Possible solution for full screen images - Page 11

Mastacheata · 05-01-2012, 02:52 PM

I think I found a bug:
Open Bookmark Menu, when you have no bookmarks at all, hit Jump to Bookmark. An empty Menu will pop up titled just Menu with no entries.

Here comes the bug: When you hit the x in order to close this menu (might take another hit on the screen) you will get an "Application Error" popup saying "The selected application could not be started. Please try again."

Seen on Kindle Touch 5.1 with the 5.1 differential version and then the fix installed on top.

Yep, true!
I'll fix it in the next release (thanks 5.1.0 firmware.....)!
And I hope to bring back the landscape mode...

PS I check this crash....it seems to happen even if there are bookmarks...Is it the same for you?

silver18 · 05-02-2012, 01:12 PM

Here I am again!
Problem solved....It was weird: it seems like the new firmware doesn't like fixed width in select menus.
I did it in all select menus: only this one crashed...

Anyway, problem solved!

I'll test it and I'll release in a few days.

As regards landscape, looking in the browser it seems like everything is ready to receive the rotation.
So I have to wait till Amazon decides to introduce the WAF rotation.
Sorry about it, university claims its time and the rotation workaround I thought about has 2 problems I can't solve:
- title bar will remain on the right of the screen
- dropdown menus and alert boxes will be displayed rotated by 90°

Finally I need some feedbacks:
- do you want to change the length along with the width (i.e. with the same %)?
- do you prefer to change length and width separately (i.e. different %)?
- do you think changing the length is useless (if so, I'll remove the up and down arrows)?

And again:
- are you comfortable with the double tap timing?

Any news?

Maybe I just missed some previous post, but...
What happened with the "pinch" zoom option?

silver18 · 05-04-2012, 10:28 AM

That's another present from 5.1.0!!
I'm trying to fix it!

Hello! first post.
I just had to register and pop a thank you message for this ridiculously awesome extension because I nearly returned my touch because I couldn't read mangas as good as the kindle 4 non touch one. Thank god I found this one, took me awhile to actually set it up properly but it is working very well now!

I did actually find a bug, while reading a manga and going to the "reading menu" then "choose folder" I can see duplicate titles not sure if it was fixed though. Picture below.

I also found that bug and I fixed it some days ago!!
It will be part of the next release.
Thanks a lot for your feedback!!!

silver18 · 05-07-2012, 11:45 AM

Mmmm...I'm testing latest fixes!

While testing, and while waiting for Amazon to bring back the WAF rotation, I'm thinking about using thumbnails of every folder's first image (hopefully the cover of a comic book) to choose which folder open...

Tap on a thumbnail to open corresponding folder...
Would you like it?
Would you prefer to keep both methods (dropdown menu with titles AND thumbnails)?

I just found out how to do this!
Next release will have also folder name and page number in title bar!

I like thumbnail but want to keep the titles too. It will be confusing sometimes without the folder name.

Title list option could be appropriate for some cases like long lists

This is great, too.
Thanks again for your hard work on this app.

Finally, reading manga on my kindle doable. (I had thought a bigger screen than my old sony would mean easier to read... no such luck. So many, many thanks. My to read pile gets larger by the day...)

Feature request:

Empty directories
I use a nested directory structure with the parent directory being the manga title and the children directories being the individual chapters As your code is written now, it errors out when I choose the "parent" directory and clutters up the folder list.

Right now I see:
1. Comic Title
2. Comic Title\1
3. Comic Title\2
It would be awesome if it would show me only rows #2 and #3. Just an aesthetics thing.
CBC support

I save my manga in volumes in calibre using the CBC file format. It's basically a zip file holding CBZ files. Eventually, would it be possible to have the image gallery be able to view those files? That would assume the CBZ file contents are in the proper format, of course.

Thanks for the hard work.

Hi there,

just recently I bought a KT and I am amazed to see such a creative community!
I didn`t manage to put the mentioned application to my kindle just yet, but will try it tomorrow.
Is there any detailed information on how to get the gallery onto the kindle, or where the newest version is - except in this thread? Should there be a entry in the wiki?

I would try to help with these things, as long as my help as a newbie kindle owner and as a mere user is useful.

Greetings and keep up the good work!
