Slow browsing and exiting (ex: closing History) could
be noticed when the memory usage is already high (as the
GC has a lot of memory to visit). Delaying it to after
the new screen is shown limits the feeling of slowness.
Really needed these :resetLayout() (as done in Menu.lua)
when stuff is right aligned (otherwise, first computation
of x-offset, when there was no content, being Screen.width,
would stick, and would draw the content off-screen on the
right - no issue noticed when left-aligned as the offsets
would stay being 0 whether there is content or none).
bidi.lua:
- Revert "Alias everything to Bidi.nowrap() when in LTR UI,
as using LTR isolates seems uneeded when already LTR" (part
of a628714f) which was a wrong assumption: we need proper
wrappers for all things paths. Enhance some of these wrappers.
- Fix GetText RTL wrapping which was losing empty lines and
trailing \n.
- Wrap all paths, directories, filenames in the code with
these wrappers.
- Wrap all book metadata (title, authors...) with BD.auto(),
as it helps fixing some edge cases (like open/close quotation
marks which are not considered as bracket types by FriBiDi).
(Needed some minor logic changes in CoverBrowser.)
- Tweak hyphenation menu text
- Update forgotten SortWidget for UI mirroring
- KoptConfig: update "justification" index for RTL re-ordering,
following the recent addition of the page_gap_height option.
Lots of code was doing some renderText calls to get the size
of some text string, and truncate it to some width if needed,
with or without an added ellipsis, before instantiating
a TextWidget with that tweaked text string.
This PR fixes/adds some properties and methods to TextWidget
so all that can be done by it. It makes the calling code
simpler, as they don't need to use RenderText directly.
(Additionally, when we go at using Harfbuzz for text rendering,
we'll just have to update or replace textwidget.lua without
the need to update any higher level code.)
Also:
- RenderText: removed the space added by truncateTextByWidth
after the ellipsis, as it doesn't feel needed, and break
right alignment of the ellipsis with other texts.
- KeyValuePage: fix some subtle size and alignment issues.
- NumberPickerWidget: fix font size (provided font size was
not used)
* Make the cover thumbnail respect the cover's AR in the widget
* Add a "Mark as read/unread" button in the FM's longpress menu.
* Make sure the cover_info cache is wiped if necessary (sidecar purge/BookInfo cache clear).
Going with partial ends up being problematic on REAGL devices in a
number of different ways.
On Kindle (at least pre EPDCv2), it's slightly flickery because of the
whitespace and the boldface.
On Kobo, it's slow when anything else tries to queue an update (i.e.,
flashing the chevrons).
Which is a non-issue on the Forma because then it's fast when using
pageturns to navigate, but, still :D.
The obvious downside is we lose the automatic flash after n refresh,
which is potentially annoying on older, non-reagl devices.
It's not really on issue on REAGL devices, especially on EPDCv2.
It was doing a full document load to get the cover. It now does
the faster "only metadata" load.
Also move the trick of setting a default font in CreDocument, so
that all callers of document:loadDocument(false) benefit from it.
Prevent crash when no cover image is available (even if the cache
says it has one, the file may have been updated and doesn't have
it anymore).
* Enable HW dithering on supported devices (Clara HD, Forma; Oasis 2, PW4)
* FileManager and co. (where appropriate, i.e., when covers are shown)
* Book Status
* Reader, where appropriate:
* CRe: on pages whith image content (for over 7.5% of the screen area, should hopefully leave stuff like bullet points or small scene breaks alone).
* Other engines: on user-request (in the gear tab of the bottom menu), via the new "Dithering" knob (will only appear on supported devices).
* ScreenSaver
* ImageViewer
* Minimize repaints when flash_ui is enabled (by, almost everywhere, only repainting the flashing element, and not the toplevel window which hosts it).
(The first pass of this involved fixing a few Button instances whose show_parent was wrong, in particular, chevrons in the FM & TopMenu).
* Hunted down a few redundant repaints (unneeded setDirty("all") calls),
either by switching the widget to nil when only a refresh was needed, and not a repaint,
or by passing the appropritate widget to setDirty.
