Calibre UI isuses 2.32.1
Firstly, the OSX version is generally an unpolished piece of crap which looks like windows garbage. It has crap like "do not leave in system tray" or whatever in the preferences. The interface in general is just cluttered with crappy trackpad support.
So I want to view the bloody book like it's going to be seen in my kindle. Obviously, the app knows what my device is, I selected it at the beginning. So why is it adjusting the formatting when I adjust the viewer window? Why is the viewer window even adjustable!? It should just be the same size as the device or relative to it. Whoever did the interface is a joke. Also, if calibre zips html files. Why doesn't it have some kind of support to open it in the viewer? I don't know what settings I have to click on and I don't care to dig in it. I should just double click and it should open. But it doesn't. So I try converting the html to mobi and then the stupid viewer doesn't even view it properly like it's going to be seen in the device. Or maybe it does and it can't properly format the text to fit the screen?? Who knows. The text goes off the page to the right. Really? If a user can't figure out something or is uncomfortable within 30 seconds, the app sucks. App development 101. This is why Steven Jobs was the only one who knew what they were talking about.
