![]() ![]() Today my kobo looks like one other! Maybe when I was sleeping did come a wizard or a sort of..and changed my old device because all freezes, blocking, instabilities that affected it so sadly yersterday, now have disappeared completely! ![]() ![]() Mah. I've been doing more testing this morning, I have loaded Clara with some new books of mine, some epub standard mixed with kepub files in other cases and everything has been working fine! What should I think about? Is my kobo nuts? Or sideloaded fonts would bother it in a way (I took them out, now it's going with its own default fonts), or, did it simply needed a factory reset being brand new? What do you all usually do with your newly purchased devices? Do you usually put them to work at first swithch on, or you just reset them first? |

I put them to work.
I've got lots of sideloaded fonts on my Kobos, and rarely any freezing. Kobos can be moody - yours might just have been in a bad mood yesterday, or it felt ashamed when you talked about the inferiority of Kobos in the other thread. ![]() |

In the Aa menu, turn off justification and your centered text will once again be centered.

Seems a bit melodramatic to me. All I was trying to say is that there are tools to help with your original complaint. It's entirely up to you whether you use them. |

I don't reset a new device. OTOH, for a Kobo, I do register it, copy over my fonts and screensaver directories, install NickelMenu and it's config file and my lone KoboPatch patch (the one that matches epub and kepub base font size). I then add any books that I want on the new device and update metadata including reading state information using calibre.

Since I personally don't use the justification override, it's a matter of indifference to me. |

I used mine normally for a few months, and then I reset it to switch to sideload mode and haven't had to do any further resets in the year since.

As far as justification goes, if you don't want to fully justify the entire text, then you should turn justification off and rely on the CSS to handle that for you, which means you're going to have to edit the book if you don't like the current CSS formatting. There's no way to make the justification setting in the menu do exactly what you want, unless what you want is to force a specific behaviour on the entire book, which is precisely what the menu currently does. |

Longer answer opinion ... I don't see how it's possible because the override is a single CSS statement with '!important' stuck on the end of it. This is a crude blunt instrument at best. What single line of CSS could you create which would selectively change 'justify' to 'left' (or vice versa), whilst leaving as-is 'center' and 'right'? What would have a better chance of success is a program which reads the whole CSS file for each book and modifies only the "relevant CSS styles" but even then there would be problems keeping everyone (or anyone?) happy. For example, I prefer main body text to be full-justified, but any (fictitious) program which auto-changed 'left' to 'justify' for CSS styles intended for poetry text would be a program I wouldn't use. If anyone wanted to pursue this selective approach then I suspect it would be better incorporated as an option in the calibre KOBOTOUCH driver so that the CSS could be auto-modified on-the-fly during the calibre send-to-device process and the master copy of the epub would remain unchanged in the calibre library. In much the same way as the KOBOTOUCHEXTENDED driver kepubifies a standard epub during send-to-device without changing the calibre library epub. |
