Truthowl · 08-09-2015, 10:42 AM

I've used calibre for years and I love it. However, I have a long standing problem I don't think is currently possible to remedy. But maybe someone knows how to do this?

In the UI, the section for the Tag Browser. If I select Author, it drops down and lists all the authors underneath the tag Authors. But that list is not alphabetically ordered. So trying to find the author "Jim Butcher" for instance, can be fairly difficult if you have a lot of authors in your collection. Now I know I can use the search bar to limit what I'm looking at in the book list. But what I want is a quick and easy way to list my authors. Can I somehow change the order of the tag Authors in the Tag Browser?

Any constructive help would be appreciated.
