| tor8 | morning kens. | 08:51.09 |
| sebras | tor8: have you had a look at paul/forms? | 10:14.07 |
| | currently the interface between the viewer and the forms-stuff is to pop up a modal dialogbox which modifies a char array. | 10:14.59 |
| | it would be nice if this interface was more akin to the search interface, i.e. a state flag and char array in pdfapp_t and then a textfieldmodification function based on... x,y coordinates I think. | 10:16.20 |
| | if done this way then it would be possible to add support for formfilling easier in the x11 viewer which means that I can test stuff (and pester paul when it doesn't work of course! ;) ). | 10:17.07 |
| tor8 | sebras: I'm sure that's just a temporary solution. | 10:28.47 |
| | I have considered caving and just using gtk+ for the linux viewer, to get proper text editing | 10:29.11 |
| sebras | why not go the whole hog and use qt? ;) | 10:39.35 |
| | but yeah, I see where you are coming from, but I can't for the life of me appreciate evince's interface. | 10:39.55 |
| tor8 | qt has too many pluses | 10:45.09 |
| | sebras: I doubt the UI would change much, just get a better search box and maybe an outline view | 10:45.48 |
| | being able to search for non-ascii text would be a bonus | 10:46.04 |
| sebras | tor8: right, I actually stumbled upon the lack of non-ascii text input the other day. å was impossible to input. | 10:57.20 |
| | Forward 1 day (to 2012/05/13)>>> | |
