JavaScript

Page initialization

• $('.sketchbook-viewer').bookviewer('bindBookSetHandlers');
  Binds handlers for the page set, page previews, and book previews.
• $(document).bookviewer('bindKeyedNavigation');
  Configures navigation from page to page using right and left arrow keys, and right and left swipes on tablets.
• $('.header').bookviewer('toggleHeader', 4000);
  • With the 2nd argument value of 4000, replaces the "normal" header element with a minimized version after 4 seconds.
  • After the header is minimized, it can be restored by mousing over the minimized header.
  • After mousing out of the "normal" header it is again swapped with the minimized version.
  • The default minimized header element selector is .minimized-header and should be hidden initially.
