I've successfully tweaked Calibre so that it will sort by Author, Series, Title when it first opens. After performing various library management functions I would like it to go back to that default sort without having to re-open Calibre. I realize I could click on title, then click on series, then click on author (column heads) to get this to happen, but that gets tedious when you need to do it multiple times per session.

I couldn't find a preferences setting to add a button for "default sort", so I thought I might be able to save a search. If I search for title="*" and then have my default sort order applied to that search, then it could work (if I can use * for a wildcard).

Does anyone know if it is possible to apply a default sort to a search...or is there a much easier way to reapply my default sort that I'm just not seeing?

Thanks!
You are asking for the same thing I did a few months ago: A natural order sort (date added). Kovid mentioned that this is the same as the {Date} (a timestamp).
