I was modifying a book in Sigil, and updated the cover image. I typed in the name of the new file and it displayed fine in Sigil, the F7 check cheerfully said "No problems found!"
It looked fine in Calibre's reader on my PC.
I sent it to someone who loaded it on his iPad and iPhone, who told me that there was no cover, either in the "bookshelf" or when reading it in iBooks.
After a few days of frustration and casting around to diagnose I eventually used the ePubCheck site and it told me that the cover image was not found. After reading its messages a few times I finally noticed that the file it wanted was cover.jpg. The filename was Cover.jpg.
Windows is insensitive to filename case, so either works on Windows, but iOS does care.
Now I'm aware of the problem, and have installed the ePubCheck plugin, I won't be fooled again, but Sigil should not be less strict than common devices that read ePubs.
So, can Sigil be made filename case sensitive as well regardless of the platform it's running on?
