* frontlight on kobo: a few fixes
Rewritten to not update NickelConf on every change, and never
if KOBO_SYNC_BRIGHTNESS_WITH_NICKEL = false.
Reintroduce global settings frontlight_intensity and
is_frontlight_on to keep level and state across koreader
sessions.
Fix a few of the remaining issues on kobo light.
Ensure settings are saved when rebooting/powering off from
File browser.
* Ensure untoggle works when starting with light off
* fixes#2898 (prevents accidentally triggering reboot or poweroff)
Add ConfirmBox before reboot/power off
* increases clarity by preventing second page
* add "sleep" menu entry
* Add exit menu hold callback
Just under the existing "Embedded Styles". Support for this
was already there in crengine, and interfacing is similar to
what is done with Embedded Styles.
For people who set autoremove_deleted_items_from_history to true,
file is removed from history when Deleted or 'Purge .sdr'. This also
update lastfile to the new top in history if needed.
So an image file can have a cover in coverbrowser's display.
It also allows for an alternative viewer (ImageViewer widget)
when holding on file / View full size cover.
This patch should resolve issue #2257 (Footer hides text)
Sometimes, depending on an epub style, some text is hidden by the progress bar (the mini one at the bottom).
- Factored out duplicate code from filemanager.lua and filemanagerhistory.lua
to new filemanagerbookinfo.lua (and other common code to filemanagerutil.lua).
- Uses sidecar files' new doc_props and doc_pages settings, or fallback to
old 'stats' settings, or to opening document.
- Shows filename, filetype and directory.
- Shows description (Hold to see whole truncated text), keywords, and
cover image (tap to extract image from document and display it if available).
- Book information now available from reader menu, to display info about
the currently opened book.
- Convert possibly HTML description to plain text via added
util.htmlToPlainTextIfHtml() (for simple HTML conversion).
They may already be available (with other statistics stuff) under
the 'stats' key, but not if Statistics plugin is disabled. As this
plugin may be migrated to SQLite, readerui and readerfooter will now
set two new properties: doc_props (containing all and only the metadata
returned by document:getDocumentProps()) and doc_pages (updated
by readerfooter on any display or font change).
PDF document: returns additional PDF properties: Keywords
and Subject (as Description).
* [fix] stop propagation of tap events
when triggering reader menu
And also get rid of unnecessary screen refreshes on Kindle Voyage.
The "progress" window for dict lookup is also eliminated as most of the time dict lookup is an instant process, and the "progress" window is preserved for wikipedia lookup as it may take longer time to show the result window.
* [up] add an option to disable dictionary fuzzy search
* [fix] tidy up require
* [fix] fix read settings
This affects #2335, at least for documents covered by `validDjvuFile()` (see 76cef07c07/frontend/document/djvudocument.lua (L15-L23)). However, that's only with regard to `touch invalid.djvu` and should not affect whatever happened in the OP.
as the tap gesture on the upper part (mostly) of the screen is
a conventional design to show menus in almost all ereaders as well as
some mobile phone apps. While users not farmilar with the Android world
have no experience with swipe down to show menus that's why we need a
quick start guide for this feature. And experienced Koreader users
probably will turn pages by mistake each time they want to popup the menus.
The solution here is adding back the tap gestures as they were and keep
the new swipe to show menu feature as a supplementary function when
link's tap area blocks menu's tap area.
