ETA: Perhaps I misunderstood. I thought you meant it could be done now with the right combo of instructions. But I don't see any existing option to set config values for ColorSetting or FrontLightLevel. Last edited by jackie_w; 06-17-2020 at 08:47 AM. Reason: ETA |

Do remember https://github.com/geek1011/NickelMenu/issues/3 before getting your hopes up about frontlight actions .

I've just tried the menu for the first time, hoping that it might serve as a replacement for KSM, since I've never used the advanced features it offers. It works so well, and it's so easy to figure out that I removed KSM from my Aura One within minutes!
I just love the way it integrates, and the additional options like invert screen and screenshots that work on the fly, and all the potential it has to develop even further. Wonderful work! I have one quick quick question, is there any advantage/disadvantage to using kfmon and images to launch Plato, KOReader, etc, as opposed to simply using cmd_spawn? |

@Alanon: For Joe Random on current FW versions and forgetting extreme corner-cases, if you follow the recommended syntax (and minimum supported versions, if applicable), not really.
I like not depending on Nickel because I don't actually run Nickel most of the time, hence KFMon . But NM is definitely more user-friendly while inside Nickel, hence the KFMon generator for the "best of both worlds" approach (i.e., an NM button, but launch handled by KFMon. This is what the OCP bundles do.). Last edited by NiLuJe; 06-17-2020 at 11:49 AM. |

1) enabled backgroundless on a lark to see if that'd trigger it. No joy 2) enabled the inverse option to hope it would do the trick. No joy 3) enabled the old nightmode hack options (doubted this would work but eh). No joy Any thoughts? |

@MGlitch: Try with the latest MiniClock build, make sure you don't have duplicate (Invert) entries in your (Kobo) config file.

I've attatched my miniclock config, note that using the setting in reading settings which replaced adobe page numbers does work as intended. It's only when using NM's invert setting which I have as #invert menu_item : reader : Invert : nickel_setting : invert That does not trigger miniclock to change. |

The earlier Adobe page numbers kobopatch will store that same setting in the [Reading] section, because it had no choice. If you haven't already you need to: - disable the patch - manually delete InvertScreen=true from the [Reading] section. If you don't do that you'll get the 2 entries fighting each other and the MiniClock display may have a white background after inverting the screen. |

Thanks Jackie, that did the trick
Love the patch, but NM just makes it -that- much quicker to toggle on/off. Which of course was the idea of the patch in the first place. |

@jackie_w: Huh. Thanks for tracking down the reason why people had duplicate entries \o/.

Has there been any update on this? I realize "near future" is broad, just wondering if any progress has been made?

I am working on it, but it's tied up into the Web UI I'm working on (https://github.com/shermp/Kobo-UNCaGED/issues/30), which in turn tied up by the fact I need find out when the content import process is finished, which in turn has lead me into a slightly more ambitious project that will let me know that, and more... |

I forgot to mention, you can still launch the current version of KU with NM. Just create a NM config file that launches the same start script that's in the kfmon config file runs. (Use the cmd_spawn command)
