Sorry for too many words. Just trying to get bearings. So type="titlepage" is used just internally... Great information; this is why it cannot be seen anywhere. Still one discrepancy: you repeatedly say that type="cover" is used to point to cover image. But what Calibre evidently do, is pointing type="cover" to html... Anyway, back to the topic of this thread.
Is there possibility, some time in the future, Calibre will treat guide item (or lets say "guide reference") of type cover, when building "Go to..." menu, in the same way as all other types of references? So it will be placed in menu into its natural position, and be displayed under name defined by its "title" attribute?
For guide code:
<reference type="cover" href="cover.xhtml" title="My cover" />
<reference type="toc" href="toc.xhtml" title="My toc" />
<reference type="colophon" href="imprint.xhtml" title="My colophon" />
current menu appearance is:
Quote:
My toc
My colophon
Title page //or mayby Cover page...
|
(Ok, "Cover page" IMO is better name for cover page than "Title page". But author of epub file will maybe have completelly different idea, and in any case string "Cover page" still cannot be localized...).
So is there possibility menu will appear as:
Quote:
My cover
My toc
My colophon
|
?
It would be enough just for cases reference type="cover" is pointing to html... (Which actually mean "anytime". Cause when such reference is pointing to image, menu item is not created at all. As just tested.)
Of course, I take into account that "guide" epub feature is not widely used. And so demand for such sort of fixes is small... But, on the other hand, Calibre is defacto standard maker. And features of epub standard will logically not to be used, unless consistently implemented, at least somewhere...
