calibre 0.6.0 released! - Page 5

Great new version! All very, very nice changes. Thank you!

And a question: now I've been using it for some days, and it kept happening yesterday when I was editing info in the main table, that the edit window would pop up. Right now, by trial and error, I realised that 'e' is a shortcut for the edit window, and when I type a word with an 'e' in, in my normal (fast) speed, somehow Calibre recognises it as me typing in an 'e' and not - for example 'general' in the tag field. Is there a way to disable shortcuts? I could also use a tag without any e's at the beginning of the word of course

I'm using 6.0 (on OSX)

Are you saying that while editing tags, pressing e causes the edit metadata window to open?

pshrynk · 07-27-2009, 12:14 PM

Just downloaded it and it looks feature filled. Does it translate LRF to Mobi?

Ea · 07-27-2009, 12:14 PM

Yes, if I type very fast. At least when I type 'general'

Edit: I can see the 'g' has has been recognised, but then the edit window opens and leaves only a g in the tag field

Hmm doesn't happen for me. Do you have some sort of special input mapping on your keys? like for support of non english characters

Nope it doesn't convert LRF.

Hmm, just tried now; happened 7 times out of 10 - if I started with an empty field (i.e. if I just overwrote something it didn't happen - tried that 5 times)

I use a Danish keyboard, and the 'e' is placed in the top row: tab - q - w- e- r t ... I guess it has support for non-english characters (obviously) æ, ø, å, and some of the special characters are placed a bit different from English. I use the standard language settings that came with the computer (iMac)

You mean if you type ina na empty field it does not happen but if you edit an already filled field it does? I suspect this has to do with the completion in that case.

To be more precise - if I delete the text in an existing field and click away, and then start over, so to speak, in that field, then it happens. But not when I tried to overwrite an existing text string.

I don't know if it helps, but when I just click 'e' while in the main table view, the edit window opens, everytime. I assumed this is intentional since it's 'e' for 'edit', but now I wondered it is.

kovidgoyal · 07-27-2009, 01:55 PM

Yes 'e' is the shortcut for Edit you can see the other shorcuts by right clicking in the main window (ctrl-click on Mac I guess)

Ea · 07-27-2009, 02:29 PM

Thank you. I wanted to be sure. You can actually right click on a Mac now, too - even with an Apple mouse. The one button mouse was never really a great idea.

I'm at work right now, but when I get home tonight I'm willing to throw a copy of 0.5.14 out on rapidshare for those (like me) having mega-problems with the new release...

FizzyWater · 07-28-2009, 12:57 AM

I uploaded the Windows 0.5.14 version to rapidshare at:

http://rapidshare.com/files/26086122....5.14.exe.html

Apparently, it can only be downloaded 10 times before being deleted...

I've become really happy with my dropbox account, from where I can also share files publicly or by invitation and you don't need an account for being able to download. Upload is fast, and I think download is fine, too. And it's perfect if you need to work on files from several computers. And you get 2 GB space for free.

(plus 250 MB extra if you use my invitation link

)
