[mobile-devel] Bug?

[Daniel Owens]

Testing the most recent beta of SwordReader, I am enjoying the added functionality of commentaries and dictionaries. I was running the beta on an iPaq hx1200-something (can't remember) with WM5. Previous versions never seemed to have problems with the flick and scroll, but while listening to a sermon on Genesis 24 this morning I turned on the footnotes and cross-references for the ESV, and periodically the display would freeze while scrolling. I only noticed it when crossreferences were enabled.

Ken,
That is very encouraging. I will look into getting the characters to 
read in the correct direction. It may not be in the next release, but 
who knows.
