## Detailed Description

PDFView is a utility class that can be used for interactive rendering of PDF documents.

In .NET environment PDFView is derived from System.Windows.Forms.Control and it can be used like a regular form (see PDFViewForm.cs in PDFView sample for C# for a concrete example).

PDFView implements some essential features such as double-buffering, multi-threaded rendering, scrolling, zooming, and page navigation that are essential in interactive rendering applications (e.g. in client PDF viewing and editing applications).

PDFView defines several coordinate spaces and it is important to understand their differences:

- Page Space refers to the space in which a PDF page is defined. It is determined by a page itself and the origin is at the lower-left corner of the page. Note that Page Space is independent of how a page is viewed in PDFView and each page has its own Page space.
- Canvas Space refers to the tightest axis-aligned bounding box of all the pages given the current page presentation mode in PDFView. For example, if the page presentation mode is e_single_continuous, all the pages are arranged vertically with one page in each row, and therefore the Canvas Space is rectangle with possibly large height value. For this reason, Canvas Space is also, like Page Space, independent of the zoom factor. Also note that since PDFView adds gaps between adjacent pages, the Canvas Space is larger than the space occupied by all the pages. The origin of the Canvas Space is located at the upper-left corner.
- Screen Space (or Client Space) is the space occupied by PDFView and its origin is at the upper-left corner. Note that the virtual size of this space can extend beyond the visible region.
- Scrollable Space is the virtual space within which PDFView can scroll. It is determined by the Canvas Space and the current zoom factor. Roughly speaking, the dimensions of the Scrollable Space is the dimensions of the Canvas Space timed by the zoom. Therefore, a large zoom factor will result in a larger Scrollable region given the same Canvas region. For this reason, Scrollable Space might also be referred to as Zoomed Canvas Space. Note that since PDFView adds gaps between pages in Canvas Space and these gaps are not scaled when rendered, the scrollable range is not exactly what the zoom factor times the Canvas range. For functions such as SetHScrollPos(), SetVScrollPos(), GetCanvasHeight(), and GetCanvasWidth(), it is the Scrollable Space that is involved.

Note
  PDFView is available on all platforms supported by PDFNet.

This option only has an effect if field highlighting is turned on using `SetHighlightFields(true)`. Note that non-signature fields have their own highlight color, independent of this one (see `setFieldHighlightColor`)

Parameters

  new_signature_highlight_color | the new signature highlight color, in rgba form.

void pdftron::PDF::PDFView::SetSnappingMode | ( | UInt32 | mode_flags | ) |

Set the point snapping mode for the SnapToNearestInDoc method. By default SnapToNearestInDoc will snap to line endpoints, midpoints, and intersections.

Parameters

  mode_flag | a bitwise combination of the members of `GeometryCollection::SnappingMode`

void pdftron::PDF::PDFView::SetTextSelectionMode | ( | TextSelectionMode | tm | ) |

Sets the selection mode used for text highlighting.

Parameters

  tm | the text selection mode.

void pdftron::PDF::PDFView::SetThinLineAdjustment | ( | bool | pixel_grid_fit,
|  | bool | stroke_adjust
| ) |  |

Set thin line adjustment parameters.

Parameters

  pixel_grid_fit | if true (horizontal/vertical) thin lines will be snapped to integer pixel positions. This helps make thin lines look sharper and clearer. This option is turned off by default and it only works if path hinting is enabled.
  stroke_adjust | if true auto stroke adjustment is enabled. Currently, this would make lines with sub-pixel width to be one-pixel wide. This option is turned on by default.

void pdftron::PDF::PDFView::SetupThumbnails | ( | bool | use_embedded,
|  | bool | generate_at_runtime,
|  | bool | use_disk_cache,
|  | int | thumb_max_side_length,
|  | size_t | max_abs_cache_size,
|  | double | max_perc_cache_size
| ) |  |

Specify the different thumbnail settings for the viewer. It is recommended that this not be called after SetDoc in order to avoid clearing cached thumbnails. Calling this method with different parameters will also clear the persistent disk cache if it is in use.

