DNSB, Jellby: The errors you describe are long standing errors with annotations. I had hoped that they would get fixed with the rebuild of the annotations list. Or the new RMSDK.

The following are the errors I have been reporting to Kobo on the beta list for a very long time:
  • Order in the annotations list is wacky. It isn't in creation order or order within the book or alphabetical order. Also, the order changes when you delete a bookmark or annotation.
    • This is for the old annotations list. But location order is still wrong for reopened epubs.
  • Annotations/Bookmarks in the list are not shown under the correct chapter title.
    • Instead of the chapter they are in, they are under the last chapter selected using the TOC or navigation bar.
  • Bookmarks percentage into chapter is always zero after closing and reopening a book.
    • If you set a bookmark, and display the annotations list, the percentage into chapter shows a reasonable looking number.
    • Close the book and reopen it and then go to the annotations list and the percentage is always zero.
    • These problems do not happen for books on the SD card. They also don't happen if the annotations file created by ADE is removed before opening the book. So, it appears to be related to reading this file.

The last is caused by reading the Adobe annotations file when the book is reopened. For some reason I have missed that they also get moved to being shown in the list as in the chapter the book reopens to. This does not happen if the annotations file isn't there. I think this also makes the location sorting worse.
