Would it be possible to create a patch to lock the Forma in left- or right-handed mode?
I run mine locked in portrait, but it still flips upside down now and again, and it always seems to do that far easier than flipping back |

I think it will be more trouble than it's worth, judging by a quick look at the code. I'll look at it in depth a bit more while I'm updating the patches for 4.12.12111 this weekend.

Thanks! And a little cheeky reminder of this request, just in case you missed it as the thread did go off-topic for a bit after I posted it: Quote:

No don’t worry about it at all! You’re way too busy. There’s no rush for the patch, I’d really love for it to be developed but please take your time and do other more important things first! |

Can't you use Refresh from menu in the Articles list? That doesn't check for new firmware as far as I know, it only gets new pocket articles. I assume doing it this way you wouldn't see the download/skip message.

I know your are bussy these days but can you check if there's some option to make something for my patch request? Except the WiFi insomnia that jcn363 has already shown me that exists in "Developer options". Thanks |

Hmm that’s a good idea, thanks! I do like being lazy though and just leaving the WiFi on. It’s nice just having the articles there when I browse to Pocket on my Clara, instead of having to wait for it to sync before I can start reading. But I’ll look into it anyway |

Since firmware 4.11.11980 the navigationbar appears always when tapping on the center of the display. Would be nice to have an option to handle this behaviour.

This is still a bug on the latest 4.12.12111 patches. I've tried it on both Kobo Forma and Kobo Aura One |

Would it be possible to have a VERY small footer - like 1 or 2 pixels high - and show a book progress bar (or chapter progress bar if that’s what people want). It would allow an almost full screen display of text, but provide continuous information on where you are up to.
I am not sure how many pixels would be required to be clearly visible with high res screens, but I would be happy to try it with a 2 pixel bar. Last edited by tumbi; 12-17-2018 at 12:52 AM. Reason: Typing error |
