May I make two suggestions for Calibre?
Firstly, I would like to say how much I love your program. It has really enhanced my enjoyment of my 505.
Anyway, two things that irk me slightly. 1) When I click 'remove book' from the main library page, it should ask me if I simply want it removed from Calibre, or to be deleted from my PC. As it stands, I can't click this button without going to fish the files out of my recycle bin. 2) When clicking 'send to device' it should pay attention to what your preferred file format is. So it should either a) send that format as default or b) that file format should be top of the list. I just think this button should have a "one click" feel to it. |

I use it to convert between formats, and I would like an option for it to keep the original file name when it outputs a converted file

feature request should be tickets, or they will get lost.

Hi, did you make a feature request for item 2 already? I'd also like to be able to have my preferred format as the default for what gets sent to my device.

Having the output format also dictate the device settings will cause two sources of confusion. It will override the format settings specified for the device. Also, It will have to be silently ignored by devices that do not support that particular format. A number of users use calibre with multiple people and devices. The current setup allows for them to have pre-device settings to their taste. |

EDIT: okay i looked at the documentation and I can't find anywhere how to change the order in which Calibre sends the formats to the device? Last edited by Amalthia; 12-09-2009 at 01:21 PM. |

Thanks! I'll try this when I get home. I went through the manual and I couldn't find this in the FAQ. Would I need to make a ticket to have it added to the manual? I'm thinking I may not be the only person with this question?