Parameters

  use_embedded | Enables or disables using thumbnails embedded in the PDF document as a preview of the rendered page. (Currently ignored - future versions may take advantage of embedded thumbnails)
  generate_at_runtime | Enables or disables generating thumbnails at runtime.
  use_disk_cache | Enables or disables caching thumbnails on disk. If possible thumbnails are cached in a persistent manner.
  thumb_max_side_length | The maximum size, in pixels, of a dimension of generated thumbnails.
  max_abs_cache_size | The absolute maximum size on disk, in bytes, for the temporary thumbnail cache.
  max_perc_cache_size | The maximum percentage of free disk space, in the range 0 - 1.0, that the cache can take up.

void pdftron::PDF::PDFView::SetUrlExtraction | ( | bool | enabled | ) |

Enables or disables URL extraction.

Parameters

  enabled | if true URL extraction is enabled, if false URL extraction is disabled.

by default URL extraction is disabled

Note
  If set to enabled when the document is already opened, it may not find links on pages that were already rendered. It is suggested to set this flag before opening the document.

void pdftron::PDF::PDFView::SetVerticalAlign | ( | int | align | ) |

Sets the vertical alignment used for rendering pages within the view.

Parameters

  align | an integer specifying the vertical alignment. Depending of whether align is positive, negative, or zero - pages will be bottom, top or center aligned: align<0 -> pages are top aligned. align==0 -> pages are centered. align>0 -> pages are bottom aligned.

static void pdftron::PDF::PDFView::SetViewerCache | ( | SDF::SDFDoc & | document,
|  | size_t | max_cache_size,
|  | bool | on_disk
| ) |  |
| static

Sets the cache parameters of the page cache on disk (which caches content streams and mipmapped images) for this specific document. These parameters will override the default cache parameters. Note that if this function is called after the document has been rasterized, it has no effect.

Parameters

  document | - The document whose settings will be modified.
  max_cache_size | - The maximum size, in bytes, of the entire document's page cache. Set to zero to disable the viewer cache.
  on_disk | - If set to 'true', cache will be stored on the local filesystem. If set to 'false', cache will be stored in heap memory.

Desktop: max_cache_size = 512 MB, on_disk = true | Mobile: max_cache_size = 100 MB, on_disk = false

void pdftron::PDF::PDFView::SetVScrollPos | ( | double | pos | ) |

Sets the vertical scroll position in scrollable space.

Parameters

  the | new vertical scroll position. The position should be in the range between 0 and GetCanvasheight().

Should you want to center to a location (px, py) expressed in a page space, you can use the following code:

    //focus
    view.SetCurrentPage(page_num);
    view.ConvPagePtToScreenPt(px, py, page_num);
    view.SetZoom((int)px, (int)py, view.GetZoom());

    //center
    int width = view.GetBufferWidth();
    int height = view.GetBufferHeight();
    int dx = (int)(px - (double)width/2 + 0.5);
    int dy = (int)(py - (double)height/2 + 0.5);
    view.OnScroll(dx, dy);

bool pdftron::PDF::PDFView::SetZoom | ( | double | zoom | ) |

Sets the zoom factor to a new value. The function zooms to a point at the center of the rendering buffer.

Parameters

  zoom | - new scaling component used to display the page content.

Returns
  true if successful, false otherwise.

bool pdftron::PDF::PDFView::SetZoom | ( | int | x,
|  | int | y,
|  | double | zoom
| ) |  |

Sets the zoom factor to a new value using the given pixel coordinate (x,y) as a zoom center, which will stay fixed on the screen.

The zoom point (x,y) is represented in the screen space, which starts in the upper-left corner of the client window.

Should you want to move (x, y) to the center of the client window, you can use the OnScroll() subsequently:

    int x, y;
    double zoom;
    ...
    view.SetZoom(x, y, zoom);
    int width = view.GetBufferWidth();
    int height = view.GetBufferHeight();
    int dx = (int)(x - (double)width/2 + 0.5);
    int dy = (int)(y - (double)height/2 + 0.5);
    view.OnScroll(dx, dy);

Parameters

  x | - the horizontal coordinate to zoom in.
  y | - the vertical coordinate to zoom in.
  zoom | - new scaling component used to display the page content.

