refactor: move render() to Activity super class, use freeRTOS notification (#774)
## Summary Currently, each activity has to manage their own `displayTaskLoop` which adds redundant boilerplate code. The loop is a wait loop which is also not the best practice, as the `updateRequested` boolean is not protected by a mutex. In this PR: - Move `displayTaskLoop` to the super `Activity` class - Replace `updateRequested` with freeRTOS's [direct to task notification](https://www.freertos.org/Documentation/02-Kernel/02-Kernel-features/03-Direct-to-task-notifications/01-Task-notifications) - For `ActivityWithSubactivity`, whenever a sub-activity is present, the parent's `render()` automatically goes inactive With this change, activities now only need to expose `render()` function, and anywhere in the code base can call `requestUpdate()` to request a new rendering pass. ## Additional Context In theory, this change may also make the battery life a bit better, since one wait loop is removed. Although the equipment in my home lab wasn't been able to verify it (the electric current is too noisy and small). Would appreciate if anyone has any insights on this subject. Update: I managed to hack [a small piece of code](https://github.com/ngxson/crosspoint-reader/tree/xsn/measure_cpu_usage) that allow tracking CPU idle time. The CPU load does decrease a bit (1.47% down to 1.39%), which make sense, because the display task is now sleeping most of the time unless notified. This should translate to a slightly increase in battery life in the long run. ``` PR: [40012] [MEM] Free: 185856 bytes, Total: 231004 bytes, Min Free: 123316 bytes [40012] [IDLE] Idle time: 98.61% (CPU load: 1.39%) [50017] [MEM] Free: 185856 bytes, Total: 231004 bytes, Min Free: 123316 bytes [50017] [IDLE] Idle time: 98.61% (CPU load: 1.39%) [60022] [MEM] Free: 185856 bytes, Total: 231004 bytes, Min Free: 123316 bytes [60022] [IDLE] Idle time: 98.61% (CPU load: 1.39%) master: [20012] [MEM] Free: 195016 bytes, Total: 231532 bytes, Min Free: 132460 bytes [20012] [IDLE] Idle time: 98.53% (CPU load: 1.47%) [30017] [MEM] Free: 195016 bytes, Total: 231532 bytes, Min Free: 132460 bytes [30017] [IDLE] Idle time: 98.53% (CPU load: 1.47%) [40022] [MEM] Free: 195016 bytes, Total: 231532 bytes, Min Free: 132460 bytes [40022] [IDLE] Idle time: 98.53% (CPU load: 1.47%) ``` --- ### AI Usage While CrossPoint doesn't have restrictions on AI tools in contributing, please be transparent about their usage as it helps set the right context for reviewers.

feat: unify navigation handling with system-wide continuous navigation (#600)
This PR unifies navigation handling & adds system-wide support for continuous navigation. ## Summary Holding down a navigation button now continuously advances through items until the button is released. This removes the need for repeated press-and-release actions and makes navigation faster and smoother, especially in long menus or documents. When page-based navigation is available, it will navigate through pages. If not, it will progress through menu items or similar list-based UI elements. Additionally, this PR fixes inconsistencies in wrap-around behavior and navigation index calculations. Places where the navigation system was updated: - Home Page - Settings Pages - My Library Page - WiFi Selection Page - OPDS Browser Page - Keyboard - File Transfer Page - XTC Chapter Selector Page - EPUB Chapter Selector Page I’ve tested this on the device as much as possible and tried to match the existing behavior. Please let me know if I missed anything. Thanks 🙏  --- Following the request from @osteotek and @daveallie for system-wide support, the old PR (#379) has been closed in favor of this consolidated, system-wide implementation. --- ### AI Usage Did you use AI tools to help write this code? _**PARTIALLY**_ --------- Co-authored-by: Dave Allie <dave@daveallie.com> |

