Option to open PDFs in external app #1343

Closed zerodogg closed 1 month ago

zerodogg commented 5 months ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. On my tablet, the pdf.js renderer is somewhat slow (and touchpad interaction/swiping is currently missing). Evince is quite a bit faster, which on a low-powered tablet (mine is 1.6GHz) makes quite a bit of difference. I'd still like to have my "library" in Foliate, unlike what I have now which is epubs in foliate, and PDFs in evince.

Describe the solution you'd like An option that will open PDFs in an external app (xdg-open?) instead of using the builtin PDF-support.

Describe alternatives you've considered The alternative right now is just using evince directly. It works, but the result is that I have two "libraries" instead of one.

This has been fixed with #1372.
