Feature request

I am using KoReader, now with a Kobo Clara HD, and love it. I do have one request for an enhancement:

When I set the frontlight's warmth to 'Auto', I can set the time at which it reaches the maximum warmth. After that time (23:00) the light starts to get whiter again. What I would really like is to be able to set the time when it reaches maximum warmth, AND set how many hours it will stay at maximum warmth, after which the light will progressively get warmer.

If this could be done, KoReader would be perfect!

Many thanks!

I personally have no use for such a feature (since I tend to adapt warmth to my environment, not the time), but a two point curve does make sense for a time-based approach .

Yeah, at the very least you'd expect the warmth to stay at maximum warmth between 22 and 4 or 5, say. I'd somehow picked up the impression that it was a curve that went well above the hardware maximum so that it ended up doing something like that?

I haven't checked precisely, but having it set to Max warmth at 23:00, it reverts to Min by around 02:00.

I think it stays at max for 2 hours: https://github.com/koreader/koreader...ment-379457099

I guess I didn't really think about it at the time, but that sounds oddly short. It's hard to imagine wanting fewer than some 4-6 hours. It's not configurable yet?

Not yet, that is why I have made the request.

Will this request be considered, or should I post it on GitHub (aand if so, where)?

It definitely has a better chance of being one day picked up by a motivated individual if it's posted on GitHub, yeah .

Basically if I'm looking for something I might do I use the GH issues. That's why I triage them with tags as well as milestones (if it's something I'd like to have in a release), and sometimes edit them into more descriptive titles. If it's "something I read on MR" then chances are I just won't think about it a few weeks down the line unless it's on GH, let alone if it's been longer.

I think we've got a pretty decent informal workflow going that way. Many contributors work in similar ways.

Also I've noticed the help-wanted tag has actually started delivering results, being found by random hackers looking for ways to contribute.

NB I'm not trying to imply I'll work on this light thing. I prefer not to touch code I can't test for obvious reasons.

All directories would just be a waste of time. Unless you're putting documents in system folders, I suppose.

Home folder serves that use case. It searches all relevant book-related folders.
