And when I started to use Kobo, I wanted an option to toggle/loop the three choices on the footer quickly so I don't have to activate the menu, click the Settings icon and then set it in the Settings, exit the reading, and open the book again to see the result on the footer. I know a lot of tricks from all kinds of online sources of how to use Kobo, such as using Calibre with Kobo, kobopatch, some hidden preferences in "Kobo eReader.conf", etc., but never seen any person mentioned this trick:
> Long press the reading process on the footer for about 2 seconds, it will loop the available choices(Page number->Precent read->Time remaining). This is just what I wanted.
I accidentally long pressed the footer just now and found this feature that is never mentioned anywhere. This is just so exciting.
Do you all know this trick? Are there any other tricks of Kobo that people likely don't know?

Thank you!!- An accidental long press probably explains how my "page __ of ___" suddenly became "____% read" a few days ago. I didn't know how it had happened, and I went through the settings menu to change it back. Glad to know the quicker way to change it!
