In looking at a profile, I noticed in Marker chart that there's an animation
for loading-icon.gif even if this icon isn't visible.
This patch doesn't completely remove it but just slightly postpones it.
This option was added specifically for third-party users, but has never been used in the PDF.js project itself. Furthermore there's no preference that can be used to enable it, and you need to provide the `removePageBorders` option when initializing a `PDFViewer`-instance.
This patch thus get rid of a little bit more unused code in the Firefox PDF Viewer.
This way we don't have a lot of useless divs and we let the css engine handle the
creation/destruction of the :after pseudo-element.
It'll help to slightly improve performance when zooming.
When a css variable is update in a node then all the children under this
node are updated.
In order to avoid to update all the UI when a page is rescaling, this
patch moves the --scale-factor from the :root to the viewer container.
In most of the cases, showing the loading icon is useless because
it's for a very short time, consequently it doesn't bring any useful
information for the user.
After a delay (400ms), the icon is shown in order to inform the user
that the viewer isn't stuck but it's doing something.
Right now, the visible pages are redrawn for each scale change.
Consequently, zooming with mouse wheel or in pinching can be pretty janky
(even on a desktop machine but with a hdpi screen).
So the main idea in this patch is to draw the visible pages only once zooming
is finished.
- As in the annotation layer, use percent instead of pixels as unit;
- handle the rotation of the editor layer in allowing editing when rotation
angle is not zero;
- the different editors are rotated counterclockwise in order to be usable
when the main page is itself rotated;
- add support for saving/printing rotated editors.
- each annotation has its coordinates/dimensions expressed in percentage,
hence it's correctly positioned whatever the scale factor is;
- the font sizes are expressed in percentage too and the main font size
is scaled thanks a css var (--scale-factor);
- the rotation is now applied on the div annotationLayer;
- this patch improve the rendering of some strings where the glyph spacing
was not correct (it's a Firefox bug);
- it helps to simplify the code and it should slightly improve the update of
page (on zoom or rotation).
This new CSS variable will allow us to simplify a couple of different viewer components, since we no longer need to use JavaScript-based hacks and can directly set the CSS rules instead. In particular:
- The `BaseViewer`-handling, used as part of the code that will center pages *vertically* in PresentationMode, can be simplified.
By using CSS to control the height of the "dummy"-page we avoid unnecessarily invalidating the scale-value, which can reduce *some* unneeded re-rendering while PresentationMode is active.
- The `SecondaryToolbar.#setMaxHeight`-method, and its associated parameters, are no longer necessary and can be completely removed.
Note that in order for things to work correctly in general, the new `--viewer-container-height` CSS variable must potentially be updated on any window-based "resize"-event (even when there's no zooming). While this is currently only done in the default viewer, that shouldn't be an issue since neither PresentationMode nor Toolbar-functionality is included in the "viewer components".
This CSS variable is only used together with the `annotationCanvasMap`-functionality in the canvas-code, however its value can be *trivially* computed by using the older `--zoom-factor` CSS variable together with the `PixelsPerInch`-structure.
Rather than having *two different* CSS variables that are this closely linked, it seems better to simplify things by using just one CSS variable instead.
*This patch can be tested e.g. with the `sizes.pdf` document in the test-suite.*
While this patch isn't necessarily the best solution, e.g. it might be possible to solve this with *only* CSS, it's what I was able to come up with to address an old issue.
The solution here re-uses the `spread`-class in PresentationMode, since that one already takes care of centering pages *vertically*, together with a dummy-page that takes up the entire height of the window.
Finally, some PresentationMode-related CSS-rules are also simplified slightly, since the changes in PR 14112 (using Page-scrolling) allows some clean-up here.
This patch preserves the old behaviour of appending a `loadingIcon`-div to all pages that are not yet loaded/rendered. However, the actual `loadingIcon`-spinner (i.e. the `loading-icon.gif` image) will only be displayed on *visible* pages to improve performance.
To avoid having to iterate through all pages in the document, which doesn't seem like a good idea for a PDF document with thousands of pages, we use a combination of the currently visible *and* cached pages to toggle the `loadingIcon`-spinner.
- First step to fix https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1737260;
- several interactive pdfs use the possibility to hide/show buttons to show different icons;
- render pushbuttons on their own canvas and then insert it the annotation_layer;
- update test/driver.js in order to convert canvases for pushbuttons into images.
- add an option to enable XFA rendering if any;
- for now, let the canvas layer: it could be useful to implement XFAF forms (embedded pdf in xml stream for the background and xfa form for the foreground);
- ui elements in template DOM are pretty close to their html counterpart so we generate a fake html DOM from template one:
- it makes easier to translate template properties to html ones;
- it makes faster the creation of the html element in the main thread.
Note that these changes were done automatically, using `gulp lint --fix`.
With this rule, we'll thus enforce a *consistent* formatting of zero-lengths in our CSS files.

This patch purposely starts small, by removing IE-specific code from various JS/CSS files in the `web/` folder.
There's obviously lots of potential for additional clean-up, especially the removal of no longer necessary polyfills in `src/shared/compatibility.js`, however that will require some care considering that certain polyfills may also be necessary for e.g. Node.js or the Chromium-extension as well.
Generally speaking, once we start removing polyfills it's probably a good idea to consult the compatibility information on https://developer.mozilla.org/ and also https://caniuse.com/ first. (Deciding on the lowest supported Chromium version, for the extension, would also seem like a good idea.)
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 patch makes the naming consistent with the `TextLayerBuilder`, and also the new `AnnotationLayer`, and should thus help reduce possible confusion when working with the code.
Please note that the files were renamed using `git mv`, in order to preserve blame.
This is similar to the already existing, separate, CSS file used for the `textLayer`, and it's necessary in order for the `pageviewer` components example to actually show annotations correctly.
