Viewing CHM files

[crustyturd]

I have a 4k screen. With current pre-releases viewing CHM files has become much more difficult. If 'UseFixedPageUI' = 'false' for 'ChmUI' setting, the font is too small to see. Having to zoom in for every file is very time consuming and annoying. Also, 'UseFixedPageUI' = 'false' is the only way to wrap text when zooming.
If 'UseFixedPageUI' = 'true', the font size is larger (not as large as I would like), but zooming does not wrap text.
I would like to see a default zoom level percentage for CHM files, if possible, or, some other solution to alleviate this problem.

Do you mean that it's different than in latest released version (3.3.3) ?

Could you post a screenshot of the difference between 3.3.3 (you can use portable version) and pre-release?

I don't think I've made any changes to how CHM files are displayed.

ok, 14591 is available and seems I fixed the crash

Yes, now it loads. However, It is only marginally larger. Also, in this build it seems that the document color is not inverted when pressing 'i' key. It is still inverted for the sidebar and for PDF documents.
Anyway, thanks for trying. This is a great program and I will continue to use it.

Sorry, it appears invert colors does not work only when CHM 'UseFixedPageUI=false'. I guess it's supposed to work that way.

For what it's worth, with this change now I get the exact same sizing in SumatraPDF as in Windows' HTML Help

Yes, here too. I was looking for some improvement over that. For now, I will keep using an earlier pre-release that still uses EBook FontName and FontSize. I don't get the word wrap if I zoom in, but I can at least set a font size such that I rarely need to zoom. Until, that is, you add a new 'must have' feature. Then I will have to reconsider.
Thanks again for spending so much time on this.

I don't see any change between 3.1.2 and current 3.4.14583 however SumatraPDF in both modes is noticeably smaller than MS
here using standard HD (1920x1080) at 125% (recommended)

I'm sorry, I should have mentioned my 4k screen is set to 3840x2160 UHD with system scaling at 200%. I also use high-contrast mode.
Actually, they look the same with 3.3.3 as with pre-release. However, in 3.3.3 I was able to set EBook font and size which
applied to CHM files when UseFixedPageUI=true. I'd rather not use compatiblity mode scaling because it looks much better in native mode, but it appears much smaller of course. If I cannot set default zoom for CHM files, I will try compatibility mode scaling to system (200%), which is OK but not as good as native mode.
Here is screenshot at 3840x2160, UseFixedPageUI=false:
