New beta published 8.99.2 with the following changes:
* Make bookshelf spine height configurable
* Make bookshelf spine text direction configurable
* Allow adding a second line to bookshelf spine via template
* Fix bug in page counting causing incorrect page counts for italic tags
* Add a log of page counting failures, accessible from Preference->Look & feel->Bookshelf
* Turn off GPU acceleration in Qt WebEngine to hopefully fix issues with older windows systems
* Change highlighting of current book in bookshelf to gray when it isnt selected
* Various misc minor bug fixes
I believe this addresses almost all feedback received on the initial beta so
far.
The remaining questions are:
1) Should the default for the cover animation be shift or above?
2) Should the default cover thumbnail on spine be cropped or full
3) Should the minimum spine width be increased when there are two lines on
the spine? This has the downside of reducing width variation between books
and not indicating that a book is very thin. Increasing both minimum and
maximum is another option, however this has the downside of invalidating the
thumbnail cache since it depends on maximum spine width and the two lines
setting is per library not global.
Thanks to everyone for all the testing/bug reports. Phew
