Thorium Reader v1.7.1

Summary

Version 1.7.1 was released on 18 June 2021.

This release includes the following (notable) new features, improvements and bug fixes:

  • MathML support: updated to latest MathJax library (3.2.0)
  • OPDS catalog: prevent adding the same feed URL multiple times
  • Publication rendering: automatically hide mouse cursor in document viewport when inactive for 1 second
  • OPDS authentication: title was not human-readable in some cases
  • User interface: in fullscreen mode, automatically hide bottom and top user interface controls after 1 second of inactivity (reactivated during keyboard activity)
  • Text To Speech: support for SVG aria-label attribute and title element, new "read aloud" option for enabling/disabling utterance splitting (textual sentence detection), and possibility to skip fragmented text when invoking the previous/next navigation commands using the alt+shift key modifiers on button click, or using the available alternative keyboard shortcut
  • Content navigation UX: modal overlay panel (table of contents, landmarks, bookmarks, search, goto page) automatically closes on button/hyperlink click and keyboard enter events, except when trigerred with key modifiers shift+alt
  • OS integration: removed installer association of PDF, OPF and ZIP file extensions to avoid hijacking existing file type handlers (Thorium icon and default app launcher). This removes the "open with.." menu and double click from file explorer / Finder, but Thorium continues to support these file types via drag and drop and file chooser
  • Localization: new Swedish translation, and updated Portuguese (Portugal)
  • Fixed audio/video "track" support (CORS cross origin media URL)
  • Publication information (modal dialog overlay): now displays audiobook tracks and duration
  • PDF: removed broken paginated / column options
  • Library / bookshelf tags: avoid showing the special "about Thorium" auto-generated publication

Developer Notes:

  • The standard-changelog utility (npx standard-changelog --first-release) somehow only generates a limited number of commits, so we use a one-liner command line / shell script instead:
