- 1. editor-like text selection, and I do mean it, its not pseudo-editor
(like the ones acroread and kviewshell have) it doesnt intersect the
selection area with words under it, no, it does a lot more, including
work on cursors and searching for the text area closest to the given
cursor
- 2. rotation support, change the orientation of the documents if
you need too :)
- 3. the kfaxview backend works beautifully, porting kviewshell backends
is damn easy ! djvu and dvi will be next!
- 4. Hardware Blending of selection rectangles! We now use XRender
instead of KImageEffect, makes a damn faster blend!
- 5. Overview mode - as seen in Kviewshell, but quite a bit extended,
the kviewshell is only one state, while we support it in both
continous and non-continous form
- BTW. I coded all those features myself, (apart from kfaxview backend library)
it is an impressive bit right? but oKular cant be run by only one person,
join in on the fun! i can introduce you into the code just mail niedakh@gmail.com

for a start has been done. I want to measure how long it will take to port so ill tell you when i start working on the port tommorow

- What works:
+ viewing documents
+ thumbnail generation
+ calculating page sizes based on the size of their KHTMLView
+ table of contents
- What is pending:
+ using internal index, will code it once I comeback, wasted too much time on textpage generation
- What probably will not work:
+ printing the entire document, no CHM viewer provides it now
it would need some kind of being able to print multiple HTML files
at once or sth similar (maybe anyone else has an idea?)
- About generating the textpage:
I went a long way, with enormous, and I do mean enormous help from SadEagle explaining to me how
to use the KHTML API to generate the text page in a usable way (actually getCaretPos is depreciated
and not document, and if you try to read the code, you'll notice it delegate the important stuff
further and further into the KHTML core. Understanding KHTML's core is a bit too much to require
at the moment.
Well finally I had something close to working, some words are matched properly - the rectangles are ok,
most are matched with a one/one and a half offshot to the right, finally some are not matched because
getCaretPost returns -1 as the left X border, I have no idea why, when I am asking for a
This is why I am ccing to kfm-devel, if anyone of you guys, has a while to spare and would be kind
enough, I would like to ask you to look at generator_t.cpp and the
void TGenerator::recursiveExploreNodes(DOM::Node node,KPDFTextPage *tp)
function, and tell me what seems wrong there? Also if you knwo a better way to get per character
coordinates for every character in the text inside a HTML Page, please let me know.
