Currently `PDFLinkService` requires access to a `PDFHistory` instance in order for it to work correctly (and to avoid errors). If we want `PDFLinkService` to be more useful in custom viewers, I don't think that we actually want to force it to have a `PDFHistory` instance.
Hence this patch, which contains a very simply approach to make `PDFHistory` optional.
Reuse the existing getOutputScale() machinery to render and/or rescale
thumbnail images to the native display resolution. Fixes blurry thumbnails on
HiDPI displays making it a lot easier to make out the content.
During A/B testing we found a significant preference (increased engagement
time, reduced downloads of original PDF for local viewing) for the version that
doesn't animate loading thumbnails.
Profiling shows that the transition effects hit at a pessimal time when the
compositor is busy rendering the main PDF page view, and rendering thumbnail
previews, causing the main scroll view to stutter. With the transition removed
scrolling is perceptibly smoother in Chrome and Firefox. We also hypothesize
that the transition effects added to a perception of slowness but presumably
the aforementioned stutter is the primary issue here.
Having recently spent some time staring at the PasswordPrompt, while fixing issue 6010, I felt that the current border style does not really give a good visual indication that the input field actually has focus.
The current appearance was first introduced in PR 3527; but I don't know if having a different border style in Overlay dialogs was intentional, or if it just "happened".
However, given the colour palette used in the viewer UI, I think that using the same border style for all .toolbarFields makes sense.
*This patch addresses an issue I stumbled upon while working on rewriting the history implementation.*
Currently the `updateviewarea` UI event doesn't include the `location`, and in the event handler in viewer.js we instead reach into `PDFViewer` to retrieve it. Not only does this seem conceptually wrong, it also makes the `updateviewarea` event less useful in general since it's currently only possible to access the `location` if you have a reference to the `PDFViewer`.
To me, this simply appears to be an oversight in the implementation, hence this patch which adds `location` to the `updateviewarea` event. It also changes `location` to be a "private" property of `PDFViewer`.
*This is a follow-up to PR 5966.*
Now that https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1151931 has landed, we're unfortunately in a situation where Firefox warns about `unreachable code after return statement` multiple times when using the PDF.js code in `node make server` mode.
I'm really sorry about the churn in this code!
However I don't think it's a good idea to let Firefox continue to printing these warnings in the console, since it increases the risk of missing actual errors.
This patch:
- Simplifies the way fields are passed to the document properties overlay
- Simplifies the way fields are filled internally in the document properties overlay
- Avoids passing a document properties reference to the secondary toolbar
- This patch uncomments a large portion of the Firefox specific code in viewer.js, by using a preprocessor "trick", to enable linting. Doing this actually uncovered some issues, e.g. variables defined multiple times.
- This patch also fixes a spelling error, `adobe pdfwritter` -> `abobe pdfwriter`, in the `KNOWN_GENERATORS` list used when reporting telemetry data in Firefox.
*Please note:* there's still some Firefox specific code that is commented out, but it's usually just one (or two) lines of code. Hence the risk that errors creep in should be much lower, compared to entire code-blocks.
This patch:
- Puts public methods at the top of the file
- Puts private methods below the public methods and marks them with an underscore
- Adds JSDoc comments to the class
- Adds setDocumentAndUrl to avoid having to handle that in `viewer.js`
This patch:
- Passes in a reference to the current PDFThumbnailViewer, which is used to ensure that the current thumbnail becomes visible when exiting PresentationMode.
- Changes the way that the event listeners for the contextmenu items are defined, to avoid passing in a reference to the SecondaryToolbar.
- Ensures that |supportsFullscreen| always returns a boolean.
Currently `supportsFullscreen` will, when the browser supports the fullscreen API, return e.g. `function mozRequestFullScreen()` instead of `true`.
- Simplifies the |click| handler code when PresentationMode is active.
This code has been obsolete ever since PR 2919 landed.
- Removes hack used to workaround a bug in WebKit browsers, which caused |mousemove| events to be fired when the cursor changed.
This was fixed close to a year ago, see http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=103041.
This patch:
- Adds a couple of utility methods to `PDFViewer` to enable checking `presentationModeState` without cumbersome comparisons.
- Disentangles `PresentationMode` from `PDFHistory` and `HandTool`, by adding event listeners for `presentationmodechanged` to both of them.
- Adds a utility function to `PDFViewerApplication` for requesting PresentationMode.
- Prevents initialization of `PresentationMode` if the browser does not support the fullscreen API.
The line that this patch removes has been commented out since 2012 (!), see commit c8a6a9ba00.
Also, since the patch is trivial, I'm fixing the formatting of a comment to stop [GitHub from marking it with a red color](https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/blob/master/web/viewer.html#L394) (and IE from complaining).
After the refactoring in PR 5678, the B2G viewer now prints the following in the console:
```
ReferenceError: DownloadManager is not defined
```
This will obviously not matter once the B2G viewer is replaced with the new components-based one. But until that happens, I think it makes sense to just stub the class to suppress the error.
