Suggestion: Stop popups from interrupting workflow
I have a problem I am continuously having to deal with. Here is the situation:
I am going through my list of books updating information (from the list view, not in book details view). For example, I am going down the list, clicking on the genre (or other) and typing that in. Then, I click Ctrl D to update, say, the last 5 books from the web. Great so far. So, while Calibre is doing its job of searching the web, I continue down the list, filling in more info. So I am in the middle of typing the author's name, for example, and the popup appears asking me if I want to go ahead and apply the info found on the web. This interrupts my typing and I end up with half an author's name or half a genre name. I have to go back in and click the field to continue. Its even more of a problem if for some reason I lose the view (for example I am viewing only genre "sort"... since I have already started writing over the genre, it dissappears from my sort genre). The fix would be to either have the popup wait until I tab or enter out of the field I am typing OR to not have the popup disrupt my typing in the field (popup appears, I click ok, and I am returned to the field I was editing).
Hope this is understandable. Forgive if its in the wrong place, I couldn't find a suggestions thread.
Thanks for the great program.
