DocumentViewerView Object

Summary

Manages the main content view in this document viewer.

Syntax
TypeScript
JavaScript
function lt.Document.Viewer.DocumentViewerView 
	implements IDisposable 
class lt.Document.Viewer.DocumentViewerView() 
	implements IDisposable 

Remarks

The DocumentViewerView object can be accessed by the DocumentViewer.View property.

This class manages the main content to view the pages of the current LEADDocument set in the document viewer.

The class creates an instance of ImageViewer for viewing the pages. Virtualization is used to load and cache the image data to keep the application user interface responsive, support documents with a large number of pages, and minimize the resources used. Both raster and SVG viewing modes are supported.

The class also handles the user's page interactions, such as the pan, zoom, and magnify interactive modes; inertia scrolling, page layouts and fit modes, and annotation container rendering.

When the Document Viewer is Created

  1. A new instance of DocumentViewerView is created and set in the DocumentViewer.View property.

  2. A new instance of the ImageViewer control is created and added as a child control to DocumentViewerCreateOptions.ViewContainer. This image viewer will be used to view the Raster or SVG image data of the pages when a LEADDocument is set in the viewer. This control can be accessed by using the ImageViewer property of this class. Refer to the property for information on how this ImageViewer is initialized.

  3. The interactive modes are initialized and added to ImageViewer.InteractiveModes.

When the Document Viewer is Destroyed

  1. The ImageViewer control is removed from the parent DocumentViewerCreateOptions.ThumbnailsContainer container.

  2. All resources are freed.

When a new Document is Set

The following behavior occurs when a new LEADDocument object is set in the DocumentViewer object using the DocumentViewer.SetDocument method. Behavior depends on the conditions under which the LEADDocument object is set.

  • If a previous document was set in the document viewer

  • If the new document set is null (the application just closed this document), then no further action is required.

  • If a new document is being set, then the following behavior occurs

    • PreferredItemType is checked, and if SVG viewing is requested, then DocumentImages.IsSvgViewingPreferred is checked and ItemType is updated accordingly.

    • An ImageViewerItem is created for each page in the document. The value of ImageViewerItem.ImageSize is set to the value of DocumentPage.Size of each page. The item is "empty" and does not contain image data. This is updated in the next step.

    • An internal worker handles the loading and caching of the image data of the pages in the background to keep the user interface of the application responsive. This worker is also used to minimize the resources used when loading a document with a large amount of image data and a large number of pages by prioritizing loading the data for visible pages while discarding the data for pages that are no longer used.

    • The Operation event occurs while the virtualizer is loading and discarding image data, and when rendering place holders for pages that do not have their data loaded yet. Refer to Document Viewer Operations for more information on the specific details and how to customize the behavior.

Commands

The DocumentViewerView Object handles the following commands:

  • All interactive modes are added to the ImageViewer created by this part. This includes panning, zooming, and magnifying glass operations as well as the page links, annotations, and text selection modes.

  • Multiple ImageViewerViewLayout objects such as single, vertical, double, and horizontal are created and can be used by the view.

  • Rendering of the image data of the pages as well as the current text selection and annotation container rendering.

Refer to Document Viewer Commands and Document Viewer Operations for more information on the above and how to set and customize the behavior.

Example

In this example, clicking the example button will add a callback for the render of each document page to draw the page number over the document page image.
