Description

This class defines properties for displaying pages in a way convenient for reading.

It is applied when you assign Active = True. Before activating a read mode, assign the parent editor's PageProperty.PageViewMode = True.

The results depend on the parent editor's PageProperty.AutoWidth.

Side to side mode

If AutoWidth = False, pages are displayed at their normal size, i.e. pages look identically to pages displayed without a read mode.

However, there are the following differences:

•all pages are arranged in a horizontal row (the parent editor's PagePosProperty.MaxPageColCount is ignored)

•the horizontal scroll bar scrolls by whole pages; the vertical scroll bar is disabled; so all visible pages are shown completely

•the parent editor's ViewProperty.ZoomPercent becomes read-only; it is auto-calculated to show at least MinPageColCount pages completely.

•no more than MaxPageColCount pages are displayed at the same time.

Normal read mode

If AutoWidth = True, each page occupies all available space in the editor (excluding the parent editor's PagePosProperty.HPadding and VPadding).

Additionally:

•all pages are arranged in a horizontal row; only one page is visible (all column count properties are ignored)

•the horizontal scroll bar scrolls by whole pages; the vertical scroll bar is disabled; so a visible page is shown completely

•headers and footers are not displayed

 

Visual properties

In a read mode, special page transition effects are available. They are defined in PageFlipEffect property.

You can hide a page background picture and define a special page background color.
