feat: Long Click for File Deletion through File Browser#909

Added Delete Book option in Epub Settings
Fixed formatting and removes cache when deleting book
|
Would a yes/no confirmation be useful for this? It feels like it would be easy to be trying to delete the cache and accidentally select the wrong line and instantly delete your book |

42-47:⚠️ Potential issue | 🔴 Critical
DELETE_BOOKmenu item missing and string ID undefined — incomplete feature implementation.The
DELETE_BOOKenum value exists (line 15) with a handler inEpubReaderActivity.cpp, but is missing from themenuItemsvector (lines 42-47), making the feature inaccessible via the UI. Additionally, the corresponding string IDSTR_DELETE_BOOKdoes not exist in the i18n definitions (lib/I18n/I18nKeys.h), which must be added before this feature can work.Two changes are required:
- Add
STR_DELETE_BOOKtolib/I18n/I18nKeys.h- Add
{MenuAction::DELETE_BOOK, StrId::STR_DELETE_BOOK}to themenuItemsvector

src/activities/reader/EpubReaderActivity.cpp (2)
438-447: PreferRenderLockRAII pattern over raw semaphore calls for consistency and safety.Other cases in this file (e.g.,
DELETE_CACHEat line 412,jumpToPercentat line 333) use theRenderLockRAII wrapper. Using rawxSemaphoreTake/xSemaphoreGiveis inconsistent and risks leaving the mutex held if an exception or early return occurs between the calls.♻️ Proposed refactor to use RenderLock
case EpubReaderMenuActivity::MenuAction::DELETE_BOOK: { const std::string bookPath = epub->getPath(); const std::string cachePath = epub->getCachePath(); - xSemaphoreTake(renderingMutex, portMAX_DELAY); - section.reset(); - epub.reset(); - - // Delete the file and cleanup cache/recents - if (Storage.remove(bookPath.c_str())) { - RECENT_BOOKS.removeBook(bookPath); - Storage.removeDir(cachePath.c_str()); + { + RenderLock lock(*this); + section.reset(); + epub.reset(); } - xSemaphoreGive(renderingMutex); + + // Delete the file and cleanup cache/recents + if (Storage.remove(bookPath.c_str())) { + RECENT_BOOKS.removeBook(bookPath); + Storage.removeDir(cachePath.c_str()); + } pendingGoHome = true; break; }
443-446: Consider logging or notifying user on deletion failure.If
Storage.remove()fails, the operation silently falls through with no feedback. While the conditional guards against orphaning the recents entry, users may be confused when the book is still present after attempting deletion.💡 Example: Add logging for failure case
// Delete the file and cleanup cache/recents if (Storage.remove(bookPath.c_str())) { RECENT_BOOKS.removeBook(bookPath); Storage.removeDir(cachePath.c_str()); + } else { + LOG_ERR("ERS", "Failed to delete book file: %s", bookPath.c_str()); }

In `@lib/I18n/I18nKeys.h`:
- Around line 318-320: Run the i18n generator to produce the missing
I18nStrings.cpp so the new STR_DELETE_BOOK enum has corresponding string entries
and so I18n.cpp can find LANGUAGE_NAMES[] and CHARACTER_SETS[]; execute the
provided script: python scripts/gen_i18n.py lib/I18n/translations lib/I18n/
which will regenerate I18nStrings.cpp (and related arrays) to match the enums
declared in I18nKeys.h.
In `@lib/I18n/translations/czech.yaml`:
- Around line 285-286: Replace the invalid Czech value for STR_DELETE_BOOK
("kniga dJayakqa") with the correct Czech translation; update STR_DELETE_BOOK to
"Smazat knihu" in the Czech translations file and ensure the YAML value is UTF-8
encoded to avoid corruption.
In `@src/activities/reader/EpubReaderMenuActivity.h`:
- Line 15: The DELETE_BOOK path is currently triggering Storage.remove() without
confirmation; update the menu-action handler in EpubReaderActivity that
processes MenuAction::DELETE_BOOK to first show a modal yes/no confirmation
dialog to the user, and only call Storage.remove(...) when the user confirms;
ensure the dialog message clearly distinguishes "Delete book (irreversible)"
from "Delete cache" and that cancelling the dialog aborts deletion so existing
cache-deletion logic (MenuAction::DELETE_CACHE) remains unchanged.

In `@src/activities/reader/EpubReaderActivity.cpp`:
- Around line 442-459: The delete lambda doDelete clears reader state
(APP_STATE.openEpubPath, section.reset(), epub.reset()) before confirming
Storage.remove succeeded; change the flow so you first attempt

success perform RECENT_BOOKS.removeBook, RECENT_BOOKS.saveToFile,
Storage.removeDir(cachePath.c_str()), clear APP_STATE.openEpubPath, reset
section and epub, and set this->pendingGoHome / this->skipNextButtonCheck; on
failure keep the current state intact (release renderingMutex and surface an
error to the user) so the session isn’t lost.
- Around line 439-441: Replace the simple concatenation of

string: add a new i18n key/enum (e.g., StrId::STR_DELETE_BOOK_WITH_PATH) whose

string via I18N.get(STR_DELETE_BOOK_WITH_PATH) and format it with bookPath to
produce fullMsg; update the code that constructs fullMsg (the variable fullMsg
in EpubReaderActivity.cpp) to use the formatted localized string instead of
concatenation so translators can reorder or localize punctuation.

