Highlighting on BOOX Poke2

August 5, 2020, 6:47 am

I am using KOReader 2020.07.01 on Boox Poke2 and am very happy with its performance. The only thing I noticed is that if I start marking some text with to goal to make a bookmark out of it, the marked text is almost unreadable.
Then I changed the settings for Highlighting from Lighten to Invert, and this improved only how the final bookmark looks like (inverted, looks perfectly good), but this doesn't influence marking of the text.

You can see in the attached image - in the upper part there is a text being marked, prior to adding it as a note. Below, there is a text marked before added as note - looks good, while the currently being marked looks bad ...

What I'd wish is that also the text being marked shows up as Invert if configured so in Highlighting settings, or can this be configured somewhere also ?

Thanks, Norbert

The Fonts menu

Hello,

The fonts shown in the fonts menu are taken from the two folsers (koreader\fonts and ereader \fonts and listed altogether in the same sorted list. Is there a way to have them sorted separately in the same list (all fonts in folder one followed by all fonts in folder two ...) or even in different menu entries?

I am not sure if it makes sense to anybody else, but having my sideloaded fonts (from ereader \fonts folder) sorted together with koreader standard fonts (from koreader\fonts folder) is quite uneffective. Of course, I can live with it, as KOReader is an excellent piece of software.

Thank you!

Hi, in both the formats the carriage return are not shown. But the new paragraph yes.

Can I change any option in KOreader or I'm forced to modify the documents?

Manga double page

August 14, 2020, 1:28 am

Hello,

i have some manga that are double page.
That means, i have both pages in the same picture in my CBZ.
For example :
- image 1.jpg : [PAGE2 PAGE1]
- image 2.jpg : [PAGE4 PAGE3]
- image 3.jpg : [PAGE6 PAGE5]
Because in manga, the first page is on the right instead of the left.

I am reading with my Kobo Libra in portait mode.
When using the zoom with 'width of the page' or 'width of the content', the zoom in 'auto' (not 'semi auto' or 'manual'), in 'page mode' (not 'continue mode'), when i open the book, KOreader displays :
- the left of the image (image 1 / PAGE2)
- when i change page, it displays the right of the image (image 1 / PAGE1)
- when i change page, it displays the left of the next image (image 2 / PAGE4)
- when i change page, it displays the right of the image (image 2 / PAGE3)
The fact that the zoom displays the left then the right of the same image is very smart, but not with manga.

There is a setting to indicate at KOreader that the current book is a manga, so the zoom will display first the right of the image, then the left ?

Thank you

Failed to connect error

Hello,

Since a few nightlies ago I got the following error when trying to open a wifi connection via a request for update:

Failed to initialize network control client: Failed to connect to wpa_supplicant control socket: /var/run/wpa_supplicant/eth0.

If wifi is on and active when starting koreader all is fine. Otherwise I get this error when trying to update koreader. What should I do to get over it?

If relevant: I run Kobo KA1 with last firmware. KOReader starts via NM, without kfm being installed.
Thank you.

Problems with Calibre and Koreader

Hi, sorry for the preamble, but I just got my first E-reader (kobo forma) and I love it! Also, since I'm new to this forum, sorry if this is in the wrong section and should be under calibre.

I installed KOreader and calibre and even though there are some kinkds, it's been mostly fine. However, recently I added a series to my device through calibre, and stuff started didn't seem to work well.

First off, the tags don't seem to work? I set tags for all my books in calibre, however, when I try to search by calibre metadata -> view tags, no tags are shown. Rather, when I click on any book and view the book information, the tags are under the Keywords section?

Also, when searching by series, things don't seem to work completely well that way either. Only certain books in the series are displayed when searching by calibre metadata -> browse series. Normally this wouldn't be a problem, but since the series is written by multiple authors, there's no way to view all the books in one place since calibre puts books into folders by author. I did label the series by number (so "series name [#]") which I thought could be causing the problem, but that's not the case. Seemingly arbitrarily the majority of the books (20+) aren't shown in the series category, which only shows three of the books (1, 13, 5). Those three books are in the same folder, but there are other books in that folder too, so I'm completely stumped how KOreader is handling all of this...

Right now this isn't really a problem since I haven't started on that series, but when I do...

Thanks for any and all help!

How to follow a link on a non-touch device?

