Calibre and exiting Full Screen mode on a tablet

John41 · 04-28-2014, 09:31 AM

I am new to ebooks and ebook readers. At present, I'm using my ASUS Transformer T100 as an Ebook reader, and hunting around for the most user friendly reader software to use on it - does anyone have any suggestions ?
I have tried Calibre, and found it useful. I have experienced a problem when using my Transformer as a tablet. When reading a book, and switching to full screen mode, a message appears advising to press the ESC key if you wish to exit full screen, or to right click to call up the menu. I've tried everything, whilst in full screen mode, but haven't been able to find anyway to exit full screen, whilst using the tablet. Help !

Tap with one finger and hold it down, that will popup the right click menu, which you can then use to exit fullscreen.
