Actually yes! I will sum up some sentences as an update:

I've implemented almost every annotation defined by the PDF 1.7 specification in libzathura with complete coverage. I am only missing printer marks which I will do tonight and I've skipped on watermarks, which we will not fully implement.

Then I am going to split up the form field code and re-check it, but I think its fine already and after that I am going to match all the information of our data types with the specification that I will hopefully finish also in the next days.

After that we will probably going to adapt the first plugin for libzathura and start implementing the GTK widgets which then will be used in zathura. In addition we need to discuss and design some further features like single character selection and methods to support formats like epub.

Best regards

Re: zathura - a document viewer

Hi there,

I have recently stumbled upon Zathura and I love it. There is, however, one small thing that is bugging me. The command box (the one you get when you press o to open a new file or / to search for something) has a green foreground and a white-ish background. As this is not my favourite combination of colors I've looked for a way to change it. Looking at the man page I did not see an variable that seems to correspond to the box I mean. So I've basically tried all *-bg variables, but I didn't find the right one...

Could you enlighten me on this matter?
Thank you for your time.

Sure thing:  http://pwmt.org/projects/girara/options/

We started to document our projects in a new way and we will figure out a better way to include the girara documentation in zathura.

All the best

The documentation on this site equals the one on the man page that I have been looking through.

Please forgive me, if I seem ignorant, but would you be able to point out the name of said box to me? I have attached a (part of a) screenshot for clarification.

The box (black background) above the one indicated (please forgive the German title) is the statusbar - at least statusbar-bg sets its background.

Best wishes,
feha.

Hi!

This is the inputbar, therefore: inputbar-bg smile

This actually makes a lot of sense. And at this point I assume that I have found a bug: The variable does not work. Setting inputbar-fg works fine, though as soon as I change it to inputbar-bg (just replaceing the f, so no spelling mistake) it uses the default colours again.

For completeness' sake: As far as I can tell my system is up to date.
# pacman -Q |grep zathura
zathura 0.2.9-1
zathura-pdf-mupdf 0.2.6-5
# pacman -Q |grep girara
girara 0.2.2-1

I don't have our latest changes completly in my mind, but we have some fixes regarding background problems in 0.2.3. You need to build it yourself or wait until it gets updated in the repositories. If that does not help, it might be caused by your GTK theme.

Thank you very much for your help. Manually installing girara version 0.2.3 fixed the issue.

E: As of 20/10/14 the update is available in the official repositories and works fine.

Re: zathura - a document viewer

I have a problem when opening pdfs with pages of different sizes. There is always a large padding area between the pages. Is there anything I can do to change that?

This is a known bug and will be fixed in one of the future releases.

Re: zathura - a document viewer

I would like to share the history with other clients, i.e. read a PDF on one computer, close it, open it on another one and continue where I left off. However, the file ~/.local/share/zathura/history saves absolute filenames. Is it possible to save the basename instead?

That would likely lead to conflicts. However, saving a hash should work (or even just a hash of some header data).

Re: zathura - a document viewer

Hello,

I've just discovered zathura and I really like it but I have a small issue: I cannot get it to pick up my rc file, neither in ~/.zathurarc or in ~/.config/zathura/zathurarc

I have:
girara 0.2.2-1
zathura 0.2.9-1
zathura-djvu 0.2.3-2
zathura-pdf-poppler 0.2.5-1
zathura-ps 0.2.2-2

Any idea? Should I upgrad to girara 0.2.3?

Also the option show-scrollbars doesn't seem to have any effect.
Cheers,

Hi,

This is odd, but please upgrade to the latest versions of zathura and girara. girara is developed mostly along with zathura, but I can't recall any changes regarding the configuration file lately. Do you see any output on the command line? Any errors/warnings?

All the best

I get one warning but it's only:

The warning is okay and you can ignore it. What is in your ~/.config/zathura/zathurarc file? Have you modified your XDG paths?

Hello,

No I haven't modified the XDG paths.
The content of the file is the following:

# zathurarc

       # colors
       #set statusbar_bgcolor #00FF00
       #set statusbar_fgcolor red

       # settings
       #set height 768
       #set width 1366
       set adjust_open width

       # key bindings
       map <PageUp> navigate previous
       map <PageDown> navigate next

       map + zoom in
       map - zoom out
	   map <F11> toggle_fullscreen
	   map <F10> toggle_index
	   map <Return> toggle_inputbar
 	   map <F8> toggle_statusbar
 	   map <C-q> quit
	   map f focus_inputbar
	   map n navigate next

Is anything wrong?

Re: zathura - a document viewer

In man zathurarc a possibility is described to change color of a tabbar. However, in man zathura there is no description about the possiblity to work with several documents in tabs. I am alos not finding any similar functionality from inside of zathura or by trying Google.

Do I misunderstand this point in man zathurarc or any additional information or is there a possibility to work with tabs or several open documents?

(Thank you for zathura by the way, it's awesome)

Zathura doesn't have tab support (unless this has changed very recently).  You have to use something like tabbed (which I personally don't consider worth it).

Agreed. I would have prefered a buffer switch like :b FOO in vim anyhow.

Thx for the response.
