sorting by two columns
Is it possible to sort my library by two columns? that is, within the TBR list, let me know which books are not on my device? (sort by TBR first, then within that, by On Device)

Sure - just click on the column headers in the reverse order that you want the sort. Eg, I like seeing my library sorted by author, and by series within author, so I click first on "Series", and then on "Author". Simple as that.

HarryT's answer is correct.
Think of the prior sorts as providing Biased to following sorts.

Sorting TBR first put books in the order you wish to read.
Then sorting on 'On Device' shifts the Not OD listed to the top, leaving those pretty much in the RL order

hm. It sometimes works for me and sometimes not - I must not be clicking on them quickly enough sequentially.

now that i know how it's supposed to work, though, i'll play with it some more. Thanks!

Doesn't matter how quickly or slowly you click. There's no time limit. Wait half an hour between clicks if you want - it should still work just the same.

Do something else in the library - click on a row - do anything. It's only consecutive clicks on a column header that affect sorting.

You shouldn't feel stupid. I've been using calibre for just over a year and this one totally slipped by me.

I only realised yesterday that you could rightclick on the icons in the menu.

I kept thinking how lame the tiny arrows were and that they were graphically too small and didn't highlight when hovering or clicking etc - and now I don't have to use them!
