## Background
`pathchooser.lua` does not support non-touch device to choose file or folder due to those device cannot generate long press event.
## Choose File
Non-touch device can select file in list, it is good enough to choose file without long press to confirm.
## Choose Folder
`pathchooser.lua` changes the label of current directory `.` to `Long-press to choose a folder`. It is user friendly, while for non-device, it is a very good place to let user tell the system I want the current folder to be chosen without extra long press.
* LuaSettings/DocSettings: Updated readSetting API to allow proper initialization to default.
Use it to initialize tables, e.g., fixing corner-cases in readerFooter that could prevent settings from being saved.
(Fixes an issue reported on Gitter).
* LuaSettings/DocSettings: Add simpler API than the the flip* ones to toggle boolean settings.
* Update LuaSettings/DocSettigns usage throughout the codebase to use the dedicated boolean methods wher appropriate, and clean up some of the more mind-bending uses.
* FileChooser: Implement an extended default exclusion list (fix#2360)
* ScreenSaver: Refactor to avoid the pile of kludges this was threatening to become. Code should be easier to follow and use, and fallbacks now behave as expected (fix#4418).
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.
Explicit new options: select_directory, select_file, show_files.
With select_directory, show an entry to select current directory
(so, removed undocumented hack "hold on .. to select current
directory").
InputText, ScrollTextWidget, TextBoxWidget:
- proper line scrolling when moving cursor or inserting/deleting text
to behave like most text editors do
- fix cursor navigation, optimize refreshes when moving only the cursor,
don't recreate the textwidget when moving cursor up/down
- optimize refresh areas, stick to "ui" to avoid a "partial" black
flash every 6 appended or deleted chars
InputText:
- fix issue when toggling Show password multiple times
- new option: InputText.cursor_at_end (default: true)
- if no InputText.height provided, measure the text widget height
that we would start with, and use a ScrollTextWidget with that
fixed height, so widget does not overflow container if we extend
the text and increase the number of lines
- as we are using "ui" refreshes while text editing, allows refreshing
the InputText with a diagonal swipe on it (actually, refresh the
whole screen, which allows refreshing the keyboard too if needed)
ScrollTextWidget:
- properly align scrollbar with its TextBoxWidget
TextBoxWidget:
- some cleanup (added new properties to avoid many method calls), added
proxy methods for upper widgets to get them
- reordered/renamed/refactored the *CharPos* methods for easier reading
(sorry for the diff that won't help reviewing, but that was needed)
InputDialog:
- new options:
allow_newline = false, -- allow entering new lines
cursor_at_end = true, -- starts with cursor at end of text, ready to append
fullscreen = false, -- adjust to full screen minus keyboard
condensed = false, -- true will prevent adding air and balance between elements
add_scroll_buttons = false, -- add scroll Up/Down buttons to first row of buttons
add_nav_bar = false, -- append a row of page navigation buttons
- find the most adequate text height, when none provided or fullscreen, to
not overflow screen (and not be stuck with Cancel/Save buttons hidden)
- had to disable the use of a MovableContainer (many issues like becoming
transparent when a PathChooser comes in front, Hold to paste from
clipboard, moving the InputDialog under the keyboard and getting stuck...)
GestureRange: fix possible crash (when event processed after widget
destruction ?)
LoginDialog: fix some ui stack increase and possible crash when switching
focus many times.
