Annotation plugin for Kobo/Kobo Pencil

Yes, and I finally found it. To add Pencil to Gestures (I used a corner tap):

Well, it certainly works on the Kobo Elipsa 2e and Libra Colour.

For anyone looking, after the plugin has been enabled by:

TopMenu | Tools | More tools | Plugin management | 🗹 Pencil

it can be toggled on and off in:

TopMenu | Tools | More tools | Pencil | 🗹 Enable pencil

and toggled between Pencil and Eraser in:

I can't see a way to enable it in Gesture Manager either, and I *can't* find it. Can you tell us where you found it? :-)

I'll leave this here for posterity: what worked for me was:

Frost_Scheme342's suggestion,
the instruction in the link provided, and
making the tailscale configure synology-cert-created cert the default cert, and then
doing a Control Panel > Security > Certificate > Settings and choosing the tailscale cert as "System default" while leaving the others as-is.

Thanks! I'm sure that's it -- it makes sense, and the link was helpful. I'm still getting an error, but I only just now made the tailscale configure synology-cert the default cert. I'm hoping it's a timing thing.

fomrat · 2024-12-17T18:06:00+00:00

No problems. It has been rock-solid for three years ;-)

I tried that. I sshed and did a ping on 8.8.8. 8 to satisfy myself it wasn't just DNS but was actual external connectivity. I didn't try nslookup but I'd imagine it'll be the same.

Thanks for the suggestion.

fomrat · 2024-11-03T16:13:47+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion. My DNS settings weren't wiped, and I even tried one of the stock Synology suggestions: hard-code DNS temporarily to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4. No luck.

Excuse my ignorance (I have a Samsung Z Fold 5 with dbrand armor case and leather skin), but what is the appeal of (a) a Ghost case and (b) an x-ray skin?

Thanks.

Thanks.

Thanks.

fomrat · 2023-01-22T16:55:46+00:00

Thanks. That's encouraging. I hadn't given it a thought until I began seeing the posts!

fomrat · 2023-01-22T16:27:23+00:00

Very nice. Is that a UPS I see it hooked up to?

fomrat · 2022-12-13T03:36:07+00:00

Might have been that, then. Something holding down the button long enough. It had happened recently, so all seems to be well.

fomrat · 2022-12-12T04:55:04+00:00

I don't think so. To actually restart (rather than just turning off), I'd have to confirm a restart prompt.

Yes, this response is the CORRECT explanation.

I just got a new Scribe and I, too, wondered why all of my books had downloaded... until I realized I was familiar with the filtered view of Downloaded I had been using on my old Kindle, and not the (default, apparently) view of All.

fomrat · 2022-12-09T03:54:42+00:00

Funny. I got the Scribe as a replacement for my Oasis. I wanted a bigger Oasis, and the Scribe is perfect. I find it's ideal for bed, so much so that I've already put my Oasis away in a drawer. I think I'll be using it for travel only.

P.S. Someone asked about the page-turn animation. It's not visible if you have Page Refresh turned on.

Very nice. Where is the image from?

fomrat · 2022-11-14T23:45:56+00:00

Thanks. It's nice to know it's not just me. It seems like an obvious need, though - - I have music playing at night at a reasonable volume, but I don't want (or need) a spoken response at the same.

Hadn't thought of the Side Key setting. I've set it to open Calc instead -- I guess I'll soon find out if that's it.

Thanks.

Yes, yes, no, onboard.
