This patch implements support for line annotations. Other viewers only
show the popup annotation when hovering over the line, which may have
any orientation. To make this possible, we render an invisible line (SVG
element) over the line on the canvas that acts as the trigger for the
popup annotation. This invisible line has the same starting coordinates,
ending coordinates and width of the line on the canvas.
Note that as discussed on IRC, this makes the viewer slightly slower to load *only* in `gulp server` mode, however the difference seem slight enough that I think it will be fine.
This patch gets rid of the only case in the code-base where we're throwing a plain `string`, rather than an `Error`, which besides better/more consistent error handling also allows us to enable the [`no-throw-literal`](http://eslint.org/docs/rules/no-throw-literal) ESLint rule.
The point of this patch is to fix a couple of inconsistencies in `viewer.html`, compared to the locale files, such that the viewer would work correctly even without the `l10n/` files present.
*Note:* Since this isn't changing any of the locale files, we should *not* need to update any of the string names.
Looking through the history of the findbar code, it seems that the `findPrevious`/`findNext` buttons have never had a `title` set (note PR 2168, which was the initial findbar implementation).
Furthermore, the `placeholder` of the `findInput` didn't agree 100% with locale file either, so this is also adjusted.
I noticed that we have a `.toolbarButton.group` CSS class, which is currently applied to some buttons in the viewer. Since it attempts to adjust the `margin-right` property, I was initially a bit puzzled as to why there wasn't different rules for LTR/RTL locales.
However, checking the viewer with the DevTools inspector, in both LTR and RTL locales, I quickly found that the rule in question is *always* being overridden by other CSS rules.
It thus seem to me that while this rule was probably useful at some point, it has been dead for years and could now be removed.
The find functionality is currently not available for small devices
because the find dialog is not responsive. This patch fixes that.
To achieve this goal, the HTML is changed to always show the find
button. To prevent issues because of the addition of an extra button for
small views, the previous/next page buttons are hidden if the view
becomes small. These buttons are not useful anyway because on small
devices navigation is usually done via scrolling. The find functionality
is much more useful to have in this case. Moreover, we wrap the existing
elements into separate `div`s so that the browser can position the
elements itself when the view becomes smaller and logically connected
elements stay together when this happens.
In the CSS, extra rules for the find bar have been added to ensure that
the dialog's doorhanger is always below the find button. All findbar
`div`s are forced to be 32 pixels high to prevent the find message text
being aligned under the checkboxes. Finally, the find message is only
visible when there is actually text to display. This prevents wrapping
issues because, by default, the label has padding and margin even if
there is no text.
Instead of just upstreaming the changes from [bug 1345253](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1345253) as-is, it seemed better to simply get rid of the loops altogether and use the same approach as in `PDFViewer`/`PDFThumbnailViewer`.
This patch is another step towards enabling Babel. Since we're moving
towards ES6 modules, we will not be using UMD headers anymore, so we can
remove the validation.
The download button in pdf.js doesn't work in iOS Chrome.
- It appears to be an issue with URLs from URL.createObjectURL.
The URL is correct, but iOS Chrome won't even load the URL
when `a.click()` is called in `download_manager.js`. Even
if you manually visit the URL, you get a blank page.
- Fix this by detecting iOS Chrome and disabling createObjectURL.
The `download_manager.js` `download` method wasn't checking
`PDFJS.disableCreateObjectURL`, so check it there, too.
- Move the navigator.msSaveBlob check earlier, so that
this doesn't change IE10 / IE11 behavior.
- Remove the !URL check since pdf.js has a URL polyfill
now.
If users want to download, they can quickly click on the Download button
in the newly opened viewer.
The blobUrl logic for Firefox relies on `disableCreateObjectURL` is
never false in Firefox. If the assumption is invalid, then PDF
attachments at the attachment view will not correctly be displayed,
because a data-URL will be generated and `?<filename>` is treated as
part of the data:-URL.
Determine the page rotation at the same place as where the page size is
determined. This allows us to implement custom print page rotation logic
in one place, in the future.
The download method (and the PDF document properties) detect the
file name using `getPDFFileNameFromURL`. The title ought to also
display the PDF filename if available.
See http://eslint.org/docs/rules/brace-style.
Having the opening/closing braces on the same line can often make the code slightly more difficult to read, in particular for `if`/`else if` statements, compared to using new lines.
This patch also, for consistency with `mozilla-central`, enables the [`no-iterator`](http://eslint.org/docs/rules/no-iterator) rule. Note that this rule didn't require a single code change.
