Reading places now hold up better between a Kobo, KOReader, KOSync apps and the web reader, shelves follow the Library's view settings, and a new option keeps cover proportions in EPUBs.
Added
- A setting to keep a new cover's proportions in your EPUBs. Changing a cover used to rewrite the EPUB with a cover page stretched to the screen, which looked distorted on readers whose screen shape differs from the cover's. Turn on "Preserve cover aspect ratio in EPUBs" under NextGen Settings to keep the cover's shape, the same as Calibre's own option. It is off by default and applies to covers written after you turn it on. Requested by @NeonTink. (#2687)
Fixed
-
A Kobo that wakes up with a book open no longer undoes a newer place from another reader. With Share my place on, a Kobo report that repeats the place it last sent now leaves a newer web reader or KOReader place alone, and the Kobo's next sync offers it that place. Reading on the Kobo still wins as before. (#2783)
-
A save from a KOSync app such as JustRead now moves your Kobo to the same place, not only to the same percentage, when the place converts exactly into the KEPUB your Kobo holds. (#2783)
-
A place you save in the web reader right after opening a book now reaches your other devices. A page turn in the first few seconds saved the place without a percentage, so your Kobo and KOReader never heard about it. The reader now saves it again with its percentage. (#2783)
Thanks to @lukerajah for the detailed reports and testing behind all three.
-
Shelves and Smart shelves follow the book density you pick on the Library page, and shelves load the number of rows you set in "Rows per load" instead of 24 books at a time. Contributed by @sgreadly. (#980)
-
The Library no longer gets stuck on "Loading…" at certain window widths with Rows per load set to 1. Reported and fixed by @sgreadly. (#2903)
-
A book set to a built-in font opens straight away in the web reader, instead of waiting several seconds for the list of reader fonts.
