The patch should work as long as the libnickel file stays the same. If it changes, all bets are off. |

Bravo! What a fantastic and generous piece of work by Metazoa on the Russian forum!
The KoboAura/calibre combo is hard to beat. |

2.8.1 with Metazoas patch is pretty much perfect for me, it's basicly fullscreen readingmode for epubs.
Might be a good idea to split the part of this thread that talks about the mod into a new thread and move it into the dev forum. |

I've already added this into the Dev Sticky post on hacks and patches.

I've got the feeling this is a daft question, but I could not find the answer in the previous messages: does the patch apply to the EPUB renderer only, or are the various customizations available in the Kepub viewer, too?

Well, bother. I thought that when I saw the .exe, but couldn't see it specified/discussed. Looking at the instructions though, I don't suppose a kind person could run the relevant app for me (the only thing I don't want is wifi insomnia) and offer me the resulting KoboRoot.tgz? I've a Glo on 2.8.1.

I mainly read kepubs, so I went back to release 2.6.1 and applied the patch. Version 2 of the patch had footer values of 50, 50, 20. I changed it to 60, 60, 20, which is half of Kobo's original value. Both values result in the same footer and number of lines per page wth my settings . So I am ok now. I also avoid the 2.8.1 bug with my kepubs showing a blank page. I have a workaround, but 2.6.1 works better in this aspect, too.

* My guess, and guess only, that is why Kobo set the lowest line height to 1.225. |