feat: UI themes, Lyra (#528)
## Summary ### What is the goal of this PR? - Visual UI overhaul - UI theme selection ### What changes are included? - Added a setting "UI Theme": Classic, Lyra - The classic theme is the current Crosspoint theme - The Lyra theme implements these mockups: https://www.figma.com/design/UhxoV4DgUnfrDQgMPPTXog/Lyra-Theme?node-id=2003-7596&t=4CSOZqf0n9uQMxDt-0 by Discord users yagofarias, ruby and gan_shu - New functions in GFXRenderer to render rounded rectangles, greyscale fills (using dithering) and thick lines - Basic UI components are factored into BaseTheme methods which can be overridden by each additional theme. Methods that are not overridden will fallback to BaseTheme behavior. This means any new features/components in CrossPoint only need to be developed for the "Classic" BaseTheme. - Additional themes can easily be developed by the community using this foundation    ## Additional Context - Only the Home, Library and main Settings screens have been implemented so far, this will be extended to the transfer screens and chapter selection screen later on, but we need to get the ball rolling somehow :) - Loading extra covers on the home screen in the Lyra theme takes a little more time (about 2 seconds), I added a loading bar popup (reusing the Indexing progress bar from the reader view, factored into a neat UI component) but the popup adds ~400ms to the loading time. - ~~Home screen thumbnails will need to be generated separately for each theme, because they are displayed in different sizes. Because we're using dithering, displaying a thumb with the wrong size causes the picture to look janky or dark as it does on the screenshots above. No worries this will be fixed in a future PR.~~ Thumbs are now generated with a size parameter - UI Icons will need to be implemented in a future PR. --- ### AI Usage While CrossPoint doesn't have restrictions on AI tools in contributing, please be transparent about their usage as it helps set the right context for reviewers. Did you use AI tools to help write this code? _**PARTIALLY**_ This is not a vibe coded PR. Copilot was used for autocompletion to save time but I reviewed, understood and edited all generated code. --------- Co-authored-by: Dave Allie <dave@daveallie.com> |

feat: Display epub metadata on Recents (#511)
* **What is the goal of this PR?** Implement a metadata viewer for the Recents screen * **What changes are included?** | Recents | Files | | --- | --- | | <img alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/e0f2d816-ddce-4a2e-bd4a-cd431d0e6532" /> | <img alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/3225cdce-d501-4175-bc92-73cb8bfe7a41" /> | For the Files screen, I have not made any changes on purpose. For the Recents screen, we now display the Book title and author. If it is a file with no epub metadata like txt or md, we display the file name without the file extension. --- Did you use AI tools to help write this code? _**< YES >**_ Although I went trough all the code manually and made changes as well, please be aware the majority of the code is AI generated. --------- Co-authored-by: Eliz Kilic <elizk@google.com> |

My Library: Tab bar w/ Recent Books + File Browser (#250)
# Summary
This PR introduces a reusable Tab Bar component and combines the Recent
Books and File Browser into a unified tabbed page called "My Library"
accessible from the Home screen.
## Features
### New Tab Bar Component
A flexible, reusable tab bar component added to `ScreenComponents` that
can be used throughout the application.
### New Scroll Indicator Component
A page position indicator for lists that span multiple pages.
**Features:**
- Up/down arrow indicators
- Current page fraction display (e.g., "1/3")
- Only renders when content spans multiple pages
### My Library Activity
A new unified view combining Recent Books and File Browser into a single
tabbed page.
**Tabs:**
- **Recent** - Shows recently opened books
- **Files** - Browse SD card directory structure
**Navigation:**
- Up/Down or Left/Right: Navigate through list items
- Left/Right (when first item selected): Switch between tabs
- Confirm: Open selected book or enter directory
- Back: Go up directory (Files tab) or return home
- Long press Back: Jump to root directory (Files tab)
**UI Elements:**
- Tab bar with selection indicator
- Scroll/page indicator on right side
- Side button hints (up/down arrows)
- Dynamic bottom button labels ("BACK" in subdirectories, "HOME" at
root)
## Tab Bar Usage
The tab bar component is designed to be reusable across different
activities. Here's how to use it:
### Basic Example
```cpp
#include "ScreenComponents.h"
void MyActivity::render() const {
renderer.clearScreen();
// Define tabs with labels and selection state
std::vector<TabInfo> tabs = {
{"Tab One", currentTab == 0}, // Selected when currentTab is 0
{"Tab Two", currentTab == 1}, // Selected when currentTab is 1
{"Tab Three", currentTab == 2} // Selected when currentTab is 2
};
// Draw tab bar at Y position 15, returns height of the tab bar
int tabBarHeight = ScreenComponents::drawTabBar(renderer, 15, tabs);
// Position your content below the tab bar
int contentStartY = 15 + tabBarHeight + 10; // Add some padding
// Draw content based on selected tab
if (currentTab == 0) {
renderTabOneContent(contentStartY);
} else if (currentTab == 1) {
renderTabTwoContent(contentStartY);
} else {
renderTabThreeContent(contentStartY);
}
renderer.displayBuffer();
}
```
