Confused (but previously I wasn't): Kobo Cloud question

[Dr. Drib]

I did something a few days ago on my Kobo Aura HD, and now I can't seem to duplicate the same situation.

Basically, I want to have my kobo ebooks (say 25) available on the Cloud, AND have them listed on my Aura HD, and have the list hidden.

The part I can't seem to find is where to hide this list. Too, I have the books on my Aura HD right now, but there is no arrow, as before.

To summarize - Previously: I had the arrows, and there was a 'hide' button somewhere, so that I didn't have cluttered screens. This is the situation that I would now like to have a again: The books in the Cloud and the arrow buttons, and the 'Hide' activated.

Sorry for such silly questions, but I've been playing with this for a while and can't seem to solve it.

I'm running 3.2.0 right now.

Ah-hah!

I figured it out.

So here's some help for someone like me:

1) Go to Kobo's website. Put the books you want in "I'm Reading."

) In "Library Settings," click "Only show downloaded items." This will hide the books you don't want on your Kobo screen - which potentially could fill up screenloads of ebooks, depending on how much you own.

You probably already know this one, but when there is a book icon on the home screen and you are through with it but don't want to delete it from the eReader, a long-press on that icon yields a menu to either "Open" or "Dismiss tile". Dismiss removes it from the home screen but leaves it undisturbed in your Kobo's Library.

I did know that one, but I thank you!

This is like those tiles which one can remove: A long press gets rid of them.

I'm loving the larger screen and the wonderful clarity on this reader.....[Don't get me started!]

Thanks for sharing. I've just changed the settings on my Aura so non-downloaded items are not visible.

Very handy feature, and I'm going to have a chat with out team and see if we could do something similar in the iOS app, for example, a shelf / collection named "Downloads", which contains only downloaded content.
