Method Detail

• getAppearanceStreamGenerator

  @Nullable() AppearanceStreamGenerator getAppearanceStreamGenerator()

  Returns custom appearance stream generator that overrides appearance stream generation of this annotation.

  Returns:

  Custom AP stream generator for this annotation or null when no custom appearance stream generator is set.

• setAppearanceStreamGenerator

   void setAppearanceStreamGenerator(@Nullable() AppearanceStreamGenerator appearanceStreamGenerator)

  Sets custom appearance stream generator that overrides appearance stream generation of this annotation. This method will also trigger a call to generateAppearanceStream to generate the annotation's appearance stream (if necessary).

  Note: Make sure to call this only after adding the annotation to the document. Additionally, this does not automatically remove existing appearance streams.

  Parameters:

  appearanceStreamGenerator - Appearance stream generator for this annotation or null to remove custom appearance stream generator from this annotation.

• getInReplyTo

  @Nullable() Annotation getInReplyTo()

  Retrieves the annotation this annotation replies to, or null it this annotation is not a reply or the license doesn't support replies feature.

  Note: this call may block for a while and should not be invoked on the main thread.

  Returns:

  Annotation this annotation replies to, or null.

• setInReplyTo

   void setInReplyTo(@Nullable() Annotation annotation)

  Sets the annotation that this annotation replies to.

  Parameters:

  annotation - Annotation to which this annotation is a reply.

• setMinimumAnnotationSizeForType

   static void setMinimumAnnotationSizeForType(@NonNull() AnnotationType type, @Nullable() Size size)

  Set the minimum size for the specified annotation type in PDF points. This can be used to override the default and can be retrieved from getMinimumSize

  Parameters:

  size - The minimum size.

• getInternal

  @RestrictTo(value = RestrictTo.Scope.LIBRARY_GROUP) InternalAnnotationApi getInternal()

  Gets APIs for restricted internal usage only.

• getCopy

  @Nullable() Annotation getCopy(@IntRange(from = 0) int pageIndex)

  Creates a copy of this annotation that isn't attached to the document with the page index set to given index. If this type of annotation can't be copied this method will return null.

  Note: This will reset the name of the resulting annotation to an automatically generated UUID if you want to keep the original name you have to manually set it on the returned copy.

  Parameters:

  pageIndex - The page index the copied annotation should belong to.

  Returns:

  A copy of this annotation or null if no copy could be made.

• getType

• setContentSize

   void setContentSize(@Nullable() RectF contentSize, boolean adjustedForPageRotation)

  Sets the inner bounds that are used when rotating the annotation. In order to keep the size consistent when rotating we need to remember the size when rotated 0° degrees.

  Core adds the page rotation to the annotation rotation when handling stamps/free text rotation. So when creating them we can't use the bounding box to initialize the content size when the page they are on is 90° or 270°. We need to flip the width and height so it is correct. The adjustedForPageRotation parameter indicates whether this was already done by the calling code or if it should be done automatically when the annotation is attached to the document.

  Parameters:

  contentSize - The content size to set in PDF coordinates.

  adjustedForPageRotation - true if the content size was already adjusted for the page rotation, false if it should be adjusted as soon as the annotation is attached to the document.
