Palm Tapcis. Some issues in reader.
Email sent with screen shots attached.
======
Reader (example F.TXT from the
http://china.panlogicsoftware.com site)
- Showing a lot of useless info from UNI dictionary (UNI_Dict_Popup.png) in pop-up or bottom dictionary window.
Advancing using RIGHT arrow on pop up doesn't advance actual text cursor position
Advancing doesn't always advance. (WontAdvance.png - Cannot advance past 2nd character if started at 1st)
Was opened with "UTF-16" selected, which turned out to be wrong. Needed to be UTF-8
Perhaps I am trying to advance too quickly? Sometimes if I wait a while, it will eventually advance. THERE IS NO VISUAL INDICATOR that it is "advancing".
I tried same file as Both UTF-16 variants, and also as UTF-8
It's strange that you can get to the pop up menu (Magnify, look up, etc) from within the pop-up window, but cannot get them directly from the reader.
You also get the pop up menu from the reader dictionary bar (at bottom).
Feature Req: Able to toggle the bottom dictionary bar on/off from the reader screen (or minimize) Reason: It's larger than the pop-up, and often faster to move around the text, but if not needed, the extra screen space would be useful (especially on smaller devices).
Feature: Be able to add notes to document. They could be part of bookmark system.
BUG: Sometimes after selecting a character, the menu comes up, but cannot get Character Info. It worked 1st time on a character (just clicked the character). Clicking again on the character and the Character Info didn't come up. Wouldn't come up from the "Char Info" pop up menu either. Changed to another word and it worked there, changed back and it worked again multiple times...
Highlight text in the bottom reader dictionary bar and press magnify. Doesn't work correctly. Sometimes shows a dark "empty" box (selected pinyin), sometimes nothing (selected English text). Works OK for Chinese.
Extremely hard to resize the bottom dictionary bar. Hard to select. Perhaps a "wider" selection area?
Sometimes the file name is shown on the reader screen and sometimes not. Perhaps if Bookmark is selected, it could show the file name in the title of that pop-up, etc?
ABC Lookup of "de" in reader pop up window seems incorrect. Bad_De_Definition.png)
Bookmark pop up list window could be much taller and should be at least double the current width. (BookmarMenu.png)
In the "Manage Bookmark" screen, could you show file position? Able to Sort by name as well as position. Perhaps also have the date and time of bookmark...
There's no way to see where the bookmark is on the page. Could the display routing "insert" a MARKER character (not actually change the file).?
Bug: Main dictionary page Dictionary history has a blank line at bottom (BlankHistoryLine.png)
