Sorting small ebooks in the library | Change the file size column to KB?
Hello,
I have a lot entries in my calibre library. Although the page count go from 2 pages up to 300 pages, the file size column rounds them to "<0.1" or "0.1" MB. Most of them are .odt-files. Is it possible to change the displayed file size from MB to KB, so i am able to sort them? Alternatively, is there another way to sort them, via quantity of words, or pages? Thanks!

But regardless of the display, it still should sort properly Click the title of the Size column a finer size value is displayed on the 'I'(nformation) panel |

It indeed does, thank you!
Still, it would be great for me to have these informations in the columns somehow. |

You might look at the Count Pages PI (if your files are EPUB)
IMHO Page (or word) count is a better indicator than file size. Many other things (besides span messy code) affect file size |

Maybe the calibre UI translation (german instead of english) is in the way, too? This is so un-intuitive... Last edited by Kartoffelr; 04-12-2015 at 05:54 AM. |
