pageViewMode="book"

[Max-Morrelli]

Hi, I'd like to compliment you on the library. I wanted to ask you for an info, in book view mode the second page never loads. Let me explain when I click to turn the page, the page on the right is displayed and not the one on the left. What am I doing wrong?

It's not your fault. The bug you've discovered the reason why the book mode is still an experimental feature.

I suppose there's a workaround. When you use the chevrons to go to the next page, the second page is rendered.

So probably you can implement a (pageRendered) listener turning to the un-rendered page. I'll try this tomorrow. If this approach works, I can implement a low-level solution to make the pages render without further ado.

However, I don't understand why my previous attempts didn't work. I suspect the book mode plugin causes so much CPU load that pdf.js stops working properly. I hope to be able to reduce the CPU load, but to do so, I need to understand how https://nodlik.github.io/StPageFlip/ works internally. In theory, it's easy - don't update the CSS rules if nothing has changed - but when I tried to convert the idea to code, things quickly become messy.

Tnx for the answer. I wait for your feedback

Remind me if you don't hear from me during the next couple of days. Today I didn't find time for maintaining the library. I should stop making promises. :)

Please update to version 10.0.1. It uses the work-around I've been proposing. It's still not perfect, but most of the time, it does the trick now.

thank you very much, I will update you as I implement it