## Summary It's been a little while since the last release, but the community has been incredibly busy. With 155 changes from 48 contributors (30 of which were new!), there was a lot to cover. Here are some of the highlights: **🔤 Kerning, Ligatures, and Font Improvements** Text rendering gets a significant upgrade with proper kerning and ligature support, fixed-point fractional x-advance for more accurate character placement, and font compression improvements that reduce flash usage. **📝 Footnotes** Footnote anchor navigation lets you select a footnote reference and jump to the footnote text, then jump back. Slim footnotes support is also available for books that use inline footnotes. **📖 EPUB Optimizer** A new integrated EPUB optimizer can clean up and reprocess books for better compatibility with the reader, directly from the device. **🔋 Battery Charging Indicator** You can now see when your device is actively charging, with a visual indicator on the battery icon. **💾 Crash Diagnostics** When something goes wrong, the firmware now dumps a crash report to the SD card — even without USB plugged in. This makes it much easier to report and diagnose issues. **🌐 New Languages** The community continues to expand language support. New in this release: Turkish, Danish, Finnish, Polish, Dutch, Belarusian, Italian, Ukrainian, Romanian, Catalan, Vietnamese, and Kazakh — along with significant improvements to existing translations. **📂 File Management** Multi-select file deletion, BMP image viewer in the file browser, hidden directory browsing, and long-click file deletion from the file browser. **⚡ Performance** Under the hood, text layout switched from `std::list` to `std::vector`, HTML entity lookups are now O(log(n)), font rendering is faster, image decode is 5-20% faster with per-pixel overhead eliminated, and multiple string allocation hot paths were eliminated. Pre-indexing of the next chapter also reduces page-turn latency at chapter boundaries. --- Along with all of the above, there are many other additions including **WebDAV support**, **auto page turn**, **QR code for current page**, **split status bar settings**, **screenshot capture**, **JSON-based settings migration**, **light/dark theme groundwork**, and a long list of stability fixes and translation improvements. ## What's Changed ### Features * feat: Support for kerning and ligatures by @znelson in #873 * feat: footnote anchor navigation by @Uri-Tauber in #1245 * feat: slim footnotes

It's been a little while since the last release, but the community has been incredibly busy. With 155 changes from 48 contributors (30 of which were new!), there was a lot to cover. Here are some of the highlights: **🔤 Kerning, Ligatures, and Font Improvements** Text rendering gets a significant upgrade with proper kerning and ligature support, fixed-point fractional x-advance for more accurate character placement, and font compression improvements that reduce flash usage. **📝 Footnotes** Footnote anchor navigation lets you select a footnote reference and jump to the footnote text, then jump back. Slim footnotes support is also available for books that use inline footnotes. **📖 EPUB Optimizer** A new integrated EPUB optimizer can clean up and reprocess books for better compatibility with the reader, directly from the device. **🔋 Battery Charging Indicator** You can now see when your device is actively charging, with a visual indicator on the battery icon. **💾 Crash Diagnostics** When something goes wrong, the firmware now dumps a crash report to the SD card — even without USB plugged in. This makes it much easier to report and diagnose issues. **🌐 New Languages** The community continues to expand language support. New in this release: Turkish, Danish, Finnish, Polish, Dutch, Belarusian, Italian, Ukrainian, Romanian, Catalan, Vietnamese, and Kazakh — along with significant improvements to existing translations. **📂 File Management** Multi-select file deletion, BMP image viewer in the file browser, hidden directory browsing, and long-click file deletion from the file browser. **⚡ Performance** Under the hood, text layout switched from `std::list` to `std::vector`, HTML entity lookups are now O(log(n)), font rendering is faster, image decode is 5-20% faster with per-pixel overhead eliminated, and multiple string allocation hot paths were eliminated. Pre-indexing of the next chapter also reduces page-turn latency at chapter boundaries. --- Along with all of the above, there are many other additions including **WebDAV support**, **auto page turn**, **QR code for current page**, **split status bar settings**, **screenshot capture**, **JSON-based settings migration**, **light/dark theme groundwork**, and a long list of stability fixes and translation improvements. * feat: Support for kerning and ligatures by @znelson in crosspoint-reader#873 * feat: footnote anchor navigation by @Uri-Tauber in crosspoint-reader#1245 * feat: slim

