I'm not seeing it on iPad mini, but testing on larger devices now too.
Could it be that you manually scrolled so the tracking is disabled? I think we should update the "return to position" button to always be visible even if the other bottom controls are hidden since its so finicky to re-enable.
Just clarifying: the behavior now will use more of the page to avoid the content jumping a lot, so it will keep a fixed page, and then scroll once the text gets towards the bottom of the page.
It sounds like you are seeing something else though, and its just not scrolling at all?
Oh yeah, it does scroll, but in a long paragraph, it waits to scroll until the bottom of that paragraph. And when you bring up the player UI, the scroll button always appears, so I’m often confused when it shows up because I’m not always sure if I’m at the right spot.
So if it’s part of the new behavior, that’s fine with me — I just wish that when I’m at the right spot, the scroll button would disappear when I open the player UI.
Ah i see what you mean. So if it is currently tracking don't show the button
and then the other issue is if its a really big parapgrah the scroll doesn't happen early enough.
I just clicked the scroll button a couple seconds ago now I’m gonna have to click it again
@stone shoal so its not following along at all for you?
It sometimes does this when I click the auto‑scroll button until it stops letting me press it, but sometimes—like in the screenshot—it doesn’t automatically scroll down to the next section.
Ahh yes, it's doing that for me. I don't like it to get so low on the screen so I manually bump it up early, but if that's expected behavior than it's not really a "bug", just a feature change that I'm not a fan of. 🙂 I appreciate the clarity!
I think probably need to tweak how far down it goes on the various iPad models
I'm still a bit confused by your screenshot though Liam, so in this screenshot the highlighter has gone past the bottom of the view?
Yes I have to make the player ui appear and click the scroll button
It didn’t automatically go down in that instance to the highlighted section
@stone shoal can you let me know the device you are on, and if you use portrait/landscape, also if possible the document you had issues with?
In the next update that button will only display when following is disabled, so that will help diagnose a little.
iPad (10th generation) I use landscape mostly white line fever Lemmy the autobiography or the complete works of Ernest Hemingway (I don’t remember which one I deleted the latter)
@subtle hull I just wanted to let you know that it happened again on the file Beethoven: Anguish and Triumph
Actually, i think i see the issue, its probably the font size.
You have it quite large, right?
If that's an iPad
Yes 34pts (don’t judge meðŸ˜)
not judging! Makes sense, ok there's probably one calculation that needs to be updated to properly account for font size. Thank you!
Oh so my font size made you find something else that maybe needs fixing
If so then you’re welcome 😂
@stone shoal well we calculate how close we are to the bottom based on some pixel offsets, but it likely isn't taking into account the font size properly.
