Just got my iLiad today (yay

) love it, but I can't find (and this is probably my blindness) a go to page __ tool? There is one built in right. . .?
Thank you in advance,

There is a page bar at the bottom. You can click on that to jump to a page.

I believe there used to be a feature to bring up the keyboard and type in a specific page number, but it's no longer supported (not sure why).

Really, that sucks, when youre reading a book 1000+ pages kind of annoying to use the bar, o well, thanks anyways

Yeah, it's not great. Once you get close you can click on the square with the current page number and it'll switch from the "hash marks" to showing you specific page numbers surrounding your current location. You can use a combination of the two to get close and then fine tune to the page you want. It's kind of a pain though.

Personally, I don't need it that much since I tend to read books and am going through them sequentially anyway. I don't tend to jump around inside a document with the type of reading I do. But if you do that a lot I can see how it would be annoying.

meh, I'll be able to overcome it, it's more for just showing other people passages I like, or single poems in a collection, but I'm sure I'll get used to the bar, just takes time

(still love my iLiad)
