Using Calibre as a reader - Page 2

you mean the OK and Cancel buttons?

No they already have underlines and access to them via the alt + underlined letter. I mean the fetch metadata from the server button and the fetch cover image from the server button. - I find when updating the information I get stuck and have to use the mouse. The real reason i ask is I want to use you program as a method of allowing disabled users to access the program using other methods such as a button or switch.

I also notice that even tho you can use the right click keyboard button you cannot actually use the letter as a method of accessing the option you have to use the arrow keys.

But I still think your program rocks

As for the switch I would love to be able to get that to work on the 505 but at the moment with the software being locked down its just beyond me

Oops, I'll make those two buttons accessible via Alt+key in the next release

are there any instructions as to how to use 'reference mode'?

all that appears to happen is . . . . . nothing

Click the reference mode button, then move your mouse over the paragraph you want the number for.

So, how do you rotate the page view? I am trying to use Calibre 0.6.7 on my eeePC to read epub format. I can't find any menu item to flip the view 1/4 turn anticlockwise.
