Over the last few days, there seems to be sufficient interest as expressed in this forum for BookMaster to add a convenient feature to control reading screen brightness with a vertical swipe gesture. Thus, I'd like to outline this planned feature with a little bit more details, in order to solicit more feedback.
BookMaster CE has three reader views:
(a) Classic Book View: a leather-bound book with realistic page-curl animation
(b) Modern Book View: an unbound book with realistic page-slide animation
(c) Modern Scroll View: a vertical scroll with top and bottom rollers
The planned feature will be available for (a) Classic Book View and (b) Modern Book View, but
not for (c) Modern Scroll View, as the vertical swipe gesture is already used to indicate vertical scrolling.
Moreover, BookMaster SE has an addition view for PDF, where the vertical swipe gesture is already used for other purposes.
The vertical swipe gesture should be a single-finger swipe. A two-finger swipe may be easily misrecognized as a pinch-and-spread, a convenient gesture for changing to a new font size for all 3 EPUB views.
Of course, this proposed feature can be turned off by the user, if she does not like it, for whatever reasons.