## Summary It's been a little while since the last release, but the community has been incredibly busy. With 155 changes from 48 contributors (30 of which were new!), there was a lot to cover. Here are some of the highlights: **🔤 Kerning, Ligatures, and Font Improvements** Text rendering gets a significant upgrade with proper kerning and ligature support, fixed-point fractional x-advance for more accurate character placement, and font compression improvements that reduce flash usage. **📝 Footnotes** Footnote anchor navigation lets you select a footnote reference and jump to the footnote text, then jump back. Slim footnotes support is also available for books that use inline footnotes. **📖 EPUB Optimizer** A new integrated EPUB optimizer can clean up and reprocess books for better compatibility with the reader, directly from the device. **🔋 Battery Charging Indicator** You can now see when your device is actively charging, with a visual indicator on the battery icon. **💾 Crash Diagnostics** When something goes wrong, the firmware now dumps a crash report to the SD card — even without USB plugged in. This makes it much easier to report and diagnose issues. **🌐 New Languages** The community continues to expand language support. New in this release: Turkish, Danish, Finnish, Polish, Dutch, Belarusian, Italian, Ukrainian, Romanian, Catalan, Vietnamese, and Kazakh — along with significant improvements to existing translations. **📂 File Management** Multi-select file deletion, BMP image viewer in the file browser, hidden directory browsing, and long-click file deletion from the file browser. **⚡ Performance** Under the hood, text layout switched from `std::list` to `std::vector`, HTML entity lookups are now O(log(n)), font rendering is faster, image decode is 5-20% faster with per-pixel overhead eliminated, and multiple string allocation hot paths were eliminated. Pre-indexing of the next chapter also reduces page-turn latency at chapter boundaries. --- Along with all of the above, there are many other additions including **WebDAV support**, **auto page turn**, **QR code for current page**, **split status bar settings**, **screenshot capture**, **JSON-based settings migration**, **light/dark theme groundwork**, and a long list of stability fixes and translation improvements. ## What's Changed ### Features * feat: Support for kerning and ligatures by @znelson in crosspoint-reader#873 * feat: footnote anchor navigation by @Uri-Tauber in

## Summary It's been a little while since the last release, but the community has been incredibly busy. With 155 changes from 48 contributors (30 of which were new!), there was a lot to cover. Here are some of the highlights: **🔤 Kerning, Ligatures, and Font Improvements** Text rendering gets a significant upgrade with proper kerning and ligature support, fixed-point fractional x-advance for more accurate character placement, and font compression improvements that reduce flash usage. **📝 Footnotes** Footnote anchor navigation lets you select a footnote reference and jump to the footnote text, then jump back. Slim footnotes support is also available for books that use inline footnotes. **📖 EPUB Optimizer** A new integrated EPUB optimizer can clean up and reprocess books for better compatibility with the reader, directly from the device. **🔋 Battery Charging Indicator** You can now see when your device is actively charging, with a visual indicator on the battery icon. **💾 Crash Diagnostics** When something goes wrong, the firmware now dumps a crash report to the SD card — even without USB plugged in. This makes it much easier to report and diagnose issues. **🌐 New Languages** The community continues to expand language support. New in this release: Turkish, Danish, Finnish, Polish, Dutch, Belarusian, Italian, Ukrainian, Romanian, Catalan, Vietnamese, and Kazakh — along with significant improvements to existing translations. **📂 File Management** Multi-select file deletion, BMP image viewer in the file browser, hidden directory browsing, and long-click file deletion from the file browser. **⚡ Performance** Under the hood, text layout switched from `std::list` to `std::vector`, HTML entity lookups are now O(log(n)), font rendering is faster, image decode is 5-20% faster with per-pixel overhead eliminated, and multiple string allocation hot paths were eliminated. Pre-indexing of the next chapter also reduces page-turn latency at chapter boundaries. --- Along with all of the above, there are many other additions including **WebDAV support**, **auto page turn**, **QR code for current page**, **split status bar settings**, **screenshot capture**, **JSON-based settings migration**, **light/dark theme groundwork**, and a long list of stability fixes and translation improvements. ## What's Changed ### Features * feat: Support for kerning and ligatures by @znelson in crosspoint-reader#873 * feat: footnote anchor navigation by @Uri-Tauber in

Summary
Allow users to better manage their epub library by offloading unwanted or finished books and other files. Resolves #893
Added Delete Book shortcut in the fil browser. Delete function implements the new ConfirmationActivity to show file name and solicit user interaction before either returning to the file browser on a press of the back button, or proceeding to delete. Delete function then deletes the file and returns user to the file browser menu at the current directory. Video of it working on my machine attached here:

Additional Context
specific areas to focus on).
Certainly potential risks associated with file deletion. Please let me know if there are any concerns that need to be better addressed. I think this is a very good feature to have to go along with the new screenshots so you don't get stuck with a bunch of extra files on your device. Also I did add this to the user guide.
