zathura - a PDF viewer

0ld · 2010-04-23 20:53:13

I've noticed that reload of modified document doesn't work only if the recolor is on.
But if recolor is off it works well.

I am going to make myself feel really stupid, but I have gone through all the steps I can think of to find this information before asking. Where is the config.h file located? Someone asked before and was told it was in the same directory zathura was compiled in, but I installed via pacman, and I don't really know enough about the installation process to understand where I should be looking, Any help would be appreciated.

0ld · 2010-04-24 16:22:27

I'm sorry I don't know there exactly with Arch using. But in Gentoo if you use savedconfig flag portage stores config file in /etc/portage/savedconfig/packagename.
I think that something like this should be with pacman.

lth · 2010-04-25 22:03:01

Since the config.h is used during compile time, I don't think you'll get it in the binary you got from pacman. You'll probably need to build from abs or something.

I made a modification of the define LIST_PRINTER_COMMAND in the file config.h to work for other languages than english :

#define LIST_PRINTER_COMMAND "lpstat -v | sed -n '/^\\w* \\w* \\([_a-zA-Z0-9]*\\).*$/s//\\1/p'"

My system is in french so I only tested in this language but I think it will work for other languages.

Hello guys,

I don't know why but zathura isn't working with one special pdf created by pdflatex.

Here's the error.

This is pdfTeX, Version 3.1415926-1.40.10 (TeX Live 2009/Arch Linux)

I already tried to reinstall zathura but it didn't help.

What's the problem? The pdf respectively the tex document is organized similiar to another one that zathura opens without any problem.

Zathura is awesome. I didn't think I'd like navigating PDFs vim-style after trying apvlv, but zathura hits the nail on the head. Automatic page saving, and great config.h customization. Thanks for the great program!

tzervo · 2010-05-09 08:10:04

Just flooding this thread with another thanks message (couldn't resist ). Thanks, it is a great app!

int3 · 2010-05-10 18:13:52

orschiro: could you PM me (and maybe neldoreth as well) the TeX file that's causing the problem, as well as the similar file that works fine?

neldoreth · 2010-05-18 19:02:37

Hello,

I want to announce the release of version 0.0.4 of zathura and give a short overview about the new features and fixes:

* Mouse support : It is now possible to scroll with the mouse or select text that gets copied to the clipboard
* Keyboard navigation in the index view
* Introduced different goto modes: If the page offset is wrong (page 20 is page 24 in the document etc), zathura automatically detects that (if it is saved in the label section), or you just can set the offset manually
* Auto adjustment when opening a document
* Updated manpage and Makefile
* Escape filenames
* Fixed document update feature
* etc ...

You can get the current source from the follow link zathura-0.0.4.tar.gz or install it from the official repository (yay!) or just update to the latest git version in the AUR.

Best regards

One little problem with 0.0.4, I always do the following config

static const int   DEFAULT_WIDTH  = 1280;
static const int   DEFAULT_HEIGHT = 800;

In 0.0.3 it worked, the pages were shown from left to right edge. Now with 0.0.4 (and git, I also tested that) the page fits from top to bottom. Is this maybe a configuration problem?

lth · 2010-05-18 20:21:41

This isn't necessarily related to the 0.0.4 release, but each time I go to the next page when I reach the bottom of the page, the page "jumps" back to the top, before I get to the next page. So there's a little flicker each time I go to the next page.

You just have to set "ADJUST_OPEN" to "ADJUST_WIDTH" in your config.h. This should have nothing to do with your default window size.

Notice: We have updated the 0.0.4 source code archive with an additional patch that solved an annoying issue

Best regards

As of 0.0.4, or git version (May 19, 1130 GMT) zathura no longer displays any PDF document in my computer.
0.0.3 works fine.

I can not confirm that at all, can you specify your problem in more detail?

Best regards

I'm sorry, but I really don't know what you specify. I just upgraded and I can not view any PDF file. Here's 0.0.4 on the left, with 0.0.3 on the right.

OK, I am sorry, but I have no clue - Maybe you can join #pwmt on irc.oftc.net, so we may can track down the cause (commit) of this.

Yuck, I meant "what TO specify". Sorry about that.
Anyway, I'll try to do that ASAP, I'll contact you when I am available. Thanks!!

Hiato · 2010-05-20 13:02:47

Yeah, I too am now having the same issue as tvale.

Generic details (for what it's worth):
Arch64, Kernel 2.6.33.3, Xorg 1.8 (No HAL), ratpoison wm

OK, it would be nice, if you could join the irc channel some time soon too, so that we can figure that out.

I guess the version of gtk, poppler and cairo should be more interesting.

Best regards

jakob · 2010-05-20 15:49:18

I have no problems with the git version pulled from there and compiled yesterday…

tvale · 2010-05-20 16:42:31

gtk2-2.20.1-2
poppler-0.12.4-1
poppler-glib-0.12.4-1
cairo-1.8.10-1
kernel26-2.6.33.4-1
xmonad-0.9.1-4
xcompmgr-1.1.5-1

System is 64 bits. XMonad uses xcompmgr to render transparent unfocused windows... Don't know what else could be relevant.

Perhaps something regarding this?

* Auto adjustment when opening a document

Hello,

OK, I have all the same versions of the specified packages, although I use a different window manager (I tried it with xmonad and xcompmgr now and it is still working here). Like I said before, it would be really nice, if you can join the irc channel to find the commit that causes this at your system. If the error is caused by "Auto adjustment when opening a document" try to comment out line 504.

Best regards

Hello int3 and neldoreth,

what do you think about implementing a fullscreen presentation mode in which zathura can be used with arrow keys for navigating?

That would be ideal for beamer presentation where one doesn't want to navigate via shift+J or because one wants to use one of those nice usb presenters.

I mean zathura is great for viewing pdf's but not really comfortable for speeches, in my case they are supported by LaTex-Beamer presentations.

Regards

+1 what orschiro wrote, I will have to do a presentation in a few weeks and would love to be able to do it with zathura. I don't want to install evince for this task.