(Note to self: Enable *verbose* debugging to catch broken setDirty calls via its post guard).
There were also a few instances of 'em right behind a widget close.
* Don't repaint the underlying widget when initially showing TopMenu & ConfigDialog.
We unfortunately do need to do it when switching tabs, because of their variable heights.
* On Kobo, disabled the extra and completely useless full refresh before suspend/reboot/poweroff, as well as on resume. No more double refreshes!
* Fix another debug guard in Kobo sysfs_light
* Switch ImageWidget & ImageViewer mostly to "ui" updates, which will be better suited to image content pretty much everywhere, REAGL or not.
PS: (Almost 💯 commits! :D)
Mostly all that have a close button at top right, that may
be hard to reach or hit for some people: TOC, Bookmarks, History,
KeyValuePage (Book information, Statistics...), Book status...
Added full refresh on diagonal swipe where it was missing.
CoverMenu: removed onSwipe override, as it had become the same as
Menu a few months ago.
* Switch all initial highlights to "fast" update
i.e., everything that does an invert
Plus a few other things that refresh small UI elements onTap
Re #3130
* Tweak refreshtype for a number of widgets:
* Fix iconbutton dimen
* Make touchmenu flash on close & initial menu popup. Full-screen on close.
* Use flashing updates when opening/closing dictionary popup. Full-screen on close.
* Switch FileManager to partial.
It's mostly text, and we want flash promotion there.
* Make configdialog & menu flash on exit
* Make FLWidget flash on close
* virtualkeyboard: flash on layout change & popup.
* Potentially not that great workaround to ensure we actually see the
highlights in the FM's chevrons
* Flash when closing BookStatus Widget
* Optimize away a quirk of the dual "fast" update in touchmenu
* Promote updates to flashing slightly more agressively.
* Document what each refreshtype actually does.
With a few guidelines on their optimal usecases.
* Switch remaining scheduleIn(0.0) to nextTick()
* Tighter scheduling timers
Shaving a hundred ms off UI callbacks...
* Cache FFI C Library namespace
* Ask MuPDF to convert pixmaps to BGR on Kobo
Fix#3949
* Mention koxtoolchain in the README
re #3972
* Kindle: Handle *all* fonts via EXT_FONT_DIR instead of bind mounts insanity
* Make black flashes in UI elements user-configurable
(All or nothing).
* Jot down some random KOA2 sysfs path
* [toggleswitch] Add support for key navigation to this widget
Add the onFocus an onUnfocus event handler
add a new function that just circle the switch if not touch event is
detected
* Add key navigation to the readermenu
The shortcut is still Alt-gr on sdl, to be defined on Kindle
* Remove the old method of handling the Press key.
Now the event is handled by the main widget who implement focusmanager
and then dispatched to the currently focused item.
Modify the fine font tuning only for non touch-devices
See : https://github.com/koreader/koreader/pull/3785#issuecomment-375306466
This adds a button to the Tap Plus menu, that allows
extracting metadata and cover images for books in
current directory. Info about the process and questions are
initially shown and asked, and the process can be aborted at
any moment.
Speedup initialization (needs to be done only once, and avoid
saving current mode to sqlite each time) and reader-to-filebrowser
switch, by doing a single rendering (instead of 2 or 3 previously).
ListMenu: cache sidecar file parsing results (page/percent
completed) for the browsing session duration.
Fix "No choice available" when on last page and changing
to a display mode with less pages.
We previously disabled cache, but that may cause excessive
memory usage with big books. We now use a temporary
cache directory, that we clean when no more needed.
Made the onHold buttons table similar to the one of File browser.
Added "Purge .sdr" and "Delete" to these buttons.
Moved the purgeSettings and removeFileFromHistoryIfWanted
logic into filemanagerutil functions.
Stay on the same page when manipulating history (previously, we were
always put back on first page).
Really keep deleted files in history (unless setting says otherwise).
Show deleted files in grey or dimmed in classic History and all
CoverBrowser display modes.
* CoverBrowser plugin: alt views for File Browser and History
* Added Prune cache and Compact cache menu actions
* Support for book descriptions, and settings stored in db
