Hide "up"(..) directory?

hartleyshc · 09-20-2019, 05:13 PM

KOReader 2019.3 - Kindle KT4

I've created a folder named Library and I'm using the file explorer in Mosaic view.

Is there a way to hide the "up" directory (..)?
I've tried renaming the higher directory from Library to .Library. It hides it (obviously) but doesn't hide the ".." folder. Can't rename the ".." (obviously, its a basic linux command).

I would like my collection to just be the Book covers and everything is saved from my personal OPDS to this folder, and I really don't have any need to navigate other folders, although hiding the folder would be optimal so I can show hidden folders if ever needed.

If this isn't possible, then I guess this is a feature request.

I don't think that's currently an option.

Yeah, I did a deep dive on the software and even looked through the various lua configs.
Didn't see anything.

Its ok though, its just a minor aesthetic issue.

Heya, sorry for the necro, but after looking around both online and in the Koreader settings, I have found the setting that removes the up (...) square in the Home in mosaic and cover mode:

First, go to your HOME. From there, tap on the KOReader title that is centered top. > Settings > Home folder settings > activate Lock home folder
