Improvements/bugs/features

Hi!

After downloading and using KOReader, it was immediately a tenfold improvement to viewing PDF files compared to Nickel, I appreciate all the hard work that has gone into the project on Github!
That being said, software is almost never finished, in my free time I will be contributing to KOReader, if you can think of any improvements, bugs or any features you would like to see, please let me know and I will try my absolute best!

Specially, the "enhancement", "bug" and "help wanted" labels. Have fun and welcome.

Hi

Can somebody post here the link to report bugs? I think it changed in the last months.

I wanted to report the following bug: when proofreading on a PDF (but I correct later on ePub), I highlight whatever happens to look wrong. The highlighted text is stored with the bookmarks.

If I highlight some words (say a short sentence) it happens quite frequently that some words are glued together in the bookmarks folder. Though it's still readable, it unables me to search the exact words.

Same as always?

Thank you Frenzie.

Bug report sent #5521

Marinolino · 10-23-2019, 04:14 AM

I'd like to see a "zoom out/in" function like in KPV (ex-Koreader for non-touch devices) or "pan the active view" function so that we can move the edge of the text a few milimeters up/down/left/right when needed.

As an aside, there is some limited zooming in page flipping mode.

Could you please describe how it worked in KPV?

In KPV (Kindle DX) I can zoom out/in using ALT + <> (prev/next page) buttons, by predefined zoom step e.g. 16 %. (using SHIFT + <> buttons for zoom step decrease/increase)

I can pan the active view using joypad stick (moving it up/down/left/right), also by predifined panning step e.g. 60 pixels.

SHIFT + left/right would decrease/increase predifined x panning step.

SHIFT + up/down would decrease/increase y panning step.

I opened an issue for it, so that anyone who's interested can more easily find it: https://github.com/koreader/koreader/issues/5524
