Number of Titles on "My Books" page
There are normally 5 titles shown on the "My Books page (screen). This is so on the Clara and the Aura one. Somehow, on my wife's Clara, this has been reduced to just 3 titles in larger text. I cannot find any way to return this to the original 5 titles. OS is the recent 15676 build.

Any ideas?

Brilliant Semwize. I never thought to look there.
Thank you.

My Forma is not on large print mode, but only shows 3 titles on each tile, including My Books. No issue for me though.

I think you are talking about the home page, but the OP is talking about when you go in to My Books and get a list of books. The home page's My Books only ever has 3 books all bunched up, but when you tap on that, the page that opens should have 5 books listed, if large print mode isn't enabled.

Ah I see, thanks. Yes that's right I have 5 titles a page in the list view in My Books.

From memory you can. Set the large print mode on. Then change the value on the config file. It should be a scale value and setting it to 0.8 should work. Though, it has been a while since I tried this.

Thanks for the idea for 80% largeprint.
Tried it. Didn't work. Or at least, it didn't put more titles on the list screen.

I hadn't thought of editing the config file. I guess I was thnking a patch to change the slider.

I wasn't suggesting you would get more books per page in the lists. But, it should change the font size to much smaller and that might be desirable. I just checked it on my Aura ONE. It does work to change the font size to much smaller, but, I had to restart the device to pick it up.

Playing with it more, it does make the UI text smaller. It makes the book list text smaller after a reboot. I guess I get to see more of the title that way, but it leaves a lot of unused white space in the book list rather than adding another line.

Oh well, there's still cover view mode.

This is stated in css. It has 'medium' and 'large'. The 'small' option is missing.
