Currently we'll only attempt to start from the current page when a new search is done, however for 'findagain' operations we'll always continue from the last match position.
This could easily lead to confusing behaviour if the user has scrolled to a completely different part of the document. In an attempt to improve this somewhat, for repeated 'findagain' operations, we'll instead reset the position to the current page when it's absolutely certain that the user has scrolled.
Note that this required adding a new
BaseViewer
method, and exposing that throughPDFLinkService
, in order to check if a given page is visible.In an attempt to avoid issues, in custom implementations of
PDFFindController
, the code checks for the existence of thePDFLinkService.isPageVisible
method before using it.Fixes #4141.
