I would like the dictionary to open always in full screen mode (This would helpful especially for Japanese, since in most cases you cannot go from the pop-up view to the full screen view.). I once tried a little to find how to do this, but I do not know much asm, and so I did not succeed. Therefore, I compromise a little on the font size and line spacing. |

Hi scoky!
Thanks for the infos you provided. ![]() This gave me a starting point to try out some minor modifications. I played around a bit, using a Hex-Editor, and here are my results. And I must say, now my dictionaries are even more accessible on my Kobo HD. This is a very useful little tweak for those of us who often read foreign texts IMHO. I'm loving it. Note: There's no color on the Kobo display of course, unfortunately. ![]() |

Ok, now it is really strange.
At the start I have made short test version of Chinese to Russian dictionary in Kobo format that consist of only two characters - 谁 and 当时. And named it "dicthtml-es-en.zip". I turned on my Kobo H2O opened a book in Chinese (Chai Jing - Kan Jian - Chai Jing.kepub.epub), I successfully found and checked those two characters in the text (谁 and 当时) - worked flawlessly and their translations displayed in pop-up dictionary window. After that, I converted full version in .dict format (zho_rus.dict) into Kobo's in the exact same way as with short test version and gave it the same name, put in the .kobo dictionary folder and replaced short version with full one. Then I turned on my eBook to find out that Kobo cannot see the full version of the dictionary and displays that I have not es-en dictionary installed. What the hell? I have tried to rename full version to "dicthtml-de-en.zip","dicthtml-fr-en.zip"...you name it and still nothing, with every new name of Kobo's system just keep say that "I do not have (Language) of the dictionary installed in my system. I started to think that "I probably done something wrong during the process" and decided to download custom Chinese-English dictionary from this thread just to check whether it is true and I really messed up again. After I downloaded the file I replaced default dictionary with this one and guess what?.. Kobo still keeps saying that "I do not have (name)dictionary installed in my system". So, where did I made a mistake? And why short version works, but full one not? I am desperate. I am providing all files that need to make a test: - original book in chinese in kepub (it is free, no worries); - short and full version of the Chinese-Russian Kobo format dictionaries; - original stardict Chinese-Russian dictionary (in case I have made mistake during converting stardict to kobo's format). Please, help, I love nickel more than KoReader. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Thanks in advance P.S. If you need me to upload the archive to another sharing service, just say it, I will do it right away. https://mega.nz/#!fwczhDLZ!qZTkv5_8e...csYkmfakV6d1DE |

Simpetus,
since I do not have my Kobo with me, I cannot check your dictionaries right now. I would take a look into the database KoboReader.sqlite and change the entries for your dictionary if necessary (e.g., Installed=true; IsSynced=true, maybe also the values of Size and LastModified). Were dicthtml-de-en.zip and so on already installed on your reader and did they work, before you renamed your dictionary to these names? Last edited by tshering; 11-26-2015 at 06:03 AM. |

I have downloaded SQLite Editor and done this: 1. Checked values - Installed and Synced are all "true"; 2. I have corrected the size (no mistake in bytes I was very careful and precise) of the custom dictionary saved all changes and start the dictionary - no joy, Kobo's system keeps say that I have no the dictionary installed; 3. I even add new entry in Dictionary section of the SQ-file with suffix "zh-ru", exact byte size, set all parameters on "true" and change the name to "dicthtml-zh-ru.zip" - it does appeared in dictionary section when I started Kobo, but when I tried to search a word it was not in the dictionary pop-up window list. Damn you Kobo |
