pop-up endnotes
Hi
@Kovid Goyal Congratulations for implementing so nicely the pop-up feature for the 2.9. viewer. It's working very well. I hope we'll see it soon in our readers too... You wrote that it's an "EPUB3 footnote markup": could you please give a reference link for this markup? |

Here's a simple write up:
http://www.heliconbooks.com/article/epubfootnote But you dont need to use EPUB 3 markup. You can just make your link a superscript or subscript and the viewer will consider it a popup automatically. For endnotes you can also use the following markup (no need to use superscripts/subscripts) In the main text (text.html) Code:
<a href="somefile.html#whatever" id="an_endnote">See this</a> Code:
<a href="text.html#an_endnote">back to main text</a> Last edited by kovidgoyal; 11-07-2014 at 09:58 AM. |

on the footnotes feature. Also, maybe the various device manufacturers could take a leaf out of your book?

Dear kovidgoyal,
Viewer (2.9) doesn't popup the following footnote. It always works with Moon+ Reader, though. Do I need to turn on any setting? Code:
<a href="#n1" epub:type="noteref"><span class="calibre4">[1]</span></a> Code:
<aside id="n1" epub:type="footnote"> <p class="textnote">(1): tháng giêng</p> </aside> Last edited by nqk; 11-10-2014 at 01:15 AM. |

You need to post a complete file demonstrating your problem.

Which footnote is causing the problem? I tried clicking (8) and (9) and they both worked. See screenshot.

Kovid - fresh install of 2.9 portable with default settings
The EPUB from nqk doesn't work for me either, I get taken to end of chapter when I click ref number, e.g. 8 or 9. I see no footnotes panel. And the viewer is not 'remembering' the window size, but it is 'remembering' text/background colour changes It's hasn't worked in the installed version on my books, but I've been assuming the links were badly formed. I've not followed it up is because the release notes said 'popups' and I hate popups - your screendhot shows a dockable (I think) panel which is exactly what I prefer BR Last edited by BetterRed; 11-12-2014 at 03:50 PM. Reason: misreported window sizing issue struck out (it's in pref->misc) |

Not working for me either.
Also, I got a weird error, running from source. Code:
calibre, version 2.9.0 WARNING: Errors while adding: There were problems adding some files, click "Show details" for more information ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Failed to read metadata from the file(s): C:/Users/eschwartz/Downloads/Thay Thong Ngon (1926) - Ho Bieu Chanh - vie.epub With error: Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Users\eschwartz\git\calibre\src\calibre\utils\ipc\pool.py", line 313, in worker_main File "C:\Users\eschwartz\git\calibre\src\calibre\ebooks\metadata\worker.py", line 58, in read_metadata File "C:\Users\eschwartz\git\calibre\src\calibre\ebooks\metadata\worker.py", line 38, in run_import_plugins File "C:\Users\eschwartz\git\calibre\src\calibre\customize\ui.py", line 158, in _run_filetype_plugins File "calibre_plugins.dedrm.__init__", line 77, in write IOError: [Errno 22] Invalid argument I do not get that when reverting the source to tag v2.9.0.

It's likely a windows specific bug then, I'll take a look at it in a bit.

@eschwartz: The add books and save to disk code is undergoing an overhaul at the moment. It still needs to be tested and fixed on windows.
