hindsight, this should probably have been implemented when the global `PDFJS` object was removed...
The property is intended to contain a reference to a DOM element, which not only is nowhere to be found *now* but appears to never have existed in the first place.
As outlined in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1282759 the internal Firefox name for the feature is `entireWord`, hence that name is used here as well for consistency (with "Whole words" being limited to the UI).
Given existing limitations of the PDF.js search functionality, e.g. the existing problems of searching across "new lines", there's some edge-cases where "Whole words" searching will ignore (valid) results.
However, considering that this is a pre-existing issue related to the way that the find controller joins text-content together, that shouldn't have to block this new feature in my opionion.
*Please note:* In order to enable this feature in the `MOZCENTRAL` version, a small follow-up patch for [PdfjsChromeUtils.jsm](https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/file/tip/browser/extensions/pdfjs/content/PdfjsChromeUtils.jsm) will be required once this has landed in `mozilla-central`.
This builds on the scrolling mode work to add three buttons for joining
page spreads together: one for the default view, with no page spreads,
and two for spreads starting on odd-numbered or even-numbered pages.
This uses a whitelist, based on the locale, to determine where non-metric units should be used.
Note that the behaviour implemented here seem consistent with desktop PDF viewers (e.g. Adobe Reader), where the pageSizes are *always* displayed with locale dependent units rather than pageSize dependent ones (since the latter would probably be quite confusing).
The `appConfig` contains (mostly) references to various DOM elements, used when initializing the viewer components.
Hence `defaultUrl` seem like a slightly better fit for the new `AppOptions` abstraction, not to mention that it should thus be easier to set/modify it for custom deployments of the default viewer.
The way that various options are handled in the default viewer is currently a bit of a mess (to say the least). Some viewer options reside in the global `PDFJS` object, while others reside in `Preferences`. To make matters worse, some options even exist in both of the two.
Since the goal, with PDF.js version `2.0`, is to reduce our usage of the global `PDFJS` object, we'll instead want pass in the options when initializing the viewer components and when calling API methods (such as `getDocument`).
However given the current state of things in the default viewer, this wouldn't be exactly easy to implement. Hence this patch, which attempts to consolidate the way that viewer (and later API) options are handled by introducing a `AppOptions` singleton that provides *one* centralized way of interacting with the various options in the default viewer.
By making use of modern CSS features, in this case [CSS variables](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/Using_CSS_variables), implementing sidebar resizing is actually quite simple. Not only will the amount of added code be fairly small, but it should also be easy to maintain since there's no need for complicated JavaScript hacks in order to update the CSS. Another benefit is that the JavaScript code doesn't need to make detailed assumptions about the exact structure of the HTML/CSS code.
Obviously this will not work in older browsers, such as IE, that lack support for CSS variables. In those cases sidebar resizing is simply disabled (via feature detection), and the resizing DOM element hidden, and the behaviour is thus *identical* to the current (fixed-width) sidebar.
However, considering the simplicity of the implementation, I really don't see why limiting this feature to "modern" browsers is a problem.
Finally, note that a few edge-cases meant that the patch is a bit larger than what the basic functionality would dictate. Among those is first of all proper RTL support, and secondly (automatic) resizing of the sidebar when the width of the *entire* viewer changes. Another, pre-existing, issue fixed here is the incomplete interface of `NullL10n`.
*Please note:* This patch has been successfully tested in both LTR and RTL viewer locales, in recent versions of Firefox and Chrome.
Fixes 2072.
If we want to (eventually) make it possible to resize the sidebar, then having its width indirectly affect the toolbar is going to wreck havoc on the media queries used to show/hide buttons in the main toolbar (since many of them depend on the toolbar state, and thus its width).
Updating all of the media queries dynamically with JavaScript seems like a non-starter, given that it'd cause *very* messy code. It thus seem to me that we'd need to fix the position of the sidebar, to have any hope of (in the short term) addressing issue 2072.
Hence, I'm suggesting that the we always layout the sidebar in a consistent vertical position, and only animate the `viewerContainer` rather than the entire `mainContainer`.
