-MG-
Release 4.3.0.0 (2010-04-13)
- Search: The search dialog has some improvements:
- the search results will be cleared on document change
- the highlighting of results will now only need a single click
- navigation inside the result list is now possible using the arrow keys on the keyboard
-CK, FF-
- General search enhancements
- added the possibility to execute search requests synchronous. That means that it will be executed on the current thread.
- Added a new layer to the search request api which allows to use custom matching algorithms. See the javadoc for com.levigo.jadice.addon.search.AbstractCharSequenceSearchRequest
- Added a simple regular expression matcher: com.levigo.jadice.addon.search.PatternSearchRequest
-CK, FF-
- Search Notifications
The search enhancements mentioned above require a search request listener update. Therefore a new com.levigo.jadice.addon.search.event.SearchRequestListener, an adapter class com.levigo.jadice.addon.search.event.SearchRequestAdapter and approbate event objects have been introduced as a replacement for the previous notification mechanism.
The affected classes respectively methods and the way to handle these changes are described in detail in the Migration Guide.
-CK -
- Hover lens
Performance improvements for the hover lens.
-JH, FF-
- Double buffering
Added double buffering support. See DOCP-506
-FF-
- Page sorter
Added new page render behavior. Now it is possible to configure the sorter to honor the viewers render settings for its page display. If enabled, the sorter renders the page like the viewer does. If the new feature is disabled, the page sorter renders the pages as before independent of viewer render settings. See DOCP-636
-CK-
- Render controls
Added snapshot ability to all com.levigo.jadice.docs.RenderControls types.
-CK-
- Status bar
Added new status bar component as replacement for the not very flexible older version. The new status bar is a container which can carry and manage status bar snap-ins. Every component can be snap-in just by implementing the marker interface com.levigo.jadice.gui.status.SnapIn. This allows freely to create and add customized status bar snap-ins to the status bar. Furthermore there are several new and old status bar replacement snap-ins available:
- com.levigo.jadice.gui.status.PageSnapIn
- com.levigo.jadice.gui.status.ZoomSnapIn
- com.levigo.jadice.gui.status.DocumentStatusMessageSnapIn
- com.levigo.jadice.gui.status.PrinterStatusSnapIn
- com.levigo.jadice.gui.status.MemoryMonitorSnapIn (for development or problem analysis)
- com.levigo.jadice.gui.status.TaskServiceMonitorSnapIn (for development or problem analysis)
To get instances of this snap-ins use the factory methods of com.levigo.jadice.gui.status.SnapInFactory.
The document tree add-on gets the following snap-ins in addition and as a approbate replacement for the old DocumentTreeStatusbar functionality:
- com.levigo.jadice.doctree.status.PageOfPagesSnapIn
- com.levigo.jadice.doctree.status.PageOfWorkingSetSnapIn
- com.levigo.jadice.doctree.status.DocumentOfWorkingSetSnapIn
To get instances of these snap-ins the com.levigo.jadice.doctree.status.DocumentTreeSnapInFactory provides several useful factory methods.
As a consequence of this improvement the following classes have reached their final EOL point. Thus they do not underly any support and are no longer part of the distribution. Integrations that use these classes may get the source code on demand. In this case these classes may be used freely, however, they will not be supported.
- com.levigo.jadice.gui.StatusBar
- com.levigo.jadice.doctree.DocumentTreeStatusBar
The affected classes respectively methods and the way to handle these changes are described in detail in the Migration Guide.
See DOCP-641, DOCP-234 and DOCP-129.
