Methods

pccViewer(optionsopt) → {PCCViewer.Viewer}

Creates and embeds a new viewer in the first element of the set of matched elements.

Each call to this method will create and return a unique ViewerControl object. This will call PCCViewer.Viewer#destroy on any existing viewer embedded in the selected element.

If plugin options are provided, then a new viewer is created in the selected element and a PCCViewer.Viewer object is returned. This will call PCCViewer.Viewer#destroy on any viewer that already existed in the selected element.

If plugin options are not provided, then a viewer is not created. Instead, the PCCViewer.Viewer object associated with an existing viewer is returned.

Parameters:
Name Type Attributes Description
options external:jQuery.fn~Options <optional>

Plugin options.
Returns:
Type
PCCViewer.Viewer

//Note: these are already included in the PrizmDoc Samples
var pluginOptions = {
    documentID: viewingSessionId,       // documentID is a required property
    language: languageItems             // language is a required property
};

$(document).ready(function () {
    // Creates a new viewer in the div with id="viewer1"

Methods

pccViewer(optionsopt) → {PCCViewer.Viewer}

Creates and embeds a new viewer in the first element of the set of matched elements.

Each call to this method will create and return a unique ViewerControl object. This will call PCCViewer.Viewer#destroy on any existing viewer embedded in the selected element.

If plugin options are provided, then a new viewer is created in the selected element and a PCCViewer.Viewer object is returned. This will call PCCViewer.Viewer#destroy on any viewer that already existed in the selected element.

If plugin options are not provided, then a viewer is not created. Instead, the PCCViewer.Viewer object associated with an existing viewer is returned.

Parameters:

When the viewer removes various elements, it looks for a data-pcc-removable-id to be defined on the HTML element. This id will match to the key defined in the uiElements object. Setting the value of that key to true, or not including the key at all, results in the respective elements being visible and active in the viewer. Setting the key to false will cause the viewer to remove that element at runtime.

This feature is enabled for viewerTemplate.html and contextMenuTemplate.html. The following data-pcc-removable-id keys are already defined by default:

  • "default": Clicking on a mouse tool button will toggle between sticky and non-sticky mode. The first click will trigger the tool in non-sticky mode, and every following click will toggle sticky mode on and off.

See the stickyToolsFilter option for more information.
stickyToolsFilter Object <optional>

When stickyTools is set to "on" or "default", this list will be used to define which tools will have the sticky behavior. By default, all drawing tools (such as EllipseAnnotation, RectangleRedaction, etc.) will have this enhanced behavior enabled.

See the stickyToolsFilter option for more information.
stickyToolsFilter Object <optional>

When stickyTools is set to "on" or "default", this list will be used to define which tools will have the sticky behavior. By default, all drawing tools (such as EllipseAnnotation, RectangleRedaction, etc.) will have this enhanced behavior enabled. Tools that do not appear on this list (and are not part of the defaults), or tools set to false, will never exhibit the sticky behavior.

This object can have any of the values listed in PCCViewer.MouseTool.Type, using the same keys as that enumerable. The values for these keys are true for enabled, and false for disabled.

See the stickyTools option for more information.

Note that for some tools, like Magnifier or PanAndEdit, this mode is not relevant, as these tools always remain active until the user chooses a new tool. Keeping them on or off the list will not change that tool's behavior.

Example: { RectangleAnnotation: true, PlaceSignature: false }
