Going back a page after exiting fullscreen

elvawenn · 10-11-2015, 10:43 AM

I'm currently using Calibre v. 2.40 - though I noticed that this problem has been there since before a few version updates before. After reading with a full screen mode, I would exit (Esc), and when I come back to the screen and press F11 to go into fullscreen mode again, it would go back to the previous page. A page that I'd already read. It's not a serious problem, but an annoying one.

How do I fix this? Thanks in advance to anybody who can help.

You cannot. It is a consequence of the fact that page sizes are different in full screen and not fullscreen, so a fullscreen page does not map exactly to a non-fullscreen page.

Ok, lets say I want text to be remapped every time I go in or out of fullscreen mode so first line will remain first line in or out. Is that doable?

Also other thing is that pressing next page button every time I exit fulscreen mode gives partially desirable result (I stay on the same page instead of going back indefinitely), is it possible to automate such action?
