Is it possible to quickly disable/enable touchscreen (with a gesture, for example) or quickly disable/enable highlighting?
I use my Pocketbook inkpad 3 to read both fiction and non-fiction. My problem is that while I like to highlight non fiction books, I read fiction in bed, and I never highlight it.
So basically I have two scenarios:
1. Highlight enabled
2. touch disabled, no highlights (so that I can hold the reader with a thumb resting on the screen, without triggering highlights or page change)
I switch between the two frequently (I usually read a fiction and a non fiction book at the same time) and going into the menu and disabling/enabling highlighting every time I switch is annoying.
At the moment I'm using the pocketbook own reader to read in bed because the Inkpad 3 default reader can disable the touchscreen with a double click of one of the buttons (you change page only by buttons then).
I can imagine the following solutions:
- One way would be assigning a long press toggle (do nothing/highlight) but at the moment I only see the option to cycle highlight action
- Another would be to implement touchscreen disabling using a button, this would be optimal, because would allow carefree handling of the reader in bed, without fear of accidentally turning pages, which is important, when reading to relax.
- Another could be disable/enable touchscreen inputs with a gesture.
Is there anything I'm missing to solve my problem using the current version?
