CoolReader new version - Page 6

skydive · 06-06-2011, 10:43 PM

I forgot! on earlier version, when you select to take note in the menu, a select text message appears on the bottom and the when you try to select, nothing happens. Now you can select text, but it goes marking the text by paragraph instead of words. But at least is doing something now! just my 2 cents on notes..

CoolReader show the format better than FBreader. Its a great app. But could be the better with this functionality:

Use of stylus in dictionary search to select the word to show in dictionary.
The possibility of take notes.
TTS (text to speech)
Add mobi/prc format

These are suggestions to improve the Coolreader app. Thanks for your great job

Very happy with CR.
There is one problem, it displays epub and fb2 unicode(Korean for my case) perfectly.
However, I cannot see unicode characters in the dictionary. (I installed En-Ko dictionary).
I think there must be some set up in dict.css to enable unicode fonts.
FYI, I installed modified Liberation Sans font in /system/fonts directory which includes Korean fonts and PB recognize it as a system font.

Taking Notes and able to read PRC/MOBI format is good!

TTS is nice to have, but not really important.

Keep the good job pkbo!

Mobi/Prc support has been in place for a while.
All you need to do it edit the extensions.cfg file.
There are some minor rendering glitches and TOCs aren't always recognized, but fbreader is much the same.

I did that already. I double check extension file and it was in there, but when I opened, there is a message that is corrupt or protected

I also found out that the notes are stored in a folder when you connect the PB902 to a computer. Keep going!!

And what does fbreader say to the same file?

pkbo has done it again: version 0.0.5 can now be donwloaded:
Pro models
301 and 360
Changelog here
Thanks pkbo!

pkbo · 06-12-2011, 09:34 AM

I've adopted original CR notes implementation for PB. I don't know if it is usable or not. If you have some suggestion on how it should be done I will be glad to hear it.

As of current implementation you may select mode of operation (move selection, grow, shrink) by joystick (left|right) and perform operation by joystick (up and down). Selection saved when pressed OK, you make cancel note taking by key back or long OK. Notes saved in the internal memory in the cr3_notes directory.

Can you PM me link to such file. I don't know if I will fix it but at least I will check why it can't be open.

I hope this message should help.

Thanks pkbo, I edited the cr3skin.xml and move Liberation Sans (default font I modified) infront of Arial Unicode MS and DejaVu Sans and it displays the Korean characters.

But I found there is one problem in your new version (0.0.5).

When I push OK button, the pop-up configuration menu of Coolreader is in Russian regardless of device language setting.