Fixes 4052.
Fixes bug 850591.
With the current way that the `HandTool` is implemented, if someone would try to also add a Zoom tool (as issue 1260 asks for) that probably wouldn't work very well given that you'd then have two cursor tools which may not play nice together.
Hence this patch, which attempts to refactor things so that it should be simpler to add e.g. a Zoom tool as well (given that that issue is marked as "good-beginner-bug", and I'm not sure if that really applies considering the current state of the code).
Note that I personally have no interest in implementing a Zoom tool (similar to Adobe Reader) since I wouldn't use it, but I figured that it can't hurt to make this code a bit more future proof.
In the first commit in PR 8203, I changed how the `DownloadManager` was included/initialized in `GENERIC`/`CHROME` builds.
The change was prompted by the fact that you cannot have conditional `import`s with ES6 modules, and I wanted to avoid bundling the general `DownloadManager` into the various Firefox specific build targets.
What I completely missed though, is that the new code meant that `download_manager.js` will now be pulling in the *entire* viewer (through `app.js`).
This is a *really* stupid mistake on my part, since it causes the `dist/build/pdf_viewer.js` used with the viewer components to now include basically the entire default viewer.
The simplest solution that I could come up with, is to add a `genericcom.js` file (similar to the `firefoxcom.js`/`chromecom.js` files) which will be responsible for importing/initializing the `DownloadManager`.
There's really no good reason to attempt to adjust the `max-height` of the `SecondaryToolbar` when it's not visible, so let's not do that anymore.
Also, we can listen for the `resize` event in `SecondaryToolbar`, to avoid having to manually call the `max-height` adjust function from various event handlers in `app.js`. Please note that by always adjusting the `max-height` when the toolbar is opened we no longer need the `localized` event, since it was mainly used to set a correct inital `max-height` value.
Move the Chromium-specific URL rewriting code to the top of viewer.js
(before the PDF.js library) to make sure that the URL is as expected.
This ensures that variables that synchronously depends on the URL
(e.g. PDFViewerApplication.initialBookmark) are properly set.
Functionality wise, `ensureThumbnailVisible` is essentially just a shorthand for `scrollThumbnailIntoView`. (And note that `PDFViewer` doesn't implement a `ensurePageVisible` method.)
The only remaining usage of `PDFThumbnailViewer_ensureThumbnailVisible` is inside `PDFPresentationMode`, which introduces an otherwise unnecessary `PDFThumbnailViewer` dependency there.
We're already relying on the `presentationmodechanged` event, in various files, to track the state of Presentation Mode. Thus we can simply listen for that event in `PDFSidebar` too, and update the thumbnails if necessary.
The sidebar code has, except for minor fixes/additions (such as attachments), been largely untouch for years.
To avoid having a bunch of sidebar code sprinkled throughout viewer.js, this patch moves the sidebar code into a separate file (pdf_sidebar.js), similar to how most other functionality has been moved in the last few years.
Besides simply moving code around, this patch also has the added benefit that we now keep track of the sidebar state (not just opened/closed).
This now makes it possible to handle both `Preferences` *and* `ViewHistory` settings for the sidebar state in a cleaner way, preventing strange and confusing interactions between the two.
Changes `PDFOutlineView`/`PDFAttachmentView` to be initialized once, since we're always creating them, and refactor their `render` methods to instead pass in the `outline`/`attachments`.
For consistency with other "classes", the `PDFOutlineView`/`PDFAttachmentView` are renamed to `PDFOutlineViewer`/`PDFAttachmentViewer`.
Also, make sure that the outline/attachments are reset when the document is closed. Currently we keep the old ones around until the `getOutline`/`getAttachments` API calls are resolved for a new document.
To reduce code duplication, the initialization code now uses the `reset` method.
Also, this patch moves `charactersToNormalize` out of `PDFFindController`, since it seemed better suited to be a "constant".
