AlReader - Full program help
Backlight intensity: Slide finger on left or right site up/down
Menu:
1) Slide Finger on the upper side of the screen from left to right or vice versa.
or
2) Tap in the middle of the screen
Number of profiles:
You will find it under:
Settings - Master ? (first option from the top) - number of profiles (number four is inverted screen)
If you don't find it, you have to set:
Settings - View settings - All features and settings
don't forget
Settings - Master - start with fullscreen
Settings - Master - dictionary
Settings -finetuning - Hardware - E-Ink refresh
Settings -finetuning - Fonts - Dev_Kern_Text
Settings -finetuning - Fonts - Linear_Text
Use the 10 Tapzones, if you want to use dictionary support, assign the tapzone only to shortclick and leave longclick for dictionary selection.
Have a look at the finger gestures, those could be useful too (I use it to switch between profile, change line-distance, letter distance ...) |
Well, I finally figured it out. It's written differently on my app than how you described. In order to get to the four profiles, I have to go to Options/Settings Complexity and choose "Professional". Then all the other options you describe appear. I can then choose "four profiles" from the main menu under Options.
To get to the inverted screen, I tap in the center of the screen when reading, and a menu bar appears at the top. choose the icon that's half white and half black (that's the Next Profile icon) and click it until I get to the fourth profile (the inverted screen).
It does work, but the wording is very different from what you describe.
The inverted screen does reduce the glare considerably. Unfortunately, the settings in AlReader can't make the backlight any dimmer than the first setting that the firmware provides, but this will help. Thanks for the input.
I'll use this as needed, but for other apps I'll just turn off the backlight.
Besides the backlight issue, AlReader seems very customizable. When I have a bit more time, I'll experiment with the settings a bit.
Thanks again.
