--- Comment #25 from Tobias Deiminger <haxti...@posteo.de> --- > TypeWriter and Inline note need a better WYSIWIG than a popup widget Full ack. But that's not all, imho. The attachment 111769 and attachment 111770 make clear what I'm afraid of could happen to our typewriter/inline note feature if we go the easy way and just used a KTextEdit (even if it sticked and scrolled with the page). The screenshots are taken with PDF form fields from [0]. Form fields are user editable elements that scroll with the document, and nicely integrate with PageView via FormWidgetIface and QEvent. As thus, a typewriter feature could probably learn interesting things from FormWidget implementation. However FormWidgets have one weakness: They render content on their own by using KTextEdit, QRadioButton and so on - and overlay the page rendered by poppler. Using two different rendering engines with different settings for same purpose, namely Qt vs. poppler, evokes visual inconsistencies. Just see screenshots, or try it yourself. To avoid those inconsistencies, I'd like to promote the idea of widgets that have a FormWidget-like PageView integration, but use generator/poppler as the one and only render engine. @all: What do you think of that idea?
