Touch zone decouples screen size from gesture event registration.
The win here is each individual widget does not need to update
gesture range on screen rotate/resize anymore.
Another advantage is we now have a centralized ordered array to handle
all registered touch event listeners, makes it much easier to resolve
gesture range conflicts between multiple widgets.
This patch also includes the following changes:
* migrate readerpaging to use readerui's touch zone
* migrate readerfooter to use readerui's touch zone
* move inverse read direction setting to touch menu's setting tab
* moved kobolight widget from readerview into readerui
* various dead code cleanups and comments
this should implement feature request of zoom mode for multi-columns
page in #501
This PR depends on koreader/koreader-base#435
How to use?
1. Tap the top left corner of a PDF/Djvu page to get into the flipping
mode
2. Double-tap on text block will zoom in to that column
3. Double-tap on any area will zoom out to an overview of the page
4. repeat step 2 to focus to another page block
How does it work?
1. We first find the mask of text blocks in the page. (Pic 1)
2. Then we intersect page boxes with user tap to form a page block. (Pic 2)
3. Finally we zoom the page to the page block and center current view to
that block. (Pic 3)
A new feature 'read from right to left' is added, which is more fit for
Traditional Chinese and Japanese books. Once the feature is enabled:
1. The gesture region of TapForward and area will be flipped
horizonally;
2. The action for swiping to west and to east will be exchanged.
We can input relative page number now in the reader goto dialog.
Goto "+4" will page forward 4 pages and goto "-4" will page
backward 4 pages.
This implements #1437.
The 'KOSync' plugin will synchronize furthest reading progress
across different koreader devices after users registering their
devices.
The synchronizing service is open-sourced as the project
[koreader/koreader-sync-server](https://github.com/koreader/koreader-sync-server).
it was set to a full refresh. However, we want to behave as if in
non-scrolling mode and issue a partial refresh. That might get
updated to a full refresh if the full-refresh counter has reached
the limit - which is configurable.
which currently just sets free the limitation of panning gestures
emitting rate. This should fix#1039 when unchecking the
"E-ink optimization" in the "Screen settings".
This is a major overhaul of the hardware abstraction layer.
A few notes:
General platform distinction happens in
frontend/device.lua
which will delegate everything else to
frontend/device/<platform_name>/device.lua
which should extend
frontend/device/generic/device.lua
Screen handling is implemented in
frontend/device/screen.lua
which includes the *functionality* to support device specifics.
Actually setting up the device specific functionality, however,
is done in the device specific setup code in the relevant
device.lua file.
The same goes for input handling.
