+1
Some zoom and/or font size option would be nice, otherwise have to use stdu viewer instead if text too small or eyesight too bad.

Replace images' white background with transparency or reader's background

Reem Bar — Sun, 20 Oct 2019 23:41:38 -0000

I'm missing a feature that is present in FBReader and Librera: to replace the white background of the images in the book with gradient transparency (or just color them with overlay of the background), so the page would look better.
Thanks for your great software!

Add support for Lingoes dictionary

Reem Bar — Sun, 20 Oct 2019 23:33:41 -0000

Hi.
I would be glad if you'll add support for Lingoes dictionary. Currently it can be used by copying a text to the clipboard on Cool Reader, but when a word is followed or preceded by a punctuation mark like ? , . " ! ( ) etc. those are selected as well and Lingoes doesn't recognize the words that include them.
Thanks for your great software!

#198 List features and shortcomings in help file

Hm, I can't seem to edit my original feature request. It should say

Can someone list what CSS it supports...

Put version of program in Settings, About screen.

Bulrush — Fri, 15 Feb 2019 14:03:40 -0000

List program version in the ebook manual or in a settings screen somewhere. I can't seem to find what version of the program I have so I have no idea if it needs to be updated or not.

On the Settings screen you can put an About subscreen. That would be consistent with Windows apps.

List features and shortcomings in help file

CR comes with a manual which the user can access by clicking the "?" in a circle, and other ways. This manual does not list shortcomings of the software. Some someone list what CSS it supports, which HTML tags it supports, and what CSS and HTML it does not support? That would be helpful. I can't find this info anywhere on the Sourceforge page either.

I filed a bug that CR does not seem to support the style="" attribute in a <div> tag.

#20 TTS support in android

So, this could be probably closed, right? Certainly, it could get some love (e.g., https://sourceforge.net/p/crengine/bugs/311/), but the general support is there.
