Touch .kepub.epub

[jgoguen]

I wonder if that's a bug in the kepub renderer or if it's by design? I had thought that CSS is the preferred way to do all ePub styling and formatting, but if some of it is being ignored...

I wonder if there's some really specific selectors in the CSS that the koboSpan tags are breaking? When you added text-align:center did you add that in the CSS or on the tag itself?

[Terisa de morgan]

In the css, never at the tag.

I just tried myself to user text-align: center on paragraphs in kepub.epub. It works without problem. The kobo span tags do not break anything, it seems.

Terisa de morgan, I think in your user settings, "Justification" is not set to "OFF".

[Terisa de morgan]

tshering, you are right I didn't remember this setting because it does nothing when you're reading a ePub book.

[davidfor]

Yes it does. But only if the text alignment is not set in the styles.

[Terisa de morgan]

So, that's the reason it did nothing. After my Sony (which always used left-aligned if not set), I always set my text alignment in the styles. So, the same rule doesn't apply to kepub. Anyway, thank you very much to all of you for helping my to fix my novice mistake.

Terisa de morgan,
it was fun for me. It gave me another opportunity to give some hypotheses that turned out to be wrong.

Hi jgoguen
Using your plugin - really great many thank.
Only problem was when I upgraded to latest calibre 64bit
Version: 0.9.19 IT removed plugin and when I tried to load it got this error:
calibre, version 0.9.19
ERROR: Unhandled exception: <b>ImportError</b>:cannot import name KOBOTOUCHEXTENDED
Traceback (most recent call last):

ImportError: cannot import name KOBOTOUCHEXTENDED
Went back to .18 no problems.
Any comment?
Thanks Michael

Please submit a bug report on Github? I haven't gotten home from work yet and I have a lot of things I have to do tonight; my memory sometimes isn't so hot If it also blows up for me I'll of course remember, but a Github bug report is the best reminder since my browser always loads Github.

EDIT:
So, on the way home I was doing some poking around and it looks like in 0.9.19 the calibre.ebooks.epub.fix package was removed. I depend on the Container class within that package, so I'll need to spend some time to figure out the best way to proceed. Either to copy the Container from 0.9.18 and modify it for my own local copy, use another Container if that class was just moved somewhere, or something more radical. Unfortunately this won't be a quick fix, so definitely no solution tonight, but if things go well by the end of the weekend maybe. Still put in a Github bug report though please

Completed report 10 on Github as you requested.
Glad it wasn't my error but sorry it's caused you extra work.
Many thanks
Michael

I was wondering if that was the case. I had the same problem for a hacked version of Modify ePub I have. You probably have the solution by now, but...

You need definitions for InvalidEpub and ParseError. Get the latest Modify ePub. I assume that is where you got your original container.py from. The appropriate definitions are at the top of container.py.

Hey, not your fault I didn't keep up on what was happening

I just imported what was already in use, added some methods I found useful, and overrode write(). I'm perfectly happy to poach what kiwidude has already done if it's already solved there

I just pushed up a new version that copies and modifies the old Container class from calibre 0.9.18. I noticed that I couldn't just update from calibre for whatever reason; I had to shut down calibre, go to the plugins directory (inside the configuration directory; if you don't know where this is you can open calibre's preferences, choose Miscellaneous, and click the "Open calibre configuration directory" button before you close calibre) and replace the ZIP file with one built according to the README directions.

i also have the same problem cant install the pluing on calibre 0.9.19
