Hi, there.
After I update to 0.1.0, the mouse doesn't work any more. Can't scroll with mouse, no zoom with right button, etc.
I try to bind Button1 to quit, and this doesn't work either.

map <Button1> quit

Sorry to post it here instead of the bug tracker cause I don't have a pwmt account.

It works for me. Have you tried it without custom config file?

Put the following line in your zathurarc:
set adjust-open width
Best regards

i've added that line to ~/.config/zathura/zathurarc, but the default zoom level is not set to fit-to-width. any ideas?

This means you don't have any plugins installed yet. As I can see today the main zathura package has been updated, but there are no plugins available in the official repository right now. You can install them from the AUR though.

Yes, or install any of the following from the AUR:

zathura-pdf-poppler-git (for PDF support)
zathura-pdf-mupdf-git (for PDF support)
zathura-djvu-git (for DjVu support)
zathura-ps-git (for PostScript support)

I think the message in pacman could have explained this a little better. I wasn't even aware zathura had plugins (in the AUR or anywhere else), but then all of a sudden zathura stopped working because I had no plugins? Lucky I picked up on this before I headed off to work ...

BTW, thanks for the work on Zathura, it is a great document viewer .

Hello!
I install pdf-poppler and djvu plugins using git. I use instructions on pwmt.org, "git checkout --track develop origin/develop" result in error "fatal: Missing branch name; try -b". All other commands was succesfull.
Now zathura opens with this output in terminal:
info: succesfully loaded plugin /usr/lib/zathura/djvu.so
info: succesfully loaded plugin /usr/lib/zathura/djvu.so
info: Using plain database backend.
When i open document i get one or more messages: "cairo context error: invalid value (typically too big) for the size of the input (surface, pattern, etc.)" and i see only white screen.
Last versions of zathura, poppler and cairo installed from official repos.
What's the problem?

Thanks!

One problem, though: I had to remove zathura for zathura-girara-git. Now Zathura ignores my .config/zathura/zathurarc. Or is

set scroll_wrap false
set search_highlight red

not used that way now?

Thank you for this magnificent program, btw.

How soon are the plugins going to be packaged?

The option "scroll_wrap" is not available anymore; zathura should tell you this if you run it from command line and check the output. "search_highlight" has been renamed into "highlight-color" and "highlight-active-color". You find a list of available options here and a description of how to set them here.

Best regards

I don't know since I am not responsible for that, but I've created PKGBUILDs for those plugins anyway:

Just download them, run `makepkg` and then `pacman -U zathura-xxx.pkg.tar.xz`, but you should replace them
once the official packages are available.

Best regards

Hi, I have in my .zathurarc

set recolor_darkcolor #93a1a1
set recolor_lightcolor #002b36
set recolor true

(if anyone is interested, this makes zathura render pages in the solarized dark basic colour combination). This has stopped working wth the new zathura. I've also tried recolor-darkcolor (%s/_/-) but doesn't work either. I should maybe say that I'm running zathura-girara-git from the AUR -- was forced to do so by the new plugin system.

Thanks for any help.

Manolo

You have to use "recolor-darkcolor" and "recolor-lightcolor" and you have to put the color codes in quotes or escape the hash key:

set recolor-darkcolor "#93A1A1"
set recolor-lightcolor "#002B36"

What is the equivalent to scroll_wrap if any? Will you include that option? What is the purpose of not having it? It was quite a neat feature..

Thanks, it works now. It'd be helpflul, I think, to be a tad more explicit about the syntax for this option in the configuration page.

One last thing: my previous .zathurarc used my preferred colour combination by default, but in the new one I have to hit ^i to change to it. I don't remember what I did to achieve the former behaviour. Can you help me with that?

Thanks again!
Manolo

Hello,

The "recolor" setting as well as the "scroll-wrap" (when using sc_navigate) is now available in the git repository.
