Not so sure I like that new avatar of yours. Took me two posts to realize it was you. For a second I thought, who is this crazy person posting. Eventually will get used to it. |

twobob, two minor issues with your helper extension:
- Delete dangling colon from ALLOW ScreenSaver - When I use TOGGLE UsbNetworking (well done BTW) I can't see any output from eips 1 38 " USBNETWORKING $DIRECTION CHANGES COMPLETE". I think that niluje's progress strings overwrite it - at least when direction's UP, maybe moving yours to another screen position could help? |

You linked to HUR's support page, did you mean it or should you link to KPDF's support page?

I'm tinkering around with a script for KUAL. It's a single script that works as a toggle. When the script executes, it copies a different menu.json to replace the existing one, changing the menu name.
My question: Is this okay to do? It seems to work fine but I wasn't sure if there might be any problems doing this. The reason I'm being ambiguous about what the script does is that DuckieTigger is working on a similar script and I didn't want to step on any toes. I got the idea from a post of his and am basically doing it for my own edification. |

should be ZERO problem. simple as that I would just point out that a DO-NOT-SUICIDE option is just around the corner.... if you required a menu re-read from a NON-SUICIDED button in the future... that might need some jiggling... nothing I wouldn't be happy to provide of course assuming there is value for everyone in it. edification - extra points for word usage! : ) |

UPDATED the kindlepdfviewer support page to point to https://code.google.com/p/kindlepdfv...downloads/list
And removed the older build I made. so that people can grab the latest builds while Touch support is at an alpha/beta stage. Cheers. Last edited by twobob; 02-19-2013 at 07:12 PM. |

@Jimmy-Jim: Knock yourself out. If you get there faster, go ahead. I have not filed a patent on my new hide-font button (if that is what you are after). I am pretty much tied up during the week - sleep/work/sleep/work/sleep/work. Not enough hours in the day to do much developing / testing - even if it is just a button. As for your changing by copying / editing menu.json: Maybe you can do the switch in your script - check out my lightoggle for instance, on how that might be done with the exact same script. If you need comments in it, I am sure I can work something out.
@twobob: a no-suicide-option would be great, especially for little helpers (we got a button for that) |

Machinations with Knc1 and stepk have taken place over the last few days on this subject. Also updated SORTING options were mooted. I agree it rapidly becoming "needed" over "nice to have" as is the "EXPLODED" or "GROUPED" options for the listings... <-- This is the furthest away. update when I have one. |

I recommend using NiLuJe's port of the Font Hack. It does everything this does plus a lot more:
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=219405 ------------------------------------- I've changed the title of this from Hide Fonts to Font Config. It now includes only one button: Hide Fonts Purpose: To hide the extra fonts that appear on the Aa menu when USE_ALT_FONTS is present. Refer to: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...&postcount=424 When Hide Fonts is executed, the following actions take place:
Once these files are created, the user is free to edit them at will; use a UNIX-friendly editor. The use of the Font Config KUAL button is no longer necessary to hide additional fonts. However, if you do intend to add or remove hidden fonts with KUAL, ensure other font configurations are added to alternate.conf as hidefonts.conf will be overwritten each time the KUAL button is used. ** Tested on the Kindle Touch 5.3.2 and Paperwhite 5.3.3 ** Instructions: Spoiler:
Example alternate.conf: Spoiler:
For more information about fontconfig files, see: http://freedesktop.org/software/font...nfig-user.html Thanks to DuckieTigger and twobob for suggestions and support. Last edited by JimmyR; 01-13-2014 at 01:50 PM. Reason: Update Instructions |
