Added

  • A "Page turn animations:" setting in the Reading settings page, in the Page Appearance
    section alongside the built-in options, so you can turn the animation on or off without editing
    a config file. It is built to match the native rows exactly, takes effect on the next page turn,
    and is remembered across reboots. On any device where the setting cannot be added cleanly it is
    simply left out, and the config file still works as before.

Fixed

  • The first-page-turn animation can no longer fire outside a book. The special handling that
    turns the forced full refresh on a book's first page turn into a smooth animation was only
    guarded by the page-turn buttons, so in rare cases the home screen or a menu could be animated
    by mistake. The mod now tracks whether the reader is actually on screen and only applies that
    first-turn handling when a book is genuinely open.

Improved

  • Smoother page-turn animation on i.MX devices such as the Kobo Libra 2. These panels pace the
    wipe with a fixed delay between bands instead of the hardware timing the newer panels use, and
    the default delay is now a little longer so each band settles cleanly before the next. This
    removes the slight steppiness on those devices. Tuned and confirmed on the Kobo Libra 2, which is
    now hardware-verified.

Install: copy KoboRoot.tgz to the Kobo's hidden .kobo folder, eject, and reboot. Settings are in KOBOeReader/.adds/nickel-dissolve/config; see the README.

Uninstall: delete KOBOeReader/.adds/nickel-dissolve/uninstall and reboot.
