Caliber and sorting by format

Student1 · 03-23-2009, 03:40 AM

I was wondering if its at all possible to add an extra tab to sort by the formats you have. Sure many books have many formats but personally i have a lot of pdf to hunt down and either remove or try to convert. Any way of doing this with the current version? If its still not implemented a good way of doing this would be to display the formats that are unique first by alphabetical order and then the multiple formats.

Anyway just an idea

Or you can click on the little luggage tab looking thing at the bottom right... that will open a window on the left side where you can refine your search by author, formats, tags... and there is even an option for the search to match all your criteria or only some of it... You can also make it exclude a format if you want

Related question: is there a way to search for books that have a (specific) rating?

sort on rating

Yeah, that I understand -- it would be nice to also be able to query/filter using the rating field (I use it as a read/unread flag), and wanted to make sure I wasn't missing a way to do that.
