Version 6.9.3.68951 Changelog (December 18th, 2018)

• Version: 6.9.3.68951
• Release Date: December 18th, 2018
• Built with Xcode 10.1 (10B61)

New

• A number of new APIs allow for UI customization without modifying the source code of the open source Tools UI framework.

  • It is now possible to easily add, rearrange and remove buttons from the main toolbars displayed by a PTDocumentViewController or PTTabbedDocumentViewController.
  • It is now possible to easily add, rearrange and remove view controllers from a PTNavigationListsViewController (which by default contains the document outline, annotation list and user bookmarks).
• The annotation permission API has been improved so that code is less complex and supports code completion. (See the API differences section below).
• The annotation toolbar now allows changing an annotation's style before it is created:

• The annotation style picker shows as a popover on iPads and large iPhones in landscape:

• A new sample, Showcase, demonstrates a number of features of the Apryse SDK.

API differences

• Customizing annotation permissions has changed. The new APIs are cleaner and easier to write as they employ properties with full code completion, vs. text strings that required consulting documentation. For example:

Version 6.9.3+ (new method):

Shell

toolManager.inkAnnotationPermission.canCreate = false
toolManager.inkAnnotationPermission.canEdit = false
toolManager.highlightAnnotationPermission.canCreate = false
toolManager.highlightAnnotationPermission.canEdit = false

Version 6.8.7-6.9.2 (previous method):

Shell

toolManager.configure(with: ToolManagerConfiguration { builder in
    builder.annotPermissions = [
        .ink : [
            .canCreate : false,
            .canEdit : false,
        ],
        .highlight: [
            .canCreate: false,
            .canEdit: false,
        ],
    ]
})
