Auto Scrolling One Page At A Time

Please include asap page scrolling.

Presently Calibre allows for line scrolling. Very nice.

I'd like to see a new page with each scroll. And some good way to control the speed of that page-at-a-time scrolling.

Thanks!

Did you know tapping the space bar pages (screen full) forward?

Yes, if configured to default.

But good for only a single shot. Not good for more than one. Want new pages to keep showing up. Again and again. Like auto-scroll.

Sure look forward to being able to automatically page down. Seems a very reasonable thing to be able to do.

You know, like, do a page-down every 5 seconds or so (user selectable).

That way someone can just sit and read a whole book at a time. No muss, no fuss.

Not for me, thank you. While I zip through most pages, I will slow down and think a bit about other pages. I have played with auto-scrolling and I was not happy with the results using any of the utilities I tried. Unless you know of one that will allow me to stop and cackle at a humorous bit of text...

Not to forget that 5 seconds per page with an average of 300 words per page (that will vary depending on your preferred font size) works out to 3600WPM. Now that folks, is a reading speed that most of us can only dream about.

Well, easy. User selectable speed.

And ability to pause, of course.

So I watch the page and reach out to pause the page? Or when the last page of a paragraph has 1 line, I have to manually page forward. Sounds like very little gain over tapping the space bar to page forward every 15 seconds or so.

Your suggestion has the smell of a solution in search of a problem.

You could make an autohotkey script click the spacebar for you, and set a hotkey for pausing, if you don't mind having to run that somehow, that's how I automated farming in minercraft lol

Well, since no one seems to understand the use of such a feature, I won't hold my breath.

Otherwise, a good program.

Use a BT clicker as a footpedal?

Years ago I interfaced a set of pedals to the Joystick port to integrate audio playback control into a wordprocessor for audiotyping/transcription.
