KOReader landscape mode

posixx · 01-02-2020, 02:33 PM

Hello,

Currently i have set landscape mode as default when a book is opened, but when starting up KOReader it is still using portrait mode. How can i make sure KOReader starts up in Landscape mode?

Looking at the code i see in device.lua:

-- Kobo Forma:
-- NOTE: Right now, we enforce Portrait orientation on startup to avoid getting touch coordinates wrong,
-- no matter the rotation we were started from (c.f., platform/kobo/koreader.sh).

So how can we turn this feature off?

You don't. Just set your default reading orientation to landscape (in a book, bottom menu, long press to set a global default).

The file manager is Portrait only.
