Yes. Providing Windowed and Full-Screen mode was complicated, and actually Windowed mode doesn't add much value (particularly as you can now put a battery and clock indicator onto the bottom left of the page).

That was a feature in v. 1 that I really liked. I cannot stand clunky justification on a small screen, so I had to reconvert the file in Calibre to get rid of the justification. I also had to remove the book from the Freda library and add the new conversion back in, before Freda displayed it unjustified. ("Forgetting" the book didn't do it.)

I hadn't realised that my users might want to force anything other than 'justified' layout. I will change that option in v2, so you can choose between 'force left align/force right align/force justified/don't force anything (use the book layout).

'Back' should undo the last 'go to' operation (i.e. moving the slider in the shortcuts screen, clicking a link or using the table of contents). I'll have a play with it and see if I can reproduce the error.

Yes it is by design. When scanning a folder for books to include in the library, I do not open and examine the book metadata (because it would take too long to do). Conversely, when downloading OPDS catalogs into the library, I
do pick up metadata, because it can be done without slowing things down).
Thanks for using Freda,
