Thanks, I knew the Aura had a per-chapter option but I didn't realise the page count options were different. I'll have to look into how to change these options for the Aura.

Thanks to You.
Are you able to add "Never" to "Custom page refresh options"? |

Does anyone know what value is recorded for numPartialUpdatePageTurns in the Kobo eReader.conf file when the "Chapter" refresh option is selected on the Aura?

`Custom page refresh options (Aura only)`
Here is a custom page refresh options patch that I think will work on the Aura, but as I don't have an Aura, someone else will have to be the first to test it.
It should be safe, even if it doesn't work properly I think the worst that could happen is that the device crashes when you try to select an option from the menu and you'd need to reboot and re-apply the patches with this one disabled. Firmware 3.18.0; paste into libnickel.so.1.0.0.patch Spoiler:

It works perfectly on my Aura 6", but only with fullScreenReading=false (it's a bug of 3.18 firmware), thanks.
but IMHO It makes no sense replace 5 with 8 and 10 with 16. :-þ Last edited by mortimer7; 11-24-2015 at 08:43 AM. |

How should i edit the patch? maybe adding this? Code:
replace_string = B8F850, `5 pages`, `32 pages` replace_string = B8F858, `10 pages`, `99 pages` |

The values can go higher than 99 if you wish, the limit that can be set with the patch is 255. I have tested 128 on my Glo with firmware 3.18.0 and it works correctly. Firmware 3.18.0; paste into libnickel.so.1.0.0.patch Spoiler:

`Fix three KePub fullScreenReading bugs`
This is a new patch to replace the three seperate patches (`KePub zero body margin/padding`, `Fix kepub side bearing font cut-off bug`, `Disable KePub FullSceenReading block img style`) for the three problems that affect KePubs in full-screen reading mode. (See this post)
I will be including this patch instead of the other three patches in future versions, and I intend to have it enabled by default, so I'm posting it here in case anyone wants to test it out. It has the advantage that is is much simpler, and has no effect on normal reading mode at all. Multi-version patch 3.3.0 - 3.18.0+, paste into libnickel.so.1.0.0.patch. Spoiler:

Library slider
Maybe I'm missing it, but a slider in the library would be great. Too often when I swipe to get to the next page I open a book...

![]() For me it is always difficult to remember what patch does this or don't and what value must be there, or at least I forget some. I hope someone will ever develope a GUI for it, but that would be a wet dream come true.. well at least I managed to patch the latest versions. I am ever gratefull for your work,without it I doubt that I still had my 3 Kobo's. ![]() |

I would probably be willing to come up with some sort of GUI, if Geoff would be willing to standardise on a way of being able to determine mutually exclusive options, and determine which help text belongs with which patch.
EDIT: Basically, the idea would be to read the patch file(s) and dynamically create a GUI based on the contents of said file(s). That way a new GUI version would not need to be created for every new patch release. It probably won't be pretty to look at though ![]() Last edited by sherman; 12-08-2015 at 09:08 PM. |
