One idea: It would be the last step to perfection if you offered this feature also while reading the book. So e.g. I am reading at page five => double click on the right high corner (bookmark) => click on the corner => a windows opens => I choose to make a note 'by keyboard'
Could you please extend that note-2-txt also at this point 'while reading'. That would be great!!!!

2. Topic 'calendar'
Sometimes I am on vacation and I would like to have a new Event-'Type' where I could do this: Add 1 new event and say:
Vacation from day 25 of June to 1 of August. Something like that. A From-To-Date Type Event with 1 entry/event.
Would it be possible to achive?

Greetings to all!

Hi there,

1. I will experiment and see if I can get it to work.
2. No, sorry. This would require significant alterations to the event popup and the current calendar data file format.

Sincerely,
Ben.

I just installed on my 950. There is no option to scale the standby image, see attached.

That's right, no new features for 2.0.x. (otherwise beta will never end). (there is a translation glitch though)

Scaling was a standard feature in 2.0.14beta and your changes log included:

2.0.16 release candidate 2 (2011.11.26)

ALL: StandbyImage: Fix for scaling bug in Sony code

I guess I interpreted this change wrong.

Thanks for the info

dwanthny: the scaling bug was what caused parts of the image to be cut off. That has been fixed for v2.0.x. The scaling option (allowing you to choose between keeping aspect ratio and stretch to screen) has been added for v2.1.

Kartu and Quisvir, There are a lot modifications between the files boostrap.js and common 350, 650, 950.js on the default repository and v 2.0, what is the correct file to be used to create a build?

thanks

[quisvir]

Each belongs to its own repository. So if you want to make a custom v2.0 build (which is nearly identical to the 2.0.16 RC2 setup file), you use the v2-0 repository. If you want to make a custom v2.1 build, you use the default repository. You shouldn't mix files from two different dipositories, as that can cause conflicts.

Hi everyone,

I worked out how to save the data from bookmark notes and handwritings. (Internally, these are known as Comments and Scribbles, by the way!) I have pushed the changes to the repository. Let me know if things don't work as expected!

Sincerely,
Ben.

Thank you!

Works as expected on my unit (350).
I suspect that steman wishes to be able to make notes without selecting text - a kind of dual-tasking: making a note in an overlay-box without closing the book. But your solution is very usable though.

I would have one wish to for christmas

When higlighting text in a book and add a note selected text should be automatically copied into the note. But I expect the solution to be rather sophisticated.

Kartu or rest (Quisvir, Ben or Mark), i've made a custom installer (from default repository) due the lang.ods is uncompleted at the moment on spanish, I've modified this file with openoffice and then i've created an installer but the result is shown on the pictures, all words of prs plus aren't translated. What could be the reason?

Thanks

Most probably a blank line in lang.ods
Check the resulting <lang.js> for lines like

,
{ },

Hello all!

Feeback: Great Bookmark Notes 2 TEXT!!! Thank you - It works great for me.

Wish 1: Could you implement having the calendar shown not only after SHUTDOWN but also after STANDBY?

Wish 2: 2 new icons in the calender: a) some sort of money symbol b) some sort of shopping symbol (a shopping trolley e.g.)?

I thought it is Chrismas time, so wishes are allowed
Best regards!!

Calendar Event Question: If I set an event e.g. birthday, on my PRS+ 600 v2.0.15, should there be some sort of indication on the day of the event? Am I expecting too much or just not setting up correctly?

Mark the problem is file lang.ods, but i don't know how to create it to works fine, because if i create it with openoffice the reader doesn't show the titles and with google.es docs the build is impossible to make it.

Thanks
