Edit Metadata Individually not working

Previously when I used edit medadata individually, there was a "button" to click when you wanted the update/edit to run. I do not see one now. Have I lost some kind of plug-in or more possibly - did I do something to the "edit metadata" file?

@momspartan - I just noticed in your attached Word file you have

Quote:
My Question is, do I need to just quit using the “individual” edit and use the “Ctrl D” function?
I use both - if I don't like what the new one (Ctrl/D) chooses, then I use the old one (EW) to 'pick and choose'


[Suggestion 1] When "Ctrl/D' is used on many books it would good if Calibre would offer the option to create a marked list of books for which the download was rejected - then one could use it to do downloads via the individual edit function. Or if the Temp Marker PI is installed then give the user a way to access it from the review dialogue.

[Suggestion 2]Have all the current book details displayed when reviewing the material downloaded. The Book Details (what I see with Show Book Details) could be displayed in a collapsible panel on the RHS of the Download Review panel. It would be read only, i.e. there would be no active links for Author, Idents, Formats etc.
