Re: New FBReader build in Extras-Devel
 

I'll have a look at adding that back in.

Re: New FBReader build in Extras-Devel
 

I'm personally missing search in the Library window, but I found that there is no such search in the upstream FBReader either. Ideally I would like to have a limiting search like in the contact application so that when you start typing only the entries that match are shown. I have far too many books installed and flipping through them searching for them is too inefficient...

A new version is being uploaded now, adding back the "Copy to clipboard" option (with Ctrl+C as a keyboard shortcut). There doesn't look to be any paste functionality in fbreader at all though.

Re: New FBReader build in Extras-Devel
 

Did this work in the old version? There does look to be some sort of search functionality that I can see about re-enabling. I think filtering (as you suggest, which would indeed be better) would need to be implemented upstream though.

Hello, Rob1n

Could you please return the standard Hildon notifications (rather than the gray messages at the top left corner) and do something about the Library window (barely useful in the new version)?

Re: New FBReader build in Extras-Devel
 

Yes, there was a simple search in the earlier version in the Library view. It would open up highlight the first book that matched the search term. It would be great getting this back.

Btw, do you have a public repo with your maemo source changes for FBReader?

Re: New FBReader build in Extras-Devel
 

What's wrong with the Library window? It works perfectly well here. I'll have a look at the notifications - it depends on how they're implemented.

Re: New FBReader build in Extras-Devel
 

I can't find anything in the current release to do this - the only search functionality I can find is within a book. I'll pull down the old release and have a look there. I thought there was some filter functionality, but it seems to be just a stub at the moment :( Still, perhaps that means it'll be coming in a future release.

No - you can grab all the diffs (and the shell script I use to apply them) from here (not all the diffs are used though). They apply against the fbreader-0.12.10 source code you can download from fbreader.org.

Re: New FBReader build in Extras-Devel
 

Hello, I also think that the previous Library view was better. Now in landscape mode, only five books fit on a page, thus You have to scroll a lot more then in previous versions.
To read a book, you can't tap on the book's icon or title which are quite big, but You have to hit the really small 'Read book' link instead. If You have multiple categories and open one of them than the only way to get to another category is to either scroll through all the books (remember - only five fit on a page, so scrolling is annoying) or scroll back to the category and hide the list there. And there is no search field to filter the list (to achieve less scrolling), so the Library really is merely unusable...

So, if You would:
- allow to close a category using a button (there is plenty of space at the bottom)
- make the list of books more condensed to fit more books on a page (I suggest getting rid of the links below title, ie. read, edit and remove book - the screen space is too precious to have them where they are)
- allow to open a book by tapping the book's icon and title
- allow to filter the list of books

that would in my opinion make it more usable than it is now.

Thanks a lot in advance!
Jan

Nice; Ctrl-C to copy and Ctrl-V to paste are now working, and Copy Selection to Clipboard is back.
