text indents ignored by Stanza

spaze · 03-10-2011, 04:29 AM

Does anyone know why Stanza is ignoring text indentation on paragraphs? In the styles.css file I have this for p style:

text-indent:1.5em;

In Sigil and in Cybook Opus paragraphs look OK.

I feel like I just typed this just a few minutes ago...

Change it in:

Code:

text-indent:1.5em !important;

Stanza will ignore it otherwise. Be careful, some readers will not like the !important tag, but some reading apps (aldiko, Stanza) will not play nice otherwise.

Thanks for your help, Toxaris, but I just discovered that in the latest version of Stanza there is a setting where you can set the amount of paragraph indentation.

So now I can have my EPUB the way OO and Sigil makes them and stil have nicely formatted paragraphs in Stanza.
