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.
The current name causes people to think of scrolling, which is slightly awkward on E Ink. For example, see <https://github.com/koreader/koreader/issues/5166#issuecomment-517771475>.
> But this on LCD, not E-ink where the lag is unbearable, especially if you want to correct any scrolling over/undershoot.
Scroll mode is a misnomer. It should be renamed continuous. I use "scroll mode" as the default, but I seldom or never scroll. Conversely, you can still scroll in paged mode if a page is longer than the screen. As far as I'm concerned if you're scrolling (panning) you may be doing it wrong, but to anyone reading: you do you. ;-)
Adds "Render mode" toggle with 4 modes, to enable some or all
of crengine's new enhanced block rendering features.
Use "legacy" rendering for previously opened books to not mess
with bookmarks, and "web" (all of the new features) for new books.
Also make available the added "HTML5" stylesheet to the Style menu.
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 ;).
Adds a toggle switch in the Orientation bottom config menu to
allow showing 1 page or 2 pages when in landscape mode.
Previously, this was hardcoded to be in 2-pages modes only
in some circumstances (device resolution + user dpi).
* 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)
Includes:
- EPUB: workaround ZIP files with corrupted central directories
- Supports book text encoded in WTF-8
- Harfbuzz kerning (full): fix possible wrong flags
- (Upstream) Adds new kerning method: Harfbuzz light, without ligatures
Adds Harfbuzz light kerning methods as the 3rd toggle.
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.
