I've recently purchased an Aura HD - first ereader I've used. A few things I find rather annoying and would like to ask if they can be changed, as I can't find anything in the settings that changes them. The firmware in the reader is current.
1. Quite often, when I go forward a page in a book, the the page numbering displaying at the bottom of the screen ("Page x of y") doesn't increment, but stays the same. I have to advance two pages for the numbering to increment by one.
2. Is there any way to tighten the leading between paragraphs? Reducing the line spacing to the minimum reduces the leading within paragraphs quite significantly but hardly seems to affect the leading between paragraphs at all. If I'm reading a page that is a succession of single line dialogue paragraphs, it all looks a bit disconnected, and would be easier to read if the inter-paragraph leading were tighter.
3. The Kobo algorithm for determining where to put page breaks doesn't work very well. I sometimes get pages that are only approximately half full, with the following paragraph starting on the next page. From looking at pages where this happens, the common factor I notice is that it seems to be when the following paragraph is so long that it won't fit on a single page even if started at the top of the page. And as the author who I'm currently reading (Patrick O'Brian) frequently has long paragraphs, these half full pages happen quite often.
4. When I tap the RH side of the page to advance, about one time in five or six I get advanced two pages. There doesn't seem to be any sensitivity setting for that that I have found.
