Hi,

I updated to the last rstudio version on windows and Sumatra is no more an available option as pdf viewer. Nevertheless the sumatra program is still installed in the app resources in the rstudio subdirectories. Can you please correct this or know somebody a way to choose a pdf viewer that is not listed in the options preferences ?

Thanks

Best regards

Hey there,

I was just learning about the way that the preview pane plug-in (ActiveX + Preview + Office + Web) works and I was able to set my standard PDF editor (Bluebeam) as my default program and Sumatra PDF as my viewer pane utility, which allows for some lovely fast loading (Bluebeam previewer was sluggish).


In the process I disabled all .pdf previewers for a moment and I noticed I was still able to preview them. It said something like "shell thumbnail" or similar. I believe that this was loading some sort of thumbnail of the PDF as an image. The cool thing is that I was able to zoom on the PDF in the viewer - something that is not supported at all by Sumatra preview nor is it well supported by Bluebeam.


My question is four-fold

1.) Is there a way to enable Sumatra to support zoom? It's SOOO fast to load!

2.) If I were to use the "shell thumbnail" option, would it allow me to scroll through multi-page PDF's? I assume no.

3.) Is there another lightweight / fast PDF viewer out there (similar to Sumatra) that would support zoom in the viewer pane?

4.) I noticed that when go from one image to the next, the Zoom choice (25%, 50%, etc.) is maintained. Can I make a setting adjustment to have it "fit to window" whenever a new file's preview is loaded? I saw this option was possible in the separate viewer app, but I want to control this behavior within the viewer pane.






There are a few other PDF viewers. I don't have much experience with them so I don't know which others might fit your needs. Adobe Reader, PDF-XChange and FoxIt are the main ones people use in addition to Sumatra.


Regarding #4, I think there's some miscommunication. The behavior I observe now is that when I set the zoom level for an image it applies that same zoom level to the next image. I would like it to reset to "fit to window" whenever I click on a new image rather than to apply whatever the previous setting was used. I read that this was possible in the standalone viewer, but I would like to control this behavior in the preview pane.


It is unlikely, although possible in other previewers, to zoom. That chunk of code has not been updated much in a long time. In fact the PDF preview of Windows 10 should provide zooming, or is it just my old inactive acrobat ? The previewers are...


They mentioned a couple of others that utilize Sumatra as a plugin.

1.) Far Manager (text based file manager)

2.) Total Commander (Formerly Windows Commander, $46, file manager)

3.) Universal Viewer ($26, file viewer of many many types, PDF viewing based on Sumatra)


Universal Viewer (at least if I've found the right one) looks like a standalone viewer app, not something that integrates into File Explorer or Opus's viewer panes, so that probably won't help (although I may be wrong).


Writing an Opus viewer plugin around the Sumatra code, in order to get more control over how it works than the preview handler offers, is certainly interesting. We didn't know that was an option before now. We'll add that to the list of things to look at, but it's a big enough piece of work that it will take a while before we can get started or look into it in detail. Thanks for drawing our attention to that, as it could be a good option in the future.


This sounds like a great option. Thanks for this idea. So if I call "Sumatra.exe -plugin ", it will load into the viewer pane? I would check with DOpus how to automate this call whenever the viewer pane is activated and I've selected a PDF file.


Will that get you anything different to what Sumatra's preview handler already does? It won't magically hook up the zoom in/out buttons in Opus to Sumatra, for example. (Sumatra may have it's own zoom buttons, though. Many PDF viewers do. But I thought your issue with the preview handler was the lack of that.)


Leo,

I may be totally wrong, but I understood this idea to be that the viewer pane would just be a blank window (no controls) and that an instance of SumatraPDF or a lightweight version / previewer could be called from DOpus and instantiated within the window, which would include whatever controls that Sumatra provides.


The previewer needs to be installed as a sub-module of windows which to be fast offers a reduced image for thumbnails and preview panes with only a scrollbar on the right to drag so as see other pages "quickly"


It is often necessary to save files (pdf or otherwise), to a folder and then go to it and open it outside your Browser or email program. Try that and see if it solves the issue. Let us know the result. Also, is it only this one pdf file or many pdf files. Finally, are you keeping up with the updates on sumatra pdf?

open PDF file with SumatraPDF viewer, which does not lock files against being edited.It is only available on windows, but comes bundled with Rstudio.If the executable is not found, openFile is called instead.

I suggest to first change some settings with sumatraInitialize().
