c. No option to create a toolbar. Would like quick option for text size and ToC since I click on those a lot.
d. Can't keep increasing/decreasing text size with a button. I get 6 options or I got to type something in.

2. Reading
a. Cannot copy text with right client
b. Cannot copy images with right click
c. Cannot view images with right click
d. The header and footer take away from the reading space. Not noticeable at first, but once I did it started really bugging me.
e. Scroll bar is not native
f. Cannot paste location after coping them
g. Estimated time left still isn't updating.

It still honestly feels like you took the reader mode from a major browser and left it as is. It feel unsatisfying compared to the old version. I will try again in 4.2 and keep an old copy around. (Which it seems like I am doing for a lot of software and not just this.)
Wow! You can't deal with a different way of getting there?
Now it is 2 clicks required (1 right, 1 normal)

OTOH I probably copied images from the previous viewer (since I started using Calibre in 2010) about 2 times.
I do use the Editor and I have used the Unpack tool to Bulk copy/process images.
You do know that Calibre is Free and Open Source? Roll your own
