Viewer: images, tables, and one other thing

democrite · 12-16-2019, 06:55 PM

Hello,

Thank you for the new work on night mode. Looking forward to the next release.

A question about images and tables. I tend to read works that might have images such as large charts, diagrams, etc. One nice thing about some readers is that one can tap or click an image and it then shows up in a popup which one can then pan and zoom. Very helpful in such cases. For large tables, they can get quite large, I like how iOS Books will zoom to fit tables if needed, and one can also tap to see the whole thing, and pan and zoom.

And one minor note, the recognition of a hyperlink, whether it is note or merely a link to another section, continues to be finicky. A preference would be nice to toggle detection of notes as such. One other thing about it, if the note popup contains hyperlinks, those are not clickable. A separate thing that would be nice to have work.

Right click on an the image and choose "View image" and a similar tool for tables is on my TODO list.

great. maybe left click on image would be more easily discoverable and quicker though not sure if it'd be prone to accidental selects. but left click seems good.
