There is no such thing as original or intended viewing size when it comes to ebooks read on a computer, but if you would like multiple columns then go into the viewer preferences and change the Text layout in paged mode. Page mode is enabled/disabled via the yellow scroll in the top right corner of the viewer.

Complex
searching is something calibre excels at. In regards to your clicking tags, hold down the control key when clicking a second tag. If you want to match All or Any go down to the Alter Tag Browser option at the bottom of the tag browser and choose appropriately. Still confused simply hit the icon to the left of the search bar to bring up and Advanced search dialog.
Here is one search I have for a VL of mine.
Code:
((((not tags:"=working") and (not tags:"=Adult" and tags:"=Non-Fiction"))) and (tags:"=Biographies & Memoirs"))
Mix and match
and / or as you see fit.

However I think it would be great to have an option to include several parts in one book if automerge failed (which is the case for all HTML). Currently there is not even an error message that automerge failed, the initial book is just overwritten. Calibre could show a pop-up for multi-parts books then the user double-clicks on them. This could be interesting for all formats where automerge is not possible / useful.

Automerge does not merge separate books into one book. It merges different book formats (pdf, epub. mobi) of the same book into one book entry.
If you have multiple html files that should be part of a single book put them all in one directory and create a
html index that points to each in order they belong and drag the index file to calibre. All of the separate files will be gathered up ito one zip file and treated as an individual book.

Glad to have you aboard.
