Aura Any ways to display page numbers directly on the sleep screensaver?

Johncarpe · 02-06-2016, 08:06 AM

Hello,

I recently began to use the full screen mode on my Kobo Aura (no footers and headers), which is really great. But by doing so I have only access to the percentage read both on the screensaver info box and when I touch the middle of my screen to trigger the info/time/settings menu... Which bothers me a little since I don't know how "big" the book I'm reading is...
I wanted to know if there was a way to display "pg 25 ouf of 500" on the screensaver info box? (or at least when it alternates with the time after touching the middle of my screen)

Thanks

Are you reading epub or kepub? Page numbers appear if you leave the table of contents <-> menu open but you have to be very careful not to scroll in the book by accident.

Thanks for the tip, it was so obvious it didn't cross my mind

(I only read epubs so I have the total number of pages displayed)

And of course in the reading settings, on page 2, there is Display progress as: Page Number / Percent read / Time remaining, but I'm guessing you already knew about that one?
