Hi. I posted a possible bug and the main developer said it was the expected behaviour, but I'm not convinced it should be.

The case is that when I filter something on the library window display (i.e. a specific author, a certain valoration, a tag,...) and I change to the ereader window, it shows a blank window: no books at all, although there should be some of them (the not-filtered ones). When I return to the library window and de-select the marked filter, and then re-return to the device window, all of the books are there again, of course not filtered.

What I think is that, if the filter works truly on all levels at the same time, the device display should show the filtered books, not a blank window, right?

Doesn't it happens to anyone else?

Regards.
