* Allow switching to SW dithering on a HW-capable device without that being lost on boot (and, worse, left in an undithered state).
* Make sure the automagic toggles between HW/SW in the Dev menu are properly saved.
* Make sure the Color menu is accessible on GrayScale device, in the event
one would have inherited a color-enabled settings from another
device...
* Warn on startup if color rendering is enabled on a grayscale device.
A non-exhaustive lists of things such a setup would break:
* same-to-same blitbuffers for pretty much every rendering engine
* same-to-same blitting codepaths and fast-paths
* software dithering in CRe
Set default language (for Harfbuzz to pick up localized glyphs
in a font), default text direction, and UI element mirroring
depending on the UI language.
This patch only handles part of file URI scheme defined in [rfc 8089](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8089), i.e., it currently only handles `file://ABSOLUTE_PATH`.
Without having to resort to weird custom defaults.
* Split the current margins setting in three:
* Horizontal margins (because you generally want those two to be balanced).
* Top margin & Bottom margin (because you may want to tweak those separately to deal with quirky status bar/final line shenanigans).
* Also, add a "Reclaim bar height from bottom margin" toggle to the status bar menu, to optionally make sure the status bar won't eat into the bottom margin.
* Includes a free fix to diacritics popup refresh handling in the keyboard ;).
Companion PR to https://github.com/koreader/koreader-base/pull/884
* Basically flags devices known to be stable when using PxP inversion.
* Plus, random fix for #4870 ;).
* A few FrontLight tweaks & cleanups on Kobo:
* Moved the Kobo-specific startup status insanity to Kobo-specific init
* Made turnOff/turnOn frontlight do a smooth ramp down/up
* On Kobo, use turnOff/turnOn for suspend/resume, to get that smooth toggle
* On Kobo, for NaturalLight w/ a mixer, only set warmth for setWarmth, and only set Brightness for setBrightness, otherwise, it tried to set both with not in-sync values, which made the FL widget jittery.
* Add a toggle to disable the C blitter in the Dev menu (depends on https://github.com/koreader/koreader-base/pull/882) (never shown if the JIT is disabled, grayed out if the C blitter is not installed)
* Fix a few sizeUtf8Text call sites that were doing a nil check in order to account for the new return type.
* Tweak statusbar handling to avoid spurious sizeUtf8Text warnings when it's hidden, and unify its behavior between being hidden via toggle, and hidden on book open (at least when all-at-once is not enabled).
* c.f., https://github.com/koreader/koreader-base/pull/882 (Android, PB, RGB32 & Legacy Kindle regression fixes).
* The Great 8bpp Experiment
Swap to 8bpp on Kobo, because we're 'effing grayscale, for pete's sake!
* Always swap to 8bpp, no matter the launch method.
Because it turned out that, even when restarting Nickel, we had to
restore the expected bitdepth ourselves, because pickel/Nickel didn't do
the job completely.
(I'm going to guess the grayscale flag wasn't getting flipped properly).
* Dither every non-transparent icon to the eInk palette
* Make sure hasBGRFrameBuffer is only enabled when the Kobo fb actually is
@ 32bpp...
* Re-process badly grayscaled icons
* And re-grayscale that one w/ gamma correction so the squares show up
better.
* Allow the fbdepth switch to be disabled (in Developer settings).
Also, allow setting debug mode that way.
Also, forcibly disable verbose logging when disabling debug.
* Update setting name to piggyback on the existing check in reader.lua
* Update icons postprocessing info
* shellcheck 0.4.5 fix `LC_ALL: en_US.UTF8` (can be removed for shellcheck 0.4.6)
* hush updated luacheck on `reader.lua`; we're not assigning any variables but `= nil` is redundant
* 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
* Use PluginShare to exchange data between plugins
* Remove legacy code in reader.lua and kobo/device.lua, and move KOBO_LIGHT_ON_START to kobo/powerd.lua
* A better sync config logic
* Consider kobo without hardware frontlight toggle
* update frontlight widget once toggle is tapped.
* Swipe for menu and quickstart guide
Because swiping for the menu is a big change from what we're used to, this commit includes a new quickstart guide.
Fixes#2608.
* add some dev docs
* add FileConverter spec
* add QuickStart spec
* add Version module
* add Version spec
and have more confidence with the unit testing framework.
Now `make testfront` won't retry on failure and testing files are
ordered in each run so that it's possible to reproduce testing failure.
And this patch also fix flush settings not working before suspend issue:
at some point the `FlushSettings` event is sent to `UIManager` instead
of `ReaderUI`, but `UIManager` only delegated events to active widgets
and `ReaderUI` is actually not an active widgets thus will miss the event.
This patch also add a verbose debug mode with "-v" as a switch to turn
on this mode. With verbose mode on, event handling will be logged.
1. It turns out that `device_id` is not defined in unit test environment
which makes the `assert(self.kosync_device_id)` fail and somehow makes `luajit` segmentation fault.
2. In the device spec, stubbing `io.open` will make subsquent `require`
all return boolean value and segmentation fault `luajit`.
This patch is a minimum viable change that makes CI work on both my
local box and Travis.
