controller property

An object that is used to control the navigation and zooming operations in the SfPdfViewer.

A PdfViewerController is served for several purposes. It can be used to change zoom level and navigate to the desired page, position and bookmark programmatically on SfPdfViewer by using the zoomLevel property and jumpToPage, jumpTo and jumpToBookmark methods.

This example demonstrates how to use the PdfViewerController of SfPdfViewer.

class MyAppState extends State<MyApp>{
late PdfViewerController _pdfViewerController;

 @override
 void initState(){
   _pdfViewerController = PdfViewerController();
   super.initState();
 }

 @override
 Widget build(BuildContext context) {
   return MaterialApp(
     home: Scaffold(
       appBar: AppBar(
          title: Text('Syncfusion Flutter PdfViewer'),
          actions: <Widget>[
             IconButton(
                icon: Icon(
                   Icons.zoom_in,
                    color: Colors.white,
                ),
                onPressed: () {
                   _pdfViewerController.zoomLevel = 2;
                },
             ),
             IconButton(
                icon: Icon(
                   Icons.arrow_drop_down_circle,
                    color: Colors.white,
                ),
                onPressed: () {
                   _pdfViewerController.jumpToPage(5);
                },
             ),
          ],
       ),
       body: SfPdfViewer.asset(
         'assets/flutter-succinctly.pdf',
         controller: _pdfViewerController,
       ),
     ),
   );
 }
}
