I'm interested in seeing real page numbers – that is, the number of times I need to flip the page/screen on my current reading device until I get to the end of the book. That is already how Marvin treats pages in chapters. That is how printed books work. What could be more reasonable to request? Is that too much to ask for? 
If this reasonable request cannot be obliged, then at least, please, let us disable the display of those fake "page" numbers in Marvin 3. It really makes my blood boil whenever I see them, because they are just misleading. Currently, you can't disable the display of those fake "pages" without also disabling the display of other data I consider crucial. So, the feature that Kris promised us – the ability to customize the structure of our headers and footers via templates with placeholders – can't be introduced soon enough. |
Sorry, but the number of screens is not a real page number. In fact, it's less real then ADE style page numbers. Page numbers should NOT change if you change any settings.
