Reading View
5 Topics[Solved] Make Reading View button available on All web pages and websites. Make it a Fixed button
Currently the Reading View button shows up only on some article pages, while it should appear on all web pages, article or not. at the time i'm writing this Edge is on" Version 77.0.216.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit)" Google Chrome Canary has similar feature called distilled web page contents and it is a fixed button next to the URL and you can use it on any web page, be it a YouTube video, a forum or article. that's really convenient. p.s for those who don't know how to enable Reading View in Edge Canary, you should do it through here: Edge:/flagsSolved22KViews4likes8CommentsFeedback and report on Immersive Reader in Edge Canary Version 83
There are some preferences that are Remembered and there are some preferences that are Reset/Lost after Immersive Reader mode page is refreshed or when user quits and goes into Immersive Reader mode again. Preferences that are remembered: Read Aloud voice Text Preferences => Text Size Text Preferences => Page Theme Text Preferences => Spacing Preferences that are Lost/reset: Reading Preferences => Line focus Reading Preferences => Picture Dictionary Grammar Tools => syl.la.bles Grammar Tools => Part of speech (all of the options) Grammar Tools => Show labels Here is a demo video: https://streamable.com/17rz4 Please set all of the preferences to be remembered and never be lost once user configures them. it'd be perfect if they could also be synced with "settings sync" in Edge.Solved2.3KViews1like7CommentsAnother Great Edge classic feature has been added to the new Edge, - Text Preferences

The Immersive reader mode button appears on this page: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/scripting/samples/changing-computer-state?view=powershell-7 but it doesn't appear on this page: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/microsoft-edge-policies both websites are Microsoft docs, articles, perfectly made for Immersive reader mode. I'm using Edge insider Version 80.0.341.0 Canary 64-bit My suggestion: make it a fixed button so it will be there for all web pages.1.8KViews0likes6Comments[FIXED] Reading View Not working in Microsoft's own websites!
UPDATE: Got fixed in the last update. Here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/install/hardware-and-software-requirements-2019 when i click on Reading View's book icon, it gives me this: turned off other extensions to make sure they are not interfering with the page load It gets more weird when on another Microsoft Docs article page the Reading View button doesn't even appear, like here for example: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/SharePoint/hybrid/plan-sharepoint-server-hybrid but when i choose another article from the left bar then the button appears and it works. there is definitely a bug in Edge canary that needs a fix. again it won't hurt if you just make the reading view a fixed button instead of trying to recognize the page content first because right now the detection method is not working well.Solved1.2KViews1like1Comment
