Sigil 4.0 beta 3
After some editing of contents.opf and toc.ncx I have produced my first ePub with Sigil 4.0. The TOC appears on upload and is correct and symantics work.
Is there a sequence to operations recommended for 4.0? Where I first load a html file the only the filename.htm is showing in the Book Browser. Flight Crew reports it as an invalid URL as it is apparently looking for xhtml files. I rename it as cover.xhtml and that error goes away. After I split the file (f6), Flight Crew reports all Chapters as non-existant since all are still named as Sections in the Book Browser. As I rename each section, these reported errors go away. While you are making major changes could a simple change be made to the Book Browser menu? Remove and Rename are adjacent. It would be very nice of you to move the REMOVE selection to the bottom of the menu. It also would be nice if the beta version were contained in the ABOUT window Good work. All good things come to he who waits. |

How do you turn off the "clean as you go" feature?(Beta 3 Win7 x64) Tidy on or off makes no difference - in CV you can't cut&paste without the error window appearing. It won't even allow you open another window (an editor used to store cut&paste data) without creating an error.
Example: I inserted an <i> in he text stream and then tried to paste the </i>. The second I clicked the right mouse button at the insertion point, the error message pops up. Clicking the "Manual Fix" button puts you in an ever ending loop until you manually type in the info. Another strange result: In he above scenario I clicked the auto fix while editing the first paragraph. In one instance it placed the </i> the end of he current paragraph and placed "sgc-1" in every class statement for the rest of the chapter. In every other instance it placed he <i>&</i> at the beginning and end of each paragraph. Regard - John |

Windows 7 64bit. Can try 32bit sigil if you want.
Regards - John P.S. After validating, I removed some image files and decided using sigil was to slow so I unzipped and removed them manually. Went back to sigil and re-validated. An error was generated for each file manually removed (including the "href" errors which had been removed long since and was the reason I was removing the image files.) Validating with V3.4 Windows 7 in 32bit mode (running both on same computer) validates without error. Last edited by Jabby; 03-26-2011 at 05:10 PM. Reason: add to |

Small changes to beta
Valloric,
If you're working on toc.ncx, a cr/lf between records would make is much easier to read. Also Alt F3 is exceedingly close to Alt F4. A couple of times I have shut Sigil down instead of viewing the toc. |

Valid URI
Sigil 4.0 beta 3 reports the following errors from Flight Crew although Sigil 3.4 accepts them with no problems.
Code:
The <item> element's "href" attribute value is "Text/How He Left the Hotel.xhtml", which is not a valid URI. The <item> element's "href" attribute value is "Text/Many Waters Cannot Quench Love.xhtml", which is not a valid URI. |

Response to Issue #824
Quote:
Since looking in detail at the toc.ncx, it would seem that the only changes that can be made is to the TEXT entry and the sequence. Changing src would seem wrong but can be done. Trying to use to force an indent doesn't work. Also version 4.0 loads the first files (title page, and table of contents) out of sequence and when I move them into proper sequence a "push" of the Generate toc button is needed to update the toc.ncx. It would seem that a better approach for the user is to have a "do not update toc" button and otherwise use full auto update. |

Create an issue and attach the epub for which the content files are loaded out of sequence. |