This is required to be able to use it in the annotation display code,
where we now apply it to sanitize the filename of the FileAttachment
annotation. The PDF file from https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1230933 has shown that some PDF generators include the path of the file rather than the filename, which causes filenames with weird initial characters. PDF viewers handle this differently (for example Foxit Reader just replaces forward slashes with spaces), but we think it's better to only show the filename as intended.
Additionally we add unit tests for the `getFilenameFromUrl` helper
function.
For documents with different page sizes, ensure that the correct page becomes visible on load when e.g. the 'page' hash parameter was provided (bug 1191279, issue 6393)
Currently this constant is present in `viewer.js`, but it is not used there at all. Instead, it is used in `view_history.js` where we have a global for it. We might as well move the constant to `view_history.js` as that is the only place where it is used, thereby removing a global and an unused constant from `viewer.js`.
This issue is actually, in a sense, "caused" by the fact that the API/viewer supports partial loading/rendering. Previously when the *entire* document was always fetched before rendering begun, we knew all page sizes in advance and this issue didn't exist.
Now we use the size of *one* page in order to set the initial size of every page, until we've fetched the pages and thus know their correct sizes.
This means that during loading the size of the pages can change, which may cause the initial position to become scrolled out of view.
The most naive solution to this problem would perhaps be to delay setting the initial position on load for all documents, until all pages are fetched. However I think that would be a *really* bad idea, since doing so would make the initial rendering slower and make it feel sluggish for most documents.
Since there is generally no way of knowing if a document has different sized pages prior to loading it, we can only check once the pages are available.
Hence this patch, which treats documents with different sized pages as a special case, by re-applying the initial position when all pages have become available.
- This commit adds a '>' before every outline item that has subitems.
- Click on the '>' to collapse all subitems under that item (which turns
the '>' in a 'v').
- Shift + click expands/collapses all descendant items under that tree.
- Double-clicking on the "Show Document Outline" button in the toolbar
expands/collapses all outline items.
Currently in `switchSidebarView` there is code that attempts to handle the `outline` or `attachments` being disabled. However, given the placement of it, that code does not actually accomplish anything. Even more strange is the fact that the way that the buttons are disabled, that code won't ever be hit.
(Looking back with `git blame`, it seems that it has never worked as you'd expect.)
Hence this patch, which correctly disables switching to the `outline` or `attachments` views when they are disabled.
Once PR 6314 restores the 'pagemode' hash parameter, this patch thus makes it impossible to switch to a disabled sidebar view by modifying the 'pagemode' hash of an already loaded document.
This regressed in 0ef6212b64.
Since the 'pagemode' hash parameter requires certain viewer functionality (e.g. thumbnails and an outline) in order to work, it seemed reasonable to move the functionality from `pdf_link_service.js` into `viewer.js`.
Similar to `namedaction`, this patch makes use of an event to forward the 'pagemode' parameter.
Since the zoom value should be in percent, using `PDFViewer.currentScale` will be wrong by a factor of 100, potentially causing the zoom level of the document to become wrong on load.
*This fixes a regression from PR 6192.*
Under some circumstances, the `resize` event handler in `viewer.js` is fired before the scale has been set. This can lead to PDF documents being rendered at the wrong zoom level when they are opened.
It seems that a way to reliably trigger this is to, using the Firefox addon, open a PDF file that triggers the `fallback` bar, in a new background tab (i.e. middle clicking on a link, or use the context menu).
Prior to PR 6192, we checked the selected option in the `scaleSelect` dropdown instead. Since `pageAutoOption` is selected by default in `viewer.html`, this should explain why the issue wasn't visible previously.
Fixes#6106
To avoid future regressions, two new unit tests were added:
1. A new PDF based on the report from #6106, which contains an
OpenAction of type JavaScript and a string "this.print({...}".
2. An existing PDF from https://bugzil.la/1001080 (from #4698).
Although it does not matter, since we don't execute the JavaScript code,
I have also changed "print(true)" to "print({})" since the print method
takes an object (not a boolean). See "Printing PDF documents", page 62:
http://adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/js_developer_guide.pdf
The special handling of the 'custom' scale value is only relevant for the `scaleSelect` dropdown in the standard viewer, hence I think that it should be placed in `viewer.js` instead.
