If you really need to read in landscape mode, you can achieve something like that by converting your files into kepub format and setting Code:
html {-epub-writing-mode: vertical-rl} Cf. this post and that and the ones following it. Edit: In older FWs, it was possible to make kepubs read an external css file. You can find more information about that by searching this forum. Edit 2: The simplest way however is to use one of the alternative readers (search for KOReader, and Coolreader from the PBChess package), if you do not insist of using nickel.

It is possible that the RMSDK has code for a landscape mode that Kobo haven't enabled, like they haven't enabled the fetching of books directly from Adobe's server without going through ADE although there is code for doing this in the RMSDK. But this is just my speculation. If it was true then there might be a possibility of a patch enabling it, but if not then there would be next to no chance of implementing something as complicated as landscape mode from scratch just with a patch. |

Help me please with the correct formatting of "Custom reading footer style".
To keep it simple, could someone send me a correctly commented-uncommenetd section of this patch for Aura? Thank you in advance. |

Thanks, but why didn't you do any changes here?
Code:
# Replacement caption font size value for Touch/Mini: replace_string = 000A, `font-size: 16px;`, `font-size: 16px;` # Replacement caption font size value for Glo/Aura: replace_string = 0054, `font-size: 20px;`, `font-size: 20px;` # Replacement caption font size value for AuraHD/H2O: replace_string = 008C, `font-size: 26px;`, `font-size: 20px;` # Replacement caption font size value for GloHD: replace_string = 00C5, `font-size: 30px;`, `font-size: 30px;` |

I would say, try my test file. You will see that there are some problems (many fonts do not display the punctuation marks and similar correctly, the positions for turning the pages is a little unexpected, etc.). If you then still want to go this way, try to figure out how to modify css settings with Calibre (or edit your epubs manually). If you need more help, ask again in this forum, but please not in this thread, with is dedicated to patching firmware 3.19.5761. Last edited by tshering; 02-25-2016 at 02:08 PM. |
