Does the book need to have 'Amazon Advanced Typography' (or whatever it's called) enabled for landscape mode to be an option?
I have tried with a couple of different books - including the Kindle Users Manual, but it appears to be gone.
Another thing I find lacking is on the 'home screen'. In the 'list mode', there used to be an indication of the length of each book, in a vaguely logarithmic bar chart. I haven't managed to enable that on the Oasis. Is that a problem in my understanding, or a missing feature of the Oasis? |
Landscape mode is actually on the "PAGE" in Display Settings. To get to it, while in a book, tap the top of the screen and touch the "Aa" setting. It's the second tab in that pop-up menu.
