Great work, looks beautiful. I was trying to play with the floating buttons to be horizontal as well. Will love to see this css as well as for the setting and read buttons aligned so beautifully šŸ‘ ---

Itā€™s not my favorite book šŸ˜‰ but i like the concept. Only when I am ā€˜readingā€™ it seems every page needs substantial loading? It that my local problem or a known thing for others as well? That makes a big difference with an ePub. ---

no, it is instantā€¦ i just added effect of turning page, so it feels more like a real book. ---

yes, but the problem is that there is no way to have specific time of showing imageā€¦ glide have a up to 5sec delay. ---

thank youā€¦ it looks like your phone is not handling CSS very wellā€¦ or you open the app while i was updating it. Can you check again? danke shon! But iā€™m sure is something wrong with uploading images on your phoneā€¦ i see there is a half of the button which is a single image. ---

The header scroll problem has gone away because you are doing that differently now šŸ™‚ When choosing settings while reading, the language images are no longer with a square type transparency shadow - now they display nicely šŸ™‚ And the cut off Read button on the home screen is cut off on Safari and Chrome (both updated with latest) It loads really slowly - might be worth looking at the Dev Console and see if there are errors that are causing slow loads. I am on an iPhone 12 - ios 15.5.1 ---

And in landscapeā€¦. Itā€™s not a load problem on the image, as the image appears. There is some kind of overlay, maybe some means of spacing the images, that ā€˜cuts it offā€™ ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/9/7/97e3c1b968207f796b290e16d7090db0901fc916.jpeg) [Previous page](https://community.glideapps.com/t/a-book-reading-app/27160.md?page=1) [Next page](https://community.glideapps.com/t/a-book-reading-app/27160.md?page=3)