Returns
  true if successful, false otherwise.

void pdftron::PDF::PDFView::ShowAnnotation | ( | Annot | annot | ) |

Enable rendering of a particular annotation. Only has an effect if HideAnnotation() has previously been called on the same annot.

Parameters

  annot | The annotation object to resume rendering.

bool pdftron::PDF::PDFView::ShowRect | ( | int | page_num,
|  | const Rect & | rect
| ) |  |

Changes the viewing area to fit a rectangle rect on page page_num. Rectangle must be specified in page coordinates. This will adjust current page and zoom appropriately.

Returns
  true if successful, false otherwise.

bool pdftron::PDF::PDFView::SmartZoom | ( | int | x,
|  | int | y
| ) |  |

Sets the zoom factor to a new value using the given pixel coordinate (x,y) to find an intersecting paragraph. The width of the paragraph helps to determine the zoom value, center of the paragraph is used as a zoom center. Paragraph has to contain more than one line and be wider than 1/5th of a page width. When called on a paragraph wider than current zoom level the new zoom level is set to fit the entire page(zoom out).

The zoom point (x,y) is represented in the screen space, which starts in the upper-left corner of the client window.

Parameters

  x | - the horizontal coordinate to look for a text block.
  y | - the vertical coordinate to look for a text block.

Returns
  true if successful, false if no paragraph intersects the given point.

Point pdftron::PDF::PDFView::SnapToNearestInDoc | ( | const Point & | screen_pt | ) |

Snaps an xy coordinate pair (in screen space) to the nearest piece of document geometry.

void pdftron::PDF::PDFView::TakeSnapshot | ( | const UString & | meta_info | ) |

Take a snapshot of the current document state.

Parameters

  meta_info | - The meta-data to be attached to this particular undo state.

UString pdftron::PDF::PDFView::Undo | ( |  | ) |

Return to the previous state in the undo/redo chain.

Returns
  Meta-data associated with the current state in the undo/redo chain after undoing one state.

void pdftron::PDF::PDFView::Update | ( | bool | all = `false` | ) |

Redraws the contents of the buffer.

void pdftron::PDF::PDFView::Update | ( | const Rect & | update | ) |

Redraws the given area in the buffer.

Parameters

  update | The rectangle to update expressed in screen coordinates.

void pdftron::PDF::PDFView::Update | ( | const Annot & | annot,
|  | int | page_num
| ) |  |

Redraws the area covered with a given annotation.

Parameters

  annot | The annotation to update.
  page_num | The page number on which the annotation is located.

void pdftron::PDF::PDFView::Update | ( | const Field & | field | ) |

Redraws all instances (Widgets) of the field.

Parameters

  field | the field for which to update all occurances

void pdftron::PDF::PDFView::UpdateBuffer | ( |  | ) |

Update the internal memory buffer that can be returned by GetBuffer(). Since PDFView may not necessarily update the buffer until it finishes rendering the current viewing area, it is required to call UpdateBuffer() to force PDFView to write the current rasterized contents to the buffer. This is important for, say, calling GetBuffer() in a different thread to implement progressive rendering.

Note
  UpdateBuffer() ensures thread safety internally. In addition, PDFView calls UpdateBuffer() internally before the user-defined finishing-rendering callback function (specified by SetRenderFinishProc) is called, if applicable. this method is typically used only in PDFNet for C++.

void pdftron::PDF::PDFView::UpdateOCGContext | ( |  | ) |

Prompts the PDFViewCtrl to update its list of optional content groups. Call this method if you modify the PDFDoc in a way that adds or removes a layer. For example, after using Stamper to create a stamp.

void pdftron::PDF::PDFView::UpdatePageLayout | ( |  | ) |

Updates the page layout within the view. This function must be called after document page sequence is modified (such as when a page is being added to or removed from a document) or after changes to page dimensions (e.g. after a page is rotated or resized).

bool pdftron::PDF::PDFView::WereAnnotsForMousePrepared | ( | int | page_num | ) | const

Returns
  true if annotations of the given page have been prepared, false otherwise

Parameters

  page_num | - page number

bool pdftron::PDF::PDFView::WereWordsPrepared | ( | int | page_num | ) | const

Returns
  true if words of the given page has been prepared, false otherwise

Parameters
