.ACV format images doesn't default to selected scale mode

    DInc 2.2

    I've set up my comics archive to include thumbnails per the tutorial, but when loading the images in the archive, they load in fit screen mode despite having selected fit width under scale mode settings.

    Works just fine if I keep the comic archive in .zip format, but I lose the thumbnails when browsing screens.

    Same problem here... All XML-tags do work fine, but the scale-mode doesn't work. Even when tried to override from the ACV-settings-pannel...

    Check the comic.xml file below (works fine, besides scale-mode)...

    ------------------------

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

    <comic version="2" id="the_id_of_this_book" title="the_title_of_this_book" transition="none" bgcolor="#000000" scaleMode="none" paid="false" orientation="2" minViewerVersion="26">

    <images length="7" startAt="0" indexPattern="000" namePattern="screen@index" />

    <thumbnails length="7" startAt="0" indexPattern="000" namePattern="tn_screen@index" />

    <screen index="1" transition="fade"></screen>
    <screen index="2" transition="push" scaleMode="none"></screen>
    <screen index="3" transition="pushUp" scaleMode="best"></screen>
    <screen index="4" transition="pushDown" scaleMode="width"></screen>

    </comic>

    Currently the scale mode defined in an ACV file takes precedence over the scale mode defined in settings.

    Is there going to be an update to fix this? I really enjoyed Robot 13, but am not a fan of guided mode so I turn off all the guided mode things, but it zooms to fit height instead of my system setup of fit width. I usually read horizontally on my Samsung Vibrant phone and would love to not have to do a menu press to override the zoom that Robot 13 and other ACV2 files have.

    GREAT app, by the way! I now get my comics at the store and then scan them in to a .cbr and read them on the fly! Thanks again for creating such a great, simple and powerful app that's designed for comic readers!

    So, after reading the forum a bit, I changed the .xml file to scaleMode="width", but it still doesn't work...what's up?

Howdy, Stranger!