The regular expression incorrectly marked a group as capturing.
For `http://example.com/#file.pdf`, the expected result is "file.pdf",
but instead "document.pdf" was returned.
Other PDF viewers, e.g. Adobe Reader, seem to append `FileAttachment`s to their attachments views.
One obvious difference in PDF.js is that we cannot append all the annotations on document load, since that would require parsing *every* page. Despite that, it still seems like a good idea to add `FileAttachment`s, since it's thus possible to access all the various types of attachments from a single place.
*Note:* With the previous patch we display a notification when a `FileAttachment` is added to the sidebar, which thus makes appending the contents of these annotations to the sidebar slightly more visible/useful.
A longstanding issue with the viewer is that you cannot tell if a PDF document includes an outline and/or attachments without actually opening the sidebar.
This patch contains a suggested solution for that, by displaying an hide-on-interaction notification on the `sidebarToggle` button (and the relevant sidebar view buttons). Note that this was inspired by e.g. the update notification that is displayed on the menu button in Firefox.
For an initial implementation, I've tried to do this in such a way that the notification isn't too distracting. Without being an UX expert, I don't think that we'd want something too in-your-face, in order to keep the viewer toolbars reasonable clean. (We probably do *not* want e.g. an entire notification bar in these situations, since that would take up unnecessary screen space and require actions from the user to close.)
However it's certainly possible that the current notification might simply be *too* inconspicuous to be truly helpful to users, but we could probably iterate on that if the feature itself is deemed useful.
Please see http://eslint.org/docs/rules/no-unused-vars; note that this patch purposely uses the same rule options as in `mozilla-central`, such that it fixes part of issue 7957.
It wasn't, in my opinion, entirely straightforward to enable this rule compared to the already existing rules. In many cases a `var descriptiveName = ...` format was used (more or less) to document the code, and I choose to place the old variable name in a trailing comment to not lose that information.
I welcome feedback on these changes, since it wasn't always entirely easy to know what changes made the most sense in every situation.
*This fixes a regression from commit c9a0955c9c, i.e. PR 7738.*
Currently if you quickly rotate a document at least *twice*,[1] such that rendering of a page hasn't finished for the first rotation before the last rotation is triggered, the `cssTransform` method can fail to update the page correctly leading to it looking temporarily distorted.
The reason why things break is that previously we stored the `viewport` on the canvas DOM element, meaning that when it was accessed in `cssTransform` is was guaranteed to point to the `viewport` of the `zoomLayer` canvas.
Generally you want to avoid storing data on DOM elements this way, and during the `PDFPageView` refactoring needed to support SVG rendering, the previous `viewport` was instead stored directly on `PDFPageView`.
However, the problem is first of all that the `paintedViewport` only stores the *last* `viewport` computed, and second of all that there're no guarantees that it actually applies to the current `zoomLayer` canvas.
If a document is rotated slowly enough that rendering finishes *before* the next rotation then this problem doesn't exist, but for sufficiently quick rotations rendering will be cancelled at least once and the `paintedViewport` could thus be bogus.
The solution for the above problems is to ensure that we track the correct `viewport` for each DOM element (canvas or svg),[2] which seemed easist to do with a `WeakMap`.[3]

[1] I'm able to reproduce this using the `tracemonkey` file, but please note that for pages with few operations, i.e. that render very quickly, the effect may be hard to spot.
[2] One other possible solution that I briefly considered, was to wait until rendering finished before storing the current `viewport`. However, that would have caused issues with rotating a page before the *first* rendering operation had finished.
[3] This regression took me way longer to both figure out, and fix, than I'd like to admit :-)
Please see http://eslint.org/docs/rules/spaced-comment.
Note that the exceptions added for `line` comments are intended to still allow use of the old preprocessor without linting errors.
Also, I took the opportunity to improve the grammar slightly (w.r.t. capitalization and punctuation) for comments touched in the patch.
Using `else` after `return` is not necessary, and can often lead to unnecessarily cluttered code. By using the `no-else-return` rule in ESLint we can avoid this pattern, see http://eslint.org/docs/rules/no-else-return.
As mentioned on IRC yesterday, we currently throw even when rendering is `cancelled`, which is annoying when the devtools are active. Furthermore, since `cancelled` isn't really an error, rejecting the `PDFPageView_draw` promise seems somewhat strange in that case.
Modern browsers support styling radio buttons and checkboxes with CSS.
This makes the implementation much easier, and the fallback for older
browsers is still decent.
