Missing functionality in PDFKit?


  • Subject: Missing functionality in PDFKit?

I have been experimenting with the PDFKit, and have run into some roadblocks. Either there is some missing functionality, or I am missing something. Specifically:

1.) PDFAnnotationButtonWidget - You can find out what controlType a button widget is (kPDFWidgetUnknownControl, , kPDFWidgetPushButtonControl, kPDFWidgetRadioButtonControl, kPDFWidgetCheckBoxControl) using

- (int)controlType

but could not find a (public) way to set the controlType.

2.) You can get the parentID of the PDFAnnotationButtonWidget, but there is no way to set it. From what I can see, if you make a couple of PDFAnnotationButtonWidgets of type kPDFWidgetRadioButtonControl, they need to have the same parentID for the radio buttons to function radially (i.e. exclusively selected).

3.) For a PDFAnnotationFreeText, the setColor: (defined in PDFAnnotation) sets the background color. I could not find a method that sets the text color of this class.

4.) Is there any way (now or planned) to get the path objects on a pdf page? (i.e. to be able to detect the paths that draw a line or a box on an existing page).

Just a few questions / items I have run into. Will probably find more, but wanted to get feedback on these items.

Pat
