KOReader on Boox Palma

Fai391 · 05-28-2024, 07:41 AM

Hi all,
I am running KOReader on a Boox Palma device. I noticed, however, the KOReader icons and windows are very small. It seems there should be a way to scale the app to match small screen sizes.
I am wondering if you can help me overcoming this issue.

Thamks in advance for your time

Look at DPI. You'll want to increase its value to make things bigger

Just use the app optimization in the Boox firmware. There are two, so to not mix it up: Don't take the one that is included in the swipe down menu from the top where the icon looks like three lines with sliders (this is for global settings), but the one that is originally in the NaviBall and looks like the hexagon with a ring around it. There you can change dpi settings (a bit misleading) to change the size of things displayed in individual apps.

Thank you @pazos and @Julie Paradise
for your tips. Quite helpful.
I would like to add that I had to change the spi settings inside the app settings from Auto dpi to the value I want.
