Elipsa Stylus highlight "secret" mode

nutustru · 03-16-2022, 06:19 AM

Hi all,

In the PDF, as you know, you have to keep pressing the first button to highlight something.

This morning, just by chance, no idea how, somehow I have enabled a kind of hidden / unknown highlight mode. By default, it automatically had the highlight on. This means I was able to highlight whatever I wanted without always pressing the annoying 1st button.

I then tried somehow to switch to the "normal" mode, and I did it. I think I pressed both buttons or one of them for a certain number of seconds.

No clue how I was able to switch the default mode, but if any of you knows it, please share it here!

PS by the way, I am deeply convinced that with this HW, at kobo, they could make a much better SW.. there is so much potential in there and they are not exploiting it

Yes, the software seems unfinished.
