Calibre 4 viewer... Unhappy with update :(
Hello,
I don't like the new viewer. This viewer does not show page numbers. So I have no idea how much is left of the book or where I am in relation to the ending. In the last viewer, you could enlarge the viewer or maximize but still get a single page. Now, when I maxime it creates 3 pages in the view. I am so unhappy with this update. Is there any way to get the old viewer back.

You should get one column of text when you maximize the viewer, if you set Preferences->Page Layout like this .

Click image for larger version Name: Annotation 2019-10-07 084926.jpg Views: 267 Size: 69.6 KB ID: 174042

If you have a bottom margin you should see a percent read in bottom right corner (Progress), if not check Preferences headers and Footers

The page numbers and scroll bars should be available a configurable elements in the next release.
