Here is another beta with two new functions:
- Remove Annotation files
This is to remove the annotations files created when reading ePubs on the main memory. This is useful because of the bug when reopening epubs and the annotations list gets messed up. Also, the device doesn't delete the files, so if you send a book again, it can reopen with the old annotations. Of course, that can be handy.
There are several options for which files to remove. Personally, I just remove them all.
- Set Related Books
He details screen for books has a tab for "Related books". For books from Kobo, this is populated with books that Kobo think are related. This can be books in the same series, by the same author, genre or something else. For sideloaded books, the tab is there, but it is empty.
This function sets the related books for sideloaded books. They can be set to either series or authors. When the function is selected, it displays a dialog with these options. Select which is desired and press "Get list". This displays the list of series or authors with a count of books. The list can be edited. When "OK" is pressed, all books in author or series in the list have all the other books added as a related book entry.
The dialog also has a "Delete All" button. Pressing this will remove all the related book entries for all sideloaded books.
This is an alternative to creating a shelf for the series. But, I'm not sure how useful it is. Getting to the related books takes a bit and it only shows a small cover image.
I also did some work on the help. It still needs a lot of work, but it is better than it was. I also created an ePub from it, but mainly because I was using the calibre editor to write it.
As usual, I am interested in any reports on the new or existing function. Bugs with details of what went wrong will help me fix it. And any suggestions for improvements are welcome. But, I don't promise to implement them.
