Thanks, fakebannana; I modified some of the code you sent me and added it to the latest version.

Laughing Man: You can press "menu" (hardkey or on the top") then go to "Transform" and select a rotation. Selecting "Keep Rotation" will make it preserve that rotation when you change pages, and "Automatic Rotate" will rotate the image automatically if it is taller than it is wide (like the default image viewer does.) To make it do this automatically every time, go to Edit>Preferences, then Behaviour, then check "Automatically rotate pages as default".

This is awesome but the version before the update worked better. It now locks up on me for no apparent reason after I went to check for updates in the Application Manager and it told me there was an updated version and I installed it.

Oh... really? Does this happen with anyone else? I'm sorry, both of my devices don't lock up. As a temporary thing, I repackaged the old version with a new number for you (click on it on the IT):
http://rickybrent.com/maemo/comix/co....osso2_all.deb

Of course, as a later thing, I might just remove it altogether... if using that file does fix things, I'd *really* appreciate if it you could try a few other files for me -- there were two big changes I made in the new version, and if I could figure out which one was causing the problems, it would be a huge help. Thanks!

*edit* If you still have the version in the repository, does the crashing go away if you disable the "Sort Files Nicely" option? It's toward the bottom of the behavior tab.

I unchecked "sort files nicely" and that didn't fix it. Even weirder, since yesterday, I can't see anything but he cover for my .cbr comic book files, even the ones that used to open fine before the update. I haven't moved or done anything to those files, so that is really strange.

I'm off to reinstall the previous version, hopefully I can re-use my comic book files with that one.

The link you provided for the previous version doesn't work at all for me. All I get is a page full of gibberish when I click it from the ITT browser.

I'd really like to be able to use Comix again, I thought it was a great app.

Thanks a million, ldrn, great work!

Ack! I'm really sorry, E-motion; I didn't know I had to AddType .deb as an application/octet-stream in my .htaccess file to make it so you can click download it. It came up as gibberish because your browser saw it as text...

(Now I finally also know why the debian armel sites I sometimes use do the same thing.)

It works now; I tested it on my N800.

Also, you're welcome, Borghal.

Ok, I uninstalled Comix and installed Python runtime then reinstalled Comix, couldn't get Comix to even start. So I then uninstalled Python, uninstalled Comix, and reinstalled Comix. Now it works again

Any chance of speed optimizations ? It's great as it is, other than for the random lockups though. Keep up the good work.

Great program! I use fit width mode and fullscreen as the default. Am I imagining things, or was I able in a prior version to tap at the top of the screen to go to the previous page and tap at the bottom of the screen to go to the next page? Right now no matter where I tap it goes to the next page. Any chance of changing this or maybe just being able to only display the next/previous arrows at the bottom and top of the screen so I can do the same thing? Or is there a better way to do this that I don't know about? Thanks for your help.

Thanks! I wish speed optimizations were on the horizon, but... truthfully, I barely understand how comix works, so I don't think I'll be able to. Sorry!

I thought about that too, Pushwall. I think you're thinking of another app, though; Comix has always just gone next page on click. (Maybe the built in image viewer? It shows overlays of the arrows, too; tis very nice.) That I may be able to add, though.
