Change page numbers

[Flaviocc]

Thank you.

I have books from google play store, with no images and I will sideload to see if the problem happens.

I don't have nothing downloaded from Kobo store.

Thank you again.

@davidfor,

If you have time, can you test the attached book? It's just text and downloaded for free from gutemberg.org

I have the same behavior with that book (no images).

zip file with epub inside.

I sent to Kobo via Calibre using the extended driver.

Tks.

**UPDATE**

After the new firmware launched yesterday I did some tests and:

After the update and BEFORE apply the patch, I tested with kepub and the page number works how it should - 1 screen = 1 page number and after the patches I have the same behavior - 2 screens to change the page number.

So, I don't know what patch is triggering this issue.

I'll share my patches and if anyone have any clue on what patch can cause the problem, I appreciate the help.

It's possibly due to "Reduce new header/footer height", as it changes the size of the content area for books. Does it work if you disable it?

How about the font scale (not font size) and custom left/right margins patches?

Nope...both disabled and same behavior. Try right now the margins.

EDIT:

Reduce new header/footer height - no
left/right margins patches - no

did no work too

The font scale command is:

Set font scale factor ?

@geek1011,

you found the problem!

it's the font scale factor patch.

My settings now after all:

Reduce new header/footer height - yes
left/right margins patches - yes
Font scale factor - no

Now the 1 screen = 1 page works.

If the font scale factor=yes will break the 1 screen = 1 page thing.

OK, there must be another place which uses the scale factor. I'll take a look at this later and see if I can find it.

Thank you for your help @geek1011.

Unfortunately, it isn't as simple as that.

I hadn't noticed it on my Libra H2O when reading some purchased kepubs, but, then I realised that I had the book progress set to percent read I have been using page numbers for the chapter, percent for the book and could see the full book page when the progress slider is displayed. The previous testing was done on other devices that I did have the page number in both places.

So, last night I changed to page at the bottom and checked. What I found was that book page numbers change at about 80% of the rate of the chapter rate. Every few pages, the book page number wouldn't go up. The chapter page number changed every time I turned the page.

I don't have any patches installed. It doesn't seem to be a font size, as I tried a couple and it happened for all. The rate of mismatch might be different, but, I haven't tested enough to be sure.

Some notes:

- Reduce new header/footer height - yes
- left/right margins patches - yes
- Font scale factor - no

--->The 1 screen = 1 page works.
--->The total page number with my font, space line and margins settings is 700 (just an example)


- Reduce new header/footer height - yes
- left/right margins patches - yes
- Font scale factor - yes

--->The 1 screen = 1 page did not work.
--->The behavior is 2 screens = 1 page number.
--->The total page number with the same font, space line and margins settings is 400 (just an example). That make sense.

Both cases the chapter page number settings works ok. But I don't use this setting.

Device is Aura One.
