Release v1.1.0
Improve overall user experience
- Make `selection-style` configurable when selecting text, via
`pdf-view-selection-style` @hrdl-github #73
- This feature enabled us to change the default `selection-style` used
in `pdf-tools` from `GLYPH` to `WORD`.
- The change makes highlighting / selecting text **much** snappier. If
you want to go back to the old behaviour of selecting by glyph
instead of word, or if you want to select a whole line instead,
customize `pdf-view-selection-style`
- Track rotation of pages and add a command to make rotation of pages
easy @vizs #165
- The new command is bound to `R` in `pdf-view-mode-map`.
- Add support for maintaining hue in `pdf-view-midnight-minor-mode`
using the OKLab color space @smithzvk #69 #197
- This inversion method is now enabled by default and can be
controlled by the `pdf-view-midnight-invert` variable. Check out the
images in the PR for how beautiful the colors look in midnight mode
now.
- Also thanks to @Atreyagaurav for pushing fixes which improved this
feature.
Functionality fixes and improvements
- Fix: Saving a PDF when `buffer-file-name` is missing will now prompt
for a filename (eg: in EWW) @akater #178
- Fix: Ensure `pixel-scroll-precision-mode` is deactivated correctly
@mssdvd #206
Installation and Platform Compatibility improvements
Please note: as of this release, users are not expected to manually set
anything on their machines during installation. (for example:
`$PKG_CONFIG_PATH`). The installation should **just work**. If it does
not, please open a ticket so that we can track it.
- Add `cairo-devel` to Void Linux package list @crzjp #203
