I'm going to add the rest of my reader feedback here.
Word doc reader bugs:
1. File name after importing is always TF_Template_Word_Windows_2016
2. Text preview in font settings is correct but actual document formatting is not: line height does nothing and font size changes but does not match the scale of the preview. I didn't test more font settings than that.
3. Reading mode is broken. Error: "Sorry, no readable text was found"
PDF reader (with thumbnail bar on) bugs:
1. PDF is not centered on screen
2. Page number does not show even when turned on
And then the following are all feature requests. A lot of these I've posted to the forums before, but you asked us to tell you things we still want after the new update, so here goes. (And thanks for fixing/adding stuff I mentioned before! The app is already fantastic.)
First, one suggestion for Settings: I'd rename "Tone coloring" in settings to something like Colors (tones and tint), or just Colors. I keep forgetting tint is also there.
Reader feature requests:
1. I like how there's no chrome around the show tab bar icon when the tab bar is hidden. I wish it was the same way when the tab bar is shown because that's when the button covers the text.
2. A document type specific to ebooks/epubs would still be nice
3. Option in settings to auto save/load document profiles. This would do as described and also hide the save/load buttons. Alternate implementation: Add a toggle to document settings (with an option to have it on by default for new documents) to auto-save/load. When on, it behaves as described above. This alternate implementation would be preferred for me because then you'd still have the option to have a document with one-off settings without creating a new profile (by turning the toggle off).
4. Ability to reorder (or even hide) sections in the document settings menu (globally, rather than per document). I use that menu a lot. Could even just be with little buttons next to the headers like in the Manage Dictionaries screen in Settings.
5. Ability to customize the top menus that show for pop-up reader and selected text. Specifically, I would want to hide or rearrange the buttons (including moving in/out of the "Share" menu).
6. Add favicons/icons to the look-up options.
7. Define our own look-up options.
8. Option to have the pop-up reader menu attach to the top of the reader bubble to keep it more reachable.
9. When a document is open, single tap (or maybe double tap) the reader button in the bottom tab menu to close the document and return to the bookshelf view. Then another tap to open search like normal.
10. When deleting a reader document, add an option to the confirmation dialogue to delete the original file as well. Meanwhile, it seems like the delete prompt for Clipboard/Web/Live OCR should still be reworded (or changed to a hide function)
11. I'd still love to have an option for an always on tab bar + slider.
12. Add an option to enlarge Chinese text size in the reader pop-up (and also dictionary list) like there is for dictionary body (I realize I can get enlarged Chinese text if I expand the reader bubble, but having it already enlarged in the bubble would be nice).
13. Be able to sort bookshelf by file type
14. Add a "command bar" to the top of the Reader bookshelf (similar to the one in search when you search for a sentence) that has the commands from the open menu for quicker access (ideally customizable, maybe up to two rows so people have space to include "Still OCR" sub-menu options). If that were added, I'd prefer to just keep Clipboard/Web/Live OCR there rather than having them as documents, but I get that they function as documents with document settings, so maybe that doesn't make sense.
15. Add an immersive reading mode toggled by tapping anywhere on screen that doesn't trigger the pop-up reader. It would hide the bottom and top bars and icons (including the show/hide tab bar icon), leaving only the page number (if turned on). (Yes, if there was an always on tab/bar + slider it would leave a lot of space at the bottom, but in my case I wouldn't have that on for the kind of documents I'd want to read immersively.) If the document is an ebook with chapter info, the chapter name could move to the top where the top menu used to be. (When it's at the bottom after the page count, there's not space to display much of the name anyway on my phone.) Reader pop-ups and their menus would still show normally when a character is selected. Optionally, it would also hide the system clock and battery/connectivity.
I naturally want to be able to toggle an immersive mode like this every time I open a book in Pleco. Add an immersive mode and you're just a few steps away from a standalone epub reader app if you want to expand your company
