1) Why does Calibre not save the preferences in "replace soft scene break" if, for example, I use * * *? Or anything else. No matter what I put in there that field is always blank when I go to convert something.

2) If I leave the "replace soft scene break" field blank and my book uses blank lines for soft scene breaks, will Calibre leave those blank lines? Note that under look and feel I use both "removing spacing between paragraphs" and "add blank line between paragraphs"

3) What heuristics does Calibre use to detect a soft scene break? I just read a book where I replaced soft scene breaks with * * *, to see how it would work, and it only detected about half of the scene breaks. The rest were completely unmarked. The book used a blank line between scenes.

Thanks!
If you recently set that in preferences AND you have previously converted that book, you are using the books saved settings.
Click restore defaults on that books conversion page.
