Helen -I turn those things off out of habit, I must be more careful
I like space bar to for paging too, my pdf reader does it, as do my image viewers. I want as few readers as possible - I'll probably convert most of my word processing & pdfs to MOBI and archive the originals.
kovid - my viewer doesn't have "page turn animations",
it does have "page flip duration", I set that to 0 (disabled) - voila vertical scrolling
Please don't take my queries as criticisms, I think Calibre is great. I'm mainly using Calibre to catalogue my documents library, I'm thinking of using it to catalogue my picture and music libraries - its the first program of its kind that makes sense to me.
This forum is good too, I get sensible answers to my silly questions -in other forums its the reverse.
Cheers BR (looking forward to having an Escape exit from the reader)
