How does one toggle the Auto Scroll?

jer.b · 10-23-2021, 06:28 PM

I see speed references in the preferences to keyboard short cuts but not how to use it.

Tap Esc: Now you see the Menu. Auto scroll is next to Print. Same place to turn it OFF

How about a Help button linked to the proper Manual section?

Thank You, found it. What I dont see which would help is my mouse pointer. When I launch any book in the reader the mouse goes Bye Bye. The only way I can see any action is when the pointer goes over an icon, it gets highlighted momentarily. Its not the mouse. Ive tried 2 different kinds, usb and bluetooth.

I'm using an up to date windows 10 64 bit and the 64 bit calibre.

Read the Keyboard settings (open the shortcut setting) to see the keystrokes. (those are for speed). Other settings are in Preferences:scrolling

And my mouse auto-hides, but appears if I move it

You mean in the viewer controls?

I don't know what he meant. The problem seems to be related to Full Screen Mode. I have a cursor and pointer otherwise. I leave my cursor active(two types of hide cursor, at the Misc screen left unchecked). The weird part is that when in FS mode and the pointer rolls over an ICON, the ICON changes color, but the pointer/cursor remains invisible. In any case, Thanks to all. I fixed my problem by staying out of FS mode.

Yes! When using the Viewer, send them direct to the Viewer Help rather than making us switch back to Calibre, clicking Help, then needing to drill down to Viewer.
(The Editor already does this)

Sure, https://github.com/kovidgoyal/calibr...db0f9ec8188bf8

You have sneaked in some great features over time (that I missed

) until another MR member said something.
"It does that!"

This will make it easier
