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.
Small tweaks all around to handle UI mirroring:
- swap existing symbols like arrows, or use alternative ones
- rotate some images, like chevrons and dogear icons
- flip some left and right swipe handling
- flip some geometry arithmetic like tap on left or right
side of page or dict window
- use new ProgressWidget:getPercentageFromPosition() instead
of geometry arithmetic
- BD.wrap() some concatenated string bits, like in reader
and menu footers
- flip inverse_reading_order when UI is mirrored
More specific tweaks:
- ReaderGesture: reset some specific gestures when UI direction
has changed (tap on top/bottom left/right corners, for
bookmarks and FileManager "Plus menu").
- ReaderRolling: show markers on the correct side of page,
in single or dual page mode.
- KoptOptions: swap left and right icons in Alignment toggle
- CheckMark: proper rendering in all 4 mirroring/rtl combinations.
- VirtualKeyboard: forbid any mirroring
- Move util.getMenuText into Menu.lua
Allow TextBoxWidget new text direction/lang parameters to be
set on upper widgets, and propagate them all the way to it
(ScrollTextWidget, InputText, InputDialog, TextViewer).
Use specific non-default ones in some specific cases:
- Force LTR text direction when showing HTML and CSS, and
configuration files (in some plugins).
- Use Wikipedia server language and text direction when
showing an article.
- Use auto with Dictionary results, as we don't know the
dictionary language, and they may contain mixed content.
- Force LTR when showing some paths (still needs more of them)
TextEditor plugin: add 2 new options "Auto paragraph direction"
and "Force paragraph direction LTR".
Footnotes popup: grab HTML direction, and forward it
to MuPDF for proper display.
Thanks to <https://github.com/koreader/koreader/pull/5237> we can now extract the knowledge currently embedded in Transifex and put it directly in our source. This positively affects <https://github.com/koreader/koreader/issues/3754>.
Translation instructions and knowledge that comes out of localization-related questions should be preserved in the source, because Transifex is too ephemeral. For example, the links from <https://github.com/koreader/koreader/pull/2290> are no longer accessible. Even when they are, it's quite useful to have this information around while dealing with the code as well, and I also hope it'll be informative to contributors who seldom visit Transifex.
This commit also makes a few minor changes to obviate the need for comments where possible.
* 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)
* 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
* [VirtualKeyboard] Add support for keynaviguation
Also rename the variable "layout" to "keyboard_layout" because conflict
with the layout from the focusmanager
* Make the goto dialog compatible with key naviguation
My solution is to change the order of the widget. The last one will the
virtualkeybard so it catch all the keybinding, and below it, make the
dialog "is_always_active = true" so it can receive touch event.
* Correctly show the virtual keyboard on dpad devices
* change the order to call the virtualKeyboard so it end up on top
* Handle the multi input dialog
* Support reopening the virtualKeyboard by the Press key
* add check focusmanager
* Fix https://github.com/koreader/koreader/issues/3797
* MultiInputDialog : Now work on non touch-device
* Set the virtualkeyboard to be a modal widget
* Fix the layout in multiinputwidget
* Fix for the various combination of
hasKeys,hasDpad,isTouchDevice
* [Focusmanager] Better handling of malformed layout
Also uses PathChooser (instead of InputDialog) in 'Set Wikipedia
Save as EPUB directory'. When setting not yet set, propose to
create and use ~/Wikipedia/ .
Some Hold and move (hold on title and move away from it) would not work.
Pan (=swipe with hold at end) while selecting text would move the
window (it now does nothing: proper text selection still needs Hold
on word at start).
Also increase hold duration from 2s to 3s (for switching lookup
between dict/wikipedia) to be consistent with the 3s duration in
readerhighlight.
(each one at top right of each page)
Such images can be loaded dynamically when the display of a page requires it.
Allow alternating between the image and its title with Tap on it.
Allow for viewing this image zoomed in ImageViewer with Hold on it.
DictQuickLookup: add generic support for result.images, that
could optionally be provided in Wikipedia lookup results.
* Adds a generic HTML widget modeled after the text widget, and HTML dictionary support. HTML dictionaries can have their own CSS (for X.ifo it must be X.css). The base CSS just resets the margin and sets the font.
Note that the widget doesn't handle links, that wasn't needed for the dictionary.
Closes <https://github.com/koreader/koreader/issues/1776>.
* Show tag stripped HTML if the dictionary entry isn't valid HTML
* Simulate the normal <br/> behavior
* Bump base
"partial" refresh causes a full (without black flash) refresh on
Kindle (which uses REAGL mode for partial refresh). This causes a
full redraw of widgets, which is a bit distracting with some of them:
- dictquicklookup: when showing next definition
- infomessage: when displaying a new one (Wikipedia Save as epub)
Also fix bottom menu, that even when closed, would still register
bottom area as dirty: this would cause top menu navigation to
cause a full partial refresh, only noticable on Kindle.
Also for the current text-only wikipedia full page: replace
the ==s in section titles with some unicode symbols for a better
visual feeling of hierarchy. These same symbols are also used
in the .epub.
Both can be disabled by adding ["wikipedia_prettify"] = false
to settings.reader.lua
readerhighlight: close ButtonTable (like other buttons do) when looking
up wikipedia, otherwise if we save as epub, and swtich to new document,
this ButtonTable will never be closed and stays in UI.
Fix innacurate language query and rotation when back from nested lookups.
More informative lookup message (langage used, search or full page)
Allow for screen refresh with diagonal swipe (like in readerpaging).
Stardict:
- remove duplicate results
- better cleaning of selection
- append results from a 2nd query of a 2nd set of dictionaries
in data/dict_ext/
Wikipedia:
- use the search API for better results
- allow viewing the full page content of a result in a bigger window
- allow queries for multiple languages
- available languages can be set in settings.reader.lua :
["wikipedia_languages"] = {"en", "fr", "it"}
- "Wikipedia lookup" added to Tools menu
For both:
- allow selection of multiple words for a new lookup (so one can
actually browse wikipedia)
- allow continuous reading with Tap
- display "current result / total number of results"
Details in #2393
More closely matches native behavior on REAGL devices.
Closing those widgets should still trigger a partial refresh though,
because we usually get back to the reader, and text, so we want REAGL
;).
This is a larger clean-up of the refresh situation.
The general shift is that refreshes are now mainly triggered by
the (top-level) widgets when they get shown or closed via UIManager.
All refreshes for the widgets when they are in use were handled by
themselves before. This adds the case of showing/closing.
It is the desired result of not having UIManager:show()/:close()
do (full screen) refreshes on its own.
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.
colors were a mixture of 4bpp integers (0=white, 15=black) and
fractional blackness levels (0=white, 1.0=black) before. This is
now unified to use the color specification of the Blitbuffer API.
Since wikipedia server is language specific we should first detect
language of the text by querying Google Translate. Make sure you have
access to both Google Translate and Wikipedia service to use this
function.
use `self.highlight:handleEvent(Event:new("Tap"))` instead of
`self.ui:handleEvent(Event:new("Tap"))` when clearing highlighted
text since Tap event in latter situation will be captured by
the dogear widget.
This should finish the work to make all globals to local variables.
That allows LuaJIT to properly compile things by interning the
references to the relevant parts (rather than looking up globals
all the time which stops a trace).