After the creation of `PDFViewer`, its `_resetView` method takes care of resetting, among other things, the page number property. Hence we don't need to set `pdfViewer.currentPageNumber = 1;` here any more, and the comment is no longer accurate either.
*With this patch we're getting very close to fixing 6158.*
The only use-case for `PDFViewerApplication.updateScaleControls` is to try and avoid calling `selectScaleOption` from the `scalechange` event handler in viewer.js.
This will *only* happen when the user has manually changed the scale by using the `<select>` dropdown, which means that in reality this is just a micro optimization. Furthermore, `selectScaleOption` is only skipped for the "named" scale values (e.g. `auto`, `page-actual`, `page-fit`, `page-width`), thus further reducing the value of this code.
Also, since we're updating the scale `<select>` dropdown from an event handler, we're currently depending on the event being dispatched (and handled) completely before the next `scalechange` event. Relying on the execution order of the code in this way, even though it currently works, seems unfortunate since it *could* potentially cause the internal scale value and the UI from getting out of sync.
*This is the next step towards fixing 6158.*
This patch removes the dependency on the state of the scale `<select>` dropdown from the `resize` event handler, and instead uses the (in `PDFViewer`) stored `currentScaleValue`.
I believe that the way this code is currently written is purely for historical reasons, since originally *only* the numerical scale was stored internally (hence there was no other way to access the scale value).
However, since we now store the scale value, we should use it instead of quering the DOM. This helps ensure that the internally stored scale value is always accurately displayed in the UI (which should be good since, after the creation of `PDFViewer`, the `<select>` DOM element is now updated by an event handler).
*The next step towards fixing issue 6158.*
We can just as well access `pdfViewer.currentScaleValue` directly in `PDFViewerApplication`, instead of having a helper function which just acts as a wrapper for it.
This patch is the the first step towards to addressing issue 6158, which will be done by refactoring the code for setting/getting the current scale in `viewer.js`.
Before this patch, zooming in/out via the scroll wheel caused the page
to be zoomed relative to the upper-left corner of the page, i.e. the
upper-left corner of the page stays at a fixed position.
After this patch, the page is zoomed relative to the cursor position,
i.e. after zooming in/out, the part under the cursor 'has not moved'.
This only applies when the page does not fit in the viewport, because
pages smaller than the viewpoer are always centered.
The reason that this code can be moved is that the `if (this.loading && page === 1)` check, in the `pagechange` event handler in viewer.js, is never satisfied since `this.loading` is not defined in that scope.
This *could* be considered a regression from PR 5295, since prior to that `this.loading` was using the `PDFViewerApplication` scope (or `PDFView` as it were).
However, I don't think that we need to fix that since we've been shipping this code in no less than *three* Firefox releases (uplifted in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1084158), without breaking the world.
An explanation of why the `pagechange` code works, despite `this.loading === undefined`, is that `set currentPageNumber` (in `PDFViewer`) returns early whenever `this.pdfDocument` isn't set. This check is, for all intents and purposes, functionally equivalent to checking `PDFViewerApplication.loading`.
Hence we can move the page switching code into `PDFViewer`, and also remove `PDFViewerApplication.loading` since it's not used any more.
(The `this.loading` property was added in PR 686, which was before the current viewer even existed.)
*Note:* The changes in this patch should also be beneficial to the viewer `components`, since requiring every implementer to provide their own `pagechange` event handler just to get `PDFViewer.currentPageNumber` to actually work seems like an unnecessary complication.
Fixes https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1170063.
The bug only mentions the <kbd>Meta</kbd> key, but given that a similar situation can occur for <kbd>Ctrl</kbd>, it seemed reasonable to also handle that case in the same patch.
The only possible caveat with the patch is that because of the use of `shadow`, things won't work perfectly if either of the prefs are changed *while* the viewer is active. In this case a reload is required in order for it to work correctly, but given that the issue this patch fixes should be quite rare anyway, that seems OK.