I use KOReader on Kindle 4 NT, a device which neither has a physical keyboard nor a touchscreen. A .epub file which I read has an in-line link inside of it on each of footnotes which allows for a very easy access to the relevant footnote, however, I don't seem to find any way for me to press on a link (on CoolReader 3, all I had to do was press Keyboard+Up, for example). Is there any way for me to follow an in-line link on my Kindle 4 NT, or on any non-touch device for that matter?

WiFi behavior in KOReader 2020.08

I know there were some changes to wifi in latest release, but i have some unwanted behavior that im not sure if its a bug or a "feature".
Every time i open a book wifi displays the connection dialog and automatically connects. If i turn it off while in the book and press sleep button it again shows the connection dialog before it goes to sleep, and when after that i wake it up from sleep it yet again displays the dialog and connects to wifi.
When in main menu it doesnt do this.
Options i have checked are "When off:turn on" and "When done: turn off".
99% of the time i dont use wifi, and i need it only to automatically connect when upgrading koreader or starting opds, ftp client and similar plugins(like it was giving the prompt in previous version), or if this is not posible then disable auto connect altogether for which i cant seem to find a option to check.

Any suggestions?

Koreader for Android cannot be controlled by Xbox Bluetooth controller


Device: Moan inkPad X

System: Android 8


problem:

My Ebook reader is connected to the Xbox wireless controller via Bluetooth.
In other readers, page turning and applications can be controlled normally via Bluetooth.


But I cannot control Koreader with the handle.
Please be compatible with Bluetooth page turner control function

Page numbers in Evernote plugin

Hello (and sorry if this question was already asked elsewhere -- I couldn't find it),
I would like to know if there exists some workaround re this behaviour of the Evernote plugin:
1. I make highlights on page 100 of an epub
2. I decrease the font size (--> page 100 becomes page 90)
3. I make another highlight in a portion of the text following the first highlight
4. when I then export the highlights with the Evernote plugin, in the file created there is first highlight #2 from "page 90", then highlight #1 from "page 100".
This makes the order of the highlights impossible to follow. It, of course, causes no real problems with two highlights but becomes an issue with a long book if there are many highlights and I change the font size in the middle of it.
I'd be very thankful if someone could suggest something.

KOReader with color?

Hello,

I installed KOReader on my Pocketbook Color (633) and although there is an menu item suggesting the use of a color screen ([cog] [Screen] [Color rendering]), everything is in shades of grey.

Anyone else either have the same issue or have succeeded in displaying color on their Pocketbook Color in KOReader.

(disclaimer, i'm very new to KOReader. Also, if someone could enlighten me as to how or if I can display the books without having to go in and out of all the author folders?)

Thanks

Frontlight is not refreshed in status bar (PW1)

I use the tap corner gesture to turn frontlight on and off. When the state is off, and I turn the frontlight on this way, the status bar is refreshed correctly, showing the level of the frontlight. But the next tap, when I switch it off again, doesn't end up in a status bar refresh, that is, the frontlight level remains a number instead of the label "Off" until the next page refresh.

Footnotes in footnotes

September 3, 2020, 9:10 am

I was reading a book in a book with footnotes (or rather endnotes), and found the not too uncommon case of a footnote within a footnote... The book is coded by yours truly, and the structure is pretty simple:

text.xhtml:
Code:
<p>Lorem ipsum.<a class="call" href="footnotes.xhtml#n1>[1]</a></p>
footnotes.xhtml
Code:
<div class="footnote" id="n1">
<p>1 Footnote.<a class="call" href="#n2>[2]</a></p>
</div>

<div class="footnote" id="n2">
<p>2 Footnote.</p>
</div>
I have the "inline footnotes" tweaks enabled, and it looks pretty good for first-level footnotes, but I can't find any way to access the footnote in footnote, other than paging all the way to the end of the book and finding where the corresponding endnote sits (actually, footnote 2 appears as an inline footnote on the page for footnote 1, so that works). Touching the "[2]" link on the footnote achieves nothing but a page turn. If I disable the inline footnotes, I get a popup, where the touching the link is as useless as before.

Am I missing something? Is this worth reporting as an issue on GitHub?

PS. By the way, the footnote numbers are actually back-links to the main text... but touching them in the endnotes pages doesn't seem to work either. Maybe this is because they are very close to the margins, though.

Is it possible to make Koreader my default launcher application?

I'm using a Nook BNRV510 (aka The Glow2 aka the GlowLight 6"). I'm rooted and the Koreader app works great. I use the android-arm latest release. The only downside is that when I press HOME on my ereader, it goes to my launcher, RelaunchX. I can launch books from there into Koreader, but I'd really rather just stay in Koreader completely. Can this be done?
