Orizon Getting rid of the New status on books.

Rick_Aus · 05-04-2011, 01:40 AM

I got my Orizon and loaded all my eBooks onto it, exactly as expected.

However on the "Home" page under "Library" it shows all of these new books rather than the ones most recently read. This is annoying because I don't want to have to open all 500+ books on my device in order to be able to easily switch between the books I am currently reading.

Has anyone found a way of flagging all of the books on the device as not "New" so my Library section on the Home page will show my most recently opened?

Perhaps creating some auxiliary file will do?

For instance, in my Gen3 when I open a book a .dat file is created. If it's similar in the Orizon, creating such a file (either empty or with some default content) could mark the file as not new... You'd have to experiment.

Perhaps it may help you to use the folder option and to make a folder like "nowreading" where you put into all your recently read books?
