A few initial points:
* Can't choose a comic to read. The list appears and is scroll-able, but I can't select anything.
* The comic info selection DOES work, oddly - selection screen looks the same (minus a menu button), and both scrolling and selecting work.
* Screen size isn't fully used - I guess Komic is currently styled to the older, lower-res screens. Kindle PW is 1024x758 (weird, I know).
* Scrolling is very slow.
* Cover view shows thumbnails, and selecting a thumbnail shows the first page, but nothing else (tapping the page takes me back to cover view). |
These are (half) good news....
As regards the screen size, I hope V2.3 will solve this problem (I already did something but I can't test it).
As regards the comic opening, both the normal way and the cover view share the same problem as, in the end, they use the same procedure.
This is what is done when you choose a comic:
- komic sends a request to an external script
- the external script fetches some information (files name). creates a JS file and sends a signal back to Komic
- Komic opens the reading page using the newly created JS file
The problem could be in this procedure (i.e. the communication service) OR in the onLoad function of the reading page.
Just to be sure, try using some of the external function: try to run the remove script (even with no comics to remove).
It should report a missing comic...
If so, the communication service *should* work fine.
