MobileRead Forums - View Single Post - suggestion: tag groups should use Calibre tag hierarchy

peaceridge · 05-25-2015, 03:07 PM

Question about hierarchical tags - I may be missing something here and what I'd like to do is probably not doable anyway. However, just in case: is there a way to look at tags like
"Fiction.
Fiction.Mystery
Fiction.Mystery.Police"

Tapping on Fiction would show within the book column all fiction books sorted by the rest of the tag? So I would see all the Fiction books listed in order as Fiction (without extra tags then Fiction.Mystery, then Fiction.Mystery.Police etc? I don't want to look at each group individually.

More cumbersome, but doable if someone can tell me how to use AND - if I could search for tags=Fiction AND tags=Fiction.Mystery AND etc. Obviously I'm not using the correct syntax as I can't get it to work. Thanks for any help.
