Oh, this. It's more like to say "This chapter has many parts.". And if I would make it like "Chapter One, Part One" it would look little strange. And novels have most of the time an extra site/page for the "Chapter One Whatever", so I do it only with chapters that have more than one part.

I thought about it already. But, ... I'm prety lazy at the moment. I will do it in a week or two.
And I looked what they done there. They just used Anchors. It's pretty easy to do so. And the only way to go the needed part of the text. And I think you know it, but just in case if you want to jump to other part that is on another .xhtml, use "[name_of_the_file].xhtml#[anchor/id_]". Calibre uses it to create a TOC.

No. I make everything in normal editor like "LibreOffice" or "Word" than save it as .odt (Word has big problems with .odt, so if you do it with word, better convert the .doc with Libre to .odt). Caliber >>> ePUB.
And after that I edit them with Sigil. Be aware if you looked into HSDxD then you will see that it creates pretty much unnecessary code. And if you have any problems than "Have Fun". But after 1 hour or two you will understand how Calibre does everything.
But if you want to make it esear for you to create them in Sigil just go to the full text page of a novel, right mouse click and choose "view source code" or something like that.
there it is clean code with some links that you can remove pretty easily. And after that make in the css something like
Code: Select all
p {
color: #000;
display: block;
font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
font-size: 1em;
line-height: 1.2;
margin-bottom: 0.212cm;
margin-left: 0;
margin-right: 0;
margin-top: 0.169cm
}
to format the text in <p></p>. I hope that is the code is right.
