Why must Next Page be clicked twice?

brooksr · 07-16-2019, 10:18 AM

Hi,
Newbie here. I'm using the Caliber ebook viewer and have an epub file open. Scrolling/paging seems to work except that I must click the Next Page button twice to move to the next page and don't know why.
I can see the page number from the document on the screen so it doesn't seem like the document is extra long which might cause this problem.
Any suggestions to try would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Brooks

You mean the button of the left panel?

Yes. It is an arrow pointing right surrounded by a circle. And when you hover the cursor on it, the tool tip shows 'Next Page'.

Works for me here under Windows 10 and Suse Linux with calibre 4.5.2. What OS and/or version of calibre are you running.

Windows 10 and Caliber 3.45.2.

This was with an .epub file. I just created a .docx file. Maybe the problem will go away.

I've had this occasionally. I don't use the viewer to read linearly, so I never tried to figure out why

Now I'm thinking about it, I am pretty sure its never with epubs I created. Next time I get one I'll try an EPUB->EPUB conversion.

But, it's moot, given there's a new viewer in the pipeline.

Works on W10 here.
The only artifact I sometimes see is a blank page , which I think is due to bottom margins (body, div, p all addin up on that last block. I use top margins only whenever I can

)
