Selecting OK will give you a listing of the Default settings. Poking the UPPERCASE_NAMES will give you a message window and keyboard to make changes. But if you open the defaults.lua file in "Notepad++", there are many green comments that help explain the settings. I much prefer to make any changes that way.

The progress bar works the way you tried and poking the right end of the mini-bar toggles through the things you checked, when "Show all at once" is not checked.

There are a few factors that can effect justification, some of them can be adjusted in the menus. For some you may have to turn Embedded Styles off. The "Hyphenation" settings can also have an effect, as I understand it.

I am planning some improvement to the Github koreader WiKi, but haven't found a format/structure that might be better.

There is no file defaults.lua. I looked in the koreader folder, the Android folder, and even looked in the data/data folder in the root directory. I found file settings.reader.lua, but that only has the options you can find in the menu. I went to the file manager to get to advanced options - very strange place to put options that work when reading. I found a justification setting set to 3. I figured I would just change it and see what happens and saw no difference. And now I can't change it to any other number because no numbers show on the keyboard anymore! It seems that after you edit something the keyboard changes for that setting. I still see numbers in the keyboard for other settings that haven't been edited.

The progress bar only shows what you want if you check "Show all at once". You even need to check "Show all at once" to get it to show the one and only choice you make.

How is the epub.css option under set render style supposed to work? I tap it and nothing happens.

It's not the format of the wiki that is the problem, it's the lack of information.
