That sounds like it might be a bug with the new device firmware. Maybe you should report it to Kobo?

Hello !
Request if possible : Make the brightness slider on the display's edge less sensitive (the vertical slider you can use when reading, not the one in the proper brightness menu). Motivation : On my Libra 2 when reading in bed I either use 4% or 2% brightness, depending on ambiant light. However, I find it very difficult to set the value accurately when sliding on the edge to set the brightness. Most of the time, the smallest increment I can manage is by 3%, and if I try to make even shorter swipes then I'll likely highlight some text instead. As a result, I often resort to using the proper brightness menu with the +/- 1% buttons. Side note : I haven't used KoReader in a while (and never on my Libra 2) but IIRC, the slider on the display's edge was less sensitive on it, making it a lot easier to set precise values with it. This leads me to believe it might be possible to fix in Nickel. P.S : Thank you to everyone involved in making Kobo Patches. They offer massive improvements and make it possible to enjoy Nickel without being frustrated by the lack of customisation. |

Hi. Thank you for developing these patches. Many of these have been helpful to me on my new Kobo. I was wondering if there was a patch where the names of items on the bottom menu on the home screen could be shortened ('My Books' to 'Books,' 'My Notebooks' to 'Notes')? I was able to do this for the Nickelmenu link, but I'm not sure how to accomplish this with the others. I have to use a larger font for the UI due to my eyesight, so the words of the links are too close together.

Going by various posts by @geek1011, they are rather busy with real life and have not had the time to spend on updating the Kobo patches/patcher.
